    bent a valve a push rod AGAIN!

    So those pics are helpful. That amount of gunk indicates a few things - and not having the engine in front of me makes it a bit difficult to confirm anything... but I would say that this is likely a faulty valve stem seal. Is the second pic an intake or exhaust valve? Either way the back of a...

    bent a valve a push rod AGAIN!

    There's a reason I'm not buying the carbon buildup theory for your first bent valve. (Not saying your mechanic lied, just saying it is near impossible).Carbon buildup is usually caused by an extended time running with really bad fuel, or really really really rich (I'm talking its spent its life...

    bent a valve a push rod AGAIN!

    I would find it miraculous if your bike "got so hot it baked the oil onto the valve springs". This would also be hot enough that it should have completely clogged your oil pump, turned rubber gaskets into hard plastic mess, and probably melt a few other things as well. In other words it should...

    GPR willing to build a steering stabilizer for the Ulysses!

    Hell I was in CA earlier this month (story coming, don't worry!) but now I'm about 3000 miles away. If they were willing to ship the thing back and forth I'd be all over that!

    Hey guy what do you you think about the hydraulic clutch kit

    I have this mod on my bike - installed prior to my cross-country trip. Worth the price, in my opinion. I would say the force to pull is similar to cable but it is immeasurably smoother and consistent. In traffic, and I can't explain why, I think the holding force is less. In other words it's...

    XB12XT owners manual

    Hey guys - very helpful posts! I really want to thank you guys for sending that info. I can get my bike setup correctly now and that 09 manual is so much different than the 08 I'm kind of shocked! Adding reps to both of you!

    XB12XT owners manual

    Again - 2008 XT *chart*. 2009 is definitely different and the 2008 service manual doesn't have that chart, the link to badweb's document has part of the chart cut completely off. I am not vain about my weight but I want the *chart* as I'm running with weight in the bags and a backpack, plus...

    XB12XT owners manual

    The suspension chart in that link is chopped off. And I've checked my service manual - cannot find the suspension setting chart anywhere.

    XB12XT owners manual
