I retired at 62 in March 2005. Diagnosed with small cell lung cancer in November same year. Went through the whole process (6 three week cycles of chemo, 35 days of chest radiation and 15 days of brai ...

She puts on her dressing gown and goes downstairs to look for him.

A woman was very distraught over the fact that she had not had a date or any sex for over 5 years. She was afraid she might have something wrong with her, so she decided to seek the medical expertise ...

I'd replace them with speed bleeders. I have them on two bikes and really like them for bleeding the calipers and changing the fluid.

I too like old books. When we got married 49 years ago the wife got a Betty Crocker cook book. Twenty some odd years later it was pretty tattered. I searched and got a really nice like new one off Eba ...

Was the engine warm and the trhottle open all the way when you took the compression readings? Makes a big difference.

Damn. Sorry I don't have the K1100 anymore, but I still haunt this forum. I've been a fan of the outspoken and truthful OTG all along.
So I sent a small token via paypal from me to you OTG.

At the age of 66 and health issues, I have come full circle.
My first motorcycle back in 1969 was a 250cc Benelli Barracuda. It had left foot brake and right foot shift. It was followed by a brand ne ...

OK, being assured nothing will fly away, I went to work on the lever. Removed the cover, loosened the allen head bolt. Was a bit hard to turn all the way. When I felt the threads were clear, there was ...

I read something a while back about a sticking front brake lever. My lever sticks a bit and keeps the brake light on until you push the lever forward. The brakes are not on, but the light is. The swit ...

Never got welfare. I didn't even know we were poor, but we were. Never had new clothes, just hand-me-downs. Dad always worked, shoveled coal, worked in a grey iron foundry, rode a bus or walked to wor ...

I really enjoy the photo journals of your rides, wish I was there too.

When you do nice things for people, sometimes you get burned. But don't let that stop you from being the good guy you are. I once sent a near perfect set of front brake calipers for a Honda to a guy i ...

Opened the box with the BMW oil filter and "viola" the crush washer was in the box with a new filter cover "O" ring. Not sure what bozo used the old crush washer and added a second ...

Got around to changing the oil on the K1100 (1996).
The pan drain plug has been leaking a little for some time. When I removed the plug it had two crush washers on it. A small, thin aluminum washer, ...
