    Stripped final gear case filler bolt hole

    Went to change my final gear oil and when I tried to torque down the filler bolt I discovered the hole is stripped (not the bolt unfortunately). What would be the best/easiest fix? Should I remove the pumpkin and take the whole thing to a machine shop?

    3 Gallons Castrol Semi-Synthetic Oil

    Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, now they have 3 gallons for $50! Just bought 3 more gallons. I think I'm set now for 3 years. (don't buy anymore oil, don't buy anymore oil, don't buy anymore oil).

    Olympia Airglide 3 Pants Size 38 (XXL)

    They are full length. I'm also a 34/35 inseam. I never bothered to get them hemmed since they were just about right for the length.

    Olympia Airglide 3 Pants Size 38 (XXL)

    Pants are in great shape, no rips, tears, stains, ect. Waterproof liner included of coarse. About 6 months old, seen maybe 500 miles in the saddle. Color is "pewter" (dark grey). Bought these because they are the only mesh pants I could find that are 500 Denier Cordura and not polyester. I...

    garmin question - SD card to load music?

    I found this helpful. If you have a Mac, even better. I don't, but a lot of the info still applies.

    Mirrors

    Stock mirrors gave me 50% visibility. FZ1 mirrors gave me 100% visibility. I don't know how or why you guys use your stock mirrors. Could be a consequence of my manly man shoulders I guess.

    New Bluetooth TPMS Coming Out...

    Installed my FOBO sensors over the weekend. From Sunday until today (Friday) I am down 1 p.s.i in the front and 2 p.s.i in the rear. I have not moved the bike since install. I fear this farkle may be too good to be true. I will recheck my install but I fear these do indeed create a slow leak...

    Garmin Zumo 660 good deal at Amazon

    I snoozed on the last sale on EBay when they were selling for $380, not this time. Now, can someone teach me how to use it?

    Garmin Zumo 660 good deal at Amazon

    Great find! I ask this as both a real question and a statement, why do I care if they are making room for a new model? If a new model has newer options but cost $600, why not buy the old model for about half the price? Will they continue to support an older model?

    New Bluetooth TPMS Coming Out...

    Ordered a set of the FOBO. For only 99 bucks I figured its worth a shot. If they last more than a year I will consider putting in the T stems.

    3 Gallons Castrol Semi-Synthetic Oil

    Amazon has 3 gallons for $54 after $10 instant rebate. I think I pay $28 per gallon at the dealer. 2 day free shipping for Prime members. Please don't chime in with what oil is better than another. If this is the oil you use, which it is for me, good chance to save some money...

    What's the Best Replacement Front Fork Springs--Gen I?

    To confuse you more I have a set of Gen II stock springs with 8K miles on them off an 06'. Make me an offer and they are yours. I don't know what they cost new. Having said that, I would go with something aftermarket. My front end was squishy with the stock springs but I'm 250lbs.

    Suspension Recommendation

    I bought a Penske double adjustable 8975 for $612 from KFG Racing (GP suspension). If you can wait 6 months (I know, that's a really long time) they do a black friday sale which is 25% off all parts AND labor. I did a valve kit up front, Penske in the rear, with installation I paid $1450...

    Honda Moly 60 Paste no more?

    Prior to owning a motorcycle I thought grease was grease. Can I use the same grease to lube driveshaft, drive splines, kickstand, etc. etc.? Does it really matter? Also, can I use brake cleaner to clean the old grease out or will that hurt something? Who knew it would be so hard to slap some...

    Honda Moly 60 Paste no more?

    Getting ready to grease the spline drive and most places have discontinued the Honda Moly 60. I see a few places on Ebay have it but probably not for long. Amazon.com says it has been replaced with a "Honda Moly M77 assembly paste? Not sure if that would work. Seems like a pretty important...

    Does your unit have lifetime maps? Do all the 660's have lifetime?
