Re:Share a secret 4 Years, 1 Month ago  
A little something I found out from contacting Loctite, Red Loctite loses it's hold at about 450 degrees F.
I used this working on firearms and it works, might be a little too warm for painted parts

My biggest secret from my buddies, who all ride other brands, is that I have an online technical reference source, backed up by a team of consultants.

Would not trade her for anything. We have raised 3 boys (she has put up with 4), but we have always had similar interests and goals. I have been following your problems with your bike do not give up, because if if we did not have problems we could not help anyone else. I was raised in Texas so I know giving up is not an option.

Best tool in my garage is the fridge! Every time I get a little tense while workin on the bike, I take a walk over. Couple of hours later, it don't matter any more.

Curt, you got a fridge?

Re:Share a secret 4 Years ago  
A little trick for bike cleaning, especially for all of us with whitewalls. I keep a one gallon pump sprayer full of water in the shop. I spray the whell and tire with Ea**e One A to Z cleaner and, with the bike up on the jack, slide a drip pan under the tire and spray it off. Very little mess on the floor.
