    I don't see how any of the oil seals would let water in but not let oil out. I would guess to say that the water came in through the vent on top. It doesn't take a lot of water to make gear oil look messy.

    How are the fins on the condenser? You may need to pull it and the radiator and have them cleaned. Running water through them sometimes isn't enough. You may try blowing through the fins with a blow gun off your air line, just be sure to hit them straight on so you don't fold the fins over. Also check between the condenser and radiator. That's a favorite hiding spot for leaves and other trash.

    It's fake, watch the lines on the road at the moment of impact, they shift showing a splice in footage.

    It's welded shut.

    It's a pretty common failure. I replaced mine with a Work Performance shock. Expensive, but worth it.

    The video is faked. Watch the lines on the road. They shift sideways at the moment of impact.

    Give it to the local law enforcement agency and let them return it.

    I don't think it really matters what you use as long as it's safe for aluminum.

    This Yamaha has an Ipod jack. http://www.starmotorcycles.com/star/products/modelhome/634/0/home.aspx There is even a blue tooth adapter available for it. http://www.starmotorcycles.com/star/products/modelscitemdetail/5/634/2200/19840/2010/1/8417/0/0/detail.aspx

    The MT90HB16 is the same as a 130/90HB16 so it is not as wide as the 150/90-16

    This is the prefab'd Tag-A-Long trailer from Harbor Freight. 600lb capacity. http://www.harborfreight.com/600-lb-capacity-78-inch-tag-along-trailer-66771.html

    ah, ok then, This is a prefab unit. That's way different then what I was thinking it was with my limited experience with HF trailers. Yup, make em replace the axle under warranty.

    I think you should go pick up a pair of straight edges from Home Depot or Lowes or any other hardware store and do both flanges at the same time. On Lowes website, they have one made by Swanson which is 72" long. The Home Depot site shows they sell a 60" edge. They're only $10 each on either site. You would then be able to check the hubs to each other. I think that since it was been welded together that Harbor Freight will not assist with any type of warranty. I think the only way this can be repaired is by heating and bending the axle. Another option, albeit a pricey one, is to remove the axle and leaf springs and convert it to torsion hubs. You could then align each hub to the frame and have a better ride for the trailer. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200335740_200335740

    yup, I use Rotella T, the standard white bottle oil. Many use the newer Rotella T6 synthetic oil. Either one will work.

    I think your tires were overinflated for the load which they were carrying. That would cause the centers to wear out over time and would probably never be noticed, but the wear is being aggravated by the tires pointing outwards so they're actually scuffing the road while they're rolling. I don't think that lowering the tire pressures would have prevented the wear. You may be able to flip or rotate the axle to change the bend in it. I can't recall how the axle is mounted on a HF trailer.

    Just another thought, but you may also want to check the fuel tank vent and if the bike is a California model, the roll over valve.

    Almost sounds like a weak fuel pump.
