EGADS! Where did my MPG go?
Yammer Dan replied to Seaking's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Posted to this once. No clue where it ended up? But a lot of things have to do with mpg. A well tuned 1st Gen at 65 to 70 mph can get better than 50 mpg. Thats my story and I'm sticking to it..... -
Ride it like you would a 1st Gen!!!????

Will be the best 12 bucks you ever spent!!! I myself don't like the 404's You can find a set of Kendras for only few bucks more. Rear one is 6 ply tire.

I found some at harbor freight that is Moly-Graph Grease. Extreme pressure long life. Base Type: Lithium 12 Hydroxy Stearate Sea-Lube is Brand name subsidiary of CRC Industries contains molybdenum and graphite to establish fine micron plating on all working surfaces withseand heavy load, water and shock. Anybody know enough to knowif this is as good as the Honda?? Lot cheaper. I'm going to try it and see how it stays in there. -
One for sale near here. or just the equipment. Interesting.

If I ever replace my stator it will be the high output one but not sure what output needs to be to keep things up. I'm Sure there are some electrical guys on here with plenty of info on this.

Have you tried pulling brake lever and tying it in place leave sit overnight with brake on? Sometimes this lets trapped air sneak out of there. -

Castrol 20/50 Used it for years and never had a oil related problem. Just use a good oil and change as you should. Doesn't have to be motorcycle specfic oil. Should have No friction Modifiers. Bottom half of circle on back that contains info is Empty.

I'll go 450!! Sounds like you got something to play with. If 2nd is just starting to act up you may get a few more miles out of it. My 2nd is just starting to go and it won't hardly get the front wheel off the ground in 2nd... Will it Dan??
-
That would depend. Are you riding in the trailer??? 273 lbs....:rotfl: I would go about what has been suggested 30-35 lbs and keep something to measure tread with. If it is wearing faster in the middle drop it a little. Faster on edge raise it a little.
