Bel Ray is a quality oil. Use it in the 70's on 750 Honda 50'000 miles and a Suzuki 750 81, 000 miles. till the middle 80's. The only place you could buy itwas at a bike shop back then.

We all drop them sooner or later. Watch the video on how to pick a bike up.With the bike on the sidestand. Grab the bike and stand it up , then lower it back down. Do this a few times and you will feel comfortable with it.
My late wife, like to say to enjoy a new bike. Take out in the parking lot and let it fall over.Then pick it up and ride the hell out olf it. She had an 86 & 99 venture with a total of 110,000 miles on them. She was kill riding the 99.

Glad your grandson will be ok.
Looks like it's going to be a bad year for motorcyclists in Tn.My neighbor is with the THP.
We have lost 10 people on bikes so far this year. 6 singles, 2 doubles.
The singles were crotch rockets. Just tell the young riders to be safe.

I exchange my wheels with a chrome shop in San Deigo. He has Venture wheels already chrome. You pay for the wheels. He sents you the new set . You have seven days to deceide if you want to keep them.If you keep them , you shipp yourset back in his boxes. He pays return shipping UPs.
My bike was down for just mounting the tires.I think they look great.
$725 was the total cost. A good shop and easy to working with.

Glad you enjoy the video and pass it on.The skills should be practice at least once a month.One of the fears, a new rider has is picking up the bike.Never know when that weill come in handy.
When I practice i use slice tennis balls for cones.I use the back lot of our local park on Sundays from 6-7am. Last month, our two motor officers rode up. Those Harely's can turn on a dime.
They were very encouraging about motorcycle safety.Both officers had been riding motors for three months.

i just put on a set off Dunlops 3 on 2000 mm. 210 miles later, they are noisey, seem to ride hard. They do feel quicker in steering.
I 've ran three sets of Metzlers good results. The question is how have your Dunlops 3c done .

We brought two of Steve's first gills in 99 for our two RSV. Thr radiator needs some protection from road ojects. Somehow crack the one on the MM. Order number two. the body shop has repair cracks in center and painted it twice.
i forget it is a cruiser , not a sport bike. But it's fun.
