    Horrible experience...

    Here's just a short summary of my experience at Stevinson Toyota East in Colorado. Judge for yourself: After negotiating with multiple dealerships all week, I thought I was going to walk away without a new car. The numbers just weren't where I wanted them to be. After thinking I was done, a...

    Rotella T6 in the Accord?

    Wondering if anyone had tried T6 in a '05 or newer Accord V6 that specs the 20 weight? I never run 20, always a 30 weight, but would going up one more to the T6 40 weight be a problem? The great UOA's are tempting me and I already love Rotella for the motorcycle!

    Energy Conserving in a Bike

    So, I know all about EC being not recommended for a wet clutch. I have a couple questions though... 1- Other than clutch slippage potential, what harm can an EC oil do in a bike? Does it harm the clutch system even if you experience no slip? 2- Are the EC oils, take Penzzoil Ultra versus any...

    Mods for Longevity and Fuel Efficiency

    So, I see most guys mod'ing their bikes for more power (generally speaking). Bigger pipes, ram air, even turbos in extreme cases. What kinds of mods would be appropriate if power wasn't the goal but the best gas mileage and most longevity for the engine were the ultimate goal? My bike is a 1300...

    Militec-1

    Anyone use this for their vehicles? I use it for my firearms and love it. I also give this company some serious credit for how they treat our military. Anyway, just curious if anyone has some experiences with this stuff.

    Opinions- selling bike when first born arrives...

    Just curious as to how many people either considered selling, or actually did sell, their bike when they were expecting or planning for their first child. Did it change you perspective on riding? Did it make you allocate money differently? What made you sell or decide to keep your bike?

    10W-40 in Low 40 Degree Weather...

    Without boring anyone with the details of "why", I've had some Honda Dino 10W-40 in my '08 CBR1000RR since I got it several weeks ago(And yes, I've already done one oil change at about 80 miles and am now up to about 160 and ready for the second oil change to a lower viscosity). Anyway, I've...

    Suggestions for '08 CBR1000RR

    There isn't much, at least from my searches, on a good synthetic oil for an '08 Honda CBR1000RR or similiar application. Right now I'm running Dino Honda GN4 to break in the engine etc. I'll probably continue this for several thousand miles (I only have 150 mi so far) until some good break in...

    Sulfur levels in fuel....

    Does anyone know where I could find information on the sulfur content of commercial fuels (i.e. shell, texaco, conoco etc). I have a motorcycle with Nikasil coatings and I've read sulfur is VERY bad for Nikasil. Thanks!

    Honda Accord Head Gasket

    I need some advice...I have a 2005 Honda Accord LX V6 with 16,0000 miles on it. I noticed black carbon build up on the top of the engine where the head gasket would leak exhaust gases. I took it to the dealer and BINGO- blown head gasket! So, my questions revolve around what other damage this...

    GC FOR SALE- Denver Area

    I only use GC in the summer months for my vehicle and I have a ton of it so I thought I'd share the wealth. I've got 59 quarts that I can sell for the price I bought it for this summer(I think it was $4.99 per bottle). And yes, it is all the green German GC we all know and love- it's just too...

    Safe to add Moly to GC?

    I searched and didn't find much....is it ok to add something like Schaeffer's 132 to GC? Also, I'm thinking of going with GC for my '05 V6 Accord after break in and read something about GC possibly not being so great for "Copper-rich" engines like this one. Any ideas pro or con? (other than you...

    Oil choices- 05 V6 Accord

    First, thanks to all of those who post here. I have been reading now for a few months(as an unregistered user) and have learned a ton! After having read many of the opinions and tests on this site, I have basically narrowed my preffered oil down to two brands- Redline and Amsoil. My question is...
