So prior to this post I have been having issues with my bike('88 vt1100c). I did a thorough checkup and tested all the component of the bike to find nothing wrong.

Hello, I am trying to replace my shift spindle as the owner before me welded the shift linkage back on to the splines and has a lot of play. I purchased a "new" spindle but I was unsure of how in depth this repair is and how to go about it. Does this require the motor to be out of the bike...

Howdy y'all I'm fairly new here. I ride a 95 vt1100, but between COVID lockdowns and some personal life stuff, didn't touch the bike for a long time. Before I left it sitting, the clutch had broken somehow, and of course after sitting, it doesn't want to run. So I figure as I take it apart and...

I took the bike out as soon as I got home from work today. Been looking forward to it all week. Had other things I had to do in the evening all week, but it's been gorgeous all week here, north of St. Louis (Troy area), all week, and I was chomping at the bit. So I jumped on the bike and hit...
