Horrible maintanence tips from Tim

Kitten Tooth wrote: If you battery has a low charge and it only "clicks" when you hit the starer button, Take the terminal that would normally be for the negative post and bolt it to the positive post. When you move the positive terminal to the negative, you should see a good spark when you touch the wire to the post. Let it sit like this for a few hours and any residual charge that was left in the harness with be directed to the battery. This works every time.

Ahaha! :woohoo:

Make sure to do this in a nice air tight location, and dont forget to enter with a lit cigarette in your mouth! :blink: :laugh:

Be sure to use Liquid Nails Construction Adhesive on both sides of every gasket when installing engine covers; we don't want no stinkin' leaks!. Ed

Regrinding the valves often gives new life to old engines and can even add 10-15 hp to new engines but most are intimidated by even the sound of it. Never fear it's not as hard as you think. Go to the local automotive store and ask for valve grinding compound. It's pretty cheap and a little goes a long way. Just a couple of tablespoons in your gas and about 3 teaspoons in your crankcase then run it like you stole it for about 20 miles. This will polish it's innards like a mirror. You won't believe the difference. This tip was brought to you by Acme Engine Re-Builders 201 HiRev Drive Quaker, VT 04245 555-55-555 Ask for Vic :evil:

Oh no

Heres an awesome Spark plug mod that very few people have heard of. Take the plugs out of your bike. Then take a Hand dremel tool and grind out all of the guts in the bottom of the spark plug (center electrode, insulators, and ground strap). Then take a screw and gently thread it into the plug. Make sure the screw is a good 4.5 inches long. thread it in until about half of the screw is sticking out of the bottom. Do this with all of your spark plugs. Re-install the plugs into your motor and give the kickstart a good stomp. This mod only works on models with a kickstart.

My dad,

"If it doesn't start on the first kick, Give up."

so very simple and WRONG!!!

Not even trying with this one..

DUMP SUGAR IN YOUR GAS TANK.

make sure to check your blinker fluid and muffler belt on a daily basis. if your muffler belt is missing and you have ran your motorcycle without it, you will have to get your head and cylinders machined as the valve have been held open in their factory preset position. running an engine like this will bend the valves but you will have no way to tell.
