    Unbelieveable oil change

    You guys, so this is how I do it, why it gets so tight is the gasket swells over time causing more pressure on the threads more friction and impossibility of getting off. So to prevent this when you put a filter on oil the gasket with a lil of the enging oil then screw it on hand tight, next...

    Front Brake Ceased?

    it is just a clamp on the bar, so when you were torquing the other clamp you spun in just a little, also make sure you didnt spin the bar at all.

    Is this something to worry about?

    if it is on the bar kinna in front of the mount for the kickstand on the left side then it is extra chain lube from the front sproket, lot of people clean the back one but not the front

    Chain Maintence

    to keep the wheel aligned use a pair if inside calipers or a dial caliper to measure the tension bolts length and adjust till the same. but to do the chain lift bike, loosen axle, adj one side till slack is sufficient, adj other side till aligned, tighten axle. 108 ftlb, check locknuts.

    e15 ethanol

    the problem is the material used to make the gaskets and seals of the engine are degraded by alcohol, when a car is rated for that fuel they are equipped with gaskets of a different material, so 'neutralizer' only slows the effects
