    Sidi Adventure Goretex boots

    Does anybody know who sells "Sidi Adventure Goretex boots" in the lower mainland". I could buy them online, but I would rather pay a reasonable amount more and get them from a Sponsor.

    Can this be fixed?

    I dropped my GS while going up a hill exploring around the Elaho Gaint. The mounts for my Light Bar broke and was wondering if it could be fixed. I spoke to Piaa who made it and they no longer sell it or have parts.

    JB Weld, is this the right stuff?

    I was looking to get some JB Weld. And was wondering if this is the right stuff. The box says that it has to cure for hours and I have read about guys putting right on their Bikes and riding just after. So is this the right stuff and how long to have to wait before you can ride away. Thanks

    KLR Clutch Question

    When the Bike is cold, the clutch play is fine. When the Bike warms up, the clutch / lever has a 1/2 of play, that was not there when the Bike was cold. It's a newish KLR, one year old. Any ideas on what could cause that? Thanks

    Well, I should have my new spring in a day or so and I was wondering if anybody has any tips on replacing the rear shock spring. The bike is an 08 530 exc-r. I was wondering what happens when you do remove the shock, as there will be nothing now holding up the rear of the bike. Thanks Rick
