you can see the hub (entire wheel) moving a lil bit, but the hub is not moving seperately from the rim when i wiggle it. its def the bearings.

(its nice to be on a forum where people actually talk about bikes, huh?) haha

Yea it is a catch can. I have two... one is a gatorade bottle :D

The front sprocket is held in plate with the place and two bolts. If you think about it, it is not possible for the sprocket to back off with the plate and two bolts. Thats just how it works

awesome thanks man thx!! yah it did go downhill a lil bit. im steel wool'n everything to shine it all back up. like the bottom of the forks, the levers, rims, sprockets, rotors, etc... thats why its takin so long, im makin everything look good again. steel wool'd the motor too!!

the sprockets i have are 420 sprockets. your chain looked like a 220 chain.

the chain you had still looks good, just needs cleaned, but i want an o-ring chain for the supermoto.

as long as it was stolen from officer white!!! hahaha

what can i do to clean those holes? im gonna have to drill em all out.
