Topic: breakk problem
Message: My 2000 bulletts front break is totally locked up. I
cant even spin the front wheel by hand. Any ideas/reccomendations? Cause/cures?
Any help is appreciated.
Travis
For what ever reason the brakes
have probably locked up the wheel. The most likely cause is rust if the
bike has been sitting for some time or has been stored for longer than
a winter. I would suggest that you take it to a service center.

Topic: oil consumption
Message: I ride the bullet fairly hard. sometimes 150 miles a
day at 60 miles an hour. i use synthetic oil and have attatched the duckbill
crankcase breather. i have also upgraded to the oversize oil pump set
and installed the 18 tooth countershaft sprocket. the bike seems to run
better with every mile i put on it and the addition of the duckbill breather
has greatly lengthened my service intervals on the drive chain however
in a day of riding the aformentioned speed and distance i can expect to
lose/consume 4 to 8 oz of oil. does anyone have a similar experience?
i am even considering using a longer dipstick to see if the consumption
continues past this point or if it finds a level. Is there anyone else
in the US that rides the bullet hard like this?

Topic: Bikes with sidecars
Message: Need input on performance figures with sidecar.
lbarheath1@aol.com
You can expect about 60mph TOPS with a sidecar loaded
up. It is about the weight of 1/2 a bike so it does create more drag.
They shine in town or on slower secondary roads and are a lot of fun.
They also draw a crowd anywhere you go with it. We've had customers go
cross country with them, but I think that is pushing the envelope
