Hey everyone, it's that time of year again, and along with our quick winterizing guidelines below is a link to our newest contest!
This time around we have put together a really cool winterizing package for 1 lucky winner! This will include a Battery Tender Jr, Covermax Deluxe Cover of his/her choice, and a bottle of Startron Enzyme Fuel Stabilizer! Pretty generous we know, but Christmas is around the corner afterall!
The Winterizing contest will end on December 19th, so don't forget to register! Click the red button at the bottom of this post to jump you to the contest page!
Prevent costly repairs on items damaged by the elements with these simple steps!
- Stabilize your fuel to keep it from gumming up vitals
Fuel left in the tank can seriously gum up carb components if left too long. Make sure to drain all carb float bowls if you can access them, or turn the gas supply off and run the bike until it cuts off. By keeping a product like Star Tron fuel stabilizer in your tank not only in the winter but year round can cut out unnecessary and expensive repairs later on. Just add the Star Tron to a full tank and you're good to go.
- Change your oil now and in the spring
A quick oil change could save you a lot of hassle down the road. Change the oil now; and then again when it's time to ride. This will get all the condensation out of the motor if any has accumulated and insure all is well inside.
- Time for a full detail and lubrication
Wash, dry, and wax the bike paying special attention to removing the bugs dried onto the paint, windshield, headlights, and fork tubes. Bug guts can do nasty things to paint and metal if left sitting for too long. Make sure to also use a protective wax or polish to get a good coating on your shiny and exposed metal surfaces to avoid corrosion.
Its also a good idea to spray a light coating of a WD-40 like lubricant on all of your hoses, air lines, tubing, and even in the muffler. After spraying a little in the muffler, cap or plug the muffler opening to keep rodents/pests from making a cozy winter home in your ride. Also lube all cables and levers to keep them smooth.
- Keep your battery alive and well all winter
By using a battery charger like the battery tender jr it will help from that old "it's a new year and time to buy a new battery experience" to WOW I can't believe it's ready to go. Studies have proved that batteries that stay on battery tenders "with a automatic on/off float style switch" last up to 50% longer. The battery can stay in the bike with this charger connected.
- Cover it up and keep it protected
A properly fitted cover will keep her dust and scratch free so you don't spend all spring trying to get her ready for the open road. Remember to check your tire pressure and tread depth before storage and now your bike should be ready for a long winters nap!
***This is not an OEM guide for winterizing, just a preventive maintenance blog for do it yourselfers. Many circumstances depending on weather conditions, and time stored may involve much more complex steps. If you aren't comfortable performing these maintenance jobs on your own, please take your bike to a qualified repair facility***

The Dunlop Sportmax motorcycle tire is back in action!
With a small name change dubbing them officially as the Dunlop Sportmax Qualifiers, these bad boys still boast the same tread pattern as their older brother the original Sportmax.
Here's some quick info on them:
-
The Qualifier offers true racetrack-level grip and performance for the street.
-
Rear-tire compound blends three race-developed polymers to maximize grip and warm up quickly in the wet or the dry.
-
Race-derived front-tire profile promotes quicker turn-in and lighter steering while also contributing to a larger footprint at maximum lean angles.
-
Advanced belt design and Jointless Band (JLB) rear-tire construction reduce unsprung weight for quicker acceleration and enhanced steering characteristics.
These should be available in the next week or so in most popular sizes.
This is your chance to bring back a legend to the streets!

Hey everyone!
I found this great how-to post on the www.gixxer.com forum. Say you bought one of our RK chain and sprocket kits, now what? Maybe you don't have the funds to let the dealership do it for you? Save some cash installing it yourself if you have access to the correct tools and the time to get the job done!
This is a great detailed write up with plenty of pictures to guide you along replacing your worn out chain and sprockets on a modern sportbike. The process may vary a little from bike to bike, however the overall process will be very similar.
The forum post covers:
- Fairing removal
- Sprocket removal and replacement
- Master link identificaton/removal/replacement
- Chain removal and replacement
- Chain alignment
I hope you find this useful, and thanks for taking the time to read our blog!
