A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
I remember reading something somewhere quite some time ago that seemed like a great and simple idea, but I have never tried it.
This old timer used a round shafted Philips screwdriver and inserted it into the rear sprocket so that it was between the chain and the sprocket. I don't remember the...

I would highly recommend a BMW R1200RT in the 2010 vintage.
I am not alone, by a very long shot, in claiming this is probably the best long distance Sport-Touring bike ever made.
I had mine for 36000 miles and got and overall average of 50mpg here in SoCal.
A really nice feature of this bike is...
I just ordered my first set of replacement tires after 3 years and 2 months and 8800 miles. I can probably get another 1500 miles from the front tire. I'll give that some thought once I get them.
I bought an exact OEM sized set but opted for Continental's Conti-Motion tires. Total cost was...
I was stuck the same way a while back and had to call AAA.
The driver used a 3/8" x 4" brass bolt for his positive clamp to grab on to, which he just held against the battery + terminal.
The negative jumper was clamped to the frame.
I now carry such a bolt in the frunk at all times.
Since you got THAT many miles on your manual shift NC, I wonder if the DCT version will get closer to double that because it has 2 clutches
so theoretically, each clutch is only doing half duty compared the your single clutch.
Since I don't have to commute with my bike I never needed an outdoor sun/weather cover but in the garage, just to keep the dust off, I use an old king sized flat bed sheet draped over the bike.
BTW, you must live in a different part of SoCal than me (near Disneyland) because the average SUNNY...
WOW
That many miles and with a 66mpg average. Unbelievable.
How do you have enough free time to rack up that many miles??
Did you retire from your teaching job?
I have been riding my 2013 DCT for just over 3 years now and under normal riding, it quietly clicks as it shifts.
The only time I get any clunking is if I should abruptly throttle off as I am right at a shift point.
Somewhere on this forum is an instruction sheet on doing a reset of the DCT...
The most satisfactory results I ever got was back about 4 years on a 1500 mile trip thru the Sierra Nevada mountains of central California, including Yosemite and Tahoe.
I had a GoPro mounted on top of my helmet with a very thin USB power cord running up under my riding jacket to power the...
I found that for me, the easiest way to break the bead is a large (8-10") C-Clamp. Just position it so both sides are on the bead and up against the rim and start to screw the clamp down. I put a piece of Duct Tape on the rim at those two points to prevent any scratching.
The bead WILL break loose.
