  • I need advice from a motorcycle mechanic please!?

    Well my 2006 ducati 800 ss has developed some issues , as I was told ! Well I got it checked out by this mechanic and he told me that my chain has "play" and that it's stretched" I am not to sure what all that means!? Then he mentioned the following issues one : my clutch was going out !( I noticed something funny ! Whenever I would shift to second it would make this occasional "farting sound " ) next he said my valves needed to be adjusted (well one valve?) and some new spark plugs ! Well he also recommended me some octane booster which I'm not sure why!? Well a big incident happened and well we don't talk anymore but the thing is my mufflers were leaking and well I went to a local muffler shop to get them welded ! , well they guy was doing them but then stopped to show me that they were coming out really crappy! Well he suggested straight piping them and I was kinda skeptical about it !? But I didn't know any better and went for it ?! They told me that it was gonna be way louder and that alot of people did it (I'm sure they were talking about cars tho) well here's the problem . My bike has this idle control switch that I use to help start it when it's cold ! Well as it gets warmer I start lowering it and well when it finally stops telling me "Lo" and finally tells me "121 degrees " I put it all the way down and start riding ! Well I try to do that! And my bike just shuts off on me! Even when it's already at 146 degrees ! Does anyone know why? And what can I do to solve this this problem? Can I get it tuned or something so it can function properly with the new pipes? Or did the fact that I put some oreillys house brand octane booster have anything to do with it??? Only like a tablespoon full! ) I need some help here thanks!

  • [Motorcylce] people that are familiar with the Ducati 800 SS(2006)?

    I was wondering why this motorcycle is so quiet ? Or is it just that it's a high rev bike? It could just be the one I'm buying ? Could it be that there could be something wrong with it? When I went to see it yesterday I was hearing the how the bike sounds while he drove it and it was really quite my little brother even said it sounded really weak? But then again we weren't going really fast?

  • I need help im 17 and experiencing thinning hair?

    I think its heredity but i know theres still something i can do right? I've been researching and saw palmetto sounded good so i.went to walmart and bought some 650mg (2 pills) but at the last minute i looked up the side effects (nd then on the bottle it said it was not intended for anyone under 18) some of the side effects were very mild but some sounded very harsh like ''growing man boobs'' and kidney failure i dont know if all this is true one guy posted that ''saw palmetto ruined his life'' but thats just one person it could have been for another reason stuff began to happen to him (side effects) well im wondering since.it says im to young to take those pills , should i squeeze the liquid out from them and use it as some type of shampoo or something , wouldn't it help ? Or has anybody ever taken 'Nuhair' would this be a better choice for me ?

  • What do you think this girl feels? or why do you think she acts like this?

    Okay well sometimes i like doing the an "eye for an eye" thing which i know is wrong in a way, but anyways she was ignoring me a little bit *or atleast i felt she was * so i started to do the same" i talk to her about it *we had good eye contact before this conversation* and try to mean it in a way of saying sorry, so i was trying to tell her all this but i felt she was acting like if she didn't know wat i was talking about.> and then i was getting into the part (i have strong feeling for her) were i wanted to tell her how i felt about her*(even though i feel she knows how I feel already!) but i still want to tell her! so i was already kind of starting till i felt she was loosing interest or more like *trying to change the conversation and get someone else involved in it and loosing a lot" of eye contact",, "so im really just wondering what could be up with this girl ??? is it plain and simple "i just don't want to talk about this maybe cuz i dont feel the same way for you or what???
