Why does my motorcyle backfire when starting?

I have a 1981 Yamaha Virago. It was running good until I changed the oil. It sounded totally different and would not accelerate very well at all. I had to have the throttle all the way back to get it out of first gear. I drained some oil out in case i had over filled it. Now it won’t start and back fires when i try to start it.

Change your plugs that should do it.

Can a Los Angeles Sheriff on motorcyle give tickets in highway violators?

I was given a ticket for crossing a double yellow line in HOV lane on 105 freeway along with 3 other cars. He was waiting about half mile down the road when he flagged us to stop to side of the freeway and was given tickets. However, he’s a Los Angeles Sheriff on motorcyle. Is he allowed to give tickets on highways and flag down a group of motorists all together to write up tickets? How can I get out of this?

The LA County Sheriff generally does not enforce traffic laws, but they have every right to and will if observing a violation. You broke the law, and got caught. You can plead guilty and explain why you absolutely had to cross the line and had no other choice. Or you can plead innocent and make the Sheriff show up in court which has a 50/50 chance of happening.

What Are some Questions that could be on a motorcyle permit test?

Ok, Well im 14 and taking a motor bicycle permit(a moped test) and ive been stressing on what i need to study. If any of you have took one or any ideas they will be extremely appreciacted, Thanks!

Their should be a book at your local DMV specifically for the motor bike test. Also included in these tests and questions from the actual drivers exams. At least that’s how it is in Ohio. If you dont fully study both of these books from front to back you wont pass.

Their are questions about the allowed blood alcohol content level, how far you can stop from a school bus, How to ride in a staggered stance with groups, how to turn corners, evade obstacles, deal with the rain and traffic ect ect.
I took it at 15 and failed 2 times before i passed, i passed the motor vehicle test the first time. Motor bikes a lot harder.

What to use for added padding on motorcyle seat?

My butt burns from the seat being so hard, whats the best solution for long rides?

Gel padding is very nice on the buttocks….If Dr scholls made seats, I’d get one! hahaha!

You can get gel inserts for seats….they arent expensive. Very comfy.

Also look into Corbin seats, they are also very nice.

______________________
LETRA (LYRICS):
He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots
And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back
He had a hopped-up ‘cycle that took off like a gun
That fool was the terror of Highway 101

Well, he never washed his face and he never combed his hair
He had axle grease embedded underneath his fingernails
On the muscle of his arm was a red tattoo
A picture of a heart saying “Mother, I love you”

He had a pretty girlfriend by the name of Mary Lou
But he treated her just like he treated all the rest
And everybody pitied her ’cause everybody knew
He loved that doggone motorcycle best

He wore black denim trousers and motorcycle boots
And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back
He had a hopped-up ‘cycle that took off like a gun
That fool was the terror of Highway 101

[Instrumental Interlude]

Mary Lou, poor girl, she pleaded and she begged him not to leave
She said “I’ve got a feeling if you ride tonight I’ll grieve”
But her tears were shed in vain and her every word was lost
In the rumble of his engine and the smoke from his exhaust

Then he took off like the Devil and there was fire in his eyes
He said “I’ll go a thousand miles before the sun can rise”
But he hit a screamin’ diesel that was California-bound
And when they cleared the wreckage, all they found

Was his black denim trousers and motorcycle boots
And a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back
But they couldn’t find the ‘cycle that took off like a gun
And they never found the terror of Highway 101
