Featured Article:
BMW had been making horizontally opposed flat twins for many years, and had always been regarded as well put together machines for long distances, but a little "utilitarian" and lacking that certain something to make them capable of exciting the rider.
At a time when motorcycle manufacturers seemed to be constantly upping the stakes in terms of performance and handling, BMW decided it was time to up their own game. The "5" series had been a typical BMW effort and had sold well in 1973, and had succeeded in getting the motorcycle division back into profit. Now, in 1974, the company had a chance to cement its motorcycling future.
Enter the "6" series. New cranks, new electrical system and roller-bearing rockers were added to what was still an essentially "5" series machine, and this was the first BMW to be equipped with a front disc brake and 5-speed gear box. Top of the range was the 900cc "S". With 90mm pistons and a 70.6mm stroke and larger carburetors than the standard R90/6 version, the "S" had a top speed of 124mph.
Stylistically, the bike was a gem. A beautifully shaped bikini fairing with a standard clock built in, the bike came in a variety of colour schemes, most notably the silver fading to black, often considered the most striking. There was also silver fading to red and yellow/orange. Famous British bike expert LJK Setright described this new machine on its launch as "Possibly the best production motorcycle in the world". Praise indeed.
In fact this bike was not the most powerful or fastest bike of its day. But when you took the sum of its parts, it added up to a machine that could scratch with the best, or take one off on long journeys in complete comfort. A true superbike.

Custom Made Mountain Bikes
Practically everybody wants to feel that they are an individual, and to have their own particular needs met, whether they are a road biker or a mountain biker. So whether you want customization or custom-built, there's a bike out there for you.
If you're thinking of getting a custom-made mountain bike, there are several factors you have to take into consideration.
Frankly, the typical weekend biker doesn't really need a custom-made bike. As long as you buy your bike at a bike store where they can get you fitted properly, you'll do just fine.
But for really serious bikers to whom speed is all - the professionals and the dedicated amateurs, the customized bike is something to consider.
Custom- Built vs Customization
The terminology of "customization" can be confusing. People use the words interchangeably, when really they are two different things.
A customized bike is one that takes an off -the-shelf frame, and puts on the seat you want, a stem of the correct height, a crankset with pedals you can reach easily, etc.
A custom-built bike is one in which the frame itself is built exactly to you measurements.
Basically, when one talks about a customized bike - or rather a custom-built bike - one is talking about the frame. You send along your measurements to the manufacturer - length of foot to knee, knee to pelvis, torso, overall height and they construct the frame with those measurements in mind. They then put on all the rest of the stuff - the high-end tires, the brakes and shifters you require, the crank set, and you're good to go.
All t hat costs money.
An Easy Customization - the Paint Job
There's other ways to customize mountain bikes, of course, though I haven't seen many people do it. Why not give them a stylized paint job like you see on lowriders? Of course mountain bikes used for actually going down mountains (as opposed to those used for cross-country or even road riding) take a bit of a beating and can get scratched up, but for most bikers, a hand-painted mural on their bike can be quite attractive. Why let the lowriding crowd have all the fun? The only reason why I haven't painted my own bike in orange and black tiger stripes is because I know I don't have the skill to pull it off - but if you've got any artistic talent at all, why not go for it?
Bike technology is improving all the time, as manufacturers strive to make the strongest frames out of the lightest of materials. So keep an eye on the review sections of your favorite bicycle magazine, as it will keep you up to date on what is happening in the world of cycling.

i think my crankset is pulled from the bottom bracket on my bike?
when i move the pedals on my bike the chainring wobbles moveing in then away from the bike the chainring itself isnt bent its i think its pulled from the bottom bracket
if i look at where the crank ( arm of the pedal) for my bike meets the bottom bracket (center where both cranks meet) of the bike the crank is slightly pulled out
any help i hear using a rubber mallet can help
This has happened to me twice. If the bike is new, just take it to the shop where you bought it and they should take care of it. If it isnt new, you can fix it. There should be an allen screw on the side pof the crank arm(it holds the crank to the bottom bracket). Tighten the screw and the crank should move in and tighten up against the bottom bracket. I would suggest putting a dab of threadlocker on the screw. If the cranks are "welded" ther will only be one screw and it will be on the non-drive side. If your crank have this, just tighten the sllen screw on the non drive side carefully. I would not use a rubber mallet, but if worse comes to worst use it gently
