I've tried JB weld on a few occasions and have never had much luck with it. I've been considering using it to hold one of the tabs that hold my front fender on until I get my new forks back from Race Tech. I'd weld it but me and cast alum don't weld well. I tend to blow it away... FYI RT can straighten bent forks, $75 each. As long as there isn't a "crease" in the tube.

Oh how about duct tape? This is a cobble job I did for a buddy after he rear ended me on International Speedway,the first day in Daytona in 1998. I did this while he was in the hospital getting a cast. The head light is one off a GM car I bought at K-Mart,along with the duct tape,across the street while we waited for him to be released....

No JB Weld on either bike but they are both 07's. I almost put race baffled cans on my R1 and some of the guys were having issues with the rivets on the cans when putting them back together and started using JB Weld to keep the rivets from coming loose which I would have done also...so...."almost". :idk:

Yup, former co-worker of mine did that. Sound awesome, but getting the rivets tight is tough.
