- When you take your rear axel out, put it in the tip of your exhaust, this way it wont get dirt all over it.

- when your trying to get your wheel back on and the disc wont fit into the caliper put a flat blade screw driver between the pads and pry them further apart.

- after you've changed your brake fluid, how ever way you wish, hold the lever or pedal on whilst cracking open the bleeder, once the lever (or pedal) goes limp close the bleeder. Do this 4 or 5 times for a firmer feel in braking.

- If you find your pads squeaking, pull them off, put them in your bench clamp and give them a going over with a rotary or normal wire brush, this will also improve brake power.

- Next time you have your plug out, use a hacksaw to cut the electrode off so theres .6mm (whatever) between it and the inner electrode, side ways that is. This will allow the spark to reach the fuel/O2 quicker and more efficiently.

- Use a heat gun or hair dryer to get the white crease marks out of plastics.

got more, but i cant remember em'.
