2005 Honda Silverwing 600 Questions & Answers
Front Tyre feathering on Silverwing 600
The OEM Dunlop, IRC,Bridgestone, or quality major brand tire should be adequate. I have always had the best life and wear out of my tires by running higher pressure (usually 35-36 pounds ). The ride is harder but it reduces cupping on the tire sides increasing usable tire life.
Low brake fluid
If your fluid level is low and you have no leaks it is a sign that your brake pads are worn out.
Mud stain
depends on what material is stained..
Aluminium stains can be very tricky to get clean if not impossible...some cleaners will also cause a orange/reddish stain wich will not come out unless you use some harsh chemicals to get them out. problem is it's hard to get to those chemicals.
IF you happen to have a truck wash nearby where they wash the big trucks (18 wheelers)take your parts there and tell them to use some brightener on it , it's a chemical that really cleans aluminium.it may cost you a little bit of money but that stuff really works and i haven't been able to find that stuff for private sale anywhere.
the number 2 reasons for stains on the bike are :
1) waiting to long to wash the bike , some types of sand/mud especially the red dirt we have down south here will stain a bike if you leave it on the bike , not only that it dries as hard as concrete and is very difficult to remove , so was your bike ASAP.
2) washing chemicals. Some chemicals / soaps when they are left too long on aluminium will leave stains as it reacts with the aluminium , these stains are almost impossible to get out.
Remove rear wheel
you can order a factory service manual from your local dealership . if you plan to do your own maintenence it is invalueable. too many steps in removal of whell for this forum.
I have a 2004 Honda
You can try charging the battery. It will not hurt anything to try. Batteries generally only last two years or so. It may charge and be okay for awhile or it may charge and not hold the charge for more than a day or two. It may simply not take a charge. I would get a new battery just for the peace of mind. Please rate my answer. Thanks.

sounds like a spark problem ,coils once the carbs load up it takes off and the extra fuel in the cylinder is not fireing so you get a back fire check the plug gaps and make sure it;s the right plug , then check to see what kind of spark you have if it's weak replace the coils
