Question:

Horse Feed Information please?

Why are these ingredients; Garlic Granules, Mollasses, Apple Cider Vinegar,Dolomite and Salt, so good for horses, and what are they good for?

Answer:

No idea, read the link, I am too lazy and not interested.
I not sure about all the ingredients but mollasses for shine coat salt is good for the joints
Basically garlic is good as an anti-inflammatory, anti-histamine, anti-bacterial and anthelmintic, it also aids with fly repelling in the summer time. As it is herbal - its something you cant go wrong with. Molasses is a good supplement to help with fussy feeders, it entices them to eat their food, it also promotes a good shine on the horses coat. Apple cider vinegar again help to entice fussy feeders, it can also help prevent kidney and intestinal stones. As well some say it keeps flies at bay. Salt is a necessity for horses to keep their salt levels balanced. It is very important, particularly in the summer to have a salt lick in the stable with your horse, also if your horse had been hunting or eventing or working particularly hard on any given day, make sure to give him a little boost with electrolytes or something to help with rehydration. As far as Dolomite goes - it is used in supplements and can aid with strengthening and revitalising the horses hooves and just as a general boost. Personally, I would recommend that you use a broad spectrum supplement manufactured by a reputable company and always have a mineral lick in your horses stable. Keep an eye on the amount of water your horse is drinking - sometimes when you give a mineral lick the horse tends to drink a lot more water or finish the lick really quickly, if this is the case, I would recommend a blood test just to check that your horse isnt lacking in some particular vitamin. Anyway, I hope this is of help to you.
BIKERNOJ makes the same point I was going to make: going from a Ninja 250 to an R1 is like entering the New York City Marathon because you tried running around your block this morning. Getting a bike with ergonomics that are more suited to your body type does NOT require you to get a high-displacement engine that's (for right now, not forever of course) way beyond your skill level. R1's happen to be really freaking light, and combined with an engine that's 1000cc, they happen to be really freaking fast, beyond what your 250 can prepare you for. Look into 600's and 650's. Ergonomically, they're the same as liter bikes; it's only the engine that's different.
A newbie rider should NOT get an R1. I was a service manager when they first came out and saw a ton (more than just the R1) all balled up from newbie riders some with less than 100 miles on them. They are for experts only, $hit even a 600 is too much for a newbie. Don't try to jump from a toy bike to the bike of the Gods in one step. As for you current bike it is probably a loose axle or a wheel bearing going bad, that will give you that woozy feeling both in straight line and in corners. While out back make sure the chain and sprockets are good as well.
