nah if you're running wide I don't see how fucking up even more by looking in the direction you don't want to go would help.

The best thing for him to would have been to at some point learn how to take a corner.

Why would you shoulder check to get on the joining lane? If drobe had done that he'd run even wider.

>>
>>15265840

Fair enough. I can't really comment on cornering skills as I'm a cruiserfag and as such can't turn, but in so many videos I see a distinct lack of riders looking over their shoulders to check their blind spots and it just irks me.

>>
>>15265846
Personally, I always shoulder check when pulling onto a joining lane because there is always one guy who thinks it's a lane leading to an exit and starts to drift over into it.

But like I said, I concede. When you're running that wide a should check isn't going to make much difference. It's just a shame to see that happen to someone.
>>
>>15265865
depends, how strong are you? know anyone with a similarly heavy bike for you to try picking up?
panniers and a rack will be that much more weight up high to lift when you have to upright the bike

No. Minor crashes (lowsides) won't happen. Instead you'll spin out, high side, get thrown off the thing, or worse. Then once you crash if you're in good enough shape to keep going you'll never get the thing up. Its more of a car than a motorcycle. Not to mention you'll look like the worlds biggest douche, and you'll never be able to lane split. You'd be better off converting an atv for street use than buying that shit.

but in all seriousness, find a good set of metric wrenches and sockets, anything with a lifetime warranty will do the trick

Yeah. I knew where I wanted to go but was lost so I took a shortcut. When I got to the fishing spot I pulled off into the brush and kinda hid my shit a little. Ridig out was sketchy though.

sport bikes are not my forte, neither is EFI, but stuttering is improper fuel:air or lack of spark

I doubt it's not getting air. Fouled plugs would happen all over the place I think. Gotta be fuel, so either pump or injectors. Injectors don't go bad often, fuel pumps go all the time.
