I have a small gs500e (yes its a meme bike)
Anybody know where I can find some SMALL hardcase panniers? They have to be lockable and waterproof because of the many niggers and wops that might steal shit.
All I see are massive 40-50 liter cases that would make my gs500 look even more retarded

That's a lot of rust. How much did you pay for it?
>>13822921
1200 bucks which is like a week's worth of pay for me.
It's totally a shitbike- the thing won't idle at all so I have to either clean or replace it's pilot jet. Other than that though, the motor sounds great, it runs very strong, and it's in decent shape for a bike from 1979. It had the original title too.

>It had the original title too
it's sad that americans see this as a token of quality
>>13823047
On old ass bikes, having the title is kind of rare- and usually when there is a title, motherfuckers like to jack the price up unreasonably. Dunno how you guys across the pond do it, but that's just how it is here in the US. I feel like I did alright for 1200 bucks.

>>13823232
high voltage, sensor one bank one. same code on the new ecm as well.
i get the feeling the first guy put the wrong o2 sensor in the thing which is why is started immediately throwing codes and no one else thought to check it. so i stayed up researching some shit myself.
not sure why they had a module specific sensor but most of that year have a 3 plug ecm but i have the "next gen" unit with 4 plugs
maybe ill pick up an old carbed rig again and make it my riding rig. i miss my old shorty tradesmen with the 440 in it.
>>13822790

>>13823264
>your bike that outperforms mine in every single way is a chainsaw !!!!!!
>>13823251
I mean, any reason you can't just run it for the time being and ignore the code? O2 sensors ain't cheap.
The ADVan is carb'd but it's late 80s carb which means ALL the vacuum lines and it has a vacuum leak somewhere. I just keep putting off finding it.
Now that I'm thinking about it my truck has a vacuum leak somewhere too. Fucking vacuum lines.
Have you done a swingarm service on your XR?

maybe you should get something like that? it probably fits your physique and skills better
>>13823279
easily faster than your 650 then
>>13823258
this probably has better build quality than that fat man's cruiser

>>13823292
it was a bit of an exageration, but its not as slow as you think.
34 hp, 25 Nm torque weighting in at 132 kilos with 14 liters of fuel in it lad :^)

is this the same point you used when telling your parents that you are gay?
>>13823278
holy shit that thing is sexy
>>13823299
But what is the top speed?
>>13823304
>>13823299
>he thinks that is fast
>>13823274
it cant modulate the fuel without that one so i run a good chance of burning out the cat if i run it as is, plus it runs like ass comparatively and lost about 20% of its mpgs
i already picked up a denso (oem) sensor for the next gen module, im just going to put it in later today.
>Have you done a swingarm service on your XR?
im afraid to try and dislodge that pin, plus it still moves smooth and free.
you need help getting your pivot loose?
>>13823296
Yea, my grillfriend wants to start riding actually, she's been looking at the shadow and scout.
Shadows are pretty cute starter bikes
>>13823310
top speed is a lot lower obviously
160 kph, if i really wanted to i could get it to 180 with longer gears but i dont see the point. you cant get to 260 that often anyway can you.
>>13823315
i wouldnt call it slow
>>13823299
That's a touch more hp and 50 more pounda than my 300cc dirt bike
No, it isn't fast. Sorry m8
>>13823296
I think the Victory dude actually has two cruisers but I could be mistaken
>>13823323
i bet if we were to drag race id completely rape you though.also in cornering and top speed
>>13823323
Fuck yea two cruisers!
Cuz why the fuck not
>>13823323
One of the guys with a Victory has a newer Judge, I have a 2007 Hammer with the same paint color
>>13823323
What up CC81PT.
I really like that FJ1200. The dirty and cracked fairings really add to the look of the bike. It's like one of those things that look better when they're dirt and used yaknow?
Anyhow, you were selling it right? Did it sell already?
>>13823335
Victories are sexy, if I didn't get my Indian I would of got one
>>13823328

>>13823321
>160 kph, if i really wanted to i could get it to 180 with longer gears but i dont see the point. you cant get to 260 that often anyway can you.
That's pretty good for a 125, mine only managed to squeeze out 185km/h with 1L more
>i wouldnt call it slow
>it loses from my pigfat underpowered slow behemoth.
>>13823346
But anon, beat up old bikes are the best
>>13823346
i dont know, i live near the touge and i hit it nearly every day, i see guys on 600s and liter bikes everyday yet im way faster in corners.
>>13823328
1) 80% of the horsepower and 80% of the weight [not to mention more torque], it would probably come down mostly to gearing
2) The fact that you are trying to talk up your street bike by saying you'd beat a dirt bike in a drag race should probably tell you something.
>>13823318
I haven't looked at it yet but I'm reading the horror stories so I want to get it done. Apparently on the 650R the bearings aren't sealed or not sealed very well so they like to rust and make it near impossible to remove the suspension bolts. That's what I get for buying a race bike ;_;
evap and O2 codes are the fucking worst. SO many things it could be I don't want to know what the dealer charged you for a new ecu

>>13823358
you have a drill and tap kit dont you? some guy came up with an ingenious setup for his. not sure where the thread went but it was on TT
he drilled he end of the bolt out and tapped it, got a whole stack of washers and a plate to brace it on the frame, put a grade 8 bolt in there than used it to extract the pivot bolt from the hole
>emissions ruin everything

Man that thing would be worth so much if it was original. I wonder if it isn't a factory 21 window, I can't see anyone cutting one of those up for something like that.
I do have a tap kit. I need to make the weird castle tools to pull the pivot nut off. Will work on that this coming weekend as I just started 7 days of 12 hour shifts. No time to do shit but my next check will be awesome.
>>13823380
Pulling the suspension and swingarm apart to regrease/replace the bearings.
>>13823064
i said youre a stupid bitch
>>13823404
seattle area, people butcher rare valuable shit all the time.
ill link you the thread if i ever find it again, it was a perfect solution to those things.
im hoping against all odds that since 99% of the bolts on mine have come out like new that it might not be fucked in there
>http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/5265402513.html
id also drive the shit out of this truck
and for what its worth i only paid 700 for the ecm installed
>>13823403
>>13823404
Y'all's bikes don't have grease fittings on the swingarm?
>>13823440
not for that area, not sure why they skipped it either.
usually the japs are good about that kind of thing
>>13823440
XR650R does not. It was built as a race bike so I guess they assumed the suspension would come apart after every 1000 miles or so for new bearings and shit anyway. The XR650L does have zerk fittings on the suspension linkage I guess.
>>13823438
Man I fucking love Powerwagons.
I'm debating getting the bearing kit and just putting new bearings in when I take it apart regardless of the shape of them. Need to get some good waterproof grease too.
Just bought a new chain too, need to get sprockets and sprocket bolts. This chain is in the worst shape I have ever seen a motorcycle chain. probably an inch+ of sideways deflection
>New bike expenses
>>13823451
thats honestly not that terrible, my old chain tore out the side of my mudguard because it flew around so much. but if you have it down, you may as well get bearings, saves headache later, see about adding a grease zerc on the case or slather the bolt in neverseize paste on the way back in too.
>>13823448
>>13823451
Huh, guess the PO must've put them on my 600r, I always thought it was factory. Still, I should probably check on the bearings soon.
>>13823466
That is after I tightened it [probably tightened it too much but I couldn't take how loose it was when "properly" adjusted]. Only shitty things is the bearing kit is like $80, we'll see. I want to try to pull it apart and check if any of the bolts are seized to see if I want to do it while I do the chain.
>>13823467
600 may have had them factory, I just know the 650R didn't.
>>13822788
>Bakuon
Oh shit, that reminds me. I've been trying to find that "Only idiots ride motorcycles" crop from that manga. It's got that cute frizzy haired girl making a face.
Anyone?
>>13823480
save a few bucks and go with all balls? never had any failures on them.
when it comes to wheel bearings or stem bearings, if you get the sizes call a bearing shop mcguire and you can get much higher quality for less money.
>>13823255
Yeah that's my current plan.
>>13823495
I'm trying to figure out if the Pivot Works kit has everything in it that I need because there's a store on eBay selling the kit for $55 [that's the same kit XR's Only sells], that's the only kit I can find less than $70 or so. The All Balls kits are around $70.
I have had one All Balls failure but stayed with them because they were excellent about dealing with it. I put their rear wheel bearings in my FJ and after probably a year they got notchy and made nasty noise when riding. I emailed them telling them the issue and they sent new bearings out to me even though I bought the kit from some random eBay store.
>>13823513
id avoid xrsonly personally, i guess theyve gone way downhill in the last few years.

I can't decide which would be worse for my Grom.
Hey guys - new rider here.
Will a Ninja 300 feel slow to someone with no experience?
>>13823480
Nope wasn't factory either, but seems like it's a common mod, we'll see how the bearings have held up with the occasional greasing.
>>13823435
No u
As a new rider, how do I ride new, or intense curves?
Do you only brake while straightened up, and before the curve?
What about judging uphill, sharp curves?
>>13823515
Only thing I want to know is does that kit include linkage bearings or is it just the swingarm stuff? They don't detail what is in the kit. I'm not sure the linkage bearings suffer the same fate as the swingarm ones but it would be good to know it's all new.
>>13823526
Not at all.
It might do in 6 months time when you're used to the speed. But that's like with anything.

>>13823536
Ride 7/10th's your skill level. Flick your eyes down for gravel checks. Put your leg out and point your toes toward the corner. Keep your eyes mostly fixated on going through the corner, where you want to be. Don't cut throttle mid corner. If you need to desperately shave speed in a corner, stand it up, brake, throw it back down.
Guys, everytime I go out for a ride, I want to take pictures, but end up not stopping until I am home. What do?

so, i'm doing some math here. my 2003 800 Marauder has a 45-degree v-twin that makes 50 hp and 48 ft/lbs of torque. i'm about to buy a 2004 v-strom 1000 that has a 90-degree v-twin that makes 98 hp and 75 ft/lbs. a 25% larger engine gets 51% more horsepower and 64% more torque. what gives? is the the angle of the engine that makes more power?

M8 idk I bought the Judge because it's relatively light with a giant engine
It doesn't even notice when my gf rides with me.
Same RPMs at the same gears as when I ride alone.

>getting mad that people own a certain type of bike
Wew m8
r8 this chink made poorman bike for daily commuting from home to my job, aka 10km, all in a city.
125cc, 2.3k€ new, too recent to find used ones.
>>13823639
-5/10
>>13823582
well maybe its good because it means you arent the type of faggot that spend more time taking pictures and fapping about their bike than actualy riding it

seriously though, get something better.
That feel when you do something wrong and remember you're still a shit rider.

Completely ruined the rest of my ride home.

>>13823662

Next helmet i'd like something a little more quiet at speeds. Love that inner sun visor though.
>>13823683
I take offense to that
>>13823699

Posting the same pics cause there's nowhere to ride around here. Also, rest in peas rectifier regulator.

How do you like your Fly helmet? Looking at a carbon Fly to replace my old beat up Answer
Thoughts? 1/2
high quality reflective, not LED
>>13823646
>>13823763
I just have to run by my old shop to use their terminal kit. Connections got ripped out and I can just splice them back together ez. Weather has been pretty wet so I can't really ride anyway.

$20 cud save ur life m80s
>>13823785
$20 could make you look like a fucking faggot
>>13823785
If I had a helmet like that I'd actively seek the sweet release of death
>>13823767
I would so get it if it wasn't cheesed up with 46 crap and fanboy colors...
Tfw girlfriend of 2 years would never let me have a motorcycle but we recently broke up thinking of getting an old cb750
>>13823772
ive really liked it, only complaint i could say i have is that my earbuds dont fit with it too well since it makes them turn sideways.
not even half bad on the highway either
>>13823783
how'd you manage to rip them out?
>>13823782
top kek what a terrible rider
also if you buy serious rim stripes buy them from this guy. gonna redo my plasti dip rims properly when I change my tires

Congrats on finding your balls, anon
Don't ever let that happen again.

What do you think of using my Hornet as a full time helmet? Is it stupid to use it as an offroad helmet? My biggest issue is ventilation which the Hornet does well but not nearly as well as an offroad helmet.

>>13823796
Trail got pretty bouncy and its mounting bolt wiggled out. It must have been dangling for a while before it finally gave.
>>13823805
jay leno is a dbt success story, they pestered him about his trip until he actually dropped it. (for a few threads straight he was claiming he only used his trip when it was relevant with was demonstrably untrue)
>>13823795

If you want to enjoy riding get a cbr250r or at least a CB500. Old UJMs are notorious for having shit suspension and cb750s in particular are hipster taxed to shit

in the desert it might not serve you the best. i use my variant as my main lid for anything involving much road or inclement weather. low speed hot days suck in the variant since the lens is so big it just sunbakes inside with the visor down
but i still prefer the fly for anything low speed or strenuous since it airs out really nicely.
>>13823793
i feel ya m8
>>13823793
I don't mind the colours, not a big fan of the 46 though.
But the €600 is definitive reason I'm not getting it.
>>13823822
damn dude thats beautiful
