If bro weren't so picky and worried about his belongings I could borrow the carb out of his DRZ, but that's not going to happen.
I've been thinking about maybe buying the FCR39 as a fix/upgrade. Fug $550 for a carb tho?

Does /dbt/ balance their own tires or go to the shop?
I can replace tires but I'm not sure about accurate balancing.

They have those bead things you pour in through the valve stem, anyone have experience with those?

I bought some sticky wheel weights and stuck one of them on to get it roughly balanced. Just toook my chain and brake off and spun the wheel around and found out if one side consistently came out on bottom

I've been checking ebay and craigslist for carbs occasionally. They are a bit cheaper but I never know if it might have a slightly different fit that will make things a lot harder. Also I need several other parts (throttle cables, air box adapter, velocity stack, intake adapter, jets, etc.) that make it cost a lot more than the carb itself if I were to buy used.

The 39mm flat slide carb with accelerator pump is "the best mod you can do to a drz." Basically it makes the bike much punchier and more responsive.

Very well. They're relatively cheap, so each new tire gets a new set of beads. Just make sure you get actual Dynabeads and not one of the 6 gorillion copies on the market.

Aw yeah. Look at them genuine parts that arrived yesterday.

I think I'll go disassemble my small bike to see what's up with the carb before leaving for work. It's dumping fuel on low revs.

No fucking way. I'll take older name brand expensive tires over non existent quality control. These are the same faggots that killed babies by tainting milk formula to make more money.

Is a set of those plastic rim guards really needed on a wheel that isn't fancy and expensive?
I have heavy ass black wheels on my SV that I don't mind if they get a scratch.
Anyone know if they are aluminum, I really hope they didn't use steel. So much rotating weight.

I did. They were to tight before. Now that they're in spec they're noisier. It's more of a tick than a clack though.
I checked before and put in a shim to move them to the right gap. Then I checked with the new shim in and it was in spec. Then I ran it some and it was still in spec. Then several thousand miles later it was still in spec.

Question. My dirt wheels have a rim lock on them, but it throws them out of balance. When I put dual sport tires on them, I want to lose the rim lock. What do I do about that hole in the rim?

>>13842598
Tire irons will gouge the edges of the rim. It won't really hurt anything though except aesthetics. The rim protectors are cheap though.

Put a magnet to it if you want to find if it is aluminum or steel.

>>13842601

>>13842631
tape it over or put a button head bolt in there.
i usually ditch the rubber rim band and spin good electrical tape on about 4-6 passes in its place then just poke the holes you need

i don't really take luxuries, except a garmin etrex, though it's scarcely bigger than a paper map and quite a bit more useful, so i think it's justifiable.
everything else is ultralight hiking gear.
1.8kg tent
2 season down bag
thermarest neoair
optimus crux lite stove and pot/cup
some boil in a bag food/instant coffee
some fresh underwear and t-shirt (dependent on length of trip)
baby wipes/wet wipes
small bar of multipurpouse soap and other essential toiletries like a toothbrush, a small towel and a dragon dildo
1 pair of shorts, flip flops and a lightweight micro fleece.
a couple of essential tools like a multitool, a knife, puncture repair kit etc.

It all fits nicely into a 30l roll bag and a kriega r25(water bladder in), with room to spare for beers, anal beeds and other assorted items.
Weighs very little, barely noticeable on the bikes handling.

thats it. anything else is unnecesary bullshit.

"Expert motorcyclist and author Ken Condon knows there is a right way to hit the road and track when you’re behind the handlebars. In this new book Motorcycling the Right Way, Condon lays out a basic riding course for motorcyclists who are smart enough to acknowledge that “you don’t know what you don’t know.” In setting forth the keys to riding safely and well, Condon’s method capitalizes on reducing risks and potential crashes and increasing the rider’s ever-improving skills and situational awareness. Filled with readable, useful advice and anecdotes from the road, Motorcycling the Right Way will be welcomed by beginners and returning riders, as well as"

>How do you like Kreiga?
Love it. Build quality is amazing, but that can be found in other bags, whats special is the shoulder strap/harness system. It takes all the weight off your shoulders. You barely feel it.
Once you've experienced it, you wont want to ride with a conventional backpack again.
There are other nice touches, like the white lining inside so you can actually see inside the bag, high quality zippers and tension buckles, and it's basically waterproof.

Thanks mate, just saved me some $$. I will eventually get the same front tire, its just it has at least 3months left in it

>>13842976
I feel it man. I did the same thing, but I didn't even realize that I replaced the rear with the same tire as the front. What bike do you have?
>>
>>13842965
I would recommend tires of the same compound that work together. If you're not a pro rider that understands compounds and how they affect the behaviour of the bike don't risk it.
By staying the same you have balance. It's just good practice. It's why seeing only snow tires on the driving wheels of a car drive me crazy. It should be all four for maximum control and predictability.

>The conclusion is the rider is still at fault for not paying better attention to the buffoon going through the stop sign.

The rider had eyes on the van the whole time, He was never going to get hit. You need to remember that it is a fisheye lens so everything seems alot closer that it really is.

Also the van was the one 100% at fault, the rider stated in a previous thread that he gave the cops the footage and they fined the van driver.
>>
>>13843067
Yes, as a rider he should have known better. If you treat everything like it's out to get you you'll be much safer. That nignog had plenty of time to see and adapt. He's lucky he didn't get ran over.

He also had a yield sign. Knowing that the van was about to occupy the same space as him he should have slowed down.

I had one day in New Mexico where it started around 60-64F and BAM! a strong wind came through and the temp dropped 20F in less than 20 minutes. It kept dropping at a slower rate and bottomed out at 2F around midnight. It was crazy, and of course I would be working on my car through this. Also, periodic snow flurries.

>He also had a yield sign.

No, incorrect. If the van had of stopped the rider would have farted by long before the van was even close.

Its sloppy driving on the van drvers part.

The rider did everything correctly.
Plus if he got hit, that's in Australia they all have insurance. He would have got a good pay day for very little injury.
>>
>>13842939
Depends on where I'll be living. Ideally, on the DR650 I'd like to do the valves, oil change, inspect all bearings, change shock fluid, fork fluid, clean and lube the chain, and some other little things here and there.

What's a higher priority right now though is to figure out why my Miata is leaking more oil than usual. I'll put it up on stands when it's daylight again.

Eastern New Mexico is a special kind of Hell, friend. At least here in Alamogordo, the weather is modulated a bit better with the mountain ranges. We do get some good wind, but it doesn't get as bad nearly so often as Clovis does. Hell, in Clovis the winds can be calm and then all of a sudden it's FORTY FIVE MPH GUSTING TO SIXTY and tumbleweeds are no-shit passing you on the roads in town. I wasn't there for this, but this is fucking hilarious.

I've had 60+ MPH crosswinds on I-40 east of Albuquerque before. Dodging tumbleweeds on that while in the Miata is like Frogger except you don't die when you hit or get hit by a tumbleweed. You just get a POOF! of sticks everywhere and scratches on your paint. The cool thing about that side of New Mexico is you can take the back roads (which are mostly straight) at pretty much any speed you want because there's fucking nothing out there.

A give way sign means you give way to vehicles already in the intersection. That doesn't include vehicles that should be coming to a stop.

That said, the biker that's not a defensive driver is a dead biker...

Just por them into the tank m8. The coffee is a different viscosity to petrol, so it will stay at the top of the petrol and not get ducked through the petcock.

Later on you can just drink it with a straw

Or if you have a open face, you can drink whilst riding.

This is also a great way to stay alert always on your bike so you don't drive out in front of vans at intersections.

I knew what the van was going to do, it happens all the time there. They have only recently painted and signposted that intersection, it used to be a shitfest free for all.

Van was never gonna hit me, he made eye contact with me before he got to the stop sign, van driver just wanted to be a cunt. I went to the main office that afternoon when it happened and showed them the footage, they have had many complaints about that specific driver. He could have possibly gotten sacked by now and I hope the ignorant old cunt has too.

The rider wasn't breaking road rules while driving a vehicle covered in company regalia.

That thing is weird to ride. Tried one and it has rearsets with the position of a supersport and the handlebars/seat setup like an upright naked.

It got uncomfy after 20 mins of ridint. Then again might fit better people who are below 1.80m height

Right now trying to figure out how to make an STM32F407 microcontroller communicate with different peripherals using the I2C protocol. Project is designing an audio filter controlled by the MCU for use with a TTS system and class D amplifier that can announces train arrivals / departures on demand (CH1) and in regular intervals (CH2).
