>>15319155
down as in toward the handle bars making it lower at the front or higher?
raising the front end will fix that, lowering it will make it worse.
lowering it also fucks with the handling of the bike, reduces the lean angle the bike is capable of to begin with and also reduces your braking power by taking weight off the rear wheel and putting it on the front wheel.
>>
>>15319164
its ok. i picked it cause its the most quiet mechanical keyboard i could find.
id like to build something with some cherry clears though.
>>
>>15319177
Lower. Good to know. When I take the fairing off next I'll put it back to standard height.
>>
>>15319143
True.

They do make a whole lot of boring bikes. Honda motorcycles and Honda cars are very similar.

We can all hope and pray for a new XRR, Blackbird, and RC51 though.

>>
>>15319185
drop it the forks down as low as they will go in the triple clamps considering your front tyre, as long as half a millimeter or so is still poking through they arent going anywhere,
it will make a huge difference in pretty much every aspect of the bikes handling
>>
>>15319199

>>
>>15319209
his bike is below the balance point, it will make it handle better and it will also make it brake better because the rear wheel will actually have a little bit of weight on it.
wouldnt have to do it if he had a tyre that was 10mm taller

shim actually goes under the bucket but nice try.

Shim and bucket valve adjusters are great though. Easier to get the feeler gauge in there and rarely go out of adjustment. A lot of people like the screw and jam nut because it's easier to adjust, but I actually found it easier to take out the cams to change the shims than to try to fit a wrench and screwdriver in that tiny area under the frame to adjust the screw.

why is /dbt/ so hung up on big bikes?

in the city a small bike is so much more fun to ride and makes so much more sense than ruining your 2nd gear on a supersport racing light to light

i just took my old 175 for a boot for old times sake and it was a blast going through all the gears and just whipping it around like a litte toy

175 is a bit on the extreme end but it keeps up with city traffic ok and my 250 is faster than most things on the road

i live in canada so i have bigger bikes for driving longer trips at faster speeds but i can't imagine trying to get around europe on a supersport and just destroying the transmission all the time

Anyone else have their knee protectors move around on their overpants?
It's annoying.
They move side to side a bit too much and while they fit over my knees when my legs are bent what happens if I go down and my legs are strait? I really don't want to bash my knees.

Does /dbt/ think changing the headlights on a Triumph Scrambler from the stock single one to a twin config would look stupid, and would it be difficult?

Nah, I think if you use the right headlight to match the bike it would look alright. If you want twin headlights, go for it.
>>
>>15319902

Are you American, genuinely curious, I live in the UK and I have never seen a hipster on one before over here, probably due to the fact that Triumph is British so its not really a hipster choice, it is a mainstream brand.

your MSF instructor is completely right. They're amazing for learning, they're really easy to ride, you just ride 2km and it's like you've always been on that bike, they're reliable as fuck too, but you have 0 sensations, 0 character.

Something weird happened yesterday

I was cruising down a small mountain and decided to shift into neutral, just because. as I wanted to shift into first because the mountain came to an end, i pulled in the clutch and pushed my foot down. but, even though the clutch was pulled in, the shifter began to shake pretty hard, and showed some strong resistance.

is this normal, or is my bike finally fucked?

Something similar happens with my bike. Basically it shifts into neutral+. Shifting out for me leads to either a louder/heavier shift than usual or I just stay in neutral.

That's how transmissions work. The input shaft slows down a lot when it's in neutral, so when you put it back in gear even with the clutch in it has to suddenly speed up a significant amount.

To help smooth it out rev up your bike in neutral before you pull your clutch and click it into gear.

The OE carb on the DR650 is really low-rent. Also, there's quite the "booger weld" inside the exhaust flange, the unmodified airbox is stuffy, and the OE muffler is silly restrictive. Fixing those issues alone will get you over 40HP. Increasing displacement with a better piston design in combination with the aforementioned mods would feasibly get you >50. That said, I'm having plenty of fun with my mostly-stock (some model of FMF muffler), 36ish HP tractor.

We found out we are the lowest point of the street, even lower than the drain pipes, with a door that has a 2cm gap on the bottom.
The door is also on the lowest point of the house, at the lowest point of the garden.

And of course is it 25°C with a humidity of 80+, with rain, so when we just moved all the furniture we created puddles of sweat.

Am I just a weak cunt, did the bolt expand due to the hot weather or did the mechs overtighten it when they changed my tires? They were total jews back then and managed to fuck my battery up as well so the thought isn't far-fetched.
I even tried to loosen it with a longer lever and wrapping the handle in cloth so I could grip harder. I literally lifted the bike a mm from its stand doing that.

>just made a 2cm concrete dam on the pavement.
The guy who is going to fix it is going to raise the bottom of the frame by 2cm, put a stone pit along the wall and might fit a drain under the garden door that connects to the drain pipe.

Also the hallway and living room floor is going to be replaced (which was done 2 months ago too, when the main water pipe was leaking)

I found this place in 2010 when /b/ was making the news. Looked it up at the end of the article and here I am.

That was the year I spent on /r9k/ after 2 years on /b/.
In 2011 I finally made the switch to blue boards exclusively (g, o, tg, k and as a guilty pleasure, int and v).

Yeah, plus according to the builder/designer,Ben Hardy/Cliff Vaughn (respectively), the chromed rear drum heated and faded INCREDIBLY fast under stop-and-go conditions to the point that it crystallized the brake rod more then once, so riding it at speed was a bit of a sketchy experience (IIRC they took the backup 'B' bikes across America after the movie was done being shot just because they could). To add to the fun, they only could get 30-40 miles out of the 'Captain America' bike before the tank ran dry. At least the 'Billy' bike had front drums and a bigger tank.

They both said it was so worth it to be riding that thing, and as a massive chopper fanatic, I would give my left nut to own that bike, even with all of its flaws.
