Hi /dbt/ my bike has a problem and I have no idea what causes it
relevant info on bike: 4stroke single cyl, carbed, no fuel pump
Issue: stuttering/ missing ignitions at a certain rpm range (6-8k)
It feels like running into the rev limiter but it happens way before the red zone. It just started happening one day, the bike wasn't sitting for a week or anything
What I've tried so far:
new sidestand relay (supposedly an old one with a bad contact can cause this issue)
Cleaned carb
new spark plug (the old one seemed fine, but why not try it)
adjusted carb (spark plug is anice reddish brown)
Seafoam

Check fuses and look for grounds.
>>15422966

>>15422973
It's gonna sound really stupid but check the connectors on your ignition coils. I had the same issue and it turns out the plugs vibrated loose.

fuses are all good
I just cleaned the contacts on the ignition coil and test rode, still happens
I don't have ebough timeand daylight left to look through all the wiring, gonna do that tomorrow
Any other ideas?
>>15423047
honestly sounds electrical bruv
>>15423047
When you get a chance check resistances on plugs and coils.
What does your plug look like? Does it stutter or just cut off completely?
Does the bike have a regulator/rectifier?
I want a new street bike. What should I get?

plug is brown, maybe a little dark but not black
it just misses a few ignitions, doesn't turn off
it also idles fine and has normal power until it reaches that rpm range
and yeah it has a rectifier

Toyota built motorbikes when
I've got a mosquito bite on the sole of my foot.
I can't stop thinking about how lonely I feel,
maybe if the teacher didn't abuse me I wouldn't have dropped out of school,
I really miss my grandpa, he would have know what to do right now.
I don't feel at home anymore, I haven't even spoke to my father in two years.
Man that bite it's really itchy, I think I'll go for a ride.
>>15423089
well yeah
>>15423092

>>15423096

>>15423108
The victory? I do like their cruisers a little, but not that old yet
>>15423084
Plug is fine then.
Test your rectifier. If that's all good then you have a loose connection somewhere. When your bike hits that RPM range it hits a resonance frequency and vibrates the connector off, causing it to lose ignition. Check every single plug in your ignition system and make sure they're tighter than a toddler's cunt.

What is this considered? Sport cruiser? Spruiser? Im looking for more like pic cause harleys are slo and sport bikes not my style so kinda the in between.
>>15423125
It'll work out mate, you will get through it all and be a better person for it.

That looks pretty good. Looks like a straight up Scout ripoff but i like those too.
>>15423183
I like cruisers but like i said i feel they are slow and im a big guy, not for you but for sport bikes. So my frame wouldnt fit gud hunched over on a sport bike. Plus texas is nothing but long stretches of interstate interupted by cities and towns so a cruiser type that i could sit up straight on is prefered.

Yea the ones i seen wernt like the v65. Looks like some old school stuff tho.
>>15423191
>>15423203
>>shit handling, excessive engines
Sounds like the genre im lookin fer.
>>15423229
Well, the engine is tuned differently, some use v2s and i3s instead of i4s, and even those who do are typically tuned more for torque as opposed to power
>>15423229
m8 are you retarded?
>>15423216
Eh the octane has different suspention, different cams, and a little more displacement.
>>15423233
Yea im 6'1" 220 and built like a fridge. I have seen guys like me on sports and i uhhh, i mean to each their own but naw im good.
>>15423236
Thats why i was tryin to find that notch thats inbetween cruisers and sport bikes cause i like my back to (always that fucking lower back) but id like something that i could twist the throttle on when im already doing 85-90 and it still has enough umph to make me pray to hey-zeus.

How do we get onto that /dbt/ map?
Hey /dbt/,
Stayed up till 2am last night riding around and catching pokemons. Got to see a few neat areas I town I never usually travel too, noticed a lot of other people playing too, and probably scared the shit out of a few normies with my random stops in residential neighborhoods.
Had a bicycle fag get mad at me for pulling up on the sidewalk at a pokestop. I wasn't even on his side of the street but he felt the need to scream that "what you're doing is illegal, brah!", then he ran through a red light.
>>15423388
You start cussing austrianktmguy's mother and, if ha hasn't died yet, he'll come moaning
>>15423387
I'm gonna steal your boots.
... what size?
>>15423388
>>15423380
Dude that's probably intentional, a couple of my new bikes had that. I think it's to help you roll your hand forward to grab the brake.
>>15423380
There's usually an adjustment thing on the throttle pull cable. It's a very easy thing to do, I think it's described in the owner manual even for most Yamahas.
>>15423394
>I wasn't even on his side of the street but he felt the need to scream that "what you're doing is illegal, brah!", then he ran through a red light.

WR?
>... what size?

>>15422917
Where do I pick up my DBT sticker
>>15423380
There are usually adjusters near the throttle body & there should be some near the handlebars. Use the bar ones first before dicking with the ones near the motor.
Do you not have a service manual for your baiku? Do you not google?
>>15423383
See i was looking at indians. Im gonna test drive one of these bastards to see how well it responds. Im thinking it might be slower than id like but if its as comfy as it looks for us talking fridges then i might consider.
>springfields
I have no memory of this place
>>15423417
Damnit, a size too small.
Your boots are safe.
>>15423408
It'd make sense if it sprung back to a centered resting point. As is that whole wiggly area is a dead zone for the throttle and it makes throttle response from a stop rather irregular.
>>15423410
Thanks I'll have a look after class tonight.

>>15423333

>>15423452
I must not be explaining this very well. The wiggly zone here >>15423380 provides no throttle input. It's wiggly like that when the throttle tube is at idle, creating a fairly large dead zone with no spring tension or throttle input whatsoever. It's just dead slack. This is particularly annoying when at a stop and you twist your throttle X% from muscle memory, but it either gives it too much gas or not as much as you wanted due to the starting position of the throttle tube always being in a random spot.
>>15423463
I kek every time.
>>15423470
What i wanted to say is that my bike does exactly what that guy said, it has a "deadzone"
Yours just seems to have come loose
>>15423451

That seat makes my dick diamonds. I wish I could cum on it
>>15423454
only had it for about 4 month. Bought it cheap (1200€), put new rear brake pads and disk on it, new tires, new chain, new sprockets, new rectifier, new bulb, new handlebar, changed all fluids, powder coated many small parts and sold it about 4 month and 150km for 1400€
I dont even want to think about the money I lost. But anyway. Was a fun bike, but not exactly was I thought it would be. Also got a very very good deal on a car and so the bandit got changed for a Mazda
Productive day. Might even get the back wheel on tomorrow.

Since we're on the subject of gloves, what are some good summer gloves you recommend? Mine don't fit for shit anymore and they're cheap crap.

Just like in that picture, motorcycles gloves always have quite a bit of extra length in the fingers. Is this normal? It's kinda annoying because you can't do anything with your hands when you stop. Can't pull your card out of your wallet to get gas etc.

So what has stopped us implementing a points based system or w/e to stop all the shitty eastern euros flooding in?
>>15423850

Immigration from outside the EU was always 100% under control (or rather, lack thereof due to incompetence) of the UK government. The EU has fuck-all to do with that. We're not part of Schengen, any failure to check passports at borders is 100% a local fuckup.
EU immigrants under the Free Movement of Peoples make a net contribution to the economy, and public services specifically. If they were to be 'thrown out' (which even the nuttiest of the Eave campaign didn't propose) then not onyl would public services by worse off in terms of funding from taxes, they would lose the majority of staff who successive governments have failed to put funding into training domestically (a massive problem with the NHS, among all-round massive underfunding).

And here we have the BNP contingent. It may be comforting to blame your problems on DER IMERGRENTS TERK ER JERBS rather than your own failure to get up off your arse, put down the shitty cider and actually have a work ethic, but you know deep down your problems are entirely of your own making.

How much will a shop charge to rebuild and rejet my carburetor? Its a single Keihin CVK34 on a Kawasaki KLX250.
No mods, only looking to rejet and remove the airbox snorkel so it runs better (it dynos 18-20whp, bone stock and only picks up 2whp from a exhaust, lol)
>>15424231

>>15424237
I'm horribly inept at small mechanical things and want the bike to run correctly.

Shops near me charge 85$ per hour. That being said, do it yourself. I did it with no problems and I am not mechanically inclined. It's good to get in the habit of doing shit yourself.
Also, look up the KLX cheap mods.

Are there motorcycles which are at the same time powerful and fuel efficient?
Something along the lines of 100 hp, 50 mpg.
Or 60 hp, 70 mpg.
