>LED headlight kit for my DRZ is $140

>buy direct fit adapter bracket on aliexpress for $20
>bolts right in and works perfectly

now I'm sure the bracket was only available on aliexpress because some factory in China just ripped off the design that the original American seller came up with, but I also don't think a 90 dollar difference is justified especially when the American seller is probably making their brackets in China anyways.

when (not if) that stupid faggot dumps his bike for squidding out, that poor cat is fucked. he's only doing it because he wants people to take pictures of him or ask about it, attention seeking performative faggot like all zoomers.

Can I be lazy and force a velocity stack down an airbox while it's in the frame and remove the old one after I have throttle body removed to make room? I don't want to take the airbox out that seems like more work and I am already going through with changing the throttle body.

237 miles on the day. Rode 243/74 both ways then back again, and just finished up doing Ortega Highway. I love sport tourers, you can just keep going all day, I’ve been riding since 6am lol

Feels good

Witnessed my first motorcycle accident. Dude flew by me on an on ramp had to have been going at least 120mph (scared the piss outta me) and kamikazed into the side of a truck. Bros bones were showing/ sticking out. Scariest shit I’ve ever seen. Tried to help but couldn’t do much. Just stood there awkwardly. Then went home. I feel bad I couldn’t do much to help.

cycle faggots think they're fucking invincible and that the laws of physics don't apply to them or anything else on their bike, it's nuts. Some dipshit on an ebike with his kid on the back blew right past me at a stop sign doing like 25mph the other day, in a spot where there's very poor visibility for cross traffic too, could've gotten himself and his kid flattened and clearly gave zero fucks because in their heads cars can just go from 45mph to 0 instantly when he cuts in front of them.

I did 1400km on a GS500 in 1 sitting minus fuel ups and hydrating.
It was painful and I almost fell asleep while riding and went off the road.

What is the best gas can I can strap on to a bike?
I have a 100 mile tank and no fuel indicator so I'll feel better with a little extra for anything further out of town. I've ordered a rotopax 1.75 and might order a giant loop armadillo too.
But there has to be something better for motorcycles, right? Something legal and easily strappable?

For some reason Hepco & Becker makes this awesome little mounted cutout custom molded jerrycan for certain bikes but there have to be more options

>>28459637
I specifically avoided saying "in a day" because I'm sure it took me around 20 hours. The GS500 prefers 80kph and mine kept fuel starving when I'd sustain anything over 115kph

Actually it's rattlecanned. I think /dbt/ would have an aneurysm if I evertook a close up of the paint on the tank.
Near as I can tell, she was Piano Black when she rolled off the Yammerha assembly line.
Then at some point, a massive pussy owned it and painted the whole bike Traffic Cone Orange. It still has overspray on the triple tree from that crackhead paintjob.
When I bought it I said fuck it, painted her purple and let it age into the reliable rat bike she is today.

It's a miracle the current Hayabusa doesn't make less power stock than the 2005 to pass emissions given how little they changed the engine. Back then 1000s were only at 170.

I had one of those Nelson-Rigg pouches with an MSR bottle from REI. Pretty easy to strap anywhere because it's only 1L, which I think worked out to (only) 10mi that I wouldn't have to walk/push my bike. There were only a couple of times I came close to needing it but never actually happened.

Kawasaki's pretty much the same, ZX14 hasn't been touched since 2008 and the ZX10 is fucking ancient compared to anything it competes with, plus the fucking KLR. Ninja 250 went unchanged for 20 fucking years and still had parts carried over from 1986 in the Ninja 300 in 2017.

I still don't think his tune is all that safe. They probably leaned it for more power, but it's pulling -22% near redline. That's lean as FUCK. At least they didn't fuck with the ignition tables.
He's been debating doing the 2 Wheel Dyno Works ECU tune and ripping the power commander and healtech module out. I think he can probably sell that stuff to cover some of the cost of the tune. Plus, the 2wdw tune kicks your fans on early. He agreed that's the best move.

>>28459887
Wait, I just remembered. Healtech module is for his quick shifter, so he won't be ripping that out. Thought it was for something else.

>>28459887
>it's pulling -22% near redline
jfc i'm better off buying used carbed bikes, at least they're always jetted too rich instead

Maybe next weekend.

>>28459902
Turn off the internet and turn on the radio in your garage/shop/yard
get to it

>>28459896
Yeah dude it's not good. He told me tonight that there was one night he did a run from Fort Worth out to the infamous 635 tollway tunnel, did runs up and down that, then back to Fort Worth at WOT basically the whole time. Bike has 36k miles on it now. No signs of any wear or damage to the motor. Kind of incredible with a tune that bad, honestly. Testament to the greatness of the gsxr750.

>>28459896
Bikes are supposed to be "too rich" - that gives you better throttle response and cooler cylinder temps. Not to mention a better smell. If you're at 14.7:1 that's already too lean.

>>28459904
its 5pm and I need to cook and get ready for the upcoming week of soulcrushing wageslavery.

>>28459902
If you wait for motivation you'll never get anything done. Ask me how I know.

>>28459907
Don't remind me

>>28459901
Depends how loud the bike is. On my zx14 with long dual pipes, I pulled them out because it's kinda quiet. I usually put the db killer in if I'm commuting because it's dumb loud and I don't want to piss people off too much. I know for certain that I pass a lot of the same cars with regularity.

>>28459906
Yes

>>28459904
Just do it, pussy

>>28459906
No, that would be "rich enough" or "properly tuned"
marketplace rednecks just drill outs jets until the bike can't rev past 5k and creates black smoke clouds

I guess bro can just keep the helmet

>>28459901
Left mine in, it's already stupid loud.

Is FXDR performance a myth? There's no reason for Harleys with almost the same engine to perform significantly different.

>>28459916
You want it a little rich on WOT for safety measures.

>>28459931
It’s not that it’s some kind of myth, those are just how the bikes left the factory. The other bikes were de-tuned to make the FXDR shine. The same cheaper 114’s on that list are only a Dyno tune from being at the top of the list. Maybe a spicy cam if you’re into that kind of thing. 2.5 0-60 is pretty easy to accomplish on the Milwaukee Eight motors.

>>28459538
Cute

>>28459931
>90hp
>640lbs
Yeah it's a slow turd like all Harleys but for some reason it's picked up Boomer lore along the way.

>>28459933
>2.5 0-60 is pretty easy to accomplish on the Milwaukee Eight motors.
That's how quick Yamaha Vmax with 200 hp is while FXDR only has 90 hp, which is about as much as other Harleys

>>28459939
It’s about SOVL brother

>>28459939
Harley engines are designed (with a tune, emissions L) to get to highway speeds very quickly, and not much else. They sacrifice all that high speed ability to just endlessly pull very fast to 90 in basically whatever gear you’re in.
Many people don’t like this because they like to track race, or, more commonly, because they’re shopping spreadsheets, but I think it’s a very good engine compromise for the real world.

>>28459939
The VMax also has a much higher top speed.

>>28459971
That's not even the bad part of Harleys, I just want something that can lean over more. The engine profile and stability are great for street use. The CVO Road Glide RR is a step in the right direction.

I made ot without wiping out, but I had to pour water out of my damn boots when I got home.

how come all the fastest bikes are 1000cc?
does going above that just make them too heavy to run fast, or is it sports-mandated autism where nobody bothers to go above the 1000cc class because theres no money in the competitions above 1000?

>>28460476
The latter

>>28460413
Ahh yes, the classic "can't be constipated if I shit my own intestines out" dose. My brother did that when we were teenagers. Couldn't shit for 5 days and then took a megadose of laxatives, proceeded to dump a fucking basketball in there and lost like 10 pounds.

>>28460476
The Hayabusa is 1300cc. The ZX14 is 1400. Both are faster (in a straight line) than 1000s.

I moved to the east coast and tried to explain San Diego weather to some friends.
It was Christmas.
Finally I pulled out my weather app and loaded the 10 day forecast for San Diego..
Day 1
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 2
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 3
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 4
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 5
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 6
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 7
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 8
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 9
>high of 72, low of 72
Day 10
>high of 72, low of 72

Not even joking. That was the official forecast for the end of December/beginning of January

SoCal was Paradise.

Yeah, but that's coastal San Diego. Most people don't get to live in those areas and instead are inland where the tradeoff for those warm winters is scorching summers. As somebody who's actually from SoCal it just gets old too, I live somewhere that's still relatively mild but just cold enough to get some snow in the winter and it's nice, I just think it's unnatural (at least for those of us with European ancestry) to live somewhere that's basically the same all the time and I'm a lot happier being in a place where the passage of time and change of seasons is actually tangible, I've had a theory for a long time that SoCal's lack of seasonal change fucks with people's heads and is a big part of why the culture sucks.

Also SoCal is a surprisingly bad place for riding, at least the kinds I'm interested in, you just have to go so far through insane traffic to get anywhere fun and having something like a dual sport is right out the window because you can't keep up on the freeways.

I really want to keep the boxes off but they're just too damn useful.
Also, is it just me or does every euro 5 engine run fairly lean? I just installed this midpipe a few weeks ago and it's already very discolored. I can only presume the wideband's correcting but I'm still goncerned.

yeah i chickened out when i saw dark clouds incoming during my ride, there was a really bad storm yesterday night and i didn't want to be in part 2 of that with brand new tires in forest roads that are already full of dirt and shit from the night before.
i already had a close encounter with hail like you had while out riding on my own once, not fun.

Funny, I just got my ECU back from them today and took the first ride after changing out the headers (Z900RS). I wasn't expecting this much decel pop tbqh. Wasn't wearing plugs because I wanted to hear the exhaust a little more so maybe that would be less of a problem normally. But it was still pretty distracting. I'm wondering if it has to do with this (PAIR valves)?

I hate the Germans so God damn much. I ordered a pressure test kit from some German company and they sent the adapter piece and a Schrader valve that I needed to fucking press in with an actual press. Actually the press at the machine shop didn't work and I ended up using my bearing puller and a washer as a press and finally got it. All that hassle then pic related would have bee much better to install. But no, krautnogs have to be complicated like usual. It's no wonder they lost.

I am betting that tune is for sitting in parking lots shooting fireballs, not riding.

>>28460685
That is exactly what it has to do with. Did you read the fine print on their website about the tune? You're typically supposed to block off the PAIR valve system with a 2wdw tune. That and remove the exhaust valve actuator, if it has one. Definitely look your tune up on the website again, but you're usually supposed to block off the PAIR valve system. I left the valve plugged in because it will set a check engine light, but block off the ports with rubber caps or buy the block off plates.

>>28460783
i'd argue quite the opposite

>>28460791
Bro he has no clue what he's fiddling with. Doesn't even understand what units he's changing kek

>>28460794
The first time I sent them my ECU the bike was stock, I probably read this and disregarded it. 2nd time around I didn't even look, just shipped it out. So yeah, I'm a dumbass. Luckily I still have the hardware to block off the O2 sensor but will need to go disconnect that as well it looks like.
