Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

I think it's a stator issue. Maybe fouled a plug too. Battery died before I was supposed to go out, jumped it, instruments stayed on and then turned off, then it ran like shit, bogged out and died. Jumped it again, same thing, packed up and went home

 

Bummer. Sounds like the stator which shouldn't be too bad.

 

Yeah gonna see if I can drop her off at a dealer tomorrow. Traveling this week for work and track day in 2 Fridays

 

Hope you get a break on them stealership prices!

 

god willing...

 

Anybody ever get shocks through there clutch lever? Was riding my friends 520 exc today and was getting intermittent shocks through the clutch lever. Was exciting to say the least lol

 

Like static shock or just like the lever jolting shock?

 

KTM's don't weigh as much as DRZ's...

That KTM is about 275 lbs wet, if the bike behind it is a DRZ or something then he's probably right around 600 lbs or so which is below listed max on the Taco. 550 lbs if it's another KTM.

But I'd be more worried about the carrier which doesn't look that beefy to me.

 

no one else got turned on reading all this?

 

Well when you put it that way

 

They rode on some grass and a pile of dirt.... woop de do..... Not impressed

 

I see you're still butthurt

 

Like when my finger touched the lever i got a intermittent shock like the timing of a spark plug would get. Was weird.

KTM 520 exc and a KTM 250 sx. So pretty light but I didn't build the rack to handle fat drz's.. lol. It's 1/4" thick 2" square tube for the main support and 3/16" everywhere else. It's 90 lbs just the rack. Pain to lug in and out of the garage. It flexes pretty good with that weight on it but my welds are crack free and its still straight as the day I built it so I'm going to keep using it the aluminum racks scare me...

 

I wonder if you could build something like the moto-mule, but for two bikes?

 

Race me nerd

 

Pahleeze, yo mind is dirty. :rolleyes

 

Rumor has it grey is Ronnie Mac..

 

It's actually gray. Unless your British

 

Lol to 50. Guarantee I win
