    Lol I'm the other tard aren't I

    For the record I'm here for fun and don't take things too seriously... it's the internet after all. I like to chat and meet people with the same interests and learn stuff along the way - which this forum has been great for!

    i would just like to have someone properly explain the correct technical differences between engine braking and the modern day excessive engine braking that the internet world of cbr forums keeps saying they "adjust" "remove"

    Acting like it’s the third gen section.


    So what’s the biggest tire I can fit on my bike with no lift?

    should be no surprise it was a third gen owner...


    i may have worded things poorly, or perhaps insufficient explanation...

    still waiting for @kcuv to enlighten me

    @w.adventures would buy anything with two wheels

    but seeing @MagtechPA buy it would be neat, and would match that honda jacket he has...


    still waiting for @kcuv to properly explain how decel fuel cut works and why people often mistakenly refer to it as excessive engine braking...

    I have the Helmet Lok. I havent used it on the 48, because theres no where to put it/I just carry the helmet.

    What is going on in this thread? Im with @FreshOldTaco ... Im just here to poke fun at @uhplifted shipping woes, and shoot the shit with some others. Im probably not going to take anything seriously :blahblah::wink:

    Get that out of here, that's not what this page is for. This page is only for engine braking topics.
