Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

That's an even better spot, and sheltered from the sun and rain lol. I'd like to park next to the bike rack under the awning by the main entrance but I think somebody would complain

 

I also park in the bike rack..........my boss knows she won't change me and is completely cool with it

 

Got everything for the klx besides the woodruff key that’s on order and should show up next week the only thing I’m not sure of is head bolts? I haven’t found any forum stating the drz400 needs new headbolts when they get taken out and nobody I know thinks they need new ones either but gonna keep looking to make sure

 

There are many SC Project dealers, but Motovation has had exclusive distribution on SC Project in the US for a while now. I have one of their slip-ons on my bike. Quality is good.

 

What pipe do you have on your 300? Is it a slip on or full system?

 

alright so i found out you can reuse the head bolts (found a thread and a suzuki manual about em) the head bolts are not torque to yield or what ever they are calling them so im free to reuse them sweet! less money needing spent

 

Then the headers without cats are another 900 euros. Luckily i don't have emissions in VA for motorcycles

 

so what can I convince you to get now???

 

umm nothing lol i dont have loads of money atm ive been trying to build cash back up after spending to much awhile back but i got some cash from selling things so i decided to fix my bike so i can have it back

 

It's the carbon yoshimura r77, just the slip on I didn't buy the full exhaust because the bike was new and I didn't want to get a power commander, etc. And the OEM one is a large heavy ugly boat anchor It's a bit loud but stock was a bit too quiet. It's not loud with my earplugs in

 

For that price, tell me they're at least constructed from Ti.

 

yeah, hand made in Italy

 

I pass those motorcycle spots in Philly everyday. It scares me how close cars come to them.

 

At least there's that then. It would look rad when the color turns after some usage.

 

I'll ride by any means necessary but hoping I'm back to normal for the most part once I get the all clear

I do like the FJR and they go the distance for sure as you and many others have proven. That would be my choice for a sport-tourer

 

I mostly take the train it's more convenient for me, when I ride in I end up worrying about my bike parked in the city all day. My coworker used to park there everyday but not sure if he ever had an issue.

 

I got alot of my stuff already. REI has fast shipping. Tent and cookset come tomorrow.

But this is a good list also:

Cool! I have the same bike. I don't mind the sound of the stock exhaust. The looks though, that's another story. And like you said, it's a boat anchor. I'm thinking along the same lines as you, going with a slip on. A full system really needs a fuel tuner to optimize the pipe, and in a lot of cases so you don't end up down on power. And I just don't feel like there's much power to be gained by adding a full system and a tuner to a 300cc bike anyway. The fortune you'd spend finding a few HP's would be better spent on a bigger bike. So I'll probably eventually go the slip on route as well. I've been looking at Arrow exhaust as I like the look of some of their stuff.

 

The G is too big for my wife as well. She sat on a few at the dealership the other day and a 125 is about perfect. That is probably what I will be picking up for her.

 

I’m a fan of their riding style and pace for sure. I’ve been sleeping on the standing off road wheelies… that looks like a blast.

My buddy had a klx140 big wheel that my wife wasn’t a huge fan of. We are both huge fans of CRF125 big wheel. Electric start (with back up kick starter) & fuel injection. Fantastic bike.
