Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Ordered some Alpine star tech 7s hoping they would fit. They don't. Downside to not having chicken legs.

 

You could still have chicken legs with cows for calf’s. Lol

I love being average.

 

The Uhaul motorcycle trailer is absolute perfection. Heavy enough not to bounce around when it's empty, the design is so easy to use, room for gear too. It's the only trailer they don't sell used when replaced, they destroy them instead. $25 a day too, only bad part is going to Uhaul.

 

i believe it's actually $15/day, or at least it is for me here in San Diego

 

Oh you're right, $15 here too

 

Agreed, the place I used to rent from was annoying to get to. Once I had the space to store it I picked up a cheap little trailer. Thanks thought the white wheels looked good too but what a pain to keep clean

Yeah they are nice I like the built in wheel chock

 

The headlight on my AT is $2k. Who knows what a touch screen cluster would be

 

Pricey….. https://www.hondapartshouse.com/oemparts/c/honda/parts

 

Mine is $700

 

Haven't seen you for a while!

 

Went to put the battery in the bike and somewhere I lost one of the battery nuts.

Gotta go pick up a new nut, but closest place that has one is 40 miles away.

 

Treat it like a fb ad....ask them if they'll deliver for free

 

You don't have a hardware store, home Depot, anything?

 

Hit two automotive parts stores and a hardware store. None at any of those. It's not a regular nut. It's a rectangle to fit the battery post slot.

 

Make one.

I did for my daughter’s bike when she lost one pulling the battery. I had an old stick of 1/8th inch flat stock steel. Drilled a hole slightly smaller than the screw/bolt. Ran the bolt through it several times to make the threads, Then ground down as much as I could. Pliers and a vice work great.. then filed it to size (rectangle). It’s still working after a couple years.

Trust me.. it was a pain in the ass, But works.

 

No garage. No tools.
