Sorry Dime, couldn't be more wrong
I looked into buying a shaft drive bike awhile back, a gs850 i belive, and was going to build a hardtail, and a few guys on another forum went on a huge rant about how shaft drive shouldnt be used and this that and the other. Thats the only reason I said that.
-
its not a bad looking bike, but that style bike, being that low and shaft drive I belive is asking for problems.
-
cbr is the way to go for sure!
-
somthing else you could do is maybe go to a bike junk yard, find a wrecked r6 with a good title and swap the vins?
-
lets go ride? when i ride it takes my mind off everything, and i get in the zone! .. a safe zone that is!
-
The ride doesn't usually happen until 11am....which its not.
But yes...There is easily a point where its too hot to ride in full gear.
i was joking around about the heat. There is a point where i switch from leather to textile jackets. As far as 11 am goes, i thought the thread was about having a ride earlier than 11.
-
too hot? is there a such a thing? Maybe in stop and go traffic, but country riding, theres no such thing! I suppose the ride never happend. So im thinking about just going for a ride on my own
-
gotcha. well i tried guys! Id still be down to ride once it gets dark if anyone wants to go out for a lil ride!
-
excellent. Hes not wanting to put much money into it, as hes in the works of getting a triumph speed triple 955
-
i feel kinda bad, i got sidetracked washing my truck! I just got back in!
-
well, We could meet up in huber or whever you guys would like. Im down to ride where ever!
-
I was thinking about maybe going for a ride around 7ish or so if anyone is interested?
-
so far you guys are a ton of help! thanks!

I have been working on a buddy of mines 77 kz650. Mostly stock other than a mac header and exhaust. I can't get the damn thing to idle right. I will get it to idle nice and smooth, and as soon as you rev it, sometimes the RPMS will just hang around 4k and then idle back down. other times its nice and crisp. The next issue im running into is, I will get it idling nice around 1500, and then the idle will slowly drop to 1000, and then it starts getting rough and acts as if it wants to die and sometimes will if your not quick enough on the throttle. anyone have any thoughts?

Last weekend I went over to iron pony and bought a light smoke visor for my sprint helmet. After three or four rides I decided I dont care for the tinted visor and put my clear back on. My clear has a few scratchs on it. I would be willing to trade this visor for a good clear one or sell it if anyone would be interested?
-
Mine is the ( i call it red) everyone else says purple f3. Thats out on 245.
-
-
so are we doing this ride? haha
-
ill check it out! thanks man really apperciate the help
-
where can i get one of these patchs?
-
sounds good ill get ahold of you.
-
Well from the recent research I have done , I personally would stay away from shinkos. I was reading reveiws and most everyone said they were terriable. Although I have no personal experience. A few buddies of mine run avons, and swear by them.
-
okay ill let you know, what do you charge for m/b?
-
How fast do you go? How hard to you corner?
Popular opinion is no, but plugs work well...I put a plug in a tire once and rode it until I have the green to buy a new one. I just didn't ride as hard or go as fast.
i rarley go over 75-80. as far as corning, i use just about my entire 160, if that says anything? Would you be willing to do this patch/plug( i think the one that you do from the inside would be best) and mount and balence for me?
