  1. Bike won't start

    in Tech and Tips

    Posted

    If its the pump it would at least crank wouldn't it? it's not doing that. So here's the rundown of the bike over winter so we might be able to eliminate questions lol

    Since I have had the bike, which I got it towards the End of Nov., I did not winterize it because if it's sunny out, I'm taking it our regardless of how cold it is. At one point when it was raining a shit ton it was left in a rain outside my apartment and water seeped into the tank and it wouldn't start, but it would crank. I got the fluid drained and put fresh gas in the tank and walla, she was running. After that I had put the bike in a garage(none heated) and would start it once a week and would also ride it about once a week for at least 20-30 minutes. No problems, minus cold finger tips. I recently moved it to my parents house(a warmer setting but no heaters) because I got rid of the other garage. It had been there for a few days and then since it was nice today I got her out and rode for about 30 minutes. In that time, I stopped and got food, and she started back up just fine. Rode home and was there for about an hour and walked back out and wouldn't start. I pulled in the clutch hit the ignition and nothing but a click...not even cranking(my guess is that it's electrical), I tried again a few hour later and same thing. A simple click, and not cranking.

    So again, another problem, but this time, with no rain or water getting in the tank. I rode my bike for about 30 minutes earlier and everything was fine. Was at home for about an hour and went to go ride to work and wouldn't start. I pull in the clutch and hit the ignition and it clicks once and nothing. I've turned it off and back on and still nothing. Any ideas why might this have happened or how to fix it?

  10. Ebay Bike Stands

    in Reviews

    Posted

    I've never used a pitbull stand or any of the other brands. I picked one up from pony that looks exactly like the cheaper one and I like it because it gets the job done for cleaning and maintenance. the only thing I have to do it tight the screws before I use it because its little woobles a little bit but it's never dropped my bike or anything.

  12. ContourGPS or ContourROAM

    in Pics and Vids

    Posted

    So I already have a GoPro and I'm looking to get another camera. The video's I've seen with the Contours seem nice(to me at least in terms of quality and such).

    I get a discount on the Contours which is why I'm deciding to go that route.

    Is having the GPS worth it? knowing how fast i'm going and elevation and stuff? or Should I keep it simple and get the ROAM, having 170 wide angle and 1080p same as the gps. It also has bluetooth enabled...which I know I would never use. Then of course, what comes in the box is different too. Which I don't mind buying the extra stuff since i'll get a discount on that too.

    Anyone use either one or if you had to choose which would you go with?

    I briefly summed the difference between them, but I still put the info below too so you guys can see.

    • Still Photo. When you want to freeze frame the action, the still photo is your perfect shot. You can pick from 6 rates (1, 3, 5, 10, 30 or 60 sec) to best capture that moment.
      Waterproof

  20. Paint removal

    in Tech and Tips

    Posted

    So my winter project has slowly begun lol I want to remove the paint off my rims (I don't think they are power coated considering he did it in his garage and got paint everywhere) and I want them back to stock color without having to repaint them. I can slowly hand pick some of the paint off (yellow paint) but didn't know if there was a paint removal out there that wouldn't ruin the wheels. The black paint I can't pick off(on rims and pegs) any suggestions? I'm also trying to avoid paying someone else to do it. I've got the time to do it so, we'll see lol

    This is what the bike looked like when he got it. Other than that, who knows. If it has a clean title, it has one. Clearly none of us who are apart of this thread are going to buy it. People sell their stuff, some good deals and some bad. Let him sell it for whatever he wants(and you can ask him the history of the bike, and if something raises a red flag in your head, then don't fucking buy it). He also doesn't have to get rid of it. If he needed to, the price would drop.

  24. out of gas

    Me too, usually grab fuel when everyone else does and I always use one of my trips for fuel and the other for oil services - that way if my fuel gauge fails, I've still got an estimate of how much is left in her;)

    I would have never thought of doing that
