Gorilla Chasing Banana - Creativity Brainstorming!!!
Gixxus Christ! replied to DerekClouser's topic in Pics and Vids
Oh this is gonna be good. -
Lol.... If you're out doing wheelies to get likes, you're a douche. If you're that insecure that you need to hide behind motorcycle stunts to get that oh so badly needed validation from strangers, then you should maybe work on you. Your personality, or at least the way you present yourself on here, from your dipshit name (unless you are actually a soldier) to your cocky bullshit attitude tips your hand and exposes you for the little twat you are. People like Todd because he has the hookup on the midget hookers, blow and no-bake cookies.

bike Suzuki Bandit 600, Great Condition F/S or F/T

Not a full exhaust system, that's a stock suzuki header. -
I mean, I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life but go for it....

Get ass end in the air and check lateral play in wheel....if your wheel bearing is shot out, it will not be able to sustain a right angle between the axle and the wheel, causing your disk to rub the brake pads on the inside of the caliper when you turn one way and the outside when you turn another.....I know it's a stretch but it's possible. Put a dial indicator up against the rim and see if there's slop in it.

You also have a chain and sprocket generating heat that share a hub with the rotor....heat conducts pretty easily through metal. Shoot your rear sprocket, see if it's the same temp.

Proper tools and a Honda factory service manual will go a long way to making this task easier. Engine overhauls aren't that difficult, it's mostly knowledge and experience driven. Thing is, in order to check your valve adjustment the motor has to be assembled so you can check the clearances between the cam lobes and the lifter buckets. As previously stated as long as the heqd isn't beat to shit and there isn't a million miles on it, I wouldn't worry about having seats recut. Just get some lapping paste and a lapping tool from AutoZone. Lapping paste is grease that contains abrasive dust, usually diamond, that you put between the valve and the head, then you spin the valve and it polishes it's own perfect seat into the head. Watch a few videos, you basically do it by ear.

Why are some bikes so much heavier than they should be?
Gixxus Christ! replied to redkow97's topic in Daily Ride
Same with my heavy ass bandit. Motor was designed in the 80's (but was arguably the hottest shit on the road back then) stiff, heavy steel tube cradle/perimeter frame. Hauls balls and stays very well planted but handling isn't light like an ss or rr.... But I'll trade the lighter control input for more comfort and stability at speed. -

Gixxus Christ! replied to redkow97's topic in Daily Ride
Gs500 is heavy because it's a budget shitbox. That means a double cradle frame made from cheap, durable, heavy steel and a rehash of a motor engineered in the 80's, possibly 70's... the 500 is just a rebore of the 450..The gs500 was obsolete before it even went to market. Antiquated casting techniques, ancient metallurgy, a design that was more utility and durability oriented than performance and weight savings. It does what it was designed to do well, and that is to be cheap reliable transportation that is easy to work on, but is no quicker than a ninja 250. -
You win the internet today.

Lapping the valves should be sufficient. If you recut the seats you should also get the valves themselves ground and then lap them in. None of this replaces the shims, those are on the other side of the head.

I didn't even make the cut? I must be doing something right.

So I'm guessing this happens during lane changes on the freeway? I can't see anyone making a turn requiring a signal above 5k rpm in any gear on any gsxr.

Slayer is best for annoying neighbors at 2am.

Gixxer bro package. Smaller mirrors, undertail kit, power valve delete, yosh or 2 bros slip on, knick off pazzo levers, led signals, various stickers.

I fucking organize and host the spring circle jerk. Does there really need to be any other reason to make me a moderator? For fucks sake man. Get your God damn shit together.

Cool suzuki commercial.

Wow. That escalated quickly. If you wanna bring it by I'll see what I can do, but my usual rate of $50/hr will apply.

There's your problem, you're running 24 fucking volts to your turn signal. Chase down the blinker module, remove and bridge circuit with anything metal to activate signal, if it lights up and fuse doesn't blow, replace blinker module. If it does blow, theres a dead short somewhere, likely in the wires leading to the dash indicator light where they pass up by the steering head.
