I feel like I should just use my race suit for non-destination street rides because it can fit the airbag without buying more expensive shit and it fits better than anything else I have but I can't get over how fucking dorky I think a one piece with a hump and elbow sliders on a slow semi-upright bike on the street will seem. What makes this even more neurotic is it's not like my other gear is exactly subtle and casual and a race back protector in a jacket with no hump makes you look like you have maximum gamer neck at all times.

>>27587536
Feel free to correct me physics anons, but I the reason sportbike tires arent perfectly rounded has somethingbto do with the fact that they are tubeless, so these geometries keep the air locked inside at speed where rounded corners would result in a rapid deflation, destabilization, and potentially a nasty crash.

>>27587527
does the leather gear inflate when ejected off your bike?

What the fuck tires have no sidewalls besides stance nonsense

>>27587561
I believe this is correct. Aditionally, the tire tends to do what can be described as "bunching" at speed, and there's a point (especially on race tires) where the max grip starts happening with a sliggt degree of slippage. So even with a hard ass lean at speed you bike may start to drift before you can a chance to scrape a footpeg or slider.

As you have seen from my 750, I am not speaking from experience, merely ovservation, but this is my best working understanding at the moment.

>>27587567
Sorry, I don't speak brown.

>failed my learners license for the third time today because i missed one mark on the road rules

its fucking over I will never drive a bike at this point. I have been driving a car since 2016 but a fucking learners test for the bike has me STUMPTed getting to the point where i actually think i am profoundly retarded

>>27587672
I started on one of these and liked it so much I actually kept it for years. Comfy, very reliable and easy to work on.

>>27587771
i took the stock bars off my gs once for aftermarket and it was the biggest fucking headache, everything was some odd bmw specific size or connection. if they're just standalone oxford grips or something they should be fine

>>27587802
Shit I had a feeling that's gonna be the case. I can see the aftermarket "unheated" replacement grips for the gs is 24mm, the bar is 22mm, the throttle side handle bar diameter is ??mm so I'm at a fucking loss here. I have a hunch the oxfords will not fit the throttle side, but I actually emailed them to specifically ask this.
I think I'll have to buy some heated gloves or glove liners.

Alright anons, if you could help me figure out what’s wrong with my bike I’d be very grateful. For context, it’s a 2014 Yamaha Roadstar Silverado 1700cc and fuel injected (pic related). The bike has 10,900 miles on it and it just started having this issue last week. So every time I ride it, the idle gets super low and the engine sounds like it’s struggling to stay alive. However, when I first start the bike it operates fine, idle is good, starter is fine etc. so I’m thinking it may be the high idle screw got loosened somehow? I’m not even sure it has a high and low idle screw, but that’s the only thing I can think of. Video link of the struggling sound below

https://streamable.com/89ttuo

>>27587995
I say trade it in. These fake harleys aren't really built that well. They're kind of meant to be rented.

>>27587993
Sure you can, just have to have the right tent. The kind where you first build the outer layer.
Setting up in the tain has some benefits too, like you can see where the water is pooling.

>>27587993
i use a tarp and bivvy so i just put the tarp up first

>>27587995
is this only when it warms up and goes away once it's cold?

>>27587995
Does she pull okay? Sounds like one of the cylinders is misfiring.
Could be spark plugs, plug leads, ignition coils, maybe a clogged injector? Maybe something as simple as syncing the throttle bodies?

>>27587995
There should be a screw somewhere near the throttle body that does it. Does the engine run fine when you're riding?

>>27588006
Yes, correct, I have a video of me starting it, and it runs absolutely fine. It’s when the bike heats up it runs horribly

https://streamable.com/hrsu2d

>>27587977
Hold firm, you should have no problem getting that number.

>>27588011
I haven’t really noticed a drop in power when applying throttle, it’s only when I pull in the clutch or let it idle

>>27588012
Yes it runs totally fine when riding

>>27588011
It could be, I think the service manual says to adjust the throttle bodies every 16k miles but it only had 11k but it may need adjustment now

>>27588018
I'd just set my idle higher and move on with my life if that happened to my bike.

>>27588011
>>27588018
Wait sorry I was thinking of valve adjustment

>>27588014
i'd be looking at the charging and ignition systems but i've also seen this with a dying fuel pump, although usually this will be a known issue for the model

>>27587953
yea i AM a simp for the pusszuki

>>27588018
I'd just change the plugs and sync the throttle bodies and see if that does 'er.
30 bucks and you'll eliminate some suspects.

I doubt it's the fuel system, I think the top end would die first before idle does.

>>27588020
Naah unadjusted valves wouldn't make one of your cylinders not fire at idle.

Saw a friend last night who rides a gsxr750, he said “I saw you earlier today riding wheelies by my house”
Other day sister in law texts me “I saw you out poppin wheelies today”
Eventually the police are gonna get me if I keep clowning. On Tuesday I did wheelies in front of 2 different unmarked police cars (sirens inside window). Both braked but didn’t turn around and get me.

>>27588029
>Cool bike bro but don’t be a pussy and ride it like it is.
based.
>>27588030
it can happen when the voltage to the pump drops at idle but you'd probably know if your model fuel pumps are susceptible to it

>>27588037
Makes sense, but I guess you'd have both cylinders struggling since only one injector is ever firing. Road star bro should put his ear to both cylinders and check if only one of them is acting up.
The "runs fine when cold" part is throwing me off a bit.

Boys I think I'm falling out of love with riding a bit. I'm tired of being on the road with lunatics, and I've ridden all the good roads around my home to death. Not sure where to go from here. Probably should try off road riding but I only just bought my latest bike about a year ago.

I'm getting my A2 license soon (i can ride anything under 35kw power or limited to 35 kw from a maximum of 70kw 70kw=93.8hp) and i'm very unsure what bike to look for/get. I have been riding an Aprilia rs4 125 for the past 3 years and it was great fun. I feel drawn in by the sense of adventure i could get with an off-road bike, especially since i will spend the summer very close to the woods, but i would also love some late night city shenanigans with a sport bike in the big city i live most of the year. I'm open to any suggestions or anything from someone with more experience and wisdom

How do you upshift without a clutch? I tried it once on a CBR600F, but must have done something wrong as I couldn't get the next gear to engage and the transmission made crunchy noises.

>>27588135
2k is decent. Like I said check out the gen 1 transalp, I checked a few listings are some are 33kw
Also the older bmw f650's are exactly 35kw, and should fit your budget as well.

Helmet, motorcycle boots, gloves, mesh or textile riding jacket depending on weather (it's usually fucking hot). I wear the same gear when going to work, minus the moto boots, gotta wear the uniform boots.

>Bros what do you guys wear for riding?
I try to wear gear, but aside from helmet/gloves/boots I only wear jacket/pants occasionally.
>Do you have different gear for casual vs spirited rides?
Yes.
>Leather vs textile?
yes.
>Pants??
kinda frowned upon around here to not wear those.
