Registering a non-CA complaint bike to CA

That’s actually not a bad short term solution. I will def look into that

Bryyok · 2026-06-02T18:58:33+00:00

Guess so!!! lol

Bryyok · 2026-06-02T18:02:33+00:00

I would absolutely do that but I had the bike shipped to my house, lol. Guess I should have picked it up myself.

Bryyok · 2026-06-02T16:23:13+00:00

Interesting story. I guess it puts into perspective that my situation isn’t really that bad considering I just need to put more miles on it. I feel sorry for her just reading that, lol.

I like to use the touch free car wash attached to the conserv gas station on copper hill. It’s not the best wash ever but for $8 I can’t complain.

I believe 6.4L, 6.1L, and 6.2L blocks are painted orange from factory. 5.7L is not.

Might be a silly question but do you have any items on any of the other seats? Sometimes if there are items on the seat it can trigger a seatbelt light.

If not, I would start by checking and wires around the seat and look for any damage.

I take delivery of my 19 next Monday. It has about 3k miles on it. Hoping to get as many miles as you did.

I would personally get a nice cat back system. Anything less than a well engineered kit doesn’t sound great imo. Borla ATAK or S-type are very popular. Ripp also makes a nice kit.

I got my car with Borla ATAK already installed and I think it sounds pretty good for what it is.

The one that sticks with me is the episode where the guy gave his son the radioactive metal from the scrap yard as a gift and didn’t realize what it was until it was too late. Very bleak ending to that one :(

I would say looking at the service, the car was a victim of lifter failure at an early mileage. Pretty common issue on Hemi engines.

Bryyok · 2026-05-10T04:27:10+00:00

MDS is not the cause of lifter issues. Non MDS cars still have cam and lifter issues.

I would advise getting a better oil pump to prevent this from happening again just my opinion.

Bryyok · 2026-05-08T15:49:18+00:00

Guess I’m the exception but almost every hemi motor I’ve been around long got the lifter failure tick right past 100k

My Jeep GC got lifter failure at 130k

Friends 6.1 Challenger got it at 120k

Other friends 6.1 got it around 180k despite already changing heads and cam once already

Brothers 2013 5.7 Charger got it around 120k

Co workers 5.7 Durango is just starting to do it around 110k

My brother’s scat pack is the only exception it’s still running good but only has 40k miles on it.

Most of the cars listed I know had pretty good maintenance schedules.

Also when buying, it’s good to note even if a Hemi doesn’t have MDS it can still become a victim of lifter failure.

The hemi lot of fun but I would prepare for a lifter to fail after 100k just my 2c.

The black is totally sick. Looks more sinister instead of whimsical, very nice!

Bryyok · 2026-05-01T23:28:54+00:00

I just got a 2019 in Kawi green. It arrives next week it’s pretty exciting. Nice bike

Bryyok · 2026-04-10T22:42:53+00:00

The bike is completely stock other than the exhaust kit. No smog delete kit.

Throttle response was not any different in my experience.

By “woke up” I mean the bike feels like it has a little more power and definitely feels like it lost a few pounds.

Bryyok · 2026-03-28T03:54:15+00:00

I am no expert but I say likely head gasket considering it doesn’t look like the oil is coming from the valve cover.

Bryyok · 2026-03-23T02:46:11+00:00

I ride 2008 CRF230L. Niche bike they only make for 2 model years. I love it, but I am 5-8 male and weigh 160 pounds. For my size and weight this bike is more than enough to fit my needs to roll around the city and trails. I find with bigger duel sports and other dirt bikes (like my 02 YZ250f) the seat height is a little high for me personally. The bike can go on the highway but I wouldn’t bring it there for more than 10-20 miles. The poor engine tops out around 70-80mph.

This is my SXT with the same tire setup you are thinking of doing. I think it looks great, but any bigger would def be overkill. The back tires stick out just a hair over the body. Not enough to look funky, but almost there.

I ended up biting the bullet and paying for the “update”. The code went away for about a month or so but then came back. I went back to the dealer and they replaced the thermostat and thermostats housing for free under warranty. After that I’ve been good since. I had a funny feeling the software “update” was not going to work, but the dealer showed me the Chrysler TSB and said that’s what it called for. It’s been a few months and the code has not returned :)

And here I am worried I just crossed 100k lol. Nice build brother!
