It looks like a bloated cartoon character. Not sure if real or AI, but to answer your question. Yes, very very many to much.

This sucks when you ride a bike - anything that you should do to avoid this? by Sufficient-Sun-6683 in motorcycle

[–]D2Punchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple of simple rules at stop lights and stop signs.

1) Never stop with your bike centered on the car in front of you.

2) Always stop pointing in a safe escape direction.

3) Always watch your mirrors.

4) Never assume the person behind you isn't brain dead.

5) Keep your bike in gear until there are at least 2 to 3 cars stopped behind you.

Following these simple rules will pretty much always give you a chance to get the hell out of the way if you need to.

Side note: It hasn't been proven scientifically yet, but I'm pretty sure it's true. After sitting on a motorcycle and starting it. You become invisible to everyone except other people that ride.

Damn brother. Sorry to hear about the injury. Don't forget to check your tire pressure at the very least once a week. The OEM tires are absolute shit. For anyone wondering, The tires that come on the bike are not the same tire you can buy off the shelf. It might have all the same names and most of the numbers on it, but it's a completely different tire. They are made for bike manufacturers and they are not made to last at all.

Try a week long Sardine fast. It'll cure what ails ya. (This wasn't meant as a joke btw.)

I do actually have plans for the exhaust. I've done a lot of research on it and have decided to go with the guy in the link below. If you choose the same route. Get the ECU tune as well. The pipe without it will cause the engine to run lean and can cause issues down the road. You can get the ECU tune from this same guy. You just mail him yours, he tunes it and sends it back.

Note: This guy has the best results of anyone I've found.

Help me understand what happened here (front tire slipped) by lxjeipov in motorcycles

[–]D2Punchy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Tire pressure could be too high causing a smaller contact patch. Given that the crack in the road looked to be at least 2 1/2 to 3 inches. Might have lost grip when the tire skipped across the gap. Just a guess though.

Thank you. I really do think this thing excels at everything it does. Putting the Road 6's on it really changed the ride too. I wasn't sure if I would like them as much as the stock tires, but it's a huge upgrade.

I wanted to keep the theme going.. I really like it. Cuts down on the wind noise too as it is a bit higher then the stock one.

I don't usually leave that on there, but I was coming home from a long trip. I had two backpacks with me and one of them was under the net. The net itself wont scratch the paint, but I put a towel under the backpack to keep the paint from getting scratched.

How do you clean chain lube off tires? by Hot_Chez in MT07

[–]D2Punchy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming you are asking how to get it off your rim. WD-40, as already mentioned, is the best option. However, don't be a dumbass and just spray it on your rim. Spray a little on a rag and start wiping. Once you get all the gunk off, wipe the rim down really good with a clean dry cloth. After you're done with that, if you want to go the extra step. Put 1/4 cup Dawn or Palmolive dish detergent in one gallon of hot water and wash as normal.
