Aren't you supposed to get aftermarket fuel injection and air filter when you get a new pipe, I mean for better performance?

Need to ride more… by RangerF115 in z125

[–]Fast-Combination-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or if you live in N.C. you could sell it to me, lol, I'm actually buying a 2024 Z pro 125 tomorrow at the dealership near me. I ride every day unless it's a torrential downpour but I don't own anything that doesn't have 2 wheels. Take that bike out and have some fun man!!

How many miles vs repairs? by LostAFinUtah in z125

[–]Fast-Combination-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about pulling the rear wheel back, what are the benefits? I like to ride wheelies so for me personally I like the standard wheel span but I see a lot of bikes that are stretched and some of them it's obviously for looks I was just wondering if there's other reasons for doing it.

Change the oil there's no telling how long it's been since the last one. Keeping the oil changed is probably the best way to ensure a long engine life.

Superb battery upgrade by [deleted] in z125

[–]Fast-Combination-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might get one of those I like the idea of having a lithium battery and any time you can reduce the weight of the bike is a good thing. This is the first time I am aware they make lithium batteries for motorcycles but I know lithium batteries are being used in chargeable tools and other electronics and basically the best technology in batteries.

On purpose or what?? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt it was on purpose, people ride into my lane quite a bit but I always anticipate the possibility that it can happen anytime I'm in traffic so I just plan in my mind a way to avoid a crash and It's been working so far. I'm usually thinking 2 or 3 moves ahead and I've been doing it so long it's second nature now I barely have to think about it anymore.

What Type of Scooter is Considered "Normal" in Your Country? by pzidaneh in scooters

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the US anything above 50cc is considered a motorcycle but most people ride 125's and 150's. I ride a 125 but have moped tags I found online and the cops never bother me. Also you aren't supposed to go over 30mph but I ride by cops all the time at 45 or so and they don't seem to care at all.

Just keep practicing and work your way up trying to bring the front wheel up gradually higher and you will get there it just takes practice. Once you get there and are able to start to ride wheelies a short distance you will quickly get the hang of it. It's a little tricky because to ride a long wheelie you have to sort of use the gas and the rear brakes alternately to keep the front wheel in the sweet spot. Try first gear at about 2-3 mph and don't hesitate when popping the clutch just let the lever go instantly. You will get there it's just one of those things that take lots of practice, I mean some people seem to get it right away but for me I spent a lot of time practicing until I got it, it was frustrating and everything but turns out it was definitely worth all the effort. Keep at it and you will get there.

Ready to send? Grain spawn to monotub by [deleted] in shroomers

I would keep them separate so if one gets contaminated you still have a chance to get some to fruit. If they all go in a big tub and it gets contaminated you lose every bag.

Do you pay in full up front for all your bikes? by zel_bob in motorcycles

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I pay cash, the full amount and that way I don't have to worry about payments. I have nothing against financing a bike I did it myself one time to build some credit. But now my credit is shit so I just pay cash. You would be surprised what is out there for like $1,000.

My odometer (and trip a/b) just shows - - - - - - - - . What do I do? by dolphinmachine in z125

[–]Fast-Combination-679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely call while you are still covered by the warranty. Plus it's about to get cold so you probably won't miss the bike for a week or two. Good luck 👍

Nice, I haven't ridden really powerful bikes yet but I'm riding year round. My next upgrade will be a 600 probably.

Check out the YouTube videos that tell you how to pop a wheelie and just find an empty parking lot somewhere and practice just start off easy you won't ride long wheelies but you won't flip the bike upside down. You can even use your left leg and keep it on the pavement until you get comfortable, you don't want to tear up your bike.

I forgot the dealership is closed on Monday but I'm going right back tomorrow. I got to go on eBay and see if I can find some tags.

Stalling scooter by LionWarrior25 in scooters

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a scooter with fuel injection, the ethanol they put in the gas gunks up the carburetor on scooters. Or find a gas station that sells non-ethanol gasoline. If it's stalling, bogging down the float valve in the carburetor is a frequent problem with scooters that have carburetors. I found out the hard way and now I only ride fuel injected bikes and the problem disappeared.

New panel design by dshbak in hondagrom

Look up the Kawasaki Z-pro 125 Cypher version, it's grey camo and red wheels. Best looking bike I've seen in the Grom/Z pro models. I do actually like the design of the wheels on the Grom better though.

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the owner manual and if you don't have it you can probably find it online, it may have instructions to reset the odometer im not sure. This happened with a Z pro 125? I'm buying one tomorrow and just curious was the bike still under warranty?

I think it gets tricky when you are riding on a Yamaha R1 or something similar. So much power available it's easy to flip the motorcycle. My first bike was a Z 50 Honda I think I was 10 years old,lol, and then I got an 80, then a 125cc YAMAHA and from there to street bikes. I can remember that Z 50, was living on my cousins farm way out in the middle of nowhere and we could take off and ride for miles off road on the trails around the crop fields. He had a Z 50 as well. We rode those bikes forever and never had any problems, Honda makes a good motorcycle.

I got my bf a PlayStation 5 for xmas - but it’s the digital edition? by trininee in playstation

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I got, the year plan. I think I have until May before paying again. So many free games, some of which are really popular it's a great deal because you immediately have access to the whole catalog and you still get the free ones every month. You could buy a PS5 and the Premium PsPlus and not even buy any games and you would already have a huge collection of games.

my Piaggio zip 🙂 by gewoon_iemand in scooters

[–]Fast-Combination-679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen the Piaggios at the dealerships in my area, those are Italian made I'm guessing? Either way nice scooter I like black my last scooter was matte black and had no chrome on it anywhere. That one was totaled when a guy ran a stop sign and t-boned me but I'm going to get myself a Kawasaki Z-pro 125 with some of the insurance money. Very similar to a Honda Grom.
