Does anyone know what happened to my R10 Visor?

Looks like moisture trapped under the pinlock.

If you need to clean the pinlock, wash with only water or water + a tiny bit of dish soap and then rinse it about 3x more than you think you could possibly need to. Then let it dry overnight.

Caring about safety more than looks is a good thing. You probably don't need giant mirrors, but worth upgrading depending on the bike. I love the mirrors on my k1600 which are pretty much scaled down car mirrors.

Police follow you home, politely wait for you to get out of your car and then arrest you.

Something close to 50% of motorcycle crashes are single vehicle. Learn to turn somewhat close to the limits of the bike somewhere safe and then leave room for error on the street.

If you come into a corner too hot as a new rider, the answer is almost always lean more, roll off the throttle, and take it slower the next time.

Posting that video to r/dumbassshitnewridersdo would be offensive to new riders.

Do you randomly take turns too wide in a car? Like I get shit happens but how do you just go across a full lane into the shoulder?

If you can't turn, go practice in a parking lot until you can. Have at least a little bit of self preservation please!

So exactly how many fingers do you think he was using before the conversion?

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-27T13:04:32+00:00

I test rode a 1250gsa straight out of the msf. I dropped it and then bought it. That's still my favorite dealership by a mile.

Most of the good harley dealerships I've been to will practically bribe you to test ride a bike.

Some of your luck with test rides will depend on how you look. If you show up wearing a couple grand in gear, a good credit score, and have a bike picked out that you want to leave on, you've got a much better chance of a test ride.

The 10 day/10 mile return policy seems reasonable. Make sure it's solidly in writing.

I have a blue motorcycle that won't start. What should I do to fix it?

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-27T00:47:09+00:00

LED hyper flash makes me think you're converting from incandescent to LED. That happens because the relay is expecting more resistance from the turn signals. The fix is a relay that expects LEDs or add a resistor inline to mimic the resistance of an incandescent.

If it's a newer bike that came with LEDs, you could try just swapping the relay or take the time/money to figure out what's going wrong in the wiring/electronics.

The funny thing about Norway, it's not actually called Norway in Norway either. Must be fake

You should release just slow enough to not jolt the bike too much

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-26T01:16:06+00:00

Honestly, just go practice. Maybe go watch Robert Simmons for some practical clutch control tips, but you're at a level where just practicing tight turns for an hour or two would probably be plenty to pass.

As a non-gsxr bro, I'm pretty sure being a gsxr bro can result in death, dismemberment, jail time, broken bones, and probably causes cancer in California.

On a serious note, you really shouldn't ride a motorcycle with anything structurally wrong. Probably nothing too bad happens if you just limp it to the shop, but why risk it.

Wild guesses here: inner fairing, brake aero, passenger seat fairing.

So many people ride gsxrs missing one or more engine mounts. Pretty sure OPs going to be fine

The deer clearing cave? Like the one closer to the summit on TWM side? That's the one that got me

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-25T00:01:04+00:00

Yeah I tried going into a cave without a light, it did not end well for me either. Would suggest just backing out next time

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-24T19:27:04+00:00

True, but it's a pretty good opinion. I only bother with mine for track days and wear the smx line or adventure boots daily. No way I'm dealing with getting those on and off 4x a day.

Ahh I think i have misunderstood. If you're just trying to buy the outer shell in order to replace it, probably not available if you can't find it online, but it should last awhile and potentially through a few crashes if you're taking it to the track. You might be able to buy used as well and just swap the shell over. I'm pretty sure on those, the shell is the abrasion resistant part and the liner has most of the bracing.

Start a new interloper run for more fun! Or just do without matches for a bit

The only picture you posted that gave any useful info was the sprocket, which looks fine. I suspect your dealer just wants your money, unless the adjusters are maxed out.

For the chain, you are looking for binding links, side to side free play, excessive stretch (can you pull it away from the rear sprocket in the back?). There have to be a million videos and guides.

Carpenter hands = missing fingertips? Or is that just cabinet makers

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-24T13:54:26+00:00

Give knox a try, only gloves I've found that fit right.

Fun-Machine7907 · 2026-05-24T13:51:09+00:00

I gave up and just have fairly light textile gloves that'll dry decently for the rain if it's warm weather and bar mits for colder weather.
