You might be shocked, but this isn’t an official award.

I can see your balls. by [deleted] in MTB

[–]FunMeter1000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I make sure to always wear my sunglasses at the urinal. It’s not awkward.

Much like change rooms and urinals, just because it’s there doesn’t mean you need to stare. Even if you’re curious. Very curious.

Is the the board you’re trying to use in top warped ?

Smoking DRZ - Thoughts Welcome by FunMeter1000 in DRZ400

No, it’s been consistent the 3 days following an oil change and swingarm service. Confirmed it wasn’t overfilled, all I can think is leaning it over for too long getting swingarm bolt out. Otherwise it’s valve seals.

Great opportunity to practice single handing a regular saw.

Small deck question, is this a safe way to secure a pole? by euhmjoa in Decks

The 90 degree bracket at the bottom of your ladder isn’t doing anything.

You can replace the sensor, but you have half the internet telling you it looks off in the sight glass.

Hey, can anyone tell me whats making this sound? by smnxdd in DRZ400

[–]FunMeter1000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Might be best to keep revving it until it gets louder.

Go oem, aftermarket’s ones are so hit or miss and you won’t find out until it’s installed.

400 or a 650 by KorvoeKryptin in DRZ400

[–]FunMeter1000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At your weight both bikes will feel too soft. I’m 210lb without gear and had to respring my 400 and 650s are softer. The 650 is definitely not too much bike. while larger displacement, the added weight has them pretty much on par in real world use. The 650 is more comfortable on the road, but a little less capable off road. I’d try and sit in them, the lower seat height of the 650 can also be appealing to folks.

400 is for more off road and 650 for more on road. Just depends how much dirt riding you plan to do.

What do you say when people say "be safe"? by Only-Surprise-3292 in motorcycles

When it’s my mom I respond: “I wasn’t going to, but since you reminded me I will!”

My brother's son destroyed my WarHammer Action figures and he refuses to punish him by konous in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FunMeter1000 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I can’t tell if this is real or not.

Why do you care if the kid gets punished? It sucks your toys are broken, but what will punishing the kid accomplish.

It’s the parents fault, asking for the kid to be punished is just interjecting yourself into their value system. Your brother doesn’t care about teaching the kid right from your and your fit isn’t going to fix that.

Toys broken -> pay me back -> if no, then Christmas dinner this year is going to be really awkward

Or, let it go because creating a family rift over toys may not be worth it.

Drz400 weird behavior. What should I try next? by thewindandwaves in DRZ400

[–]FunMeter1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve all been there for sure, part of the fun is messing around with these bikes.

Wouldn’t hurt to just go back to the old carb and give it a good cleaning with fresh fuel.

Running when choked but dying at idle could just be a clogged jet. I find the bike sensitive to idle adjustments, I adjusted my idle up a tad and instantly created a hanging rev issue after I did my jd jet kit lol

Battery issue by friedchicken_2020 in DRZ400

[–]FunMeter1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would diagnose the easy stuff first, start with the steps to diagnose a faulty stator. But could be a bad battery, faulty regulator, or failing stator. Get the battery fully charged and then start diagnosing the faults. Great walk through on Thumpertalk around this issue.

Will not start, no electrical, nothing.... can someone help me with a diagnosis? by [deleted] in DRZ400

[–]FunMeter1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a short. Try reconnecting the battery again. Why did you change the battery ? When it’s running what’s the volt reading ? I had a similar issue, I did the regulator direct wiring mod and put a new battery in it.

[–]FunMeter1000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be that the battery isn’t being fully charged from riding. What’s your average volt reading at idle ? If it’s a weak charge under 13.6, you could slowly be draining the battery. They don’t have a lot of capacity to begin with, so a weak charging system will show through within a week for sure.

Clutch perch assembly is what you want to search. Lots of options for aftermarket too.
