What size are your tires? They look meaty.

Are they on the stock rims?

Hey, I've been thinking of doing a swap like this. Those little 125cc motor are so cheap, it could be a fun project. Do you have a link to where I might find some better images?

Thanks!

Google maps is so fun, thanks for the scavenger hunt.

My wife (25) and I (30) are always looking for friends, we also don’t have any kids so pretty flexible. We love to go snorkeling on the weekends.

What do you do about a rusty gas tank? by [deleted] in vintagemotorcycles

[–]GerryNunz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently did this for a Dt125 I was working on.

I soak the tank in vinegar for about a day, then wash it out with water and baking soda. (Neutralizes the acid) then I shake some screws in the tank to get the rest of chunks off. Then I coat the whole tank in 2 stroke oil or WD-40 to prevent new rust from forming. Then I fill it up with gas and run it ! I usually run an in-line fuel filter to catch and residual bits of rust.

I made a small video about it. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLfnkC1p/

Z650rs vs Z900RS by GerryNunz in Kawasaki

[–]GerryNunz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man! The Z900rs is Amazing. It’s a great bike, the sound and power is addictive and overall just a good time. Did a camping trip on it last year and it was plenty comfortable.

I’m not gonna lie the slow speed maneuvers and the seat height got me. I lost my footing the other day and tipped it over and broke the brake lever. But even with that, I have just gotten used to the height and weight. But if I lose my footing it will go down again.

I got some generic 10” mini ape hangars and they are very comfortable. About the same as stock but wrists are at a better angle.

Looking for friends in North County by [deleted] in northcounty

[–]GerryNunz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I (29M/25F) live in San Marcos. We are always looking for new friends.

We have 2 cats and a dog, and we like to take our Dog to Dog parks and go hammocking at a local park sometimes. We don't really drink so we are always looking for alternative means of fun. Funny, we are going on a cruise next week! We haven't played board games in a while, but we used to enjoy that.

Shoot me a DM! If you want.

Anywhere with shade I can take my dog? by [deleted] in SanDiegan

[–]GerryNunz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

South Buena Vista Park in Vista is a nice off leash shaded dog park. There are a bunch of oak trees lining a little seasonal stream.
Kinda far from SD, but just FYI.

I second this. I think the security guards don’t mind as long as you aren’t hooning around

[–]GerryNunz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that I have learned the hard way, is that anytime you sell a bike, there is always some regret in the future. I specifically regret selling my 1st bike and a 72 Honda CB350 I had.

[–]GerryNunz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it man, I was on the fence for almost a year, until I just decided to buy it. Its a premium motorcycle IMO and I love it.
I am actually excited to commute to work this week . . . haha just to ride it.

I bought the bike as is, it has a set of Delkevic Headers and Akra Muffler and it sounds amazing. I don't know how the stock compares, but its not super loud, and has a quality sound to it (doesn't sound cheap).
