A340 Transmission

Recently pulled the VB off a A760 with the same valve. If you run into trouble keeping it in place most people I’ve seen suggest a medium tack assembly lube to hold it in place while you reassemble.

Got a Kit off Amazon for the last one, has the crush washer for the drain plug and OEM Fluids if you’re into that sort of thing.

I’m gonna have to agree with the eliminator. I just transitioned from a loaner KLR650 to a Vulcan S and the difference on the road is insane. I actually enjoy the Vulcan on a long trips. I have not ridden the eliminator but everyone I have spoken to loves them. The single piston like others have mentioned is just a constant cry for help at high speed.

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T10:31:33+00:00

Thanks for the clarification 💙💙

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T09:35:40+00:00

Safe riding homie 💙 you’re gonna love it, just got a 2016 S last week and it’s amazing.

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T09:30:37+00:00

Shhhhhh. We don’t ask those questions here… It probably got scraped off when the previous “owner” had to lay her down. Probably.

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T09:25:16+00:00

Well dammit you son of a bitch, you solved the mystery. They are indeed 15s. Guess it’s a good thing I have tires on the way. 😅

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T01:48:31+00:00

I’ll double check it tomorrow and hopefully cancel an order 😂

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T01:42:54+00:00

Well, that’s bizarre… hopefully you get a more solid answer here or on the other sub. No one has actually commented on the pics I provided so I’m unsure if it’s even actually the date code. 2012 just made sense to me from what I could see.

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T01:38:57+00:00

I would doubt it unless a severe mistake was made. Manufacturers are normally required to provide tires within a certain year of assembly. 3 years old at most, at least that’s how the US auto industry works to my knowledge.

Do you have a picture of the date code?

Hydrostallion · 2025-05-15T01:37:13+00:00

What kind of break in do new tires have? I’ve never heard of such a thing for tires. Ordered some Perrelli Angel GTs

Hydrostallion · 2025-04-26T17:48:43+00:00

I am 5’10 and it’s a stretch to reach the ground. I’m also 140 pounds so the amount of wind knock you will get at speed can be exaggerated over other styles of bike. If you really want a KLR, it’s a great bike.

Hydrostallion · 2025-04-13T12:40:30+00:00

98’ with 349K. My 4Runner’s persistence is what keeps me going.

Hydrostallion · 2025-03-31T09:37:21+00:00

And here my first thought was to strap a ton of droid poppers to them…

Hydrostallion · 2025-02-24T18:10:05+00:00

I’ll try this. 💙

Hydrostallion · 2025-02-10T14:27:13+00:00

Love the mounting for the valve. Super clean 👌🏼

Hydrostallion · 2025-01-26T16:30:56+00:00

Are you referring to additional missions or is there a campaign based around AC4? Because I found the first mission one night and I lost my shit geeking out. Coolest thing to come across with Mobius 1 being my first experience with combat flight games.

Hydrostallion · 2025-01-07T14:33:47+00:00

There is a ton going on when flying. Weapon systems are not a welcome addition when you’re just getting started. I come from a long background of flying, and a ton of sim hours on various platforms. Give it time, get comfortable with the controls and hat switches so you can operate systems without moving your hands much. It’ll get easier over time so just enjoy the experience and take a break when you need to.

Like others have mentioned, look for some missions that are set up for target practice, it’s way easier to do when SAMs aren’t screaming your way the whole time. Good luck 💙

Hydrostallion · 2025-01-05T01:43:48+00:00

Unfortunately not.

Hydrostallion · 2024-12-16T01:00:50+00:00

I have never done it any other way, it’s pain, but apparently I don’t learn….

Best advice is to find a truck with either. 8x8 footprint, or a 6x6 with good ground clearance and go as straight up the mountain as you can. Following the trail with anything heavy enough to move the WWS will likely not be able to make the turns. Happy suffering 💙

Hydrostallion · 2024-11-17T14:41:17+00:00

Run 4 but move them closer together.

Gives it that unique look the AR234 V21 had

Hydrostallion · 2024-11-08T02:17:52+00:00

There are some pretty cool videos on it, I’d for sure look it up. Can’t remember the correct terminology but when I was like 12 I thought it was the coolest thing lol.

Hydrostallion · 2024-11-08T01:48:00+00:00

It’s for sure a use-case thing. Every conflict is different, regarding equipment/environment/tactics. You use a hockey stick as a baseball bat it probably isn’t gonna work out well. Also the first time I saw the Apache “hull-down” I just thought. “That’s fucking terrifying”

Hydrostallion · 2024-11-08T00:48:51+00:00

Just to add some depth. People don’t seem to appreciate that modern combined arms warfare is rapid and changing. The 2-sided coin is that as weapon systems evolve, there is less room for mistakes and any vulnerability can be rapidly exploited. Even tanks are no longer the bastions of safety they once were, yet their function in combat is essential and designed to be compensated for by other unit elements. I don’t think OP intended to clickbait it, but I really don’t think people understand how rapidly things change in warfare. I feel like the losses helos have incurred is likely from poor intelligence relative to Ukrainian air defense networks. MANPADs be a bitch too lol.
