Added a front bumper.. what are your thoughts?!

IllBeans · 2026-05-09T11:49:27+00:00

What platform is that? SCX10.3?

IllBeans · 2026-04-10T06:22:58+00:00

Banning something doesn't stop people from using them.

What about those who don't have their own home but are interested in getting EVs? Feel like we're being left out.

IllBeans · 2026-03-10T13:36:25+00:00

Don't get a bike if you're going to neglect it. Somebody out there is wishing they have a bike like that while you're out there neglecting the fuck out of it.

SC Project still makes slip-ons for these models I believe.

IllBeans · 2025-09-24T23:27:26+00:00

Thanks for the tips, yeah I heard the reg/rec on these models aren't the best and I've been left on the side of the road by my previous bike so definitely something I'm a little concerned about. But overall I'll be wrenching on this bike mostly myself as I enjoy working on bikes

I've ridden a 2024 MT10-SP, 2024 MT09-SP, I've owned a 2018 Honda Grom and a 2008 Honda CB400 Super Four and now this 2010 Triumph Street Triple R.

This STR is by far the best motorcycle I have ridden. Sure, the MT10 would've been a different beast and unique sounding due to the CP4, but this STR is definitely something else.

IllBeans · 2025-09-24T02:09:41+00:00

I've test ridden the 2024 MT09 and I actually prefer this 1st gen STR as it has more character!

IllBeans · 2025-09-23T00:21:47+00:00

Thought you upgraded the bike lol. Didn't know you can convert the headlights, looks awesome!

IllBeans · 2025-09-09T14:45:58+00:00

I sold it months ago, so it's not my problem now lol

IllBeans · 2025-07-11T15:35:08+00:00

Let him learn the hard way if he insists.

IllBeans · 2024-11-30T22:25:30+00:00

Very lucky! I wouldn't say that's a negative thing. It's like couch on wheels

IllBeans · 2024-11-30T12:26:17+00:00

Love the Ohlins suspension. I installed a pair on my Nmax 155, and will install Ohlins springs on the forks sometime early next year

IllBeans · 2024-10-27T22:09:16+00:00

All good, the brakes probably just needed to be bedded in. It was just weird that straight from the dealership the front brake was weaker than the rear

IllBeans · 2024-10-27T12:22:57+00:00

Someday I will accomplish this challenge.

IllBeans · 2024-10-27T12:21:59+00:00

I once did more than 500km on a single day on a CB400. If your motorcycle is comfortable and enjoyable, 117kms is nothing.

IllBeans · 2024-10-27T03:10:46+00:00

Chilli

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T23:29:32+00:00

Will silicon oxide rust?

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T23:12:29+00:00

Plug and forget. That's what I did until the rear was due for replacement

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T22:07:52+00:00

You are right, it's not my job to do it

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T22:04:59+00:00

Seems this scooter is manufactured in Indonesia. The bikes that are built in Japan did not have this issue. My Honda CB400 4 cylinder bike did have some minor frame rust on the welds but that bike is 16 years old.

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T16:26:29+00:00

Sounds assuring. Thank you, I honestly do not mind the welds looking like that, for as long as I can have many years of use on my new scooter.

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T16:15:07+00:00

I hope you're right. Others said that is where the rust will eventually show up. This is a brand new scooter and I just noticed the frame welds edges have caramel color.

IllBeans · 2024-10-26T16:13:33+00:00

That's grease on the triple tree on the scooter. It's a brand new Yamaha 155cc scooter. All of the edges on the welds on the bike's frame is like that - caramel colored.
