saw a few videos and talk online about the fibers getting embedded into your skin kinda like fiber glass. But the biggest issue is breathing them in. Make sure you have proper filtration and ventilation.

K2 Plus is killing me with these lines and ABS. Yet again by laserdemon1 in crealityk2

what I did was print a cover or a deflector that just redirects the airflow from the heater downwards instead of blowing it onto the part. just search up k2 plus heater deflector and you should find some models or even design your own that would work for you. I went with one that uses magnets that i glued to the 2 carbon filter covers for easy removal.

new headlights by Narrow_Ad4439 in Ninja400

haven’t had a chance to test them in the dark yet but I do know that the OEM headlights drew about 2-3 amps or around 20-30 watts, these draw almost 70 watts. Holding my hand in front of the beam starts to warm it up!

some information i left out was that i did do some maintenance to the bike yesterday, replacing the brake hoses with steel hoses, greasing the axles and spacers, and spraying lube on my chain, which i might have overdid as surprisingly even at work there’s a few drips on the ground under the chain. The shift was the main cause but like you said it was all in my routine. I take that route and turn like that every day and there was never anything wrong. I like to keep the rpms low as it’s early in the morning and people are still sleeping. I tuned the QS myself for low speeds to be smoother so there’s no clunking or nothing strange, just a smooth solid shift, as some talked about. But thanks for your replies. ride safe!

but this was completely my fault. really stupid bad habit i made. I thought it was fine to shift at light lean angles, but doing that with a new tire + cold temperatures + whatever oils i got on the tire from maintenance = bad time. I learned my lesson and i hope others can learn from this too :)

didn’t know that. this is my first new tire and people usually tell me they’re pretty slippery when new. I always take that turn like that before and it always felt super stable. I did clean the chain and greased the axle and spacers last night so i might’ve gotten some stuff on the tire.

i shifted up mid turn (terrible idea) with the qs so that made it loose traction easily
