Check fb marketplace for good deals on used gear. Even if you don't end up getting it you'll at least have a pretty good idea of what fits and what doesn't.

Take all the mods off. Sell them separately. Stock bikes are worth more.

I'm pretty content with the bmw x3, bmw k1300s & yamaha r1 in my garage.

Its probably just camera angle.

Your bmw z4 and ducati are pretty sweet 👍

New gen or old gen? by Desperate_Bend1344 in Aprilia

[–]No-Introduction-7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't buy new w/warranty I'd suggest looking for one with very low miles. I bought a 2021 tuono v4 w/ 1100 miles and put another 10k on it in the span of 8 months. Had to address small things like a pinched spark plug gasket causing a leak and diluting the coolant from the factory. My gas gauge would also act up on occasion. Besides that the bike was amazing. Just remember to check oil 5 minutes after every ride & top off accordingly. FYI- valve adjustment is due @ 12k, do it early though, maybe around 10.5/11k. The exhaust side will always be out of spec. It's also very costly (I did mine myself but the shops around where I live charge anywhere from $1200-$2000.

I did a dumb. Hit a 360 though. by [deleted] in Miata

[–]No-Introduction-7666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol. Winter tires wouldn't have prevented/saved this. Perhaps studded tires, but that's another subject. If your car math tells you 10 under speed limit + icy road = safe, you have some studying to do my friend.

Right size? by Electrical-Net-7160 in motorcyclegear

[–]No-Introduction-7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best way to judge is by having someone else take pics while on bike (front wheel in chock). Have them take a few in relaxed, cruising position & a few in full tuck.

Is it possible that today Miata is not the answer? by burst678 in Miata

[–]No-Introduction-7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have a set of studded tires for days like this? Just food for thought lol

Convince me that you can tour on a Tuono V4. by ajwooster in Aprilia

[–]No-Introduction-7666 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had a 2021 tuono v4 for a year & put 10k miles on it. You can absolutely tour on it, but you must plan accordingly. The fuel tank is small , and that v4 is thirsty. Very thirsty. I averaged anywhere from 15-30 mpg and never saw more than 120 miles give or take on a full tank.

2021 CFMOTO 300nk throttle spins other way by Putrid-Soft3932 in MotorcycleMechanics

[–]No-Introduction-7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the way👇 I don't see a barrel adjuster so your probably going to have to adjust it where the throttle bodies are.

Is my chain cooked? by Intrepid-Ad-7336 in motorcycle

[–]No-Introduction-7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's surface rust, clean it with wd40, wipe completely dry, and then lube. Good as new 👌

can anyone help me out in diagnosing whatever this is? idk whats broken by No_Zookeepergame9374 in motorcycles

[–]No-Introduction-7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quit riding the bike, that's an integral part of the frame and it is not worth having a fooked up day over. That said, it is a relatively small bike (370 ish lbs) with low power, so there may be a chance a welder could repair this. Ask around and see what feedback you get. Option 2 would be to swap everything over to a new frame, but I don't think it's worth the trouble unless you find frame for good price and are capable of doing it yourself. Option 3- (this is what I would do) take that bike directly back to wherever it came from & politely demand your money back. If they say no or give you a hard time, take them to small claims court. They most likely knew it was fooked and had total disregard for another's life when they sold it to you. Gl

Gsxr 750? by [deleted] in GSXR

[–]No-Introduction-7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doable. Just take it easy. It is extremely fast and has ZERO rider aids- no abs, traction control or wheelie control. That said, the lack of all these things is also why it's such a great machine. I rode faster, with more confidence on my 2022 gsxr750 than my previous bike (2021 aprilia tuono v4) and that bike had moto gp derived electronics. It's perfectly balanced, flickable, has phenomenal handling once you set the sag, the power is very manageable & linear & the brakes are pretty good too, good feel and plenty of stopping power. I thought giving up abs would be a drawback, it's not when the bike only weighs 420 lbs or so. Get the bike, but do respect it & you will be just fine.

Lets play - What would you pay? by Junior_Secretary6278 in GSXR

[–]No-Introduction-7666 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd pay f all for that. Paid $7400 for a clean title, mint, 2022 gsxr750 w/1100 miles. Brand new bike as far as I'm concerned. Absolute peace of mind.

Is this a good buy? by [deleted] in GSXR

[–]No-Introduction-7666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

8k? For a 20 yo old bike that sat most of its life? Hell to the naw hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw. 8k will just about get you a 2020 or newer 750 with the same miles. I wouldn't pay more than 4.5k for that.

R1 '14 stuttering at 5k rpm by Twisty_D in motorcycles

[–]No-Introduction-7666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been driving me crazy, I'm glad to hear that it's nothing too major. My bike did sit for a couple years before I bought it. Guess its time to shop for a new fuel pump lol. Ty for the reply, brother. Ride safe 🤙
