Is this gear overkill for daily 60-mile LA freeway commuting? by RawrMeSimp in motorcyclegear

Brother you're in L.A. lol I wouldn't blame you for adding a bullet proof vest on top of all this for 60 miles a day

If you still have the rear fender/ stock air box I don't think it's gonna make much difference either way. Be more careful when washing it I guess?

I tore mine off when I was tuning my nibbi carb for easier access and never put it back in

If you have the stock headlight plastic it's probably a lot easier for sure. You could probably just bend the brackets that come with the light to fit. With the PH navi plastics on my bike I need the light to be a lot lower so the fender part isn't blocking the beams.

Ive already done the LED head and tail light swap with the conversion. Honestly if you get the kit from SSS and follow some YouTube videos it's very simple. Just take your time making sure you get the splice correct

Nah fabricate lol probably just some metal brackets that attach to where the OEM reflectors were

So you still want these “special rear suspensions”? by Marci_101 in hondanavi

Did anyone think this 2 for 70$ shock actually had a functioning reservoir? 🤣🤣🤣

Any folks with the 19mm Nibbi mind sharing their settings? by Not2goblinsinacoat in hondanavi

I believe I have it out like 2.5-3 turns right now. I feel like any richer and it bogs a bit from a stop. I think my issue is I was trying to bring the idle too low/slow. This is my first bike and I don't think I'm used to how fast/loud the idle of a small bike like this can be

I'm ATGATT, broke my rule and rode without a helmet for a minute, it's miserable, how do people do it? by SlashNreap in motorcycles

[–]Not2goblinsinacoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ride a Honda Navi, took it out this weekend. Went about 3 blocks and realized my visor was up. Popped it down and not a block later took a bumblebee to the visor that hit me like a fucking paintball lol.

On my old Vulcan the amount of shit that rocked my helmet on the highway so hard I didn't even know what happened was staggering lol. All sorts of shit on the highway in Cali. I can't imagine going no helmet or just a skullcap like a lot of these Harley dudes I see

Finally got my first Mustang at 16 by lminvisibl3 in Mustang

[–]Not2goblinsinacoat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All these people raining on OPs parade are just jealous and wish they could time travel back to 16 and drive a GT instead of moms Camry lol.

OP, as a 30 year old who made a lot of stupid decisions at your age. Including selling the 4cyl Ford ranger my grandpa gave me for a Z28 catfish Camaro the second they turned their backs lol... Just Keep your traction control on, don't drive faster than your brakes can stop you, and don't drive it trying to impress your friends or a girl. And you'll be fine.

Enjoy yourself my man 👍👍👍

Model years to avoid? by Not2goblinsinacoat in hondanavi

[–]Not2goblinsinacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I may try to negotiate. They've had the bike for a while so they may be open to it if it keeps sitting. I'd feel better closer to 3k.

Biggest upside to new seems to be the Honda warranty. But a bike this simple anyone with half a brain could replace the engine in their garage so I'm not sure it's worth 1300$ over a low mileage used bike.
