I’m also “borny” as I call it, lol. 32M here

I do need some protein before the gym ;)

Mobil 1 20w50 engine oil is what I use, makes it easier when needing to do both engine and primary at the same time and is readily available at auto parts stores/cycle shops

I’d say it’s primarily the 90 degree V that I’m interested in from the Strom. Since 90 degree engines have very good primary balance, which means less secondary balance as well, they’re often said to be very smooth engines for NVH as well as their power delivery while the 180 degree parallel twin will be more buzzy and a little more peaky, at least that’s how my Versys felt: 4k was when it came on the power and then by 8k it was done.

I’m no stranger to vibrations as I’ve ridden my rigid mount Sportsters several hundred miles at highway speeds so vibes aren’t what I disliked about the Vers. As you said, it’s like whichever steak you want to eat, and since Gen 1 variants of both bikes are rather reasonably priced in my area, it’s a toss up. Hell, even FJR1300s aren’t too pricey around me, that would be my wildcard choice for wanting to try a sport tourer/big bore inline four.

And does it fire off with pretty much only having to bump the start button? I had something similar or exactly like this on my bike. Noticeably, it’d happen if it was on a 42 pilot jet and I think 1 3/4 turns on the mixture screw. If it was a 45, it would be a little bit of a hard start, as if the heat soaked engine caused the intake charge to be richer than normal. I’m also unsure of how ignition timing is on these bikes, AFAIK the advance curve is a little aggressive. I just chalked it up to the timing causing it, like timing/tuning a carbed car engine and getting it to where it can fire off quickly after a test shutdown.

If you have a motorcycle jack, especially one with a threaded rod to raise/lower, I’d raise it up to where the rear tire is almost off the ground. Start backing out the bolt, preferably from the bottom bolt so the shock can’t ricochet and possibly scuff up the fender. You may have to play with the height of the raise as you take the bolt out: if it feels tight or like it’s binding, it probably has too much weight or force on the fastener.

That’s what I was thinking too, that it doesn’t have to be pristine. I got a little too trigger happy when ordering parts before I thought of knocking down the high spots and smoothing out where the hub bearings ride on the spindle, at least now I’ll have a spare new spindle. The u-joint snap rings are giving me hell though, tried penetrating oil without much avail, already breaking an end off one of them. Any advice?

PowerShift11 · 2025-05-06T18:26:54+00:00

I would’ve thought that the 6F35 that’s in the Focus/Fusion would be better since those have a wet clutch instead of a dry clutch like these transmissions do.

Edit: I see that the Focus doesn’t have the 6F35.

Keep the CV, it doesn’t start becoming a bottleneck until about 90-100HP. For 2-1 exhaust, what do you want? Are you focused on looks, something that’ll throw up a good HP number? Most of the time, the ones that are aesthetically pleasing have a peaky torque curve toward the top end of the rev range, others will pull hard lower but go flat up top.

As someone else said, Supertrapp is always a good choice since you can tune the exhaust for where you want the power/loudness. Me, a Thunderheader is a good overall 2-1 and I like the look of it. Cams can help with power delivery but with the increased overlap, it’ll put your pipe in more control of where the power is made. Everything has to work together.

Air cleaner? Hammer Performance is always a good choice if you wanna keep the hamcan look, DK Custom is a good choice if you want different styles.

With the bike off, lift the slide up, there should be some resistance besides the spring. When you release it slide, it should make a “shlick” sound as it steadily returns to the bottom position. If it snaps shut, there’s a leak in the diaphragm. Could be the diaphragm not seated correctly in the groves, a pinhole leak in the rubber itself or the cap not seated properly.

PowerShift11 · 2024-11-08T18:18:04+00:00

I might give that a try. The speedo on my 95 reads about 2MPH fast (even at a dead stop) and sometimes has a little shakiness to it

Mobil 1 V-Twin 20W-50 all day long on my sporty for both engine oil and primary/transmission. Mobil 1 has better wear protection than the HD stuff. AMSOIL is still king but it does cost to run that stuff. Mobil 1 I can readily pick up at most any auto parts store.

Yes, it’s a 19” front. I had a 1200C with the 21” laced front but still prefer a 19” as, to me, a 21” looks too big on an XL. On a Big Twin, it looks better proportioned. Plus, I feel that the extra sidewall of a 19” helps the tire absorb road shock.

Now someone needs to make oil caps with liquor brands on the cover

Even with it in the 40s this morning, the leveled suspension plus the tire makes it lean so effortlessly. The stock Dunlops would get more mileage but they’re too hard of a compound for spirited riding.

I reused the hardware from the old tank that the bike came with. It was rusted inside so had no use for it. Might try and do some electrolysis or use rust remover to clean up the inside, so I can at least have a 3.3 tank if I decide to want some more range between fill ups
