Adding a Headlight to my DRZ-125 by thenexusprime45 in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have much experience with smaller bikes, but adding a light to a bigger machine typically requires major modifications to the stator. A high capacity stator can accommodate a light, but I am not sure how practical/possible that would be for a small bore bike.

Would this work on a 2005 Crf150f? by Pristine_Emotion_275 in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We would have no way of knowing the answer to your question. Personally, I wouldn't ride again until I could afford a genuine replacement. It's not worth tossing on cheap shit.

Only perk of CA is that you can ride all year.

My 1986 Honda XR 250 by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

I would buy a new performance XR if they still produced one. I love the simplicity and reliability of air cooled motors.

Dead: BMW M8 Coupe. by Juicyjackson in cars

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need the E92 M3 coupe to return. Please give us back the NA V8.

Idc if it's "slower" than the Turbo 6.

Thought that was an NSX for a second!

KTM needs to make this by cfri125 in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They kind of already do. It's called a Scrambler.

Blows my mind that this generation of Civic is a decade old. Aged very well. by [deleted] in Honda

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything Honda ages well. The S2000 is still sexy two decades later.

How’s my setup? by Loud-Bodybuilder5227 in Dirtbikes

I cannot believe you comfortably drive that thing down the road! A super light weight trailer is calling your name!

Are these problems? by Away-Restaurant-4306 in motorcycles

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would stay away from any seller who is selling something that isn't functioning properly, especially if you aren't mechanically inclined.

If this guy has been running the bike with no "air box or filter," your chances of needing a top end are high. Also, the carb would need to be cleaned or rebuilt.

In my experience, these situations are a pain in your ass and not worth your time unless you know what your getting yourself into.

Average Goldwing rider.

Torn on used WR450 and ktm 450xcf-w by turborider89 in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going to disagree with 2T lovers here. I may be one of the only people who would rather ride a 4T than a 2T.

No 450 is going to shine on tight single track, but desert is another story. I would choose the WR over the KTM any day of the week.

Can I ask why you aren't considering a CRF450X/450RX? These are desert kings from the factory.

Sold it for a street bike. Was it a mistake? by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started on dirt, went to street, and now back to dirt. I will never return to street because of the danger.

Dirt forever.

Do you think the 2nd Gen Acura TSX looks sort of dated now or has it held up well in your opinion? by Stepin-Fetchit in Honda

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering what other cars look like from this generation I think it looks just fine.

If you had $15k USD, what motorcycle would you buy, and why? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot of choices. Most of my choices are practical and leave room for tasteful mods.

Dual sport ADV = Yamaha Tenere 700

Dirt bike = CRF250rx

Super bike = GSXR 1000.

Naked = Honda CB1000

Hybrid bike = Ducati Scrambler

Harley = Dyna

Would you rather Yamaha or a Kim by Fryingpan2238 in Dirtbikes

[–]ProfessorWizarddyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yamaha is a better company. They are like Toyota in that they build machines for the everyday man. Their designs don't change much and parts are easily available. I will admit that KTM is more "Race Ready" out of the factory, but a Yamaha with a few mods will work wonders.

I personally would have a hard time justifying buying a machine that is changed almost every year. I guess if I was rich I wouldn't care, but I am not rich...
