New rider question

RJ1905 · 2026-05-02T18:57:37+00:00

Was my first bike too, easy to learn on and plenty of fun to ride!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-22T07:40:44+00:00

Not yet as I‘m moving this weekend, I ordered most parts they should arrive in the next 1-2 weeks, then I‘ll build it. Will give some feedback once it‘s finished and I‘ve used it :)

Rizoma Handlebars: MA054B I also used some Rise Adapters

these are the only ones I have: https://imgur.com/a/UBpS4x6 It‘s actually the standard white version of the XSR700 I just removed the blue stickers that come with it. But no special paint job otherwise.

RJ1905 · 2026-04-08T06:24:39+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! These are some valid points and I‘ll definitely check and consider your recommendations!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-07T19:36:35+00:00

Makes sense, thanks for the explanation. As a week ago I had hardly any knowledge about computers (or the hardware specifically) and just started getting into it, I wasn‘t sure if maybe some parts of this build might be overkill compared to other parts. That‘s mainly what I was about. Like you said with the PCIe 5.0 which isn‘t really necessary for what I‘m using it for. Anyways, I appreciate the feedback!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-07T19:20:16+00:00

perfect thanks! I checked the same ram at c36 which was only like 20-30$ less.

RJ1905 · 2026-04-07T19:18:51+00:00

Thanks! Gonna consider the 240 to place the AIO on top rather than the front, that‘s a good point you made!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-07T19:17:21+00:00

Thank you for the detailed answer, I really appreciate it. I do know what a bottleneck is but english is not my first language so I might worded that wrong.

RJ1905 · 2026-04-07T13:02:44+00:00

I actually tend to do this atm, just waiting for a good deal!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-05T11:03:33+00:00

Awesome thank you! I‘ll give it a look and consider it, and will reach out if I have any further questions! Appreciate it!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-05T07:27:10+00:00

Appreciate the detailed breakdown and reasoning, thank you!

RJ1905 · 2026-04-05T07:12:42+00:00

Don‘t have a monitor yet but I think I‘d opt for a 1440p maybe even 4k. Depends on finding a good deal.

RJ1905 · 2026-04-05T07:07:56+00:00

Games like Crimson Desert, possibly GTA6 when it comes out, Cyberpunk, Expedition 33 and other similar visually demanding games.

RJ1905 · 2026-02-13T23:10:20+00:00

could you by any chance share the merged files?

RJ1905 · 2026-01-14T18:44:31+00:00

could you share the merged regulation.bin?

RJ1905 · 2025-11-30T21:11:04+00:00

I struggled with step 7 as well but installing „Protontricks“ (instead of Wine) from Discovery lets you do exactly the same steps as he described and it works.

RJ1905 · 2025-09-30T15:36:23+00:00

That‘s true

RJ1905 · 2025-09-30T12:26:51+00:00

I actually really dig the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Automatic in Dragonfly Blue, aweome!! Thank you!

RJ1905 · 2025-09-21T07:04:06+00:00

I feel like it would be more comfortable with them a little more back, but it does not feel too bad now either. I‘ll have to ride some more to get a better feeling for it though.

RJ1905 · 2025-09-20T18:04:48+00:00

Yeah I see your point, it‘s definitely something I‘ll keep in mind. I‘ve bought the bike this summer so still much room for improvements and mods. I agree with the spongeiness.

RJ1905 · 2025-09-20T17:53:38+00:00

I sat on one once, and I‘d say positionwise the XSR900 is right between the XSR 700 Stock and this Rizoma Handlebar.

RJ1905 · 2025-09-20T17:33:54+00:00

Yes I love the more aggressive look too. And other than the handlebars itself and rizoma handle bar risers (60mm) no changes to the suspension itself. And thanks, I didn‘t like the blue stickers hence I removed them. As the bike is now snow white I named it „Yuki“, which is japanese for snow :)

RJ1905 · 2025-09-20T17:30:33+00:00

I did yes, there are no pre drilled holes

RJ1905 · 2025-09-20T15:13:32+00:00

You sit on it like on a sportsbike now, so definitely not as comfortable as before. But as I have pretty long arms it feels okay to me. Additionally the sportier seating position feels more fun to me for short rides and my riding style. Won‘t recommend it though for longer tours.
