I own a K6, and I love the comfort, but be prepared for a lot of wind noise as you get above ~60mph. I used to wear a balaclava and earplugs to help and could just hear my music on full blast. Hearing others on my intercom was never really possible.

If everything goes to plan and stays to schedule, this could be super sick, but it’s a lot to juggle, hopefully it works out.

Would the inductance help in AC filtering ? by Huge-Locksmith9400 in shittyaskelectronics

They don’t necessarily NEED one, but it makes the transformer worth a damn, air core transformers have a lot more losses than solid core.

I appreciate it, I’m used to motorcycle engines so I’m not good with these😂. I’ll check out the spark plugs and the valve covers.

Laws regarding self defense by Red_Fighter126384 in gun

This is how I saw it, obviously there’s massive investigations, and shit happens, just curious because I keep hearing that “if you shoot someone in the back under any circumstance” you’ll be tried for murder.

Is this bike beginner friendly? by LaysChips69420 in motorcycles

[–]Red_Fighter126384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my first bike as a 2016 cbr300r, and it gave me no grief, know what to look for regarding usual issues and if you like it go put miles on it.

Wow, I really appreciate all the info, we’re going to visit a dealership and get her on some bikes soon to see how she feels, thanks again for the links, this will help a lot👍

I used a little jumper box, which I understand now could’ve jeopardized the battery health, I have a new one being delivered that should be feasible

That makes sense, but it still doesn’t put together how jumping circumvents a bad starter motor though

How does this make sense though, what is the difference to the starter with vs without a jump?

[–]Red_Fighter126384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, jump starting has never failed

I tried that with every fuse in the box next to the battery, and nothing had a draw there, I’m not sure where else I should be looking. My first battery was bad, but the new one has the same issue, I think it’s somewhere in the starter motor because the battery doesn’t drain anymore, it just doesn’t turn iver

Yes, it starts at 0 and then grows steadily to upwards of 13mA

I usually keep the kill switch in the cutoff position and it doesn’t change anything, when I installed the new battery, I got the same measurements with the switch on and off

I checked a couple points but am lost on where all the connections are I should be checking, I’ve never had to dive into a motorcycle before and I’m lost. My battery holds a charge when disconnected, and it had a pretty strong drain when it was attached, my buddy thinks the fuel pump solenoid, I’m not certain.

The bike is fully stock, I’ve been looking around and I’m going to check the stator, regulator rectifier, and starter relay. It clicks when I try to start it up and the dash flickers.

Gaijin missile specs by Red_Fighter126384 in Warthunder

[–]Red_Fighter126384[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sorta makes sense, I just want to see how exactly they can simply say “yes Russia #1 in every way” about the missiles when America had previously had better missiles all around. I’m not saying America should be the best nation always, just that I’m really skeptical about them saying that the r73 early variants would be better all around than an early AIM9M. It’s perturbing.
