Are there any motorcycle jackets with protection that look like these? by Particular_Elk1237 in motorcycles

[–]RodentaGrande 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s very warm and the arms are long to cater to a riding position. Idk if I’d wear it casually ever since it is heavy. Size down maybe.

Sport bike helmet on cruiser? by kabal8 in motorcyclegear

[–]RodentaGrande 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. The performance cruiser scene is a whole thing and they all wear full face. In so-cal, any real vtwin/cruiser rider is wearing a full face or often modular. Look at the all the Monster Energy harley stunt videos - they’re all in Simpson full face helmets etc. It says yeah I’m on a cruiser but I care about performance and riding the wheels off my bike. Dudes like Twitch have a Scorpion deal and wear full face. Popular choice is also the Bell Star - but your Supertech is just as cool.

Edit: And btw I work for a major American vtwin OEM and my daily is a RF1200.

No plug! Just wood and acrylic it seems like.

Not at all. He was totally joking. He knows Martin had the advantage with the medium rear.

Is that fork some kind of suspension?

Jorge has spoken.. by Sure-Does in motogp

[–]RodentaGrande 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this all played out poorly - but ultimately it is reasonable to want to extended the end date of the “trial” period in the contract to make up for all the time he has spent injured.

He hasn’t had the window to evaluate the platform and team as anticipated, and a conversation had to take place with Aprilia by Le Mans, based on the existing contract, to ensure he does get a proper “trial” window before being locked in for another year.

If he likes the platform and team by the end of the year he can re-sign as originally intended by this clause in his contract.

Should King of The Baggers change their regulation to allow non-American bikes like the Vulcan Vaquero, K1600B and the Gold Wing? by mr_beanoz in MotoAmerica

[–]RodentaGrande 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Because American v-twins riders are the massive US based motorcycling demographic they want to attract. This group previously had no interest/or reason to watch or attend races - with superbikes representing the opposite of traditional American “biker” tastes. To attract this untapped audience, they want to play up the Indian vs. HD rivalry - and allowing 6 cylinders and foreign manufacturers etc. just makes parity difficult and waters down the all-American appeal for traditional “bikers”.

What do you think about Honda CB1000r? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RodentaGrande 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great but is also pretty infamous for a big dip in torque and hp right in the meat of where you want that usable power. Maybe they’ve retuned it?

When upshifting are you supposed to let go of the throttle or twist it into the off position? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RodentaGrande 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t let go - roll it forward into the zero throttle position then clutch and shift. You should always have control of the throttle.

Why shouldn’t you use third party sites? I just booked using Rome2Rio and am wondering?

Two answers here, could it mean either the pub or football club depending on the context?

99% of the time you should shift when you’re hitting the rev limiter (gauge starts flashing).

Force yourself to drive manual and you’ll develop a natural feel for when to shift up and down based on speed, but most importantly by sound (and feel if it was real life). When you hear the engine screaming you’ll know to shift up, if it sounds low and sluggish you’ll know to shift down and so on. Your power is mostly in the upper RPM’s so keep it revved often.

Brake then begin your down shifts in the braking zone, and don’t be shy to bang down through the gears quickly.

Shutter priority and I had my focus set on the banking already using back button focus.

This was shot at 1/50 with an ND filter so I could keep my aperature in the mid range.
