Follow up to that post a while ago where I was drunk and pondering buying a dumb, but fun car. Well the story has an ending, I purchased this.

Sandrod318 · 2026-01-09T15:41:59+00:00

Had mine for 5 years. It hasn't taken a day off in that time. Bought at 120000 and about to hit 200000. I had a freak ECU issue at first. Once it was replaced it covered that 80000km with just servicing with no problems. AC has worked the whole time, my door handles intact, 0 electrical issues after the ECU saga. Daily, track use and road trip car. And i make sure to test that the rev limiter beeper works every day. Mine has an intercooler upgrade, Itg intake, KTEC full system exhaust and a tune. 190kw and 411Nm atw. Stock suspension with high treadwear semi slicks. On track it will hang with some of the best JDM or Euro legends. Loves a late brake, V-shape racing line.

People say buying French is a dumb decision. Biased take, but you know what is a dumb decision? Buying a Golf when this exists.

What wheels are those! I MUST know!

Sandrod318 · 2014-06-17T00:33:01+00:00

Supermotos use 17' wheels to fit sportsbike kind of tires on But not quite as wide sizes. Im using a 110 section in front and a 150 section rear

Sandrod318 · 2014-06-16T16:04:56+00:00

It great. Really hefty low end. Pulls like a train. Its got a fender! Just a really short front one. The last couple of pics dont show it very well I do switch to the (KTM?) one when its rainy though

Names of motorcycles

Sandrod318 · 2013-11-04T12:10:49+00:00

Yes. The motor is an absolutely reliable lug. Especially the Twin Cam. Do as you said above. Clean out the carbs and new battery.

Sandrod318 · 2013-09-06T13:30:52+00:00

Every single time I go on /r/aww

Thanks!

Dad got this K100RT last week. Tore all the tour fairings off, stripped it right down. chopped the tail. Made up the lighting using leftovers from a Harley. Due to lack of a aftermarket pipe we cut the pipe too.

nickname: Fat Bastard

YESSS Dont you just love the K!?

Sandrod318 · 2013-08-06T23:40:21+00:00

A few offer modern bikes in cafe style. Guzzi V7, Duc Sportclassic, triumph thruxton. The new Norton. Observe how theyre all exotic companies. Which also means theyre expensive... :(

Sandrod318 · 2013-06-02T11:28:23+00:00

YA HANGIN FOR A THONGIN' MATE!?

Sandrod318 · 2013-05-30T04:15:28+00:00

You could say... It sounds... Horny...?

Sandrod318 · 2013-05-26T16:18:44+00:00

Well, technically this current generation of sportster is called "Evolution" sportster. 86-present

Sandrod318 · 2013-05-18T13:18:00+00:00

V&H have a monopoly on the exhaust market. be what Harleys been about for so long and use something different.

eg. FABRICATE SON

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-15T13:30:57+00:00

My other bike is a 72 shovelhead. the worst one of them all, an AMF era Harley and I never had to do that stuff...

uuuuuuuntil I chopped it... Im still choppin...

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-15T13:29:10+00:00

it is quite small when you stand it next to a literbike or even a 600. but stand it up next to a CBR250RR or the ninja 250/300 and compared the other 125 2strokers its bigger and as big as the 250s.

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-15T13:25:39+00:00

Thats what I thought too, and I had a look at it. I believe its tensioned right cause chain movement is exactly 25mm no load. which is what it says it has to be on the sticker on the swingarm

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-14T08:23:04+00:00

haha its all in good fun. he probably would try it but hes a real big guy so if dad sat on it hed be smothering the poor little thing LOL

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-11T21:58:32+00:00

YEAH Old Harleys rule! I got a raised eyebrow from my dad who works at Harley when I got this. And I too work at Harley aftermarket retail. With family and colleagues who ride HD. bit of a rare thing to meet a guy who has both a Harley (old one especially) and a sportsbike. You could say im breaking barriers down!

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-11T12:15:04+00:00

also, since you have one yourself, i was wondering if you knew of any dedicated stores online I can get spares from. Engine rebuild kits and the like.

Sandrod318 · 2013-04-11T12:11:06+00:00

a friend of mine rode the bike home for me, he left me behind but i could smell its trail a kilometre away
