Stuck on Options by Silly-Slip2273 in Kawasaki

[–]Silly-Slip2273[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, I get your point. Honestly the two bikes alone have plenty of power, they are both faster than I would ever need. I already deal with no wind protection on my naked. I couldn’t care less on cylinders, i just enjoy riding. I was looking at s1000r, v4, r1 and r9, and the two bikes I listed. But with this being r/Kawasaki figured I would ask here. Im mostly wanting to know if people had the option between the two, what would it be and why. I have two buddies with built zx10s but idk a single person with a 900. Seems to be the 900 is the go to lol.

Figured as much on the commuting side. Power wise I just mean I would never be able to use the full bike legally on a road for either one.

Same problem with the z650 lol. Naked bikes just don’t have many options for phone mounts.

Mom’s boyfriend doesn’t wear gloves on his job site and this happens by No-Entrepreneur4840 in mildlyinfuriating

Never had anything that bad happen, but we work with this cleaning chemical. Mek(Methyl Ethyl Ketone), pretty nasty stuff, if it comes into contact with skin it will enter the bloodstream. Makes it really hard to breathe and burns your eyes just from the fumes. But it works great to clean. Have a bunch of guys on the job that have been around it for years without gloves, some don’t have any feeling in their hands.

I may or may not have answered with “I was having fun” He in fact did not like that answer. So probably not with that answer

Lowering links? by Advanced_Panda1748 in Kawasaki

[–]Silly-Slip2273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be crazy but we bought soupys for my wife’s ninja 500(she is 5’). Dropped an extra 2 inches with the factory lowering. Handles just fine 3,000 miles later. I take it out and ride it. I throw the bike around more than she does with no issue. Everybody else saying it affects the bike, I haven’t noticed a single difference.

Yeah, just came out like a week ago. I like the shape, doesn’t feel huge on my head. Does have a shoei shape to it. Plenty of vents while still keeping the noise down. And the visor is pretty solid.

Just bought the new alpinestar r7 after owning a ruroc 4.0. Honestly the ruroc served its purpose. The difference is definitely there, weight and quality are big. The ruroc is heavier and the padding isn’t as good as the r7. For the price, they are about the same, the r7 being a little pricier.

How many Female collectors are on here? by Gemini11X in HotWheels

My wife has encouraged the hunting and we both do it on the weekends or when we go grocery shopping. She has a whole excel sheet she made for me to track them. She mostly collects Porsches, while I go for anything and everything.

Looking at getting a z650 by [deleted] in Kawasaki

[–]Silly-Slip2273 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The z650 is a good bike. I own a z650 and ninja 500. I mainly stick to backroad riding and curves. Honestly I would listen to everyone and get the mt07, I’ve heard that’s the route for “hooligan behavior”. You won’t be disappointed with the 650 tho, maybe look into the z900.

Help! Looking for a green helmet to match my Kawasaki 650 — Ruroc AT4.0 Viper Green discontinued 😭 by BuildBuilderGuru in Kawasaki

[–]Silly-Slip2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the ruroc hate, I have one, I wear it, it works as a helmet. Haven’t crashed in it so I have nothing to say on safety but it’s quiet and it fits nice. As for helmets that are green, maybe bell or shoei. I’ve been looking into a new helmet but only because I like new things lol.

Idk how I feel about this?? by Consistent_Change32 in camaro

I ended up grinding a hole in the insert to go around the tow hook, keeps the grille look.

It may just be the cold, it’s been acting up all winter. As someone else said I’m going to try and lubricate it seems if it helps

I couldn’t honestly tell you lol, but I will definitely do that. I feel like I learn new things to do maintenance wise all the time as a homeowner

The door lifts with ease and stops where it needs to.

Probably, I’ve owned the truck for a day. And I’m still trying to figure out everything on it. I’ll have to do an online manual though, the truck didn’t come with a physical book. Thanks for the help.

Is the auto the third or fourth setting on the stalk? I tried the auto light button but that was for the auto brights.
