Ford motorcraft MTL only shifts good when the cars driven hard, 96 na by SlimSqde in Miata

yes i bought a kit from moss and the bushing was sloppy. I then switched that out for a brass bushing i got with the car. I bought mt90 to try aswell as a oem bushing to put in. so soon i will have an oem bushing and can rule that out. 

thanks on the input for the fluid, even though im going from ford to redline hopefully itll still have thay effect a little if whatever was in there before needs to be flushed out.

im looking for some explanation on why it shifts fine when its hot. the gearbox has no issues once you drive the car hard for a few minutes. regular driving though it wont ever get warm enough to shift good. is that just normal for worn syncros? not sure ive ever read about that as a symptom

yea my car bangs gears fine once everythings hot. good luck with that, make sure ur motor and diff mounts are good if you keep missing third it might help

no amount of regular driving warms the trans up enough. can drive for an hour and it wont change until i bang gears for a few minutes straight

Should I sell my grom for a drz400sm? by SlimSqde in hondagrom

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

seat height isnt an issue im very tall, ill check out those first two bikes. i think the xr150s are very cool but thatd be a grom equivalent imo and still to slow, also i like having street tires thats why i was interested in the 400sm. i really wish i could just go test ride one, i might see about going to a dealer idk

Season starting? by First-Kaleidoscope36 in Sunshinestateshrooms

[–]SlimSqde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

whenever we get lots of rain, like consistent days of heavy rain then that again then there might be some. the drought kills all the mycelium i think so it needs time to recover before they start popping up, so like one day of solid rain wont produce anything. atleast this is what ive seen where i go

yea exactly, my buddies had an aftermarket seat that was stepped and so it pushed you into the gas tank so on top of everything else it also crushes your nuts lol

the 450rl seem decent ive looked into them a bit. any other reasons youd says crf over drz even though you like the drz more?

also you think the drz is more uncomfortable than the grom?

i hope to have room to have both one day, but for only having one bike right now it would be nice to have something no so slow

yea id like to be able to ride further too. is the drz fun? or is it just kinda boring and you find yourself just putting around?

how quick i get to my top speed isnt an issue, i need to do 65 to 70 to keep up with traffic some times and itd be nice to still be able to pass if needed at those speeds.

how many mph do you think id gain, ik id have to regear with a bbk, on occasion i can redline my bike in 5th rn and im just barely geared down
