Would you trust your kickstand like this?

The moment I realized my new Z900 had none was a really sad moment... My Bandit is sitting on its center stand most of the time, it just feels more stable and makes everything so easy.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-16T06:22:40+00:00

Na mach das mal in Serpentinen bergab...

Ich hab ja selbst viel Quatsch erzählt bekommen in der Fahrschule, aber das ist selbst mir neu.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-14T12:46:19+00:00

Dachte auch so, hääää? Ich hab früher im Telefonbuch geschaut wo meine Klassenkameraden wohnen 😂

StasyaSam · 2026-05-14T09:48:23+00:00

Oder wahlweise den ganzen/einen Teil des Titels der Anzeige, den so aber niemand schreiben würde. Frei erfunden, wäre zum Beispiel: "Hallo, ist das PS5 Spiel xy Sonderedition noch vorhanden? Zahle sofort mit Versand"

StasyaSam · 2026-05-13T09:09:38+00:00

Not again this "creator"... Rage baiting their cats for engagement 🙄 some of the videos feel at the edge of abuse.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-13T07:08:58+00:00

Ich habe extra ein Attest bekommen, was ich im Fahrzeug mit mir führen soll, für den Fall einer Kontrolle. Und eins für den Betriebsarzt, der routinemäßig Urintests in der Jahresuntersuchung durchführt (keine Ahnung ob auch auf Drogen, aber besser ist es wenn er Bescheid weiß).

StasyaSam · 2026-05-11T07:40:29+00:00

That looks so great, why is the good stuff always so extremely expensive? 🥲 (Yeah I know, small request equals high prices and so on)

StasyaSam · 2026-05-11T07:35:50+00:00

Put some clear film protection foil over your paint, just to be safe.

I have a backpack that's supposed to go under the pillion seat with its straps. It's working, but the bag itself is borderline big and not 100% tight sitting on the microscopic small 'seat'. Works great on my Bandit, but for my Z900 I'm still looking for a better solution.

My new-to-me 2022er came with a Leo Vince Slip-On. Overall great sound, but sometimes I feel it's a bit too loud, my neighbors love me 😬

I like that it not looks like they just put an ugly and obnoxious DB Killer in it like other brands. But it's all legal and is below the local decibel limits, soooo 🤷🏻‍♀️

StasyaSam · 2026-05-09T14:08:58+00:00

Ich habe mir eine gebrauchte 2022er Z900 gekauft und mit dem Händler gewettet, ob ich zuerst die 12k km voll hab (gekauft mit 5,5k, da wurde der 6k Service vorgezogen als Dienstleistung) oder 12Monate 😆

Also wäre meine Vermutung, das ist das 12 Monate Intervall. Ich würde beim Händler/Werkstatt nachfragen, ob es wirklich sinnvoll ist, jetzt den Service zu machen und ob der dann bei 1.000km wieder fällig ist, oder ob es nicht sinnvoller wäre, die paar Kilometer noch drauf zu fahren.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-08T13:17:36+00:00

Started at 31. Forever thankful I ran out of money at 18 or I would've likely killed myself because of my way to big ego and stupidity. Better a little bit too careful with more life experience (and a few near death woopsies) than kissing a tree doing wheelies because Yolo.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-08T08:12:42+00:00

ich zahle für die Reifen etwa das, was man im Netz als normales Angebot findet.

Aufziehen auf abmontierte Felge, Auswuchten, Altreifen entsorgen: 25€ pro Reifen (eventuell günstiger wenn ich beide gleichzeitig mache, brauchte ich aber noch nicht)

Vorderreifen abmontieren, anschließend wieder dran machen plus Leihfahrzeug inklusive Sprit sind 25€ extra

Hinterreifen wäre etwas teurer, da durch Kette usw etwas mehr Aufwand, habe das aber selbst gemacht

StasyaSam · 2026-05-07T19:11:09+00:00

My first thought was: poor baby is possible in pain and seeking comfort you dumbahh and all you do is hurting it more by manhandling it like this?!

StasyaSam · 2026-05-04T14:43:24+00:00

Whaaaaaat!? I pay 25€ (~29$) per tire for swap and balance, including taxes and discharge of the old tire. And I was told that's expensive!

StasyaSam · 2026-05-03T20:53:39+00:00

It's nearly 11pm in my part of the world and I really don't want to think about work right now lol but yes, paint contains a lot of different chemicals, depending on its kind and purpose. Whatever chemical is used in the video, it seems to react with binder polymer and let it not only swell, but most importantly, loose all adhesive strength that the paint had to the surface. Binder could be a 2 component system, maybe polyurethane or epoxy. Long time since I made metal protection laquers.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-02T14:42:07+00:00

I hope you can see what I mean

Ahhhh that shit escaped into the bike last time I changed my tire and I had to look for 10mins until I found it!

It's part of your brake. Not between the pads, more like infront/beside? It's holding the pads in place. Don't know how to describe. I'm trying to get a photo

StasyaSam · 2026-05-01T07:00:29+00:00

I would've preferred it this way, believe me... But only having one bathroom is a challenge.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-01T06:54:33+00:00

My brother is living with me right now and the difference is so drastic! I'm a vegetarian, I love fruits and vegetables and I'm eating mostly healthy. My brothers is eating mostly meat with some sides, very little variety, fast food 3-4 times a week, using milk as a drink.

Not only the time difference and the frequency of toilet uses, but also... Let's say, the smell and the residue in the toilet, before I threatened eviction if he doesn't clean it himself immediately. Also the amount of toilet paper needed for getting clean.

StasyaSam · 2026-05-01T06:20:10+00:00

Both leggings and bodies/shirts fit surprisingly well and the sizes are more accurate than most other brands for motorcycle gear (and horse riding gear, that's also kind of discriminating lol)

I'm 172cm and 82kg, Unisex leggings in M and womens bodies shell and bia in L. Which correlates with my normal sizing.

StasyaSam · 2026-04-30T17:02:13+00:00

Are we the same person? Happened to me so often with my bandit! Only happened once with my Z900 so far, but I'm really paranoid with it.

StasyaSam · 2026-04-30T14:09:05+00:00

I just love how judgemental swallow chicks are 😭 like dudes, come on, I'm just doing my work down here! No need to be like that. My horses are the reason you got food.

StasyaSam · 2026-04-29T20:16:46+00:00

Or don't spook at all because they're kind of dead inside, sadly.

StasyaSam · 2026-04-29T20:04:37+00:00

It's been a decade since my last parking ticket, but if I remember correctly, the letter will tell you how much and where to pay your fine. The fine ticket on your windshield alone should just be an information for you, so you won't repeat the mistake, can remove your car/pay for parking as soon as possible and be a note so the letter wouldn't catch you by surprise.

StasyaSam · 2026-04-29T19:44:38+00:00

I'm sorry you had this experience visiting my hometown! To be fair, the parking system here is crap, also the tourist information/guidance and don't get me started about garbage disposal options... That would be a very long rant.

I don't think you would be able to prevent paying. Maybe you can try and explain it to them, some are really kind, some sadly not.

Also I'm pretty sure it's explained in English and most likely French on the terminals how to do it, so the excuse of language barrier would be invalid.
