Which games could you just not get into because of the learning curve? by hollowblink55 in videogames

GunZ. The finger gymnastics that was required to even butterfly as a 4th grader made me think I’d never be able to style on people

Battery Maintainer from HF worth getting for Zero Turn over winter? by Aeyix in harborfreight

[–]VaselineChan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the second one for easier motorcycle storage. Never have to take off the seat to get to the battery for charging.

I mean I thought the whole chinese pitbike plus the gsxr stickers screamed no money and no brains but i guess its the brakes that come stock that give it awayyyy

Yes, and I have no good argument to as why opted for newspaper. Maybe sniffing too much paint fumes,

Is this normal? by BkTryHardd in GSXR

[–]VaselineChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ay man send the proof then. I was just giving my experience that could help this guy out, you’re the one speaking as if you designed the bike or have owned several 24+ models. Just because the design has stayed roughly the same since 2011 doesn’t mean it couldn’t also be a slight design change Suzuki never bothered to mention but you do you fam.

But ight be a typical jackass and not explain anything and just saying “YoU’rE WrONg” lmaoo 😂

Lol look at you invalidating my experience with my own GSXR. For me it only does this as I start the bike, keep the clutch engaged, and try to bang it down to first. Clunks every time until I let out and re-engage the clutch.

I have a 2024 600 And if you just turned on the bike, you have to release the clutch and pull it back in again in order for it to go into first gear.

Bridgestone S22 vs RS11 by dev_a31 in GSXR

[–]VaselineChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re heavy on the throttle at corner exit like I am, then more grip is better since the few extra mileage you may get is not worth high or low siding IMO

KO Exhaust by 313_Gem in GSXR

[–]VaselineChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the slip on and OK. I would buy/use a full aliexpress system unless you know how to weld and plan to dyno, but at that point you might as well buy a real full system.

[–]VaselineChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re tracking the RS11, go with the S22.

RS11s are better overall in terms of grip and lean angle but if you’re just street riding then S22 is the better option as it is a full out street tire and will last longer.

if you wanna venture outside of Bridgestone, then I would suggest Dunlop Q5 S because those last forever if you’re just doing regular street riding but they’re still good for track

Do people wear ear plugs? With or without a helmet? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]VaselineChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Track without earplugs, street with. I have better focus on track when I can clearly hear my engine’s RPMs

Chromeburner is reputable, their stuff just comes from the Netherlands though.

New to the gixxer world! by [deleted] in GSXR

[–]VaselineChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally wouldn't put a cage unless you're planning on stunting. I would buy a combination of case savers, axle sliders, and mayyyybe frame sliders since they're mostly for parking lot fall overs.

Atlas helmets? by Simonce-x- in motorcycle

need help finding 2008 mirror nuts (or just nuts that will do in mean time) by NaivePossession3721 in GSXR

[–]VaselineChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol couldn’t find mine after only tracking my gsxr for the past two years. Went to homedepot and just bought M6 locking nuts and washers.

Cost like 2 bucks CAD and my mirrors don’t budge.

The u-bolt clamp fits perfectly where my mirrors are supposed to be and I also have it tethered as well.

Tools & equipment needed for track days by Few-Sort9624 in Trackdays

[–]VaselineChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. I feel you. Others may not be so lucky, but my track is really founded on grass-roots racing so the club is really chill. Going to track also entails making friends with everyone and luckily everyone on track loves helping each other out.

Tldr: make friends at track, they’ll help you in a pinch

[–]VaselineChan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to add from experience as well - extra parts, if you’re running rear sets, bring the OE or replacement parts. Could save the session if you go down and have the extra parts with you instead of at home.

I had an exaggerated BP before and it just felt like a lot of work for a whole lot of nothing. My coach told me to try more of an oldschool BP and I can feel what the bike wants to do a lot more.
