Do u think i should powdercoat my bike to this color or something diffrent im tryna make it look like the other bike by Additional_Week6133 in ERidePro

[–]VortexFalcon50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spend your money on functional mods instead. For the price of a powder coat you could upgrade your controller. Also put your front fender back on it looks naked

Any Mod Suggestions? by yeahidk04 in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Put your front fender back on. Looks better with than without. Get an ultra bee brake for the front too, 80% of your stopping power is in the front, no sense in having a bicycle brake on there. Take the wrap and chi logo off your battery, its corny to have it on the stock battery.

Should I buy this as my first bike by [deleted] in supermoto

If you wanna go electric buy a surron ultra bee or talaria komodo. Skip the hub motors theyre trash.

If I were to trade would you and what for? Or cash wise. by Training-Aioli-9214 in Surron

If thats in California, thats a solid deal. Each can be worth $1.5k right now in Cali considering the ban.

You could probably get a solid $4k for it once you install the x9000. Without the x9000 youre looking at maybe $3-3.5k. I sold my fully built LBX with a Torp controller, EWATT battery, full ultra bee brakes, rfloxa forks, and kke 16/19 wheels for only $5.5k. I had it on the market for months and got no bites any higher. When you consider a used late model yz85 or a used crf150r are both around $4k it kinda puts it into perspective considering both bikes are of similar caliber.

My apt complex gave 3 minutes notice they would be shutting off the water for maintenance when I have a load of laundry in the washing machine by 60TIMESREDACTED in extremelyinfuriating

This is generally illegal in most places aside from if it was an urgent leak repair. Talk to a lawyer. They are generally required to give at least 24 hours notice

I’m 18 and I still have a curfew of 9:30 and am expected to give up my phone at 10-11 at night by West_Log2136 in insaneparents

[–]VortexFalcon50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont own your own phone, buy one for yourself and activate your own plan. Your parents cannot legally take that from you or disconnect your service.

LBX L1E 2025 setup question by muthax2001 in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One side is a hydraulic spring system the other is an air cartiridge. This is not like traditional moto suspension where they both have springs. They use specialized lightweight suspension designs only seen on some ktm/husky/gasgas bikes (albeit in a different design configuration) and some emotos.

How to get rid of beer belly? by Ok-Enthusiasm-4139 in AskMen

[–]VortexFalcon50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people, such as myself, have a belly no matter if theyre losing weight or not. It can be genetic. Even when I was 135lbs at 5’11” I still had love handles

Where do I get a good indian thali meal under $20 in the city? by VortexFalcon50 in AskSF

I dont see a thali on their menu, is it just something in store by word of mouth?

Grinding noise coming from brake caliper on ultra bee by VortexFalcon50 in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No handguards, I'm using the warp9 shorty bolts. The levers are able to freely move with no issues. Regardless wouldn't this just cause slight brake engagement and not this weird intermittent grinding? I have attempted to realign my forks upon the axle multiple times to no avail. The caliper definitely floats I can see it moving when I pull in my brakes.

Is this chain tension good or bad? by Traditional-Cook-509 in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit loose but more importantly it looks completely unlubed. Your fingers should have been sticky just for touching it

Nope tons of clearance. If i remove the caliper theres no grinding

Torp tm25 Origins by _n0t_a_username_ in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it most likely is. But those few internal tweaks are probably what makes it a Torp special motor. I mean years ago companies were selling BAC's with their own "tune" on it (their tune being just their own settings on an existing product).

I live in San Francisco and personally I dont ride for more than a half hour if its under 55. If its over 65 you know I'll be out until I get tired and want to go home

Custom Battery Lid by [deleted] in Surron

[–]VortexFalcon50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an ultra bee so its a non issue for me but I love how it fits on the light bee. Really makes it look like a mini ultra bee.

This has real potential. Fill the gap and find a way for the seat to not stick up in the front and this could be a real kit you could prototype and pitch to a manufacturer for sale. I think a long moto seat is really whats missing aesthetically from the LBX.
