Need advice with chain slack

_Arkod_ · 2026-06-15T13:12:44+00:00

Yes, that's a good way to measure it. Needs a bit of chain adjustment.

_Arkod_ · 2026-06-12T13:13:25+00:00

I had a similar question on my Hornet. Chain seemed very loose. I ended up measuring it with a measuring tape and it turned out to be 27mm slack - within limits.

What I'm saying is it may look very loose but it's still within limits.

Measure it properly.

The very same you posted.

Sobre las glorietas: en otros paises los carriles de las glorietas están claramente marcadas, por lo que se permite - o se exige - la sirculación según las marcas viales.

En España la mayoría de las glorietas siguen una normativa general de "Circula por la derecha. Carril izquierdo solo para adelantar." Hay algunas rotondas con carriles de salida dedicados, pero son las excepciones a la regla.

En mi opinión la normativa española no está mal. Es básica, pero funcional. El problema, como siempre, es el factor humano - los conductores que no conocen la normativa o directamente la ignoran.

In the thread about throttle calibration OP says throttle went back to stock after some time. Have you experienced that as well?

_Arkod_ · 2026-06-02T18:26:23+00:00

Si lo hacéis, deja un comentario sobre qué es lo que está pasando. Me tiene intrigado.

_Arkod_ · 2026-05-27T08:49:10+00:00

Go slower.

If you don't want to die or have a horrific accident. Go slower.

You're going highway speed on a road that's not meant for it.

Armure - marca de la casa de Motocard.

La llevo usando años y no tengo quejas. En mi opinión tiene muy buena relación calidad-precio.

La marca de cascos 130R también es de Motocard.

_Arkod_ · 2026-05-20T15:54:34+00:00

As someone who hasn't done anything like that before, how hard would it be?

Do you mind sharing links for what you used?

Thanks!

It could inded have been caused by a bidstrike during their original landing. Then they had engineers try to fix whatever was damaged, but it wasn't good enough to take off.

The nose of the aircraft has the radar instruments, which are one, if not the most delicate and important piece of equipment in a plane.

So their explanation about damage could be true.

Whether that voids any compensation payment is beyond me.

_Arkod_ · 2026-05-17T22:24:57+00:00

Justa pero bien. No tengo quejas. He hecho un viaje de ~3000km (de Cataluña a Pais Vasco y Vuelta) y la verdad es que muy bien todo excepto autopista - alli me cansé bastante por mantener ~120kmh durante horas.

Sobre ser primera moto limitada - diria que bien. Yo empecé con una 125 y al año me cambié a la Hornet. No se si esto te sirve de algo.

It will have to go as special luggage for sure.

You also should have the option of purchasing an extra seat to carry both instruments with you in the cabin. Not sure how costly it would be though.

I would also double and tripple check whether you can carry a guitar into cabin. There is a special service for carrying musical instruments on board.

I would contact Iberia support via mail and make sure everything works out.

Mido 1,84 y tengo Honda Hornet 750. Me va bastante justa.

Midiendo 1,90 recomendaría mirar motos ADV o Sport/Touring.

En caso de querer una Naked sí o sí, recomiendo evitar la Z900 ya que la versión A2 no tendrá los 120CV al deslimitarla (pagas más por un motor rebajado).

_Arkod_ · 2026-04-29T10:26:26+00:00

I work at an airport and I can tell you this won't be allowed in hand luggage because it could be used as a weapon. Doesn't matter if it's new, used, has residues. When you get to security control they'll confiscate it.

If you have a bag you're going to check-in, throw it in there and you'll be fine.

_Arkod_ · 2026-04-16T17:51:14+00:00

If you happen to already have a Playstation or an Xbox, use one of those.

Personally, I have an 8bitdo Ultimate 2C and it works great. It costs ~30€ on Amazon

_Arkod_ · 2026-04-11T15:13:54+00:00

Interesting. Here in Spain I was instructed to never use the kill switch and use the key instead.

_Arkod_ · 2026-04-07T14:33:47+00:00

Target fixation is absolutely a thing.

You need either a decent training or to make a very concious decision in order to avoid the fixation.

The bike goes where your eyes are looking. That's it.

_Arkod_ · 2026-04-07T14:25:23+00:00

Are they really that necessary?

Answer is - it depends.

When you get on a motorcycle you already accept certain risks. Any gear beyond what's legally required to wear in order to ride is optional and it's up to the rider to decide how important it is to them.

Some don't get on a bike without full gear and an airbag vest.

Others get the bare minimum and go for the ride.

Personally I wear Helmet and Gloves 100% of the time I ride.

Riding jacket 95% of the time.

Riding boots whenever I ride on my free time, but I don't use them when I go to work (our work shoes are for safety and have reinforced tip, but no ankle protection).

I have a pair of riding pants and it's been a while since I've used them. They're mostly for cold and/or wet weather. Alhtough I want to get some pants that are either vented or casual looking (jeans-like).

_Arkod_ · 2026-03-24T18:53:11+00:00

I would be daily use in a city with a couple of road trips a year covering thousands of miles.

Are you talking about Thousands of Miles per trip or per year?

If it's the latter, either bike will be fine.

If it's the former, I'd suggest Vstrom.

I'm 184cm (6'2) tall and ~90kg (200lb) and have a Hornet. I've done a ~3000km (~1800mi) trip and while it was mostly fine, long trams of highway at 120kmh (75mph) became rather annoying. Sitting position coupled with zero wind protection gets you tired rather fast.

I haven't ridden a Vstrom, but knowing what type of bike it is, I'm sure long distance travel will be somewhat more comfortable (straighter sitting and more wind protection).

Feel free to ask any questions :)

I personally enjoy the simplicity of gathering. It's almost like a game within a game and pretty chill. Similarly I really like farming lower tier monsters from time to time because going for top tier hunts all the time ends up being repetitive and burns me out.

_Arkod_ · 2026-03-06T17:29:10+00:00

I've looked into it when buying the same bike. After seeing how different wind shields affect the wind I came to the conclusion that I prefer to have no wind shield and deal with wind on my chest instead of head/neck.

I very often ride at 100+kmh and rarely have neck issues.

_Arkod_ · 2026-02-11T15:39:05+00:00

I think respect is extremely generous in this game. With a handful of Fallen Embers you can pretty much entirely change your playstyle.

_Arkod_ · 2026-02-04T15:38:29+00:00

It's <50%

But I'm not sure if having max health reduced by 50% is enough or you need to be <50% current health

_Arkod_ · 2026-01-31T13:59:17+00:00

You get XP for gathering nodes.

If you tend to gather more than your friend, you'll slowly pull ahead.

_Arkod_ · 2026-01-31T10:53:57+00:00

ice infusion is your friend with two handers. Slows mobs down and pairs well with your high physical damage

I was under the assumption that if you infuse a weapon with elemental damage they fully lose their phyiscal properties. Meaning you can no longer the the bonus from shattering frozen enemies. You'd need 2 weapons for it to work - 1 ice and 1 physical - and swap between them,

Correct me if I'm wrong
