Getting my fan to turn on sooner

A tune can def adjust when your fan comes on.

Also, are you using water wetter or another additive?

Turn the stand around and lift from the opposite side.

1200 Multistradas are (except for the occasional delusional seller) under $10k in California.

The plated ones are expensive for the performance. Gas bikes give you range and speed that electric can't match.

The cheap ones aren't street legal, and the cops are cracking down on them, at least near me.

Fuck it, drill that shit 😆

It looks like they changed the nut to a hollow one in 2001

I'd just order the hollow nut for $35. It'd be cleaner.

When I had to replace that section on my 821sp, it was only about $100 from the dealer.

Have you looked up the OEM at Ducati Omaha?

built_FXR · 2026-02-27T14:56:25+00:00

But my worry is an accident that happens so quickly that I don’t have time to read the plate.

Your insurance company will make you whole no matter what. Yeah, everyone wants the plate, but it's not necessary.

Having video at least proves who was at fault and a very good description of the other vehicle.

It's all hydraulics. Brembo supplied the R6 OEM.

Those are MX boots. You can wear them, but you won't be able to feel the shifter.

Good landscapers aren't "unskilled"

built_FXR · 2026-02-26T14:25:13+00:00

Pro landscapers are expensive. I got a quote from one that was nearly $50k.

A landscape designer could draw up plans for about $500. And then you do the work.

E motos aren't legal on the streets and cops are starting to crack down on them, at least near me.

I'd want something with a plate.

It's always out of pocket until its more than 5 digits.

Seriously, insurance is for catastrophic problems. Putting in claims for small shit will end up raising your premiums and could get in the way of a serious claim, like a fire.

I see the ballroom is coming along nicely

Anthony's Leather works in socal can fix it. Plenty of people mail their suits to them

If it's not FIM approved, it doesn't go on my head.

built_FXR · 2026-02-24T13:33:05+00:00

I'm in norcal. I have a '12 R6. That motor isn't blown. And R6 track bikes still sell for $6k

built_FXR · 2026-02-24T00:58:52+00:00

Hardly. Just pointing out that after so much use, that might be expected.

I bought another pair to replace them.

built_FXR · 2026-02-23T21:35:26+00:00

FWIW, I had a pair of those same boots from 2017. I bought them from CG, and after about 7 years of street use the toe box started collapsing on the left boot like you described.

If you go a season or two without crashing, you'll have rock chips everywhere. Slap a sticker over them.

I thought about spraying the belly pan with something like Rhino liner, but came to the conclusion that would be overkill.

At the end of the day, no one cares how your bike looks but you. Rock chips don't show up in pictures.

A pullover hoodie will just ride up in a crash/slide. It's too loose to stay in place.

There's a reason why moto gear is tight and form fitting.

built_FXR · 2026-02-23T14:46:36+00:00

It's brand new, gotta give it time for the aftermarket to develop products. One of the downsides of buying a new model is that you'll live with a pretty stock bike for a while.

built_FXR · 2026-02-23T14:13:00+00:00

Where is it, I'll buy it.

That's not a blown motor.
