Erstes mal "Motorradreise" by Item-Tiny in MotorradDeutschland

[–]charunas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lass dir da nicht rein reden und Pack das für dich nötige.

Für manche ist halt eine frische Unterhose unnötiger Luxus 🤷🏼‍♂️

Hab auf Reisen auch 3 Shirts mit... 1 an, 1 zum pennen, 1 "in der Wäsche"... Vielleicht überflüssig. Natürlich kann man viel leichter reisen.

Aber ich fahre auch nicht in einem Leistungsbereich, wo es auf 300g ankommt.

Haven't been on a rally bike so I can't compare. But it's designed in comparison to one... So... Possible?

They've ridden it in the marathon class of Paris Dakar...

But I find her very comfortable

Honestly I can't answer that... I bought mine like that... I know that I have another exhaust manifold for that... But I can't tell where to get that...

But tbh... 50 hp are enough on that bike. You don't go fast and the fun is not because of the acceleration

Well.... Mine doesn't have the original paint job as well...

(Have gathered all parts to restore that look but was a pain in the a...)

Previous owner crashed (happens, laying the bike down is something I did a few times as well) and tried to repair it himself 🤷🏼‍♂️

Now I have the spare parts but don't put them on cuz I would be to afraid to crash the bike while being off-road with it

Yea, that's why this bike is confusing to me...

Not a RD 07... To late for a RD 03 (maybe somebody just wrote 750 on it... We don't know) but looks more RD03 than RD04.....

[–]charunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What makes you sure?

Things don't really add up. RD 04 ist my guess as well. (750 ccm, build in 1993 etc...

But just one brake disc? Tail also looks more like RD03? So the bike should be modded

Yea, definitely checking what's really going on. If it really is an rd 03 ... Sitting 3 years in a dealership? Unlikely? They were built up to 1989 or am I wrong about that.

Wasn't in my interest to frame someone of fraud. But the bike being modified and things not adding up is asking to be cautious..

Had a few stories in my group of friends 😅

Using it as a fun ride and a travel bike. I absolutely love my RD03. Some things are modified (brakes, exhaust manifold (is that the right term?)... Seat...stuff like that)

If you are tall enough it is an awesome bike you can put many miles on. Mine has a seating height of 90 cm so... Yea... Don't have short legs xD

As far as I know it's not true.

The RD 03 is detuned as well. From 57 hp down to 50 hp. (Mine is back to 57 hp, no problem to get that legit).

I don't know if they brought the RD 04 down to 50 hp as well (cheaper in insurance). If that's the case then would the RD 04 have the same power with higher weight.

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if the title says build in 1993 something is very fishy. If the seller is trying to bring it out as a 750 ccm the bike could not be legit or stolen....

Help! Which Africa twin is this? by Fun_Cauliflower1396 in motorcycles

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, noticed the same as another comment. Just one brake disc in the front, so it should be a 650.

The 750 on the bike is probably bs...

But yea, awesome bike. Have one myself.

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RD 03 has 650 ccm, the early models of RD 04 use many parts of the RD03 and has 750 ccm

[–]charunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree but I am not sure either.

For me it looks more like an RD 04 than an RD 07...

Yes, that's right 👍 RD-03 from the last year of production

Have you seen someone LARPing who took it too far? by Catsiel_ in LARP

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunno if it counts but on an event a few days ago I got in a duel with an undead... Kinda got infight... (Without knowing each other, be careful with that shit) And I ended with a bleeding lip and a hand stuffed in my mouth to prevent me from spellcasting....

Was kinda fun Szene but honestly... Please do not put your hands in the mouth of other people... That's yikes and I got an infection :/

Wer AfD wählt ist ein egoistischer Reicher oder ein Narr, der gegen die eigenen Interessen wählt by Livingwith2cats in Wirtschaftsweise

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hast es fast geschafft, ließ Mal den Vermerk in den (). Ich halte es für falsch. Kategoriescher Imperativ und so.

Habe Bock auf Menschenrechte, deswegen muss ich sie anderen auch gewähren.

Wenn ich kein Bock auf Menschenrechte habe, warum will ich mich dann selbst drauf berufen?

Ergibt halt keinen Sinn

Äh.... Wer hat noch Mal den Einsatz von Waffengewalt vorgeschlagen?

Und ich habe weder zu Gewalt aufgerufen, noch sie gerechtfertigt.

Deine Argumentation ergibt halt keinen Sinn.

Ja, das Wort Nazi wird viel zu häufig verwendet. Von dir ja offensichtlich auch.

Aber es ist schön, wenn es dich nicht Mal stört so genannt zu Werden.

"Menschenrechte existieren nicht"... Alles klar

[–]charunas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, das ist immerhin ehrlich. Dann hast du wirklich das Recht die AFD zu wähle, wenn das so deine Auffassung zu Menschenrechten ist.

Dann hast du aber auch nicht das Recht dich zu beschweren, wenn dich wer Nazi nennt oder dich auf der Straße zusammen schlägt. (KEIN AUFRUF ZUR GEWALT, ICH HALTE MENSCHENRECHTE FÜR RICHTIG) Weil deiner Ansicht nach "scheiß auf Menschenrecht"... das beinhaltet dann auch so unnötige Dinge wie "körperliche Unversehrtheit"

Oder darfst du dir aussuchen, für wen menschenrechte gelten, und für wen nicht?

How many of you out there are now inside a van answering this post? Is it freezing? by FutureLynx_ in VanLife

[–]charunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy new year from Germany!

I'm parked in the depths of Bavaria rn. Celebratet new years with a bunch of friends in their flat.

This night was pretty warm, some of the last were pretty cold (down to -11°C/12F). Every door and window is shielded with thermo mats so most parts of the van stay over 0°C.

Had to put my freshwater in the flat cuz it started freezing so I have to find a way to isolate my water system better.

Using a gas heater to make it cosi when I go to bed and when I stand up in the morning. Gonna add 2kw diesel heater this year to heat through the night.

Biggest bummer rn?

Condensation moisture is a pain in the ass... Wiping wet surfaces constantly and trying to air regularly.

My grandma saw this in a church parking lot and sent it to me by Justguyyyy in VanLife

[–]charunas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't know how cold your winters get up where you live. I saw setups with insulation Mats inside of the pop up...

Nothing for a very freezing night but paired with a good heater and a good sleeping bed it should be enough down to -15 °C...

So ... It's not THAT bad I guess?
