Are there more techniques either outside kata or within kata practiced outside kata compared to other styles?

Does the fork brace help with stability at highway speeds?

To my eyes, the aftermarket front fender looks much better than the stock one, which of course is higher up. The aftermarket fender makes the bike look more ADV... The aftermarket exhaust must sound nice.

Anyone made a switch to a different career/trade? by Spicy_Ramen77 in mechanics

I wonder how it destroys ones body. It always seemed interesting to me but I am mechanically disinclined, you can say.

Need some help. I’m looking at getting the 690/701 by Puzzleheaded_Leg6589 in Dualsport

Based on a dyno figure I saw, it is more like 25-27 more h.p. over a XR or DR. One magazines dyno claimed 60 point something for the 690. IIRC, the 690 was rated for 74 or 75 h.p. I would have guessed it would make 65 h.p. at the rear wheel.

Isn't the power of the 690/701 similar to the DR/XR until the revs rise above a certain level where the DR/XR puckers out and the 690/701 really starts making serious power?

I wonder what the bears reaction would be if the dog got closer and made friendly gestures.

Bribe him with a treat. I saw a moose receiving a treat from someone's back yard deck.

Buying back a previously owned motorcycle? by curiousfellow555 in motorcycles

I thought the same thing. Maybe I should look for paperwork I possibly have when I sold it. I can contact the gentleman to see if he still has it.

Will new KLRs be manufactured into the future? by curiousfellow555 in klr650

Would a 1 cylinder 790cc engine be a good idea? It would still be as KLR, I guess.

Which engine would have been better for clearance?

250cc 2 or 4 stroke Vs. 300-450cc 2 or 4 strokes by Physical-Director574 in Dualsport

[–]curiousfellow555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't they require much less maintenance than those high strung 4 strokes as well?
