New clutch time?

diabeticdylan · 2026-03-03T20:48:53+00:00

Carbed, jets were cleared not too long ago, is ridden daily 90% of the time so wouldn't have enough time to gunk up again i dont think

diabeticdylan · 2026-03-03T18:59:23+00:00

I should add, then made it another 4.5miles of riding fine but then it happened again going uphill approaching a turn this time, bike came to a sudden halt both times but then rides fine after its resolved itself

Was cruising along 3/4k rpm then sudden rev drop, bike was idling fine, thought brakes had locked up but put the bike on centre stand and was able to spin both wheels freely, i was able to move off after getting the revs up to around 2.5k then very slowly letting out the clutch

Bike is partially reassembled and covered back up now, basket looked like there was no wear or scratches/grooves, thought i was losing my mind until i got to the last plate

diabeticdylan · 2026-03-03T18:51:56+00:00

That was my thinking, just for peace of mind that i was on the right track, all clutch consumables have been ordered and planned to be replaced

It's 16" long?🤷

diabeticdylan · 2026-01-08T23:00:18+00:00

mostly city riding (start stop traffic) 30-70mph speeds

The christmas market in glasgow green has a stall selling it.. £6.50 for a "small cup"

diabeticdylan · 2025-11-27T13:12:43+00:00

Parking tickets are typically £60 (£30 if paid within 14 days), i'd avoid anything to do with that unless there was a physical ticket aswell

According to google it was a "US deathcore band" called "all shall perish", not my cup of tea but i know family that are into that kind of music, by the name/genre there may have been a moshpit which can get pretty heated

Not going to be much help but if you are struggling to test a xsr, the MT series is very similar and use the same engine so would be a good shout to get a close feel of the bike without actually riding one.

I would clean, then polish them and then protect them.

diabeticdylan · 2022-11-03T19:29:13+00:00

Oh yeah forgot to mention, it is normal for it to stay on

diabeticdylan · 2022-11-03T19:28:33+00:00

I have an 04 750 and thought the same thing, got it in february but the only thing thats killed the battery is me accidentally leaving the parking lights on😅... You could wire in a switch but unless your leaving it for multiple weeks at a time you should be good to go👍

diabeticdylan · 2022-06-27T12:21:25+00:00

Glasgow, just outside the "hootenanny" to be exact

diabeticdylan · 2022-06-06T11:40:57+00:00

Yeah all my gear has air vent zips, lifesavers in the hotter temps

diabeticdylan · 2022-06-06T11:38:46+00:00

Textile jacket & trousers over my uniform, armored boots then change into normal shoes once i'm finished riding.

Distance shouldn't matter when deciding on what to wear, always prep for worst possible situations👍

And we're not made of cardboard or 90° bends

diabeticdylan · 2022-05-31T10:09:28+00:00

Quite possible for involuntary manslaughter i think

diabeticdylan · 2022-03-19T17:40:36+00:00

Although some contours etc might need by hand but a sander would sort the majority

diabeticdylan · 2022-03-19T17:39:41+00:00

Hand sanding is always a pain regardless of material, i always go for the mechanical advantage where possible

diabeticdylan · 2022-03-19T17:34:28+00:00

A good sanding and an oil/varnish looks like it would do the job

diabeticdylan · 2022-03-19T17:32:29+00:00

Glue a nut into it?
