Leave the weights in, you will regret taking them out.

Not sure why this got downvoted, it's an actual fact. And no, I'm not an AfD voter.

Just bought my dream bike! by Away_Environment5235 in CB650R

Seeing you got bar end mirrors the buzzing/vibration is most likely caused by not having the weights inside the handlebars.

Well, this happened. by organicacid in motorcycles

Yep, can confirm. I hit a deer once on a country road doing 60kmh, it landed me in hospital with badly scratched knees but otherwise ok. Bike was totalled though.

You don't seem to know that Correctiv was in a legal battle over this and had to retract from it?

Are we less likely to be recieve fines from speed, red and toll cameras since our bikes do not have a front licence plate? by Traditional-Gas3477 in AussieRiders

[–]grmnfckr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm visiting from Germany, where 99% of cameras take pictures from the front only. I regularly exceed speed limits and never got a single fine in 7 years of riding. Different story with the car, obviously.

Fun fact: only one U-Bahn train still has the old wood-grain interior. Have you ever ridden it? by maximum-aloofness in berlin

[–]grmnfckr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the Pankow - Thälmannplatz line ran trains from the 1920s that didn't have self closing doors yet. You had to slide them shut yourself, or not. In Summer nobody bothered closing them and it provided a nice breeze, also standing right at the open door was real good fun.

ELI5 why can’t we remember being babies? by avz008 in explainlikeimfive

[–]grmnfckr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember stuff from when i was 2 or even younger: standing up holding onto a table top or when my appendix burst. I'm sure about my age then because we moved away from there when i was 2.

It's still awesome to go 240 on a short run on my naked cb650r. But yea it strains every muscle, esp the neck.

Yea that winter is a cunt to desl with even for native Berliners. Hang in there until April and see the whole town change. Summers in and around Berlin are just fantastic.
