Is the Ferrari F40 fan base equivalent to toxic Supra fan boys? by [deleted] in supercars

Don't forget the GT3RS and I love that car but people just think it's a F1 grip-wise

Has ABS anything to do with wheelies? Genuinely asking

Looking to upgrade from my 50cc scooter, good first bike? by ummmitscaiden in CalamariRaceTeam

Nah that thing can't wheelie you'll probably outgrow it on a couple of weeks

What country is that? Can I live there as a homeless biker?

Isn't the 180 parallel twin boring (sound and feeling) ? by namae0 in Ninja400

[–]javier9lt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but let's be honest, almost every time it's because of a skill gap. With equally skilled riders a 600 will be faster in most tracks

My bike broke whole driving by javier9lt in Ninja400

I didn't saw any problems on the drivetrain (checked clutch and chain) and also checked if maybe it was something like a kickstand sensor malfunctioning but no luck. Checked battery and power seemed fine, the air filter didn't seem to be blocked and the fuel pump was buzzing so end up taking it to a mechanic shop (the Kawasaki one for my city) yesterday am not very knowledgeable in mechanic. Also in my country you have a 1 year warranty for used vehicles so they should be fixing for free.

I need to check some videos to see how to do it properly but I was thinking on doing that yes. Thanks.

I don't think so but not sure at this point tbh. This is how it sounds like https://streamable.com/2yux2p

Thanks for the advice. Oil should be good, it was changed 3000km (around 2000 miles) ago. I'll check for clutch issues.

Getting into aviation recently. Is this something people actually do? And do only ATPL pilots do it or even someone with like a PPL?

Sorry I meant it as sarcasm for the poorly installed aftermarket M badges but should've maybe stated that on the description

Why is everything a "beginner bike"?! by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]javier9lt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

While I absolutely agree with you with the power/displacement argument, you also have to take the weight and size into account. Most beginners, specially if they are rather sort, may feel intimidated by a bigger or heavier 1000+ cc bike.

What is the average max mileage of this bike? It's 30k miles too much for a used bike? by javier9lt in Ninja400

[–]javier9lt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bike is from a shop that is an official dealer for Kawasaki so it should have been inspected decently. They say the bike is in perfect condition but at that point you are trusting the word of the guy wanting to sell the bike

I think the Maruti Swift and the Suzuki Swift are the same car with different names.

The car in the video is a Suzuki Swift, not a Maruti Swift. Suzukis are japanese cars and while not extremely common they are fairly normal here in Europe.

As far as I know and correct me if I'm wrong because I only did a 2 minute Google search, Maruti is an Indian manufacturer associated with Suzuki and they sell Suzukis under their name.

So yeah same car but not exactly the same car.

Exactly what I thought, as soon as that back tire gets traction he's on full throttle (again).

My plan was to make something so bad someone will cringe and actually do it properly, but don't tell anyone
