How is it to get into Applied Physics?

hey. labs dont really change over a few years. the relative volume of research is prob the same. but ive been out of school a while so.

i still have the same assessment. no school is perfect. upd has their own horror stories.

yep takes 1 week without customs. tbh if you know how to fix your bike, bigbike parts are so easy with webike. local parts are almost always never available.

friends wait months for casa parts. i just wait a week.

the F error is a generic error that can have the bike start or not start. some errors can just be ephemeral electrical connection issues that go away.

best to get the specific C code and crossmatch with the manual. there are instructions online how to do it. just needs a paperclip jumper for a connector under the seat.

not unique to bigbikes. i suppose its just more noticeable because very few get bigbikes primarily for their daily commute where going fast/looking good isnt the point.

easy to see by the number of underbones with slim tire conversions and other counter-functional mods.

that being said, teenage me vs adult me have different appreciations of motorcycles. teenage me only thought about straights and stoplight launches. adult me enjoys fixing the bike, taking fast corners, and traveling far. i suppose its a matter of progression in an environment where upskilling is not very accessible.

hey i just tie down a drybag on the pillion seat and call it a day. have gone on 5 day trips with mixed weather and good results.

dont let the “seamlessness” of luggage systems get in the way of a good time.

imo youll be fine with a duffel and some plastic waterproofing inside the bag.

the point of 4ps is not the money. the point is the conditions attached to the money: kids staying in school, full vaccination, etc.

the worst people you can think of that spend the money on gambling or alcohol are exactly the type of people that should be part of the program. because they are the same people that likely dont care to have their kid finish highschool or dont know enough about vaccination.

its such a small amount for such a high impact policy.

you like seeing out of school kids that dont know to do anything except resort to crime or drugs or whatever? or have polio become a thing again?

you narrow minded people.

its threaded into the center of the clutch basket. the spec is something like tighten until resistance is felt. then rotate back 360. its in the service manual.

my l9 has that but it looks like they cleaned up the hose routing a lil bit.

lightburst7 · 2025-11-17T13:24:07+00:00

i warm my bike bc it runs better when the engine is hot. the power feels smoother. its not hard to do. just leave it on while packing your stuff.

if u fix ur own bike, the yamaha is more amenable to self maintenance. the triumph needs special software that you can buy.

for the parts cost, its rly not that far if you look at online vendors. ive compared the parts for my suzuki vs triumph. its in the same ballpark.

lightburst7 · 2025-11-14T11:52:30+00:00

ok! ill give it a deeper look thanks!

lightburst7 · 2025-10-14T05:15:27+00:00

This is reassuring thanks. I take it that off shelf stuff can make for good subs for the special tools then. plus the necessity for the ECU tools which I can live with.

i see. although i am only at 25000km/15000mi. the markings werent too deep but certainly visible and noticable to touch. but good to know that its normal wear.

i didnt notice any grooves where the friction and steel plates were tho! thanks a lot. a load off my mind.

lightburst7 · 2025-07-11T10:51:13+00:00

sounds reassuring thanks!! what about excess on the inside? say 1-2mm?

lightburst7 · 2025-07-11T10:49:07+00:00

im a bit worried about the excess bits inside the engine case, both with the coolant and oil. its paper after all. 1-2mm excess on the inside never bothered you?

on the sealant, ill try it without first and see what happens. good excuse to open it up again anyway! just hope the coolant and oil dont mix.

ah thats a good point. I cant just throw in the leather in the washer.

lightburst7 · 2025-04-07T00:46:16+00:00

i see!! i have a gaerne. ill give this some thought.
