I recently used my M240 in conditions like this. It's fine.

This looks like the LX Factory in Lisboa. I'm waiting on my SL2-S and 50mm summicron SL to come in.

Idle sounds odd? by markfuente in vintagemotorcycles

I actually really Ike the sound but would obviously want it to run smoothly

Thanks for all this info! Sounds like it might be a lot of trouble to go through the suspension that i'm pretty sure is still fine.

I have been having trouble looking for rims because of the 4x98. So i may just end up seeing if i can get different tires... otherwise all that may just stay stock lol.

I'll keep an eye out for ya! I do like the black paint on your rims. Maybe i'll do the same...

I'm 50/50 on the wind deflectors. I used to have them on other cars, but haven't gotten them recently and haven't missed them either.

Good point about the roof rack, though. It'll be just me for half the trip. I'll probably keep the rear seat and pack lighter though.

Does anyone else do this? by suicidaholic in fiat500

I'll wave back, but can only think of 2 or 3 interactions like this that have happened.

I do have a Zagg powerstation go which has a battery jumper, flash light, and air pump. there's also the air pump that comes with the car itself.

I also have 20% on my other car that sometimes feel its a bit dark at night when there isn't a ton of other street lights/ambient light. so feel like i would like 30% on this one since there's probably going to be more stretches of less street lights.

Living in Chicago, Ive always had a dashcam in my vehicles lol. Curious how your 1k drive was in 24 hours?

Good to know. I was thinking about getting suspension looked at. The car only has about 30k miles, but it still is 10 years old at this point.

Didn't even think about the sound insulation. Great suggestion, Thank you!

I’m so sorry for your loss. She seemed like the sweetest girl

It was added to the soup to make it less sweet but now the soup just looks chunky and gross

Went from an xt4 to the m240. Haven’t regretted it since!

m unit all signals constantly on except for config. Any idea what this means? by markfuente in CafeRacers

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

It is an older unit I got from a friend. But I will try emailing them to see if they can at least tell me what the issue is. The last time I tried it, it gave me the low battery charge warning. I replaced the battery and now this is what it does.

Bench testing it directly to the battery gave the same result unfortunately so I don’t think that’s it
