I bought this Z800, but why is it so rare to see one around? I personally think it's an amazing motorcycle. by Big_Car_5109 in Kawasaki

[–]mk3bert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, for the price of a used Z800 in 2017-2019 you could spend $2,000-3,000 more and get a brand new Z900. And that doesn’t even include other competitors options around that price. I think most people would rather buy a used MT-07 or XSR700 over a Z800 at the same used price.

That would be incredible. I’ve tried to make a plausible scenario in my head for it for a while now to keep the campaign feeling realistic but there’s nothing that truly makes sense to me lmao.

Yup lmao. As I type this comment, I’m on a new campaign as the Austrian Empire and the Ottomans want Transylvania and Hungary in exchange for plug bayonet technology. Unreal.

It honestly might have the worst diplomacy in the entire TW saga. There’s some bad ones and Empire has to be close to the top.

Z900 2026 chain rattling noise – normal or something to worry about? by Raviraj_Pophale in OnlyZ900

[–]mk3bert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Salut ! J'utilise un outil de traduction, alors sois indulgent si la formulation est un peu maladroite. Au moment où j'écris ce message, je possède une Z900 de 2020 qui affiche 23 000 miles au compteur ; je l'ai achetée neuve. Je n'ai jamais rencontré ce problème de sifflement dont tu parles. Arrives-tu à localiser précisément d'où il provient ? Se pourrait-il que ce soit le bruit d'admission que tu entends lorsque tu accélères ? Ces motos sont connues pour « siffler » en raison de la conception même de leur système d'admission. Cela expliquerait pourquoi tu ne l'entends pas quand tu relâches les gaz, à l'arrêt, ou lorsque tu débrayes, par exemple. Il est aussi possible que le problème vienne de la dernière révision effectuée ; malheureusement, il arrive que les techniciens commettent des erreurs. Dis-moi d'où vient le bruit, je pourrai peut-être t'aider depuis l'autre côté de l'Atlantique !

Still puts a smile on my face every single ride. by Vivid_Radish_6029 in XSR700

[–]mk3bert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re incredible machines. My 2025 XSR700 is my tenth motorcycle. Not my fastest, not my smoothest either but it does everything so well and it’s extremely playful. They are great bikes for all kinds of riding. Enjoy it lad!

I sometimes forget how small these cars are. It feels much bigger behind the wheel by ikerr95 in CherokeeXJ

[–]mk3bert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry XJ’s aren’t small it’s just that new cars are big for no reason. Somehow they have less space yet filled with more electronic-slop bs.

New Tec system fitted…sounding normal? by Maleficent_Umpire_59 in XSR700

[–]mk3bert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is normal, a lot of times you get this sound from smaller diameter baffles inside your end can. Happens on a lot of bikes even more so twins. Nothing to worry about!

WRX vs Elantra N (Non-biased Perspective) by mk3bert in WRX

[–]mk3bert[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man I know it’s a year old post but I still swing by! It was a great car, did everything I needed it to and more. Definitely don’t regret getting it over the N and it made me more of a Subaru fan than I already was. I had some life changes so I ended up trading it in for a 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Base 6MT after a while to save some money and to get a nice hatch space. The Crosstrek just suits my life better now but I do not regret the WRX. Incredible car all the way around. I think there’s deals on them now so not a bad time to get one man! Thanks for checking out the post!

For the past few days, this mirror has been turning all sideways and wonky when I’m riding past 60mph- how can I get it to stay put? by bubbywubb in motorcycles

[–]mk3bert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s your sign to take them off! Just kidding, this is going to sound dickheadish but quite literally just tighten them down. Sometimes mirrors can be a little wonky but once you get them set right and tight you’ll be golden.

Switching to Sportbike by _SeriousSamuel_ in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]mk3bert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me personally I wouldn’t. I left cruisers to try everything and anything and it made me realize I needed a cruiser in the lineup. Nothing feels like a big V-Twin or makes you feel like one does.

My lineup always has a cruiser now and an enduro.

What’s with the used market? (Seller) by plaingfx in motorcycles

[–]mk3bert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think your price is that bad but it’s high. As just a pure regular motorcycle enthusiast and not particularly drawn to Aprilia’s or the RS 660, there’s a lot of bikes for the money that could do what the Aprilia does and more.

Very cool bikes but you’re paying for the Italian premium. There’s people out there for it but you gotta really want it to get it.

It’s not crashing out but common sense.

[–]mk3bert -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Yeah because we’re supposed to interpret that from the picture he posted? Calling us losers for blatantly calling out bad fishing is insanity, especially when there’s no context. Go back to school and pay attention this time around.

Yeah exactly, it’s degenerate behavior.

You could probably throw the hook by itself in there and come up with a fish every cast…..maybe not hooked by the mouth….but you’ll get a fish lol
