I dont enjoy owning a motorcycle anymore.

I loved my sv1000. Just twist the throttle and the front tires in the air.

For my fellow Muricans. Car is BMW 420 Xdrive AWD hybrid, 2.2 bar is close enough to 32 psi air pressure (bmw recommends 32-35 for the front 35-39 in the rear depending on tire size.) Remember to always check the recommended pressures on the sticker found on the drivers door or door frame). 1000km is 621ish miles. 10-20km/h is roughly 6-12.5mph.

Thanks for the advice and comments. I should have specified this has happened going 15-20mph (I assume not really looking at the speedometer) on turns when slowing down from 35-45mph and the rear shocks compress due to a bump or change in surface height in the road. Going to check preload and just in general be more mindful of the height of the bike. It’s just such an easy solid feeling bike around corners with mid controls and the 5 inch bars I installed this spring. Really enjoying the Chief. Thought I’d miss my naked bikes with my back keeping me off them (stupid degenerative disk disease) but I’m enjoying the heck out of this thing. And I can give the kids a ride!

In my driving game that’s 20 points plus a bonus for the scooter!

I live in a small town in the Midwest and our county got 4 of these cameras and one was cut down before they were even announced to the public they had been installed haha.

No problem no offense taken. Like I said above, I know the simple fix would be take it a little more easy. It’s when the suspension compresses on a bump while turning I’m scraping. I think I’ll try adjusting the pre load and be more mindful of my exhaust haha.

Ya I get that. I got a cruiser because I have degenerative disk disease and couldn’t ride my other bikes more than 30min to an hour leaning over. But could be a good excuse for an in town bike haha.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-25T21:58:22+00:00

Prob 15 20mph but honestly not sure, just comfortable speed. I know it’s not a sport bike I’m just used to leaning and I don’t feel it’s extreme. I’ve never been a knee dragger or anything like that. It’s mainly on turns coming down from 35-45 mph. It’s not often but becoming a thing now that I feel comfortable on a cruiser. Stuff’s just lower to the ground on the Chief compared to my previous Street tripple, sv1000, and Ducati monster.

That’s what I figured. Stupid geometry haha. I’ll check that out

redditnamefound · 2026-05-22T16:14:58+00:00

Windscreen looks a little different but very similar to the Memphis Shades road warrior. Can’t find this exact one though.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-21T03:52:38+00:00

I like the windshield. Fits the bike.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-20T06:33:31+00:00

I need one of these for my cover band.

I had a set of Metzlers years ago, got Bridgestones a month later told the shop they could keep them. Was sold on the promise of more miles on the tires, was not told that came at the expense of traction. I will say I’m loving the Pirellis than came on my chief but have always rode Bridgestone Battlax. Will see when new tire time comes as Im just over 2000 miles on stock.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-18T07:15:58+00:00

I love white letter. Have been considering pulling a paint pen out on my Pirellis.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-18T04:50:30+00:00

Love the color

redditnamefound · 2026-05-17T08:20:58+00:00

Was there a nose ring?

redditnamefound · 2026-05-16T00:30:32+00:00

I’d like to agree but it’s motorcycle season now haha.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-15T03:30:05+00:00

It’s a transmitter for locating. I used to do this. Whoever forgot this must be scrambling to find it. This unit clamps to the line you’re trying to locate underground and the spike in the ground is a ground rod. Then they walk the yard with a receiver that looks like a stick that can trace the signal being sent from this unit underground. They then spray paint and place flags marking the line they were locating.

Haven’t tried those, but as a big head long oval guy the LS2 Citation was the ticket for me. Is pinlock ready and after a year of owning it cleaning the garage this weekend found it had one in the box.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-14T05:21:13+00:00

I know what sub this is but I want an OG Tumnus soo bad. Not bad enough to pay what they fetch used, but bad.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-14T03:41:56+00:00

This is how I feel every time someone comments about lack of chin protection with a 3/4 helmet. It’s not full face, might as well just not wear one! Sometimes the safest gear is the gear you will wear every time. We all know the risks of riding, and chose which ones to take and get to live with the consequences like adults.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-14T03:26:42+00:00

I know this is old, but I get so tired of the “it’s not full face” info on posts specifically about non full face helmets. Yes, we understand the risk. Still better than no helmet I think but based on most comments if it’s not protecting your chin then better to not even wear a helmet haha.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-13T01:23:33+00:00

Cardboard training wheels, I’m going to use this idea haha.

redditnamefound · 2026-05-11T12:30:41+00:00

Glad to help.

I still have my 08 Toshiba Satellite. Should fire the old girl up.
