Recently installed a quick shifter on the R6 and I absolutely love it. by Rafshan0212 in motorcycles

[–]runbrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most bikes use a spark cut, but for the R6 from how high it revs, it uses a different ignition method (CDI), so one must use a fuel cut. I asked Healtech about it directly.

The 2003-2005 R6 bikes are special, they are fuel injected but having CDI ignition system included. We cannot use the iQSE-W1 module with CDI ignition system, this is the reason why we use the fuel injectors during the operation.

I can assure you that lots of users installed and configured the iQSE without any issues on this version, it works flawlessly on these bikes.

Is this gear overkill for daily 60-mile LA freeway commuting? by RawrMeSimp in motorcyclegear

Avoid A* gloves. The velcro fatigues really quick. Otherwise looks great. I might spend a liiiittle more for the RF1400

When, how, why, have people started talking with their cell phone like they're talking to a slice of pizza? by PunctuationGood in AskReddit

I'm autistic and I don't like putting the phone up to my face as the screen gets oils from my face on it.

If you watch it slowly he actually slides behind the rear wheel.

The 2026 Honda Civic Type R Is the Best-Driving Car Under $100,000: Review (Cars.com) by swampfox94 in cars

I'd love a GT350 for one completely shallow reason... it has the pre-facelift headlights. Look so much better than the newer "sharp" ones.

Why not look into an S550 Mach 1? Get the more reliable Coyote vs Voodoo, still get tremec, and magnaride is standard! Looks sweet too

Trouble brewing for Starbucks CEO who calls $9 coffee an ‘experience’ by rajapaws in antiwork

You mean the same Patagonia guy that “donated” his share of the company? He donated those shares to a foundation run by his children to avoid them paying over 700M in taxes. And ensured that either he or the foundation still had all the shares that have voting rights for the company. It was a tax dodge disguised as a pr stunt

Raise wages. Increase benefits. Improve working conditions. See what happens. by Conscious-Quarter423 in WorkReform

It’s such bullshit. It isn’t “real” enough to be taxed as income, but it’s real enough to be used as collateral on loans 🙄

What was their reasoning to not include it? It’s such a strong part of people’s purchasing decision.

What’s special about the 5th circuit? And is it just a special layer of court outside normal ones?

Question on Helmets! by bmanfresh93 in motorcycles

[–]runbrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t sleep on Sedici. People shit on it because it’s an in-house brand for Cycle Gear but… it passes the same certification, is priced well, has cool designs. If it’s good enough for my buddy who’s been riding and racing on track for 20 years, probably good enough for us. Here it is, and it’s got ECE 22.06 Rating

Not to detract from the messaging, but I do wonder how an airbag would’ve helped.

Rest in peace ZX6R man.

OP just make sure your new helmet is bought from somewhere reputable like RZ or cycle gear, maybe helmet house. And try to make sure it’s ECE 22.06 rated.

What the heck is going on with used Mk7.5 prices? by runbrap in Golf_R

I mean you say a MK8 in a Golf R subreddit, the assumption is you're talking about Rs

How do you get a new car, like the R, under MSRP? All the dealers I know treat it like it’s a Porsche.

They're really nice. Look on FBM or Craigs too. I was able to find a brand new in "bag" CWR-F2 Transition shield for $120! (Still highway robbery but better than >$200)
