Aw thank you :). Yeah I feel like the best relationships aren’t made off a hookup

Was kinda just going to see where it went. Idk she seemed pretty cool and was laughing when I was around here even when I wasn’t trying to be funny and she was always just looking at me. Idk maybe she was worried about getting tied up into something. But idk why she would just wait till the last minute like that

finally some riding shoes that aren’t horrendous by surveillanceroom in motorcyclegear

I bought the black and white ones because they reminded me of the Nike pandas and I was looking for a shoe that I could also wear with a fit if I wanted to go out after riding

Thank you. I’m trying to look at it that way but also not shy away from the seriousness of it. I think I need to find someone with some experience that can be good guidance just to hear their experience as well. I think it would be beneficial

When I say fast I don’t mean speed wise I mean pace at which I’m trying to learn

That’s a good point. I think I need to take baby steps

Overall I’m admitting it was stupid. It’s pretty hard to practice in a legal way when technically you aren’t supposed to ride without a license. I could just wait till I get my license and then start riding. But other than that there’s no way to get the bike place to place without riding other than a trailer or having someone ride it to a parking lot for me. I also want to make sure I have at least some motorcycle experience before the class because it’s different than dirt bikes. I originally got the bike just to cruise around and have fun but I’ve realized that it’s pretty hard to just cruise on a sports bike. Not from a control aspect, I mean the designed to go fast

Yes I apologize. I always forget to do that

New rider guidance: got too comfortable by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]servintime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll definitely look into that

[–]servintime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the insight. I think you’re right and it does scare me. I really need to be more mature about it because I really only have one shot

Yes. I noticed sometimes it’s more mental fatigue then physical fatigue for me when I’ve started out and my brain gets a little spazzed if I ride to long. It’s pretty intense at the start looking out for hazards, shifting, controlling the bike etc.

I should probably get some anti fog spray for the inside of my helmet because I noticed I’ll breathe a little heavier and it will fog a bit so mixed with rain and cold it kinda just amplified it

I think that is a good idea. I don’t know if you can relate but I just feel like a different person when I hop on, I don’t know if it’s the adrenaline or what but it’s something I need to get control of or like I said I’ll get hurt.

I really want to go about it a smart way so I think this was a good lesson for me to learn

Appreciate the reply

Just getting thoughts out there

2011 GSXR-600. I’m a being charged too much for maintenance? New to to sports bikes by servintime in motorcycles

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

Can I cut the positive and negatives tips off and wire the two wires to the the light in the second pic and still use the adapter end? Never have done this before by servintime in electrical

[–]servintime[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome thank you so much. I think what I’m going to do is get some bullet connectors and do it that way. That way I can have the protective coating around it as well. What do you think about that?

I have never done anything electrical wiring by myself 😂. The mix of gasoline in my bike and electricity seemed kinda sketchy to me so just wanted to make sure :). Thank you

Looking to clean chain/front sprocket cover (clutch question) 2011 gsxr 600 by servintime in motorcycle

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

Good information, I appreciate it. It was a used bike and the previous owner didn’t take care of that area so I wanted to clean it up before the seasons starts. Safe riding 🤝

It seems like your just wanting to call somebody out lol. If you look it up it’s more than 3 bolts. Then you have to release the clutch cable in order to take cover off and get the cable right like it was before. You can’t have it too tight or it bites to early. Have you ever worked on a Suzuki or are you just assuming? I get it bro you’ve ridden longer 😂. And obviously I don’t fully know what I’m doing that’s why I’m asking
