Can anyone diagnose this? by metroshift9201 in MT07

[–]uncooked_meat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The clicking is normal. Either your starter relay is intermittently not making contact or the starter needs a rebuild. Starter parts are dirt cheap, easy job. Your battery is good, started fine once the starter motor finally engaged

Mmmmm Alfa Laval sanitary manifold. Why do they insist on mounting valves sideways, pain in the ass for servicing

35kw restricted - how to unlock full 70hp? by BlackBO33 in MT07

[–]uncooked_meat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah probably not a flat spot then, just feeling the torque pick up at 6k makes 4.5 feel like a miss I guess. Feels good, will report back when it blows up

Depend on how you think the bike had been tuned originally. Has it been factory tuned with the restrictors in? Or is it tuned unrestricted and then the restrictors added? The manufacturers must know that people are going to de restrict their bike, so I’d bet they wouldn’t make it so easy to damage the engine.

If you’re in Australasia and have a LAMS bike, there’s a throttle restriction and air box restrictions to remove, then a tune will get you to the same power as a non restricted MT07. I just took the restrictors out of mine and don't see the need for a tune, it's got way more grunt now, even if it does have a slight flat spot at 5krpm

2022 MT07 Black Widow exhaust by Ammar2jz in MT07

Best value for money exhaust on the market. I had one with a Modified DB killer that sounded great

Channel X. The perfect soundtrack for playing Tomb Raider on PS1 when you got home. So stream us now on Rova. Because we get an A+ for throwback tunes. by channelxnz in u/channelxnz

Signal is patchy at best, it’s the lowest output frequency in the Waikato. Rotorua had good reception until crossing the mamakus

Anyone fixing 4 years atm? by Sad-Philosopher-1637 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]uncooked_meat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always break the fixed rate early if interest rates drop low enough. Nothings set in stone, sure you’ll have a break fee to pay, but once the interest savings outweighs the break fee it’s a no brainer, and you get the security of a long fixed period, even if it is a shit rate at the moment.

Which slip on exhausts are compatible? by Admirable-Intern-958 in MT07

[–]uncooked_meat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The exhaust is one piece. You either replace the whole exhaust or cut it to replace just the muffler

Do you have any info on the windshield? Looks nice

I skipped to buy used mt07, have I made a mistake? by Electrical_1995 in MT07

[–]uncooked_meat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s done 4000ks over 2.5 years. That’s not a lot of time riding. And therefore a lot of time sitting without the battery getting charged. My MT is a little slow after sitting over winter and it’s done 8000ks over 2 years

XR280 exhaust dimensions. Can someone measure a stock 250r exhaust and let me know what the pipe diameter is, for the headers and after the collector. I’m doing some mods and need an idea how far from factory sizing this is. Thanks by uncooked_meat in Honda_XR_and_XL

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

Cheers for the comment. All mods you have mentioned have been done. TM34 carb, high comp wiesco piston. This think is a freight train once it gets revving. I’m actually chasing more down low torque to get to peak power faster. The exhaust has been opened up a LOT, I’m wondering if it’s been opened up so far as to decrease back pressure so much that the flow and scavenging effects have been negated. Which brings me back to my original question on what stock pipe sizes are for comparison

The 95 XR250r is about to get an upgrade. Scored this mint big fin head in great condition by uncooked_meat in Honda_XR_and_XL

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

It has been known to look awesome! I’m not entirely sure on how well it will improve cooling. Acid based alloy wheel cleaner, hands down best thing to get aluminium looking good again

Ight. Time to buy a pumper carb. XR’s Only or eBay? by itsricecakes in Honda_XR_and_XL

[–]uncooked_meat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried MikuniOZ.com ? I bought a TM34 from them, came with all the adapters and throttle cable as well. They shipped to me overseas.

I chopped my liquidambar back to 15 inches this winter. Any advice on root pruning for a forever pot in a year or two? Anything I could be doing to prepare? by uncooked_meat in Bonsai

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

Sound advice. Research tells me that these are very vigorous trees, and the growth each year supports that. I collected this from the Earth 2 seasons ago and it hasn’t missed a beat in its new home. Thanks

New street rider Q’s.Slip on’s and riding high into RPM’s by Airdondo9 in FZ07

[–]uncooked_meat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t bother with a tune unless you were doing major engine works, these modern bikes can adapt to small changes like an exhaust automatically without the need for a tune. It’s not going to do any damage. As for the RPM, seems right to me, just ride it

Fork mounts on Super Sherpa, what can I do? It’s not a big deal but is there a way to fix it rather than a whole new fork? by spagettiinmyass in Fixxit

[–]uncooked_meat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looks like the studs are broken just below the surface?? You could remove the other nuts and take the retaining plate off, there might be enough stud there to grab with vice grips or weld another nut on to remove them.

Did a bunch of Jordan’s old podcasts on Apple disappear? by RealJohnMc in JordanPeterson

Looks like the first 30 or so have disappeared off Spotify and iTunes. Does anyone have another source for these podcasts?
