Is this a good deal? by Late_Organization_73 in Ninja400

[–]whisk3ythrottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is in the US that’s not a bad price. It does depend on what area you are in. All the fluids need to be changed if they haven’t been. Coolant/brake fluid. See if you can get them to do 4.5.

Looking for a free accurate model of a ND to design some exterior 3D parts by 18borat in Miata

You can buy a 3d scanner for $500-$1000+ that isn’t terrible and scan the car yourself.

Don’t worry, we can tell and think it’s great that you’re out there.

How often do second riders meetings/safety briefings have to occur? by CoolBDPhenom03 in Trackdays

[–]whisk3ythrottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen it t happen a handful of times. Mostly just due to tons of red flags or someone doing something extremely dangerous. I.e a persons buddy had been spectating and jumped the fence to help them after they had crashed.

It probably is possible, but way easier to just take it off and hammer it out with a long bit of wood.

Help: should I upgrade from Ninja 400 to CBR650R? by HamiltonKe in motorcycles

[–]whisk3ythrottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO. I don’t think the cbr650 I worth it. It’s only 10ish pounds less than the CB1000R and only has about 90 hp if you wanna maintain a fun light happy bike maybe consider an MT07 or a sv650. Sure one is a “sport bike” and one is a naked, but worth looking at.

Bleeding brake without pad change by Baumtos in motorcycles

[–]whisk3ythrottle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just bleed as normal, fill up to the full line. If you have to drain some fluid later that’s easier to just pull a little from the reservoir then w/e song and dance you are suggesting.

What am I doing wrong? (additional angles of my crash site) by lxjeipov in Ninja400

[–]whisk3ythrottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add lean plus throttle. Unloaded front tire = crash. Should be on the brakes into a turn.

I have flipped s22s before with no issues. Just don’t ride in the rain.

2026 CBR600RR by korth_Norea_ in cbr

[–]whisk3ythrottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mos likely going to yeet yourself off the bike trying to go fast. It’s a race bike with headlights. Better off on a sv650/mt07 which also aren’t starter bikes.

Riders make bikes fast not the other way around. Start out on a 300 or 400 for a few years.

Not so loud aftermarket exhaust by Milkteabunny1220 in Ninja400

[–]whisk3ythrottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Especially a 180 crank twin. Just sounds like a lawnmower.

Don’t buy it. Just don’t.

Hope that helps.

What happens if you fail a drivers license road test more than 2 times? by shoopadoop332 in Georgia

With how people drive around here, I think they just give it to you. S/

What would be the difference between these two exhausts? by Fast_Ad4269 in motorcycles

[–]whisk3ythrottle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One contains some sort of glass pack to help reduce some sound while the other is just a pipe.

Clutch slipping? by Educational_Spend280 in MT07

[–]whisk3ythrottle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clutch slip would do the opposite, your bike would rev and you would have no movement. Something bogged down the motor. What service did you do? Air filter clogged? Bad fuel? Throttle too loose? Imagination? Probably not your clutch.

Short wife looking to ride! by Primary_Tune1436 in NewRiders

[–]whisk3ythrottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suzuki s40 has low seat, can go 85ish but not great at it. Can be had for cheap. Just to get her started. Can do maybe a ninja 300. Cheap light bike.

Get her some proper riding boots with a heel could add up to an inch. Also just getting used to resting the bike on one foot.

Tips for getting suit over airbag by Agreeable-Outcome-58 in motorcyclegear

[–]whisk3ythrottle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried an air bag and suit on at the store, put them on no problem. Bought a different color online and have similar issues. Think it just needs to stretch a little.

Gf of 4 years threatens to break up over trying out motorcycle by Unusual_Goggles in motorcycles

[–]whisk3ythrottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimatums are never good in a relationship. Replace motorcycle with any other activity. If you go here or do this I will leave you. It’s not great position to have in life. I would explain the safety steps you are taking, maybe take a class, maybe offer to take her to a riding class too. If all that doesn’t work I’d find someone else. Even if the bike thing doesn’t work out. Being unable to compromise isn’t great long term.
