Yes, but the thermobob is a radiator bypass some autist thought up for the KLR, turns out most bikes lack it.
It's not a big deal if you flog your bike all the time in a hot environment, but at lower temperatures when you commute it gets important, Especially with two radiators that can cool water much more

>>14198109
>the KLR comes with a thermostat factory
yes
>The thermostat does the job of a thermobob.
The thermobob is a modification of the cooling system.
The mod proper is just the bypass hose, but you put in a different thermostat without a bleed hole (because it's not needed anymore leading to faster warmup) and different temperature rating (since the flow is different and there's a much better control on the coolant temperature)

At least is what I was referring to with thermobob

I can see it helping but I see it more as another coolant hose to burst or get punctures and a bunch of fittings to leak. I don't have a thermostat in my XR right now so it runs cool, but I have more problems keeping it cool when riding than the opposite.

god damn. to the anon who posted the SWM, fuck you. Now I want to look at one in person and I guess I will do so tomorrow.
There are two dealers in about 1 hour drive away from me, guess it's time to sit on some bikes.

>>14198249
the XT 660 also has two mufflers. Maybe it helps for the A2 because it has a kW/KG limit, thus more (removable) weight will make the power which you will get written down in your papers higher.
>>
>>14198194
Dunno, despite all the horror stories I never had any problem with liquid cooling, I'd rather have the engine operating at proper temperature. Probably will wait a little more to see how it behaves.

I thought the issue was that it's a penetrant. It gets into the chain and dissolves/drives out/kills the lubricant inside.

HEY SEM GUYS
HEY
what
what if we write SWM that we would love to take theri bike for longer test, then everyone of us gets thier favourite SWM model sponsored and rides to the SEM with it?
like for example one gets a Superdual and rides from thier home to the SEM location and then after SEM we all ride to norway, everything sponsored by SWM for "testing" thier bikes, and then we sell it as a report later and get mad dosh for it?
>or a sponsorship
ayy lmao

I've owned one for 6 months, it is a great commuter but it tops out at 80mph. Not even joking, it is damn near out of breath at 75.
It is a great bike for my non highway commuting though, FI makes warming up more of an issue to get the oil warmed up.
The bolts on the body work like to get loose and dealing with the plastic & tank to check is a bit of a pain because of the FI and the way some of the tubes are routed.
Solid bike, people ask what it is at gas stations, Chinese immigrants are surprised to see it because it is made & sold over there.
That is right, it is made in China and sold there and here in the US.
However, my bitch is that it is pretty heavy and the stock mirrors are pretty useless to see what is behind you.

A Ninja 250 and CBR250 are not sports bikes. They are well disguised standards with aerodynamic fairings. I will say that I bought the GW250 over used CBR250s and Ninjas because I wanted a FI bike that had a SOHC, little vibration and naked styling, it was also 1kUSD cheaper then a new CBR.
However, if FI and fairing weren't an issue, wanted a commuter bike I could take over a mountain highway, I would have gotten a CBR or GS500.
>>
>>14200497
>wanted SOHC over DOHC

For what purpose?
>>
Hoping somebody could point me in the right direction.

I have a 2008 wr250x.

I recently filled the air in my tyres back up because they had leaked about 8 psi from sitting. Since then, I've found that when riding there is a small, but noticeable, bump coming from one or both of my tyres. I feel as if it's the front tyre but it's hard to discern.

It's consistent in nature, which lead me to think it was something in the tyre. I've thoroughly checked front and back to no avail.

I am running my tyres on 28psi front and back, so to test I deflated my tyres back to 20psi. The bump remained, so I reinflated them.

It doesn't go away after riding for x amount of time and I can't notice it during corners.

Any ideas? I feel like the tyres might be fucked which would not be too bad because they're getting replaced when I can afford it.
>>
>>14200600
sounds like something is failing in the tire.
try over inflating both to max rated pressure and spin the tires and see if you can see a deformation in it as it spins
>>
>>14200639
I don't have a wheelstand anymore so I can't free spin the tyre. Would that work just rolling it forward and back?
>>
>>14200600
Might just be out of balance. Also check around the bead to see if it looks like the tire is seated evenly all around the rim on both sides of both tires.
>>
>>14200648
put it on blocks or a bucket or just lay it over or tip it up on the kickstand. its not a big bike.
you want to spin it with the bike static so you can see irregularities a lot easier
>>
>>14200648
Put your bike on a bucket and spin the wheels.
>>
>>14200600
28 sounds awfully low. I know its a light bike but still...

They may have flatspoted from sitting, which is usually more common in cheap tires. What brand do you run?

His reasons when I asked him

1. Road speeds are for the most part 45 MPH from our house to his workplace. The highest is 55 MPH and it's only for a few miles.

2. Huge tuning community of autistic faggots who drop thousands into an already overpriced bike that's basically just a manual transmission scooter dressed up like a streetfighter.

3. He's a manlet and likes small bikes.

4. He has never owned a motorcycle and wants to start with something small.

Ok, I'll give that a shot next. I let my friend borrow my compressor so I will have to do that tomorrow.

>>14200678
Most of the stuff I've read recommends pressures in the 26-32 range for the bike. I've played around with pressures and found 28f 28r to be comfortable for the type of riding I do. I also don't really care about getting more mileage out of the tyres.

It has shinko's on it. SR740 front 741 rear. They're not fantastic tyres, I know, but they had enough tread when I bought to the bike to keep it going until I make some room in my budget for nicer ones.
>>
>>14200723
is it used? if so, get off his ass. he'll learn he needs something bigger.

SOHC by itself does not make an engine more torquey, that comes down to how the different components of the engine are tuned (camshafts, fuel mapping etc).

Yeah I have a motorcycle I have put about 15,000 miles on and how many hours have you spent on a real race track? Of course Tourist Trophy isn't as good as the real thing. But I guarantee I can navigate a race track in a simulator and IRL better than you. Buy the game and we can compare lap times.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my MSF course, and I’ve been involved in numerous group rides, and I have over 300 confirmed miles. I am trained in basic motorcycle maneuvers and I’m the top gamer in the entire /ovg/ thread. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my /ovg/ gamer friends and we will beat you in any video game track right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can beat you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my controller. Not only am I extensively trained in how to lean a bike, but I have access to the entire video game archive and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of /o/, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

>I don't understand how having SOHC is going to provide and sort of benefit over DOHC in that situation.
It is a commuter bike that gets +1000 miles put on it a month, because it is a SOHC with 2 valves per cylinder, whenever I get in there I only have to do 4 valves instead of 8 or more.
SOHC aren't going to make a engine more torquey, but the bike is geared for lowend, and the SOHC helps and makes engine braking more effective.

Me too, I really want to go hektik but I value my life somewhat so I limit myself to like 110km/h

The GS500 has the exact same tires as a ninja 250 and leaner tires mean better handling

>>14202909
GS500's are barely faster than Ninja 250's and have roughly the same top speed.

>plus 250cc bikes cant do continual freeway travel of 150km all the time

Bullshit, they don't magically explode if you sit at 9k revs for a couple of hours.

>plus it had wider tyers so you can lean the bike more then a 250

GS500s have the same tyre sizes (110/70 17 f, 130/70 17 r) as a Ninja 250.

Peg positioning dictates lean angle more than tyre width, otherwise supersports with 190 section rear tyres wouldn't turn for shit.

No, really. It's very light and narrow so you'll filter past literally everything, and it's fast enough to beat pretty much everything off the line. It's got more torque than a ninjette so it handles low revs better.unless yiur city has more potholes than asphalt, in which case crf250m

>shitty brakes
It's the lines, the discs and calipers are tge same used in 80's GSX-R and 90's-00's GSX-F but with only one disc and smaller M/C. GSX-F has spongy as fuck brakes, too, until you upgrade the lines to braided steel.
