I got no good winter riding gear, just gotta wait till it gets a bit warmer

At what temp is heated gear needed?

I have waterproof jacket and pants and plenty or ski mid/base layers to throw on.

>>14109679
Temp isn't always the only factor. 40F feels better in the city than on the highway.

>>14109673
Just put on a warm sweater (or two) on underneath your gear.

>>14109679
Depends on your bike, your perception of heat and where you ride.

Best chain lube? What do you guys use? I have a CBR500R if it makes any difference

>>14109699

>>14110868
I intend to. My hope is that by being fixed to my head, it will be easier to locate objects behind me. I find that with even small changes in riding positions (and my mirrors being POS that refuse to stay in place reliably) that even when I can see something behind me, I can't reliably tell WHERE it is in relation to me without having to turn almost all the way around and check. Or in mathematical terms: it's a fixed coordinate translation, rather than a variable one.
I could be incorrect, and I could merely have irredeemably shit spatial awareness, but I'm willing to bet £250 on the chance it could be an improvement.

It is never too cold to ride. The additional layers just add crash safety.

I won't stop riding unless there is ice on the roads.

I've ridden when it was 35 degrees fahrenheit and pouring rain. I was freezing and soaked when I got home. Yet it was a good ride and the hot bath afterwards was wonderful.

the problem is wheelies are incredibly easy to explain but that's not the difficulty, essentially it just comes down to sitting back on the seat, applying power then quickly "popping" the clutch with one finger. (With your foot on the rear brake to save it when shit gets real) But in practice it's a lot of practice to solve the riddle of steel and figure out the winning combo to make your bike wheelie right.

Congrats, don't die, fuck bitches.

Unless you have the clutch pulled in, that's normal.

>>14111856
is that a PCJ-600?

i always wanted a irl PCJ-600

>>14111858
Really? It really jerks forward at times, and sounds like it almost stalls. Really looking forward to EFI

>>14111863
It says so in the file name

What the fuck?

>>14111864
You should have the clutch pulled in partially and be riding in the friction zone at that point. You could also check driveline lash. If the chain/belt/whatever is too loose it makes it worse.

>>14111870
I like it anon :)

My bike does that too. Is your bike a single cylinder? I think it's pretty normal with those but I've never ridden any multi-cyl bikes.

>>14111879
That could actually be the case, there seems to be a rattling sound at low speeds which I always shrugged off to valves. I'll have to tell the bloke that'll unrestrict my bike in the spring to check it out, too

Yeah, is actually BMW f650. Runs like a charm apart from that

>>14111892
yeah, big single cylinders don't take low revs very well, your bike is fine.

>>14111887
How is it restricted?

>>14111887
I probably wouldn't bother with that. It's just the nature of singles.

in typical BMW fashion, completely overengineered with a smaller intake manifold (ansaugstutzen in german, no idea if that's the correct translation) pic related. i'd have preferred just a little thingy at the throttle, but no.

>>14111901
>>14111912
if you guys say so. only other bike i've ever ridden was a EFI-parralel twin that was smooth as butter at low revs, so i'm kinda spoiled

>>14111915
I've ridden a F650 in driving school, and it would start bogging really easily in the lower revs, while my V-Strom (with the V-Twin) pretty much doesn't bog at all.

>tfw would be still considering a bmw gs1200 for 6500€ if I hadn't lended a shit load of money to my father

I'm angry on a level you don't understand.

>>14111933
how many kms would that thing have had? like 150.000?

>Tfw watching the house as family goes away to check on grandparents
>New "tactical" Nomex gloves, good for riding, and a pair of fleece-lined jeans
>Fork seals/wipers and a seal for the small drip my propeller shaft has
My family is pretty damn good. And that's not counting the /k/ related stuff, like a free AR lower and Chinese SKS stock kind random people gifted me, or the shoulder holster I bought myself.
>Gonna go throw on some tunes and go try and see if it's a fuse or corroded relay or whatever that's stopping my cooling fan unit from activating
>Maybe straighten my rad fins a bit, see what else I can do to get it ready for Spring
How's your Christmas, /dbt/?

>>14111790
should I practice first on a bicycle? it seems to be completely different tho

and by popping the clutch do you mean pressing and releasing fast?

that's actually pretty reasonable. those engines will easily do 150 k, that's what i wanted to say

>>14111954
I think it was a GS, so an EFI one. Still, the SV650 I also rode was also much, much smoother in the lower revs.

>>14111968
yeat, that's because the 650 BMWs are all singles. i really prefer the bigger ones

Any tutorials on how to play with the electrical aspects of the bike?
Like switching blinkers, back lights, buying brand new front to make dirt bikes legals and all that?
