And I'm afraid to load too much the back tire if I carry sidebags, rucksack and tent all in the back.

All your shit is gonna be less weight on the back than riding two up, and unless you're huge yourself most bikes are fine with just stock preload bumped up. Can confirm tankbags look like shit though, mine gets used mostly as GPS holder since it has a see through bit on the top. Consider something like a Kriega or knockoff, a backpack that you can attach to your tail?

>Consider something like a Kriega or knockoff, a backpack that you can attach to your tail?

Yes, but it's kinda redundant since I already have a rucksack and I don't really want to carry a backpack around.

>>15404035
That's some top tier rope work you got there

>>15404053
I'm not huge but I might have to adjust the preload anyway, right now it feels too stiff.

Yeah I like the idea of being able to lay on top of it, but I don't think I can fit anything big enough for that on my bike.

Anyone got a recommendation for a helmet intercom for at least 5 people? Even up to about 10 people possibly.

Anyone tried an ebay special intercom system? The most popular brands are so expensive that I'm going to try hooking up portable CB radios to helmets tomorrow but it's definitely not ideal.

help!

My bike just up and died while riding. I was going about 40mph and the engine went quiet and I pulled over. I tried starting it again but the engine wouldn't turn over. I messed with the choke and it didn't seem to matter. This is the second time this has happened, first time I had the spark plugs changed and the bike started and got home ok.

I am currently on the side of the road waiting for AAA to tow me to the shop. I just wanted to get an idea of what could be wrong before I get to the mechanic.

The bike is a 2007 Honda shadow spirit 750 chain drive.

Because you go faster on the Autobahn. I avoided it on the way to the SEM, went around 100-120 unless I was going through towns and fueled up every ~250 km with still more left in the tank; on the way back I used the Autobahn going 140 almost constantly and almost ran dry after 180-200 km. Wind resistance increases faster than linear with speed.

thing with Italy is that they want good Bosch electric, but then they buy Bosch and don't have money left because they want sell cheap so they buy the other parts magnetic Marelli and they don't harmony that good if in one ECU
they can't Bosch and MM in one ECU

So something weird is happening

I reactivated the old GB500 Clubman again, and as the battery is pretty much dead after the long standing time, the e-start didn't work. She started beautifully with the kickstart though.

Then, the blinkers ONLY work when i press either brake. And when I brake, all the lights (headlight, neutral, kickstand etc) start flickering.

Is this just a dead battery or are the electrics fuckt?

How to clutch wheelie?
I can power wheelie fair enough but I can't get the clutch up right, 2nd gear is a struggle and I can hardly do it. 1st is no problem though, I'm thinking I'm not using enough throttle but I just get a little bit air but the clutch seems to slip...
almost 70,000km on the bike, I don't know if the clutch has been changed. How long do clutches usually last? Or do I just need to spend a day practicing and kill the clutch anyway?

>>15404652
Forgot to mention it's a z1000 so it should have no problem to clutch wheelie.

>>15404652
70k is quite a run for one clutch, depends on how it's been used.

If frequent clutch in attempts and aggressive shifting surely might need replacement.

You should be able to notice it yourself though, if the clutch is baked it should slip, rpms increase without outputting any more power thus not allowing you to clutch wheelie.

my local bike shop said the ninja 300 is arguably the best beginner bike. is this true? or was the cunt trying to sell me his old shitty bike

neither does your dealer. If it takes more than 2 days to diagnose the problem, it safe to say your repair bill will be in the thousands. That's what you get for buying a shit brand.

>>15404286
>ive just started the search and to be quite honest i cannot find much for the price so im wondering if its just because its rider season or i got my hopes up too high
It's because you're looking for 300s. They're only really a thing in Murrica and third world countries. Pretty much everyone in Europe rides a restricted 500cc+ bike on A2.

are you sure they're even working on your bike? its probably just sitting in the service department area. Bikes dont have miles of wiring like cars do. Give your dealer a call and ask them if they found out the problem yet.

A 1988 BMW K100RS caught my eye and captured my heart.

Are these bikes worth owning or will I step into a world of despair and agony like I did with my BMW 750?
The K100RS apparently has barely half the power of my liter FZR despite being 4 pot too and it's apparently quite heavy to boot.
Aren't they fuel injected though, so shouldn't the mpgs be pretty decent?

If you sprocket is visibly worn away, then you need a new chain and sprocket (always good to replace both at the same time), if not, it'll be the cam tensioner.

When I head off to Bled it'll take me probably two days to get there, I'm not going to ride on the Autobahn

>>15405236
Because I like older bikes and I fell in love with the looks. That's also a thinly veiled "I'm poor".
I could get another Aprilia RSV for the same price, but that would be much more unreliable than the BMW, I'm 100% sure of that.
Also could get a Ducati 600 Dark but that too is both Italian and old, so I doubt it would be any better.

Then there would be this one 1000cc Kawasaki ZZR, think it was a 98 model and from my experience Kawasakis are hardy little machines with power to back up the looks.

>>15405241
Why'd you hate it? The 75 is the 750cc 3 cylinder one right?

My mistake, was actually a 1991 1100cc ZZR, deepest apologies.

Full engine overhaul done 12k km ago with new seals everywhere, pistons and rings. Obviously new headgasked and the head was apparently planed too.
3k km ago new sprockets and chain.

The thing seems to be pretty much pristine and the owner stated that he's willing to give a test ride but only if he sees that you own a license and deems you experienced enough. Apparently is only selling it to experienced owners too who know how to ride a heavy powerboat and take care of it.

I dunno man. I mean, I did have a Ninja a long time ago and currently the liter FZR, but am not sure if I'm THAT experienced as a driver.
The ZZR apparently pushes out 150hp whereas my FZR is at 130 or so.

They are about 2,5 hours away from your camping spot.
But getting to your camping spot would take 9,5 hours for 550km from my home, I thought that's a bit much, hence I searched for spots further in the west/north

When selecting a helmet, exactly how tight is tight enough? After trying one on in a store, I bought an RF-1200 online and it just got here today. The cheekpads are nice and snug and I have no slack in the forehead area but if I swing my head side to side rapidly the helmet will move slightly around my head. Should this be a dealbreaker?

It should squish your cheeks when you try to turn it on your head. I'd exchange one size down because the pads will get looser once it's broken in. Most importantly though, wear it for an hour or something to make sure there's no pressure points.

But if you guys are willing to take a detour to us we'll wait for you.

If you decide to come south passing by Cortina D'ampezzo I suggest you take a detour trough Misurina and Auronzo di Cadore, it's pretty good. pic related.

249€ from amazon, should be enough to do all the standard maintenance on her bike and car herself.
(and I can use it myself)
I was actually amazed how cheap it was. Sure Wera, Hazet and so on are better but the price is no relation to what you get for a hobby mechanic.

yeah I also have the torque wrench that you have in your pic
>Its a gift, hope she likes it.
It's a very nice gift, I think she'll love the tools when she needs them
My Maul- and Ringschlüsselsatz only goes up to 21mm. Has the one you bought also that handy assembly where you can put them in?

>>15405855
I will keep that part in mind, thanks.
Regarding meeting up, I think we can talk about this when the time has come

>>15405880
>249€ from amazon
That's pretty reasonable.

>>15405886
>Regarding meeting up, I think we can talk about this when the time has come
We're gonna fuck it up somehow, don't worry about it

>>15405886
the time is now

>>15405886
>Has the one you bought also that handy assembly where you can put them in?
sadly no. It was a difficult decision, choosing between more tools or nice storage option.
But the biggest spanner is needed for the rear axle, so it had to be the bigger set. Its a shame they dont do one with that nice storage thingy yours has>>15405753

yeah the storage option is nice, but I could also use the bigger ones.
Tbh it bugs me a bit that the screw drivers are just flying around loosely
I'll try to build a small box where I can put all that stuff in ordentlich though, right now it's only in a shoe box. It works too but not perfectly.
