It the turbulence against my helmet that gives me headaches, after several hours I take a paracetamol and it's gone.
At least, that's how it used to be. Now I also need shit to keep my right hand from not hurting like hell. It's kinda fucked after I crashed it last year.

When you buy a Harley you're buying 3/4 of a kit, you're buying the shit it needed to pass emission standards. Both noise and otherwise.

Always factor in another 25% to make it a "real" Harley by unfuckulating the shitacular factorial crap. See Harley getting dickslapped by the EPA for SE Race tuners..

They're big inefficient shitbeast bikes that are more of a lifestyle than a straight up bike purchase. Theres a reason the fuckin Harley branded aftermarket catalog is almost as thick as the JP/DS one, you bought an unfinished bike that passed the green test by a hair, now that it's yours the dealer can install all your shit with factory warranty (For the most part)

We refer to this 25% off the hop as part of the "Harley" tax.

Even this set of V&H slipons on my dyna cost bit, theres an SE Heavy Breather to go on and an SE tuner came with the bike to defeat EPA cuckery. I paid 200% more for half the bike of most other modern producers. this is just kind of a given.

I'll be goy as a motherfuck for how many times I've got my dick wet for putting that bike in the tinder profile.

That's about all its good for is impressing dumb bints. Nobody is getting wet over a vstrom.

Highschool chicks think Harleys are badass, middle aged milfs think Harleys mean you have a decent paying job, its win win.

The sportsters are affordable, ultra reliable, and I challenge you to find a bike with a greater aftermarket.

The sportster is the AR15 of the bike world.

>>16666493
That's not too bad of a price for a 525 but only buy it if you have about an extra $1000 to rebuild it because it will be nearing the end of its life. IIRC the SX is only a 4-speed but if you end up doing a full rebuild you can swap in a shift drum and extra gear from an EXC/MXC and get a 6 speed.

>>16669170
Im not talking stickers and tank bags, with the amount of frames, transmissions, forks, bars, tires, chains, belts and kickstart/big bore kits you can make a sportster into literally anything you want all on the same good engine since the 80s.

"Advertised pricing excludes applicable taxes title and licensing, dealer set up, destination, reconditioning"

Reconditioning? The published used bike price doesn't include some magic number for fixing it up to sell? Fucking stealerships.

Plus... "ng excludes ALL added parts and accessories. Contact dealer for details.ADDED EQUIPMENT:MIRROR ADAPTER $39.90MIRRO ... TOTAL ACCESSORIES ADDED$1331.35"

So the real price is $3330.35 + some random "reconditioning" fee, say $500, so $3830.35.

>>16669363

It's an 81 XJ650 inline 4 shaft drive, pic related, I made a bracket to hold the whole ass end rigid. I've seen half-ass jobs all over with guys rigid mounting the stock final drive assembly but holy fuck physics says that's a stupid and bad idea in the long run, crack crack crack. Because of stresses with one gear climbing another I overbuilt the ass end with structural blackpipe used in oilfield construction, slugged it to the mid frame and used the heaviest shit I could.

I burned in a 13 cause chopper, chopper, chopper.

Thanks dude, I'm a Harley guy and I keep arguing to deaf ears that the chopper movement was barely about Harley at all and that japanese bikes far, FAR outnumbered the amount of fat Harley frames with narrow front ends bolted to them.

Don't do it it kills resale and you'll look like a squid

>>16669548
nope, clearcoat is over it

>>16669529

I live in Soviet Canuckistan, SGI, (Saskatchewan) doesn't even want to see the vehicle if it's more than 30 years old, They classify it as an antique and charge you the base $22 a month, you get $800 max if it wrecks unless you get a package policy.

Makes it fun to take a 1985 truck out on the road that looks like it was a reject from a Mad Max film "NO I DONT NEED WINDOWS WHAT THE FUCK SGI SAYS ITS COOL"

>>16669556
this. everyone who sees your bike will think you crashed it, especially potential future buyers

>>16669548
Also you never posted the 300zx or more pics of your bike :(

>>16669561
Yep

>>16669548
just colour the stickers in with permanent marker

>>16669548
>I just want a straight black bike
It will look like shit. Also everyone will assume you just crashed the bike and replaced the fairings with chink straight black ones because you couldn't afford the proper parts.

>>16669563
Just sticker bomb the whole thing with weeb slaps

>>16669556
I dont care how I look to other people and it's a 300, it'd keep its resale if he gets dragged through shit just as long as the engine works

>>16669558
Damn that sucks, thanks for the heads up

>>16669560
do you get health insurance claims rejected for riding antiques?

>>16669571
I don't think you really understand, you've killed your resale just by buying a new bike. If you remove decals people will think you've crashed or dropped the bike and will not even look at your ad

>>16669562
I will probably this friday I took the day off work just so I can go get all my DMV stuff done plus I was busy tearing it down to put sliders on it

>>16669565
Again I dont care what people think, think all you want about me all I care about is having fun on my bike bro

>>16669571
its a 300, just ride it until you feel like it is the piece of shit that it is and move on, don't fuck with it, all you are doing is hurting the resale value like a fucking moron.

>>16669573

Nope, but I think it limits how much up to 800k we can find the other driver at fault for, not sure. I'll be honest anon, it's really hard to argue with the only insurance place a person can go to when they say "Heres your plate, heres your insurance, it's $22 a month and your vehicle can be in whatever condition"

I can literallly take the stamped number from my XJ, engrave it onto a modern bike, call it an XJ650 and insure it as such, the system is... driver friendly.

so you want to reduce the resell vaulue by $1000 just so you can have no stickers?
how fucking autistic are you?
its not a fast bike and no one will ever think it is no matter how many r3 stickers you take off it mate.

just deal with it

>>16669608
Do you plan on selling it ever? Because it won't sell if you rip them off. Especially not if you price it to sell, because then people will think you've crashed it or something.
I'm telling you just leave them, you're going to sell the bike in a year's time, might as well make it easy on yourself.

>>16670239
what the fuck is this

>>16670239
please not rossi

Can someone explain to me what the fuck is going on

I have a 2007 yamaha xt225. The battery crapped out a while ago so I got a new one just a few hours ago. I put it in the bike and everything worked just fine.

I just went to go hop on my bike and it started turning over. I stopped before it could start because I was close to my roommates window. I moved the bike out into the street to start it and all it did was make a click sound from the starter relay. I opened up the motorcycle, everything looks good. I fiddled around with the wires for a bit to double check connections. Stood up and went to turn on the bike and the lights are really dim, like the battery is dying.

I just fucking spent $100 on a new battery. Wtf is going on?

>>16670265
are you the femanon who ripped another anon apart on the touge the other day?

and you already let the battery go flat, push start it and ride it for an hour or two and should be all sweet.

>>16670281
No I'm not

And how could the battery have already died? I had the keys in for like one minute at most

>>16670290
Did the battery say it came fully charged?

Did you charge it?

>>16670306
Yeah, it was fully charged. I just tried jumping it and it's still just making a click from the starter relay

>>16670317 here
Even with jumper cables attached, the lights are still going dimmer

>>16670317
>>16670330
Sounds like a wiring issue then, either you have a crap connection to the battery, or something is allowing it to discharge. You really need a multimeter to diagnose shit like this.

>>16670330
just buy a kickstarter unit and stop being a pussy

>>16670265
bad stator

>>16670382
Are you sure? It sounds more like electrical issues like >>16670366 said

Getting a new starter is expensive isn't it?...

>>16670382
>>16670399
Fuck I read what you sad as starter. How much is a stator to fix?

I want to get into riding but im honestly a huge retard and will probably space off while riding and get in a crash that fucks me up, should i still go for it or stick to driving a car

>>16670541
Ride the bus desu

>>16670553
i drive a car just fine, never got in any kind of accident before.

>>16670557
Just do it if you really want to. It's really liberating and brings a lot to your life. Just start out easy and be careful and always wear all your gear and you should be fine. Riding a motorcycle is a lot less hard and scary than most people think

Agusta is beautiful. Glad they got out of their money woes recently, they make such nice machines
