[!] MaxWrist Update [!]

Well lads, things aren't looking good for our good friend MaxWrist. A few Redditors basically dug into his life and figured out that he was sentenced to prison for child abuse, physical assault on a woman, and sodomy. Sounded kinda crazy to me at first but it looks like it's all fucking true according to what this one dude said and the military court records. Dude lived in North Carolina with some woman and her two kids and he beat the shit out of her and abused the two kids regularly from what I can understand. The scariest part is the woman even has a blog where she documented all of it.

Some people are saying that the press releases in these italian news segments were somehow faked since they make no mention of all these charges and only mention the reckless driving which actually had very little to do with his sentence at all.

Im looking for a good Dual-sport motorcycle.

I've started on my GS500 and need something like this :

> up to 48 hp
> easy to maintain
> not a lot of electronics
> preferably something from 2000 or earlier
> mostly using it in the city but need to be prepared for bad weather, snow, heavy rain, etc.

Does anyone of you have an idea what to get?

Reposting.

Is it something usual for bike groups to use the first bike to block the traffic on the primary road for all the other bikes to not have to yeld at the stop?
Because I saw one doing this yesterday.

>>16910875
Yeah, I suppose. Call me evil but I don't really give a shit. I enjoy his content for what it is. I don't need to know anything else

>>16910879
Yes. Otherwise the group would be separated and would create an even larger block of traffic.
Its safer and faster to just move through all at once

>>16910879
Yes bolzanon, that is the kind of niggery you expect from Harley riders

>>16910887

You might want electric start for the city, I'd look into the XR650L or even DR650. As much as I like 80's dual sports, it's nice having something still in production for longevity and ease of access to parts.

He is only asking for 2600 CAD but I think I can get it for closer to 2200 since it isn't certified.

Anything issues with these bikes I should look out for in particular? I've heard that the gearbox can be hit or miss and that the bikes have a tendency to shake and vibrate without a steering dampener.

Check with your instructor, you probably have minimum gear requirements. But from a practical standpoint:
Helmet, gloves, ankle-protecting footwear, heavy jacket (wear-resistant), heavy pants (thick jeans work in a pinch).

The armored stuff is only really useful once you get on the road/highway or can be hit by other things, for the lessons its probably not necessary.

My lessons were just in parking lots so it was mostly "wear what I need to not to get road rash or burned on the bike if I fall". On the road I usually wear armored stuff including the pants if it's not stupidly hot out.

>yep both, will i have to re take the theory ?
>only if you haven't been riding for over 2 years
thats a relief thought this was going to be expensive if i had to pay for a theory test too
> thats good news guess i wont have to take that then, how much would it cost me to do the mod 1 &2 on one of your bikes ?
> well we have an offer on at the moment -
yes sounds good pretty soon ill be driving around on my new bike and have some money left over for some new boots
>so to do you're mod1 and 2 it will cost just £615
>just £615
>£615.
£615 punds fucking sterling
are you having a giggle m8?
I looked on the gov. website and the mod 1 test cost £15 and the mod 2 test cos £80
But you can't take the test on a bike that isn't a 600cc (actually it comes down to horse power but cba to find it again) or bigger, which you cant ride before you get this licence to get practice on, which means you have to do it through a bike school and use their bikes.
which would be fine but they make you take so many lessons and charge you for the use of the bike on the test day.
>um yer but at least you don't have to take the theory again
> yer i guess i can use the £15 that cost to post an ad on ebay advertising my kidny so i can afford to essentually rent a heavily used bike for the day and ride it around a carpark for 20 minuets then go for an hours jolly and back to get a pice of plastic that says im trusted enough to be allowed to drive what i want.

Takes $50-$100(depending on state/county) for the MSF course, from there, goes to getting your full license after you pass a written and ridden test at the MSF. Or a 25 dollar permit for however long you have to have it (depending on your state/county) and taking a test yourself.

Yep. If somebody has gotten rid of their L-=plates, you know they're at least a decent level of competency. The MSF course is a joke, like below the requirements of even the laughable CBT, and MSF isn't even a requirement for the yanks.

The WOO WOO FREEDOM is even more hilarious when you look at their hilariously draconian but generally ineffective emissions and general auto (LOL lighting requirements) laws compared to EUROx.

lads: just reading 44t review of the 2017 r6. It has the same engine as the previous generation yet makes 7hp less (due to euro4 regs). Am i correct in thinking that if you bought the 2017 model, took out the cat and put a full system on it (+ a powercommander / dynojet thingy or whatever EFI bikes use to change fuel maps), that all it would require was a new fuelling set up to accomodate for the new exhaust & to get rid of the euro4 tuning stuff. Doing all this would mean you could get those extra 7hp back??

Probably not very coherent - basically I'm asking could you tune the bike to have the same HP figures as the previous gen seeing as the engine is identical?

and before anyone says i wasn't taking care of it sushhh, always kept them right epessially after the first one snapped, all 3 times i was accelerating with a big heavy rucksack on and a tank bag full of shit

already did, i blew a fair bit on a smaller rear sprocket and a bigger front (think im getting that the right way round i cant really remember it was a few 1000 miles ago) and a big srong chain that was branded and everything, took the bike in for a service and on the ride back home the chain snapped on the severn bridge

>>16911990
use a 530 chain, make sure it is tensioned correctly, and your rear wheel and transmission are aligned so the chain is straight.

>>16911990

I spent about 2700£ for my A restriction and around 2000£ for my B restrction

I have no friends so I had to do all my practice with a teacher charging 170gb for 90minutes.

I already had a year of riding experience, but that was from asia so it wasnt worth shit back in yrope. plus I realized ive done pretty much everything wrong anyway, so besides the obnoxious costs, the lessons did wonders.

>>16912007
>>16912008
yer figured that out just after i sent that dribble about O rings, pretty sure it WAS a 530 chain and it still snapped on me, right after it came out of the service too so it would have been done with the fancy lazer persision they have in there, i had to push the mother fucker back up the wrong way of the dule carrageway bridge (after i ran down to the toll booths and got them to shut the bridge) , changed the chain in the staff car park with a cheap one off the internet and shitty tools,
she runs fine

So i stumbled upon a H-D street 750 ad and their cited figures got me curious so i hit up Google
Turns out it has pretty much the same dyno sheet as an NC
Also the Monster 696/796 have very shit power
I remember people shitting in the shiver and the SV, but it turns out they are the best of the bunch

>>16912089
Perhaps the chain was too tight then...

>>16912121
yer thought that too but it might just be a combernation of things just gona make sure this one gets lube every day and adgust it every 50 miles just to be safe. once iv got this bike test out the way ill be looking at getting a bigger bike that can handle 70mph without being a 11000 rpm

>>16912097
The 2003 & up SV650 is a solid performer, under 12 second quarter miles in competent hands. The Shiver is the same they both have something H-D and Duc aren't or weren't big on, liquid cooling.

Don't be surprised when air cooled bikes have lower numbers than water-cooled counterparts. It is just a thermodynamic reality.

From what I've been reading it's possible that the premix ratio was just not right for the type of riding I was doing. I got a full jug of premix when I got the bike and don't know the ratio.

They're pretty solid bikes. Not the lightest or the most advanced chassis in the world, but the engine's got tons of torque, brakes are really strong, and suspension's decent enough once you get it set up for your weight.

I daily mine and it's excellent for that. The transmission can false neutral occasionally if you slack on the oil change intervals, but it hasn't been a huge issue (yet). The engine does vibe a lot more than a 600 and most 1000s, but it's not a huge problem. It's the worst at around 6-8k, anything before or after that and it's decently smooth.

I don't have a damper and I haven't had many problems with headshake, but during a trackday (pictured) I did have a bit of a butt-clenching moment when I overcooked the back straight at Thunderhill East and got into a bit of a tank slapper. Might have helped then, but I'm not sure. Powering out of corners generally didn't cause any serious oscillation, at least in my experience.

I use rainX anti-fog. Works like a charm, but you have to let your helmet air out before you put it on or you're gonna be huffing some stuff that makes you dizzy, but it works for a good 2 weeks unless you breath hard on it and wash it off.

>>16911827
if you went through all that you would probably get more then 7hp boost.

probably get something more like a 15 to 20 hp gain and a good a 20% increase to torque.

Honda's legendary oval cylinder meme engine was specifically an attempt to make an V8 engine that technically had 4 cylinders to satisfy the rules.

The RC211V was a 5 cylinder since the 990cc rules relaxed the limit from 4 to 6, I don't even know what the current liter MotoGP limit is.

Is the Honda Magna a good bike?

V65 magna is one of the best muscle bikes of the 80's.

Today its pretty mediocre but a cool cruiser bike with a good amount of power.

If you find one cheap and in good condition, no reason not to buy. They sound like sex with an exhaust and that V4 is one of the smoothest motors ever.

>>16913246
pastaroni power bro

hey DBT i've been noticing some clunky downshifts(or atleast these are more noticeable)
buti've adjusted the clutch.
isit possible that my oil level is too high, when cold(60 deg out) its square in the middle but once i run it it covers the whole window and more. Could a high oil level cause this? i know my buddies gsxr had this issue.... thanks.

>>16913246
Because they spent all week working on the engine and left on Friday at 2 before setting up the suspension

>>16913257
What about the magnas that arent the v65?

>>16913267
oil level with engine running means nothing

could be your chain is too tight or something, chain being out of whack can make your shifts feel weird

Man, when I'm in my 60s and ready to die, I'm totally going to buy a turbo busa and make some insane YouTube vids. I can't believe how selfish suicidal people are by not doing the same

>>16913269
Less powerful similar money. Why bother?

>>16913269
They're the same bike, just smaller engine

Uses a redone interceptor engine, not sure if it's true on the magnas as well as interceptor VFR's but you want to get one that's 86 or up because early ones had some oiling problems

>>16913292
Ive heard thay it was just the interceptor motor that had the oily issues.

>>16913267

The 80's Magnas had oil distribution issues as well. I wouldn't let that be a major deterrent though: my 84 Magna V30 served me beautifully for the few years I had it, despite being 30 years old and having 20k miles. As long as you change the oil and filter regularly you shouldn't expect any issues.

with that said, he probably IS a total shit bag since that style of riding requires it. but like I said, not my place to judge or give a fuck. i enjoyed the content and I am going to keep enjoying it. Would you stop using the best surgeon in town if you found out he was hella racist?

Vmax if you can find one. XS11 if you like air cooling. Kawasaki Eliminator was the direct competitor to the Magna

>>16913724
Im sure the oiling issue isnt too bad, may e ill look for a eliminator too.

Vmax sounds like a deathmachine, old turbocharged vehicles scare me.

uh, sure

>>16913770
Vmax isn't turbocharged...

>>16913737
too convenient to talk about "the brand" now that people found out what he did. Fuck him and his brand and everyone that has anything to do with him. hope he dies in jail

>>16913782
Forgive me, I know nothing about the VMax, can anyone explain the huge air intakes pls?

>>16913806
They're just stylized ram air intakes

what race should i watch

>>16913825
A bit. Unlike cars though, I think it's okay for a bike but to be gorgeous. A bike is just inherently cool

>>16913835
You gonna stream them all season right?

>>16913835
stoner vs rossi at leguan seca. Youll have too google it.

Catalunya 2009. HOLY SHIT that race will shake your tits off. Don't google it first.

Seems like the oil issues were solved in the Magna 1994 and after.

How do similar bikes of the period stack up?

Possibly due to desmodromic, rather than hydraulic, valves.

Less valve float above 11-12k RPM, at least in theory.

2015 Phillip Island Australia.

Even people I know who aren't into motorsports were fixed by it. Amazing pace, constant tension, didn't know who would would until last .3 seconds.

Don't look away for a moment, or you'll miss something (like a seagull exploding when it impacts Dovioso's helmet). :)

Yesterday he was talking about doing it on the stock SM tires kek

>>16913989
Thanks, dude! This is my 2014 right before I put it away for the year.

Alaska, so riding season is short. Glorious, since it never gets warmer than 75 F degrees, and teh sun never sets in the summer, but short.

>>16914016
Post now pictures of it, nice bike.

>>16914013
Unless it's mud or sand I'd be willing to bet SM wheels would do just fine on anything you guys can get those beasts over.

>>16914005
Honestly considering getting smaller street type pegs for my Husky for when I'm not in adv mode. Big ass motherfuckers are kind of annoying for the toogay.

which of the the vintage Honda/Kawasaki/Yamaha/Suzuki 2/3/4 cylinders from the CC range of 550-1100 are the best. I recently learned to ride on a Kawasaki kz650 and after i take the MSF and get my license i intend to buy one of the previously mentioned bikes.

here is a sweet xs650 i found for an example

How the fuck do you do a wheelie on a Harley, I can't grasp the concept, I just feel like there's never enough power?

I keep seeing people do it and I'm confused, maybe the people aren't on stock bikes?

Because you're not a feeble old man that can't take some wind on his neck.

I toured on my fz6 with the stock screen just fine.
