I think that's a backronym. Couple of US marines told me about that one, bit of an argument about whether it was person other than grunt, piece of garbage, etc.

Okay /dbt/. I want to turn my SV into a cafe-racer style bike.

I would put black racing stripes down the middle, put a ducati SS style fairing on the front, and reupholster the seats in brown leather with a targa for the pillon. Possibly wire wheels, but thats much later.

Am I autistic?

because cars need to meet safety standards and doing so effects the outside design, you can't do that to a bike because no matter what you do to the body the rider flying into a ped at 100 mph is still going to fuck you both up

Got a great deal on sum pads. The downside was you only get to brake hard once per 20 minutes because of the worst brake fade on motorcycle brakes since 1912.

I have a DL-1000, it will be hard as a first bike.

Engine breaking will fuck you up, I went from a KLR650 it this and it is a big difference. Power wheelies will only happen in first outside of the you will have to clutch it. It is heavy and tall, so if you aren`t used to bikes you may drop it.

On dropping it, big bikes cost big bucks. Services are expensive for me as I am jobless. You might have more luck in that area though.

All in all, great bike. Might be a bit strong for a beginner and you might regret it if you drop it or slide out on a turn because of engine breaking

How do you like the DL vs the KLR? I got the latter now as my first bike and its underwhelming power and brakes are making me consider a DL650.

Is the DL good with popping curbs and hitting speed bumps? I don't off road nearly as much as I thought I would but bouncing over shit and through jeep trails is like my favorite thing.

DL650 is a V-Twin with double the power.

The 1000 is a rocket ship next to my old KLR650. The brakes aren`t the bad because it is so slow. The DL650 tops out at 180kph where as the KLD is 160kph. I got the KLR because is the most reliable bike I have ever ridden.

The DL-1000 is 100% for road work, not great for off road, much like all ADV, as it is so heavy. But if you want off road get an off road. The DL is a comfy bike that can do all things but is beaten by specialized bikes; Sports are faster, Duel Sports better off road. Nothing beats the seating and speed in a single package though.

Yeah I just want a multipurpose motorcycle. The KLR is exactly that except it can't wheelie unless you flog the shit out of it on an almost empty tank and it gets outaccelerated by fat ass trucks and v6 family sedans. It humilates itself by vibrating like crazy and making a lot of noise as said family sedan quietly and steadily pulls past it.

Other than that its perfect and does everything I want a motorcycle to do. If they stuck a smooth V twin in a KLR I'd be set.

Looking at DLs since while european shit like the Husky 650 performs well they are expensive and/or unreliable.

Put burner fuel oil (It's like green and light) in my bike and primed it a bunch of times after getting a new gas tank paint job (all other plastics too) because I picked up a gas tank that was full and unlabeled (assumed it was gas)

I only


2000 cbr 929rr. How fucked am I? I cycled through it with premium and let it burn out and it idled really rough and smoked for a while. I let it run and it seemed to clear up a bit but now there seems to be weirdness when I rev it. The idle is adjusted to spec at 1200rpm.

Basically when I rev it now skips around and doesn't like being held around 2500rpm. Haven't ridden her yet think it'll clear up?

It sat for 4 months dry fyi

You need to get all of that shit out of your tank. The best way to do that is drop a couple handfuls of really fine sand (REALLY fine like flour, I guess you can try using actual flour too; not too grainy cause you don't want to fuck up the tank or the lines) in the tank, then run it for a couple minutes at max revs to cycle that shit through the system. The flour or sand will basically bind all the old fuel and be transported out the exhaust and leave the system squeaky clean. Then just top it up with premium and you're good to go.

Drain the fuel system COMPLETELY (as in pull the fuel tank and pour out the contents) and inspect your spark plugs for fouling, then NEVER just blindly do shit without consulting competent humans.

Is there a special reason you didn't ASK before doing what you did? When I don't KNOW, I FIND OUT.

Assumption is the mother of all fuckups.

If it were mine I'd install new plugs since I'd have gone to the bother of removing the installed plugs to check for fouling.

the GS is pretty hearty for starting, put on the choke, push the button and it should start right up. when the engine starts to rev high step the choke back until it's idling by itself.

I have to admit, I just had someone else rebuild the carbs, I don't have the space or tools to do it myself. You shouldn't have to worry unless there is something obviously wrong with the way the bike is running. Just try to make sure the seller starts it from cold.

Looks good and if jetting is stock (typical EPA-induced cold natured starts) you can drill the low speed jets one numbered drill size above the SHANK size (not the fluted end of the bit) which fits in the jet. I keep a set of #60 thru #80 size bits for the purpose. Remove jets to drill and drill by holding bit in visegrip then rotating jet between thumb and forefinger. Once through, stroke up and down a couple of times to debur and you're done.

It's funny because I have no damage to control. American crime rates are higher, American violence rates are higher, American rape rates are higher, American homicide rates are higher.

Get a manual, watch videos and visit MODEL SPECIFIC forums.

Google "GS 500 forum" .

If it starts clean from cold with enricher on I wouldn't worry. You can fuck with the carbs later. Do not try to figure carbs out yourself without some basic research which is easy to do. I've trained many technicians and assumption is the mother of all fuckups. The only dumb question is one you don't ask, and parts are plentiful and cheap. It's a good machine to learn on.

http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/forumdisplay.php?131-Carb-Fuel-Exhaust&s=09f46c0956da90d571351b30e10c0b94

There are a couple of Jewtoob vidyas but I haven't seen them since I can clean carbs in my sleep after doing so many.

No one fell out of Mom's cunt with a wrench in their hand. Do it, faggot, and minor mistakes are part of learning. You can dry your tears and buy nice tools with the gobs of money you save.

Ooooh, 85 mph, that's what, like 140 km/h?
Wow, I bet you're a big boy on a real big bike huh? Be careful, you might feel some wind flapping your fat flaps if you go any faster. Bet that Busa has to struggle quite a bit trying to haul your fat ass to that speed.
Meanwhile even a shitty GS 500 can go 180 km/h (that's 100+ burgers per hour), and does so in Germany, the land of unlimited speed.

>American crime rates are higher, American violence rates are higher, American rape rates are higher, American homicide rates are higher.

The same tired old argument.

American rates are higher on average because of shithole inner cities with astronomical crime rates.

The vast majority of the country has lower crime than Austrailia or any country in eurocuckistan.

High crime inner cities are only an issue if you are poor and melanin enriched. The rest of the country is a fucking paradise compared to the shithole that is Europe.
>>
>>17108442
We are diverse and lively society in the US. Without our cherished ethnic segments of society our rate of violence would be similar to Finland. Ive lived in Europe and never once felt I needed I gun, but that might change in the next 10-20 years as Europe becomes ever more ethnically enriched.

Guns as a hobby is slightly autistic but as tools they are needed if you value your own life.

You do realize that the crime rates in ANY country are higher in the inner cities, right? And that even inner cities in Europe are safer than your mid-sized cities? Plus, if 80% of your population lives in said high-crime areas, the fact that the rest of the country has a lower crime rate hardly matters to that majority of the population.
Have you ever been to Europe?

My wife deterred some crackheads who were hassling her on my rural property with our Mini 14. The cops took more than a half hour to arrive. She didn't need to shoot them, they got the point.

Americans don't mind applying violence to white trash, niggers and other lower life forms where necessary. We are good, they are bad, we should live and they should die. End of story.

The US is quite comfy if you aren't a piece of shit. Crime rates are delightfully low if you don't live around too many goblins, but best to be prepared so many of us are.

Have some perspective from a successful Korean immigrant:

Single states in the U.S. are in line and surpass entire countries in the EU in terms of population, economic strength, and land area. Comparing the entire country to single countries in the EU isnt an apples to apples comparison.

California's economy is larger than the entirety of Australia.

Additionally American culture is such that socialist bullshit is dispised. People dont want to pay for poverty stricken individuals to live off the system. The U.S. thus has lower taxes than the majority of Europe and Austrailia.

The United States was founded on principals of self sufficiency and individual responsibility.

Its the shit tier bleeding heart socialist ideas from Europe that are turning this country to garbage. But it's not already garbage like the vast majority of Europe already is.

Shotguns are fun. Get a pump action 12ga, good ones can be had for under $400. All purpose weapons inside 20 meters or so. Skeet, trap, birdshot and clays are dirt cheap. 00 buck is like a 9 round burst from an smg, slugs like a really inaccurate 30-06.

Really all you need unless the target is beyond 50-100 yards.

I dont think so, the biggest upsides of 2 strokes are light weight and power
maintenance is harder on a 4 stroke but less of it is required and it's much more practical

He can ride from the start if it lights off fine, and if you wait "weeks" for fucking GS 500 parts you may doing something very wrong. I part-time at an independent shop where we order online, often from Ebay sellers since we do vintage Britbikes and Jap machines. It's so fast it's not worth making up an order for a wholesaler to get the tiny dealer discount.

Many dealerships have online ordering with exploded component views, and you can use those views to supplement your manual.

Yes and I enjoyed it greatly. I did two years at Sembach near Ramstein. Good times and I'd love to see the Autobahn concept come to the US. I wouldn't care to see the restrictions on vehicle modifications here though.

>>17108592
>i dread doing 16 shimmed valves for the first time

Most valve clearance inspections on shim and bucket systems are easy, and modern four strokes don't require them often because valves don't recede into their seats much anymore due to better metallurgy.

Just follow your manual and take your time. I check with feeler gauges using the go/no-go method. First one that fits after those that are too thick is your clearance.

Where it's a hassle to reach you can use long feeler gauges or take the strips of metal out of a folding set then hold them with something suitable like long duckbill or safety wire pliers (which lock which is handy).

Don't be intimidated by valve adjustments. You'll do fine.

For bikers in isolated areas but who have access to a machine shop, you can properly thin valve shims using a surface grinder.
>>

Two strokes are used because you get better power to the weight.
>>
>>17108738
>Why mostly chainsaws and mowers and not shit used very often are two stroke.

Chainsaws are usually two-stroke because they can run in any position (chainsaw carbs are diaphraghm type) and because it saves weight.

Hotrodding chainsaws by porting and bore kits is popular too.
