forgot to mention i had street tires on at the moment, not like that really bothers though im just looking for excuses

Need some help with starter issues

At least I think it's the starter, I have no idea

Last week, I was riding around and stopped at my house for a couple minutes. When I went out to get back on my bike it wouldn't start. All that'd happen when I clicked the start button was a single click would come from the starter relay and that's it. The next day I went to take the bike apart but tried starting it first and it ended up starting up immrfiatekt

Then it ran just fine for a week.

Last night I went riding and stopped somewhere. When I went back to my motorcycle, it wouldn't start again. Same exact problem. I let it sit for like an hour and a half and now it's turning over. It doesn't start, it sounds like the battery is dying, but it's at least trying to start. I checked the battery and it only has 11.75 volts so I'm guessing that's why it's not starting all the way, but that doesn't explain why it wouldn't do anything just a couple hours ago

Does anyone know what the fuck is going on?

early for gofundme for my bike soon tm

Good knobbies really help, and so does a bike that's not 400lbs.
Also try to weight the rear more when ascending hills. Either stand up and lean back or scoot to the rear of the seat.

>any time I try to find a reference for how the fuck people corner on my bike it turns out they have clip-ons, rearsets, and exhaust that won't drag with rearsets
Maybe I should just accept my slow destiny

>>17335409
you got anything attached to the battery like heated grips or a 12v charger? with my bike the stator or some shit is weak as fuck so it drains the battery

>>17335419
lol iv ripped the klr with some some fat knobs (t63's) and ride slow as fuck. iv been thinking about getting a drz 400sm and just buying the s or e wheels

theres cornering and "cornering"

anyways you dont have ground clearance you cant corner hard, thats a given.

>>17335437
fucked his neck really good and got a tv contract.

>>17335460
It's more the set back to change the riding position than the height that counts with rearsets honestly, just that -any- rearset mod will raise the pegs enough to drag the stock exhaust first.

i think i will try to get a testride for this ASAP.

Best off-road bike? Is the Africa Twin a valid option?

>>17335478
to be honest id say the drz400, iv rode a klr 650 xr650 dr650 drz400 and africa twin all offroad and the drz just felt like it was in its place

>>17335473
your seating position doesnt change the ability to corner though, people corner hard on the Diavel and that's a feet-first configuration

Sup /dbt/, need yalls advice on something. This Ninja right here sat for 3-4 months. The first time I cranked it up, it started but it was running "weak." I revved it a few times and the engine cut out and wouldn't start again.

I went out and bought a fresh battery and was hoping it would start. No luck. It's revving and trying to turn over, but still won't start.

I'm going to try draining the fuel. Some water had seeped into the tank. Would you guys agree this is the next logical step?

>>17335556
You should have put new gas in to begin with.
But if it's not the battery, check fuel, air, spark.

>>17335554
Blue cruiser anon?
You don't have the parts yet?

>>17335562
The fact it started up initially would indicate that the spark plugs are fine, correct?

My friend is telling me it's most likely not the spark plugs. It only has 3000 miles. Changing them seems more difficult than draining the fuel.

>>17335556
Why are you posting this again without trying anything we recommended last time?

What difference does the Euro vs Us PCV maps? I had a euro map set for the stock bike on and switched to a US version for my pipe system and I've noticed my torque and power are lower now. Will switching back to the euro map hurt the bike? I'm using 93+ oct and I'm in Texas if that matters any. Still new to the power commander stuff

My 54 year old neighbor started on one a couple months ago.
>he's still alive, but I'm waiting for it to give him a heart attack.

>>17335631

Different rating methods, dipshit.

>>17335631
Different calculations for octane you ignorant fucktard.

>>17335631
US/EU measure Octane numbers differently. EU uses RON (?), US/Canada use AKI (Anti-Knock-Index). About 10 seconds of Google will find you a conversion chart. RON numbers are generally (always?) higher.

>>17335556

I'd say it sounds like bad fuel. Drain and fill with premium. Add some sea foam. You should probably check the air filter anyway just as good maintanence.

Also, could be a bad fuel pump. That would explain why it's not getting fuel. And, of course, don't forget to check the petcock. That would be embarrassing if you spent a week trying to fix it just to find out the fuel is shut off.

Battery is dead, nominal voltage is 12.6 volts. Either get a new battery or try charging that one up and see if it'll hold a charge again. I usually only get 2-3 years out of my motorcycle and ATV batteries before I have to replace them.

>>17335687
Do you need a battery for a motorcycle. Couldnt you just kickstart and let the alternator supply all power?

>>17335431
just skip the SM and get the S to start with.

>>17335679

If you had bothered to spend even 60 seconds reading about the way the ratings are performed, you would know how fucking stupid you sound right now.

>>17335685

I do feel like i need another biker in my life

>>17335711
Sure, you can kick or bump start the bike and it'll run without a battery. It would be hard on any electronics that the bike has (computer, fuel injection control module, electronic dash displays, etc) because the alternator produces voltage pulses/spikes that the battery usually helps modulate and smooth out. If your bike has carbs and analog gauges then it wouldn't matter.

Best touring bike?
I'm torn between a used goldwing and a used roadking. Love the vtwin sound but the Honda is tempting..

>>17335821
Gw is superior in every way

>>17335821
Sound is underrated but since its touring you want maximum comfort, but then again its not like you can take after market measures to ensure the vibrations on kick your arms and butt.

On the subject of motorcycle batteries, anyone using LI replacement batteries? Was looking for a new YB9-B and found LI replacements with a built in management module. They are 3x the price, but that is still only about $160, while never needing to be serviced, lasting longer, and being about 8 pounds lighter. Any good/bad experiences?

Gold Wing is, and has been, the best pure touring bike for decades. There are plenty of other decent touring bikes, but you asked what the best is.

Can't wait to put a windshield and cup holder on this thing.

You should try visiting the real Italia. It has been mid-70s and sunny all week in Naples. Stop wasting your time and money in the north.

>Can you attach chains to your bike like cars do for snow riding?

There are chains for dual sports and adventure bikes. But you don't need them actually, the roads were clear of snow. It was just freezing cold and a shitton of rain.

>If not how do you do it without crashing?

Generally speaking, if you're on a regular bike in the snow you're fucked. You can go very slow, but if you slip, there is no chance to catch her. So basically you avoid it.

Anon with the Ninja 300 here. I just changed the fuel out, got brand new premium in it.

Still won't start. What the fuck. I'm starting to get worried now. It initially started over the weekend, but the engine would cut out when revved.

New battery, new fuel, no start. Now, I siphoned the fuel out, and didn't check the fuel lines. Could there be moisture in the lines preventing it from starting? This is driving me nuts.

>>17335647
I'm guessing seafoam is engine cleaner? How crucial is it?

>>17336024
Additionally, I have a digital battery charger and it dipped all the way down to 12%. They charged the new battery yesterday at the shop. Is it draining abnormally fast?

>>17335687
I've only had the battery a few months though and this is the third one in a year

>>17336026
The pass leading there is pretty awesome too. It's near Bolzano.

>>17335955

Sea foam is the best cleaner/treatment/additive you can use.

It really sounds like the problem is that you aren't getting any fuel. It idled over the weekend with what was in the system and now that it's gone it isn't getting more.

Possible causes:
-clogged fuel line (probably unlikely)
-bad fuel pump (maybe)
-flown fuse for fuel pump (maybe, easy to fix)

Check that fuse first. If that is good, you'll have to disconnect a fuel line somewhere and see if fuel is actually being pumped when you crank it.

>>17336051
Sounds like you have a short circuit somewhere that's draining the battery and enough juice to prevent the engine from starting.

at the dmv. holy shit this is retarded.

I'm really wanting a bike this summer, I'm pretty much only looking at what look like Japanese dial sport bikes from 1971 to 1989 though, the older aesthetic is really pleasing to me.

>carries 200lb man at least to 65mph

>You can filter with it, it's thin.
But it doesn't have the turning radius you want while filtering.

I love lightweight low hp cars (i own an NA miata with a few simple mods)

And Im thinking about acquiring a bike.

I recently found out about the Honda NSR250

Would this be a decent starter bike? Also why are they so expensive? Are they that fun to ride around?

here are ones that I found that are somewhat close to me

Because they're imported race bikes that you can't buy parts for.

>Would this be a decent starter bike?

probably not

>Also why are they so expensive?

because they are pretty rare outside japan.

>Are they that fun to ride around?

probably a lot


its a classic 250 two-stroke racing replica, it makes a shitload of power for its weight and displacement due to that, there is a LOT of maintenance required to keep it running since its meant to be ridden hard.

its like getting something like a shelby cobra as a first car. You can do it but its not very smart.

you could get something like a zephyr or any other 90s "retro" bike.

you shouldnt underestimate how wobbly those old frames and suspension are and how bad the brakes.

>>17336387
That does look kinda cool, it might break the 1200 limit though, but I can save for a little more. Is it a given that an older bike, at some point, cannot be refurbished? Like I said, I'm not a total noob when it comes to rebuilding or even fabricating and welding, I'd just have to haul it to my dad's garage and work on it for a while, but it's not like I'm going to go to the junkyard and buy the first piece of scrap I see.

What else fits the 90s retro thing?

I primed the fuck out of it and pinned the throttle when I started it and it eventually came to life. I tell ya, these Jap bikes are nearly indestructible. Nearly four months of bad weather and it took just a little love to get it going.

>>17336412
you should be able to get an air-cooled 90s UJM for the same price or cheaper than a 70s/80s one but you will sink more money and time into the older one and get less favorable results.

Thats just how it is.


From the top of my head:

Honda has been putting out CBs since they started and they havent stopped to this day.

Kawasaki had the Zephyr, ZRX, W650

Yamaha has shit like the XJR

Suzuki had various GS bikes that fit the category.

Just got her running again after some nasty electrical problem which turned out to be an ECU that would only occasionally malfunction when warm. Took a fair bit of headscratching to figure that one out.

I got lucky, found one on a second hand website for 25 euros including shipping. Normally they go for like 70 at least.

Just about crashed last night doing a wheelie into a sharp corner.

Meant to just pop a quick one and rip through the corner but it felt real good so I kept it going longer than I should have. Was going way too fast, but managed to lean right the fuck over and get through it at like 120km/h in a 50 zone. Tires were in the gutter like 4 inches away from the curb.

Felt pretty good tbqh

>>17336602
Why do you corner without knowing whether there are cars coming towards you AND why did you come out of the corner so early?

>>17336705
What are they supposed to be for? Looks like they go into the fuel tank, but why??

>>17336024
Even with max choke?

>>17336889
I know there are no cars coming because I can see into the corner far enough. It is not very aparent on video, but you can easily see through the trees, and just a bit before the video starts can actually see the road further to the right.
Secondly, I came out of the corner early because the rear wheel lost traction because of sand, therefore had to close the throttle slowly such that the rear wheel regains traction, but which also causes the bike to stand up thus forcing me to the outside.
>>17336901
>What are they supposed to be for?
They end up on top of the crankcase cover, but in practice they really have no purpose. I think the cooling effect would be negligible.

>>17336901
>>17336932
But I should mention that the year after my model, they added airscoops that do actually do something as a ram air system.

>>17336901
>>17336932
Aren't they the air intakes?

Any suggestions on a good trip planning tool/app/website? Looking for something that lets you set things like your max speed, max distance between fuel and rest stops, etc. US midwest region if it matters.

hey intruder friend

>>17336937
They are, but they lead to the crankcase cover. Technically they could be considered for cooling, but I dont think they contribute anything significant to a liquid cooled bike. Also, the air doesnt reach the air intake for sure, which is somewhere under the seat.

I got hit by a pickup truck like a year ago and now I'm getting like $10,000 or something from a settlement. What bike related shit should I buy to alleviate all my awful pain and suffering

>>17336986
a bike

>>17335400
Not too bad. Bikes that heavy are a handfull. You did well. But, you fell for the 'dont go through the puddle' jew.

When everything is wet and slimey and you straddle puddles, the front end will want to squirm into the puddle potentially taking you down. On a lighter bike with better tires it's less of a problem. Try going straight through the puddle with some rear end biased authority and find your stability in the dry on the other side. With big bikes pretend your a jeep without traction, as opposed to a stadium truck. Chuggin and pluggin. As long as the puddle isn't too long or deep, this can be your best bet.

Go WOT because your harley can't really make enough power to keep itself at traffic speeds unless you do. Make sure if it overheats you slow down a bit, but don't stop otherwise it'll piss oil all over.

Cut off as many cars as possible. It's a well known fact that the more cars you cut off, the safer you are as they can't do anything once they're behind you. You're not gonna get merged into by a car behind you.

Also it's generally accepted that motorcycle riders on the highway try to give eachother a "what's up!" pat on the ass when passing by.

Buy one or two of the top Shoei, Arai, HJC, or AGV helmets, depending on what kind of riding you do and what bikes you have.

First replace your love of love live with fanboyism for idolmaster. Classic authentic japaenese pop culture improves riding skills by making you more japanese and therefore lighter, more aerodynamic, and more focused on the task at hand. Commercial seiyuu whoring with a terribad accessory anime decreases it by making you a generic fat tumblr weeb that can't corner without daydreaming about shipping biwheeldrive blinkerfluid nicos with manual transmission makis.

Second buy the rearsets and exhaust if it's cheaper than new bike + turnaround from selling your current one or more ideal because you can only have one bike and adjustable rearsets are the bomb for that, if not buy a sportier bike.

Third post bike, I want to see how many dumb anime stickers you have on it.

One, independent mechanics often do better work and warranty it all the same.

Three, your bike is fucking slow.
Four, i'd rather ladies get wet seeing me with my helmet and gear off, than seeing me with my helmet and gear on, so I take the money I saved on paying a grease monkey to fuck up my bike and then try to fix it three times under warranty and spend it on nicer clothes than a torn wifebeater and a nicer haircut than a mullet.

Your tastelessness makes me wish we weren't both middle class. If I were going to blow that much on a weekend toy I would supercharge a panigale.

But I won't because I'd rather save for retirement and maintain a better day to day image. Every dollar not spent on motorcycle excess is a dollar spent on making the rest of your life even better.

Yea you left out the part where a harley costs you 25k + 10k in interest and 2k in insurance and you still don't have fun.

Even if you don't race, harley is a bad buy unless you're REALLY into judas priest leather fetish stuff. Not every Japanese bike is dragging their knees, they might just want to ride relatively fast for less than 3 grand.

So metrics = SJWS

When I was a teenager my uncles built these bikes and I used to tool around in a little 70s dyna rat bike that I paid for by buying shit at swap meets. 15 years later I sit on Harleys and it's a la-z-boi with an engine, they suck dude, come on.

why not take out loans and then pay them off early to build your credit score?

eventually you can get rates so low you can invest what you ket by not buying outright and match or exceed the interest with the returns

There was water in the fuel line. I primed it the fuck out and shook it like a catfish. Then I pinned the throttle back and hit the ignition and it started coming to life.

The idea being is that you work in a shit hole for an assload and save and then work comfortably and minimally for the rest of your life.

Can someone explain to me the cultural reasons that North Americans feel they are required to nig their sport bikes out with black everything (except for rim tape that doesn't match the bike) and invisible turn signals?

Most people don't travel that far on their bikes here, whatever one should need for a day trip should fit in a back pack. The people that do, buy touring bikes.

And I'm not sure what you mean by "blacking" out everything other than shit bikes that have a ton of black spray paint on them to cover up lay downs.

Stretched swing arms are much more common and egregious mod for sport bikes over here.

Not one single motorcycle comes with a tinted screen stock you tard. They don't even make any sense.

It's like harley but their bikes actually look good and don't cost as much as top of the line sportbikes with twice the HP and five times the cornering clearance.

It's because real porn gets boring if you've been jerking to it since you were 13.

Even getting laid more regularly, 3d porn is always less attractive than 3d women in person, and nothing is the same as the animes. If I didn't have anime or pussy I would probably turn gay.
