Are you buying new? Or beholden to your local used market? How about a klx230 or a xt250. But I also support an e-bike, like a rad power wagon or something. Just don’t go down big hills with stock brakes. Russian Bear fucked around with this message at 07:30 on Feb 13, 2023 |

See if your Honda dealer has any of the new Navis there as well.

I think this is a stat i saw on google, but I bet because of how they measured this, it's under reported. Russian Bear fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Feb 15, 2023 |

My psi refuses to go down even when I have abandoned my bike for an entire month. Something about the Rosso 3s maybe.

You will love the angel gts if you’re looking for a tippier tire. In fact any sporty pirelli. Putting on the rosso 3s changed my MT03 considerably (to be more fun).

FBS posted:How functional do y'all suppose Apple's Crash Detection works in a street bike context? https://www.specialized.com/ch/en/stories/angi I ride with this sensor from specialized stuck onto the back of my motorcycle helmet. Funny enough I don’t have it on my bicycle helmets. Gives my wife some piece of mind while I’m out brapping around. It uses an accelerometer to detect crashes. There is even a test mode in the app to try it out if you want to toss/shake your helmet violently. If it detects a crash, you have a 15-90 seconds (you can set this) to disable the alarm before it sends your coordinates to your specified contact via text or email. You download a free app and you hit go before your ride, there is an option to gps record the ride if you want.

I had to do the screw driver through the filter after I let someone else change my oil the very first time. Never again.

I’m currently chalking this up to not riding in a few weeks… but still worth asking. You know the buzzy hands feeling you get after a ride sometimes? Would anything mechanically wrong make buzzing worse (loose handlebars etc)? I usually get this after 3+ hours of riding especially at 60mph+, but today I was only out for half that (1.5 hours) and had that sensation after. 20 min of this was even just parking lot drills.

Ok I’ll check some of the obvious bolts up front but it’s likely nothing. Maybe just stayed really on the boil today, got pretty lucky with traffic in the twisties. It doesn’t bother me from the discomfort perspective enough to do anything, just wanted to make sure there wasn’t a safety thing I might be overlooking.

Toe Rag posted:Snell has a table with all the helmets, sizes, and certifications. You can read the M2020 and M2015 standards. Just a quick skimming seems like the testing is the same for full and open face helmets, with the only difference being they don't do visor or chin bar tests on an open face helmet. It seems like they have been doing open face helmets for at least 10 years, which seems odd to me! Maybe it makes sense in a car but definitely not a bike. Given the context, if he's still even considering an open face helmet I'm not sure what you can do to convince him otherwise. The only helmet I know of for sale in the US that is both Snell and ECE 22.06 is the Shoei X-15, which is probably not his style or price range. The new contour (quantic in EU) from Arai seems to also be both snell and ece 22.06.

Thanks for the breakdown. Haha it’s maddening. I’ll probably just get an RF1400 anyway next year.

I changed my oil recently on the MT03. Manual says it takes a 2.1L including the oil filter. I put in ~1.9L (changed filter of course) and the sight glass has it coming up to almost the top oil line. I tried the stand several different spots to make sure i wasn't on tilted ground. Going with the measurement you can actually see in the sight glass is the way to go right? Instead of trusting that Mobil 1 filled the quarts exactly - although weird for them to overfill. I guess the other factor could be the K&N filters are slightly smaller than the Yamaha ones?

Yeah I took it out for an hour ride after the oil change and it is still looking good on the sight glass so I’ll just stop overthinking it.

I see where you’re confused, that’s not actually an electrical diagram, that’s a map to the dealership.

Navi is a great option. Also what about just a bicycle for getting to work? 2 miles is perfect distance for that, get an ebike if you want to make it even more fun.
