Does anyone make modern electronic gauges that fit in the round gauge buckets of old bikes? I’m going to be getting my 75 Kawi F11 back on the road over the winter and both the tach and speedo are completely shot internally. I can buy used ones on eBay but they’ll probably just die too, plus I’d rather not mess with getting new drive cables and all that. So this has me looking for modern gauges that look vintage enough that they won’t be wildly out of place on a 75 enduro like a trail tech vapor would be

I revel in the schadenfreude of people who paid 6 figures for a dogshit bike being forced to unload them for $0.50 on the dollar or less and still not selling them.

Assuming it gets used for its implied purpose, I think its pretty cool. Bespoke thing-haulers are always neat to me

Nerobro posted:You're also describing every self proclaimed "cafe racer". You’re both describing things that are built by people who are not fabricators, welders and machinists by trade. Doesn’t matter the type of bike, if the person working on it doesn’t have the skill set to achieve a high standard of accuracy, precision, and ultimately, quality, the end result will be what you’re describing.

As some of you may remember, I broke my foot a couple months ago dragging pegs on the goldwing with no toe sliders, so Santa brought me a pair of Alpinestars SMX 1-R’s, which should, HOPEFULLY, prevent the same thing from happening again

His legs definitely got hit hard by the tank and/or triples. Hard enough to flip him around. I’m guessing he didn’t snap his femur, but he’s feeling that in his legs tomorrow

I financed a bike as soon as I got out of college and got my first Big Boy™️ job. Never again. I hated instantly being upside down on the loan the second I rode the bike home. It made me not want to ride.

As someone who grew up the way you described, those terrible rat bikes that tried to kill me, barely ran, and were anything but nice are some of my favorite bikes to look back on today. My complete shitbox XL250 that I bought for $20 and a case of beer carried me to work every morning at 4am to my terrible Helpdesk job after college. The ride to and from work was the highlight of my day. I rode dirty for a while because I literally couldn’t afford to get it titled. That cheap lovely bike was hugely important to me What I’m saying I guess is different strokes and all, and I think the moral of the story is everyone loves their bikes regardless of the period of their life they’re in.

You stand to do more damage than anything by washing the inside of them I’d imagine I mean, clean the carbon out of the tip if you want but other than that I’d not do anything with them

Like, what’s their plan if you were actually to hit their door? You’re gonna ruin their door, they’re gonna gently caress up your bike, you’re probably going to get pushed into the car next to you, so now there’s collateral damage. Literal toddler brain poo poo.

I think clutches make a lot of sense on electric dirt bikes. There is so much to riding a dirt bike that is helped by the ability to use a clutch. For example, this electric trials bike: https://www.tiktok.com/embed/7345949216390319392
