I'd replace the clutch cable with a MotionPro teflon-coated item, and put in an aftermarket set of plates and springs since it's a maintenance item anyway. You'll need a better clutch when you add a big bore kit and higher compression, not to mention once you upgrade to a Stage II ported head and aggressive cams. Reverse is unnecessary.

Sweet. FYI the LC1 will log to a laptop through a serial cable, never tried it... When I adjusted my bike I'm not sure I gained power, but when I leaned out the needle relative to the main I was pretty happy with the change power delivery as I twisted the throttle. Maybe I got less power at middle throttle openings, but having acceleration ramp up as you approach WOT is nice. That was on my CV anyway.

Dining from the top of the food chain is never a good idea. A list is here: http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_factsheet.aspx Watch "End of the Line" on Netflix to get a sense of the scale of the problem (no pun intended).

I can't decide whether my next cosmetic upgrade for my KLR is going to be a METAL BUTTON which is a black button covered by an interlock that switches on handlebar speakers that are connected to an always-on MP3 player with a playlist of BLACK METAL. Pressing the black button presses play on the MP3 player, which shuffles in a random track of punishing grimness...or just rig up the godfather horn.

Maybe you shouldn't have spent those first few miles with the front wheel in the air.

Looks like the passenger seat of a compact car. If it were a motorcycle, I'd expect a truck to be involved.

quote:The game's levels are fairly linear in nature and incorporate several horror elements, the most prominent of which is darkness. This design choice is not only intended to foster feelings of apprehension and fear within the player, but also to create a more threatening game environment in which the player is less likely to see attacking enemies. This aspect is further enhanced by the fact that the player must choose between holding a weapon and holding the flashlight, forcing the player to choose between being able to see and having a readied weapon upon entering a room, which consequently leads to a more deliberate pace for the player. In addition, the levels are regularly strewn with corpses, dismembered body parts and blood, sometimes used in conjunction with the game's lighting to disorient the player.

The turn in question: The vehicle in question: http://www.walmart.com/ip/20-Impakt-Sidehack-BMX-Bicycle/12554957  First time around (actually) was Z3n inexplicably wearing out his shoe trying to slow the sidecar wheel while I coasted down the hill and toward the turn at a leisurely pace. Second time was Z3n saying "let's see how fast this thing can take that turn" and me saying OKAY! and cranking from the top of the hill, then discovering that the brakes are not only weak but indeed totally ineffective at higher speeds, and not suitable for slowing our combined weight down to a sane corner entry speed. Something about the pesky exponent in E=M*V^2 I guess? This led to a rapid evaluation of the remaining slope (not promising) and a reevaluation of the upcoming turn (more promising). Amazing how it changes when you look at things in context. I put the rig on a wide, expanding radius arc through the turn and let it all hang out. Z3n did a monster job of getting his weight to the inside. "Trust the pilot. Respect the monkey." MotoMind fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Feb 16, 2012 |

Bucephalus posted:I'll be generous and give 3 weeks until it's motorized. A battery pack under the sidecar platform and a rear hub motor would be pretty sick, and help solve the problem of having to push it up hills as well as reduce its tendency to fly the car at the slightest right hand turn. Functional brakes are a priority though.

You are the most infuriating motorcyclist ever. I swear to god, when will you get yourself something so prosaically practical that you will have no compulsion whatsoever to take it apart, improve it, part it out, or otherwise diminish its function as a motorcycle? A PC800, perchance?
