It is very bad. Fun bike, but the vibes are seriously insane.

Knee armor is also oftentimes adjustable.

hatbadger posted:So I've done a bit of research based off some of the advice over the last few days, but I still can't figure it out. If I want a step down from mx boots am I looking at adventure or racing boots? I'd all but decided on the Sidi Adventure before I questioned the protection levels of racing boots. I'd run a set of Forma Terrain TXs.

spouse posted:So, a big thanks to everyone in this and all the threads here. I just officially hit one month of having my own bike, 1st month of riding, 1700~ miles in, and only one drop (lost the front wheel pulling into a gravel driveway too fast), and one already lost license plate (motorcycles vibrate a lot more than I thought they would and threadlocker is your friend). The most dangerous point is in 1-2 years, cause you've got enough skill to ride the bike fast but not enough to not do things that suddenly and dramatically exceed the limits of traction. Sounds like you might hit that point before 1-2 years, but you should still be cautious of it. Try and find a flat track or offroad school to play with if you want to see how the bike feels sliding around.

Now to tempt myself daily browsing cycletrader, and try as best I can not to trade up to a poor lesson in risk management.

Grind down the heads on the rivets on your chain and they should never break the chain press tool. I've had a cheap stockton tool chain press / riveter and for probably 5 years a now and at least a couple dozen chains, and it's never even stressed the tool in the slightest. a cute sea otter posted:Yeah, I was looking for a rivet, too, but didn't see one. I'll look more closlier, but it is probably factory. I'm moving out of the UK in a few months and selling off everything, so I'd rather not go out and buy another £50 tool. Reckon a shop can do it quickly for £10 if I give them the right link? Just pay the shop to do it if you're not gonna buy the tools, it's sort of a pain in the rear end if you don't have the ability to break the chain after breaking the front sprocket loose.

mewse posted:It’s like DRM but on motorcycles *starts writing a patent* Yeah this is absolutely correct. They don't flash them until they're sold, it starts the warranty process, does a bunch of other poo poo too. But it should never be a problem unless your dealership is stocked my morons so it's a constant problem.
