Re: Hello

So I've got first service (1000km) behind me. Quite expensive with valves clearance check... :(

And I have new tires mounted. :D

VERY first impression: How the heck did they make tires from glue ?!? :o And those are 4-season tires NOT winter ones. :roll:

Pants for well built men...

Hello, I'm looking for pants with protectors, water/windproof possibly with some warm, removable interior. BUT there is a problem. So far I tried many of them and all brands think, that motorcycle riders are tall and slim. Very slim. 4XL size is too small in waist and much too long for legs o_O . BU...

Re: Hello

Buzzer for turn signal. I did forget about indicators few times. I have to switch over from Kymco, where indicators relay was making quite loud ticking sound.
First refueling behind me. 2.22 l/100km . It's OK for the first few kilometers and 817km on the odometer. I need to get used to new machine.

Re: Idling Stop

I have always been told starting an engine has the most effect on wear. I think it's only cold start. And perhaps after long stop, when oil is cooled down and it's all in the sump. Though hot oils will build up pressure faster than cold one. So I would not worry about that. It's not a new feature i...

Re: Hello

Yes, I have pinlock and helmet visor doesn't get fogged, but my glasses are ! :(

Anyway, I need mirror extenders to see what's right behind me. Question: one extender will suffice BUT is it going to cause problems with asymmetric airflow and drag ?

Re: Upgrading the rear wheel to a thicker tire?

Consider this: best grip on dry You will get with slick tires. :) So the more grooves you have the less grip on dry, BUT better grip on wet or dirt. Any winter tire will be worse on dry than summer tire (in my opinion only !) . Maybe not much but still worse and you need to adjust your driving style...
