** KNEE DRAGGERS UNITE ** PART X - Carbon Wings and the Motul Man

[The_Trooper]

Not if the other parties insurance pays for it.
Then you can just make up **** like "yeah I had Pazzo levers but they both snapped off"

carbon fiber everything with shock tuned = max gainage

I would rather get taken out by Kangaroo Jack than Rocket the Raccoon while on my bike.

Wood make awesome story/10

RIP Raccoon and underbelly plastics from S1K. was in a curve, glad i missed him with the front wheel at least and kept it upright. immediately home to change shorts.

[occy27]

don't think you yanks understand how ****ed driving/riding with our wildlife is
roos are by far the worst, echidnas are sneaky little kunts too
emus are cheeky because they chase you

though you guys probably have deers and serial killers to look out for

can't imagine a kangaroo jumping in front of us, but deer can't be much better. They're thick as hell, especially in the fall rut season, plus they're stupid and just stand there half the time. they're the main reason i put the thermal vision on the vehicles. saw 5 fresh dead deer and one raccoon on the way to the rock Sunday an hour away. already hit the raccoon with the bike and tapped a deer with the GTO.

serial killers i don't worry about. I'm generally carrying, plus confrontation crimes are lower in TX cuz everyone has guns. they go operate in gun-free 'safe' zones instead.

[occy27]

yeah roos are probably similar to deers. problem with roos though is they are everywhere, even in built up and suburban areas.
when i had a my ute i knocked out a couple fog lights on rabbits, heaps in my street.

idiot friend tried to kick a dead roo in the head once and cover his boot, leg and bike in blood haha
it stunk all weekend too.

dad hit a turtle and some kind of bird once, feathers everywhere.

dead animal smell not good. really not good.

dad had a pheasant go through the grill of his car years ago. i told him he should try cars vs. shotguns for hunting them, might have better chances.

i have no idea, so i'll ask, but can you hunt roo's if they're that overpopulated? never been to your part of the world, so completely ignorant on your laws over there. here if there's too may of something, they open season on them to try to get the population down a little. coyotes don't even require a license up north i don't think.

i don't hunt, only ever shot **** on private property

wheres witblitz the *******
you watching the series? going on friday gonna be an awesome finish

[Nightshiftbrah]

since you mention the s1000, are you talking about clutchless with shift assist or just straight up ramming gears? took me a long time to get used to not using the clutch on my s1k even with shift assist, just seemed abusive like some girl telling you to choke her. now that i'm used to it, it's pretty slick.

without shift assist, why would you ever do that? i have on the harleys before after snapping clutch cables and sometimes just because, but they were sloppier. not sure you could do that on a sport bike. theoretically if you matched revs perfectly, no risk, but have to be dang careful about it to avoid damage. a buddy of mine will do what you say for faster shifts, but still hits the clutch.

Without quick shifter. Friend of mine races(semi pro) , been riding for years ect. Says be clutch less shifts 80% of time and never had an issue or heard of anyone having an issue.

Under load it is a lot smoother and faster clutchless but still iffy on if it's doing damage or not.

[occy27]

but still iffy on if it's doing damage or not.

If it was significant there would be tonne of proof and so many people against it, which doesnt seem to be the case.
Another thing to note is clutch plates cost fuk all (in the scheme of things) and even a basket is pretty inexpensive but I'm sure anyone with half a brain would notice damage before they grind out the basket.

I never understood the people the fret about wearing out their clutches. Especially when they're willing to spend $60-$70 on oil.

That's my logic behind it. Coming from building race cars bikes are dirt cheap anyway

guys in the shop next to my old chopper shop raced Saab's. was nothing to them to grenade an engine racing, then rebuild it again for the 100th time after the race. don't think i'd have the patience for that.

[PHARMDEEZ]

Those cheeky kunts, like wtf is this? It's like they have a 3rd leg so they can stab you with those sharp ass claws.

[pwoL]

Local dealership just got a couple brand new 2012 r1s from yamaha.... they're selling them for $9,999.

hmmmmmm

[witblitz550]

Only been stung by bees when on the bike crew. Had close calls with cape cobras before.

I have only hit one animal in my life and that was on my bicycle. Road right over the cat on my way to primary school.

I rate you guys will win on friday. Enjoy the game. waiting for the local pro 20 series to start so that I can watch an evening game live again.

Do you get Rekluse clutches for superbikes?

I am off to go braai some steaks now. Cheers kunts

[CherryPopinski]

What did you scratch a plastic? lol idk why anyone would report **** on their bike if it was a value like that... insurance premuims brb skyrocketing yo

Nah I went to the hospital and they charged me for something my insurance should have taken care of.

Das it mane. Similar happened to me when I broke my wrist. Said my insurance wasn't instated yet (1200 hours of work needed before full coverage), but I exceeded the hours needed. Brb 3400 out of pocket to fix a wrist. Brb got 3400 back. God damn I was broke for a while. 3400 cash taken away, no work for 7 weeks...fuuuark.

New R1 with track bodywork...

[iDontExistHere]

New R1 with track bodywork...

So much carbon fiber.
Wish I could afford

Got around to putting my stator cover on today. Looks so MUCH BETTER without rash


If its one thing I can say now is.....INVEST IN SLIDERS . ALL TYPES!

FRAME SLIDERS
CLUTCH COVER SLIDERS
STATOR COVER SLIDERS
REAR SPOOL SLIDERS
BAR END SLIDERS
ECT.


Went down at like 15mph & ended up with a chit load of repairs lol

[LargeWill]

I had 3 consecutive summers where I broke my arm or wrist growing up. Can't even imagine what that must have cost my family or insurance now that I think about it. Plus surgeries and everything. I'll ask them about it over Thanksgiving.

Hope everyone is enjoying this polar vortex! Sadly not riding here.

[6-SPEED]

It's riding weather here in TX... 67 degrees today.

[Dan_Staat]

Just looped the gas gas 300 I sold to my coworker. Forgot 2 strokes lack engine braking. Flipped it in his back yard, no injuries to me. Snapped the rear fender. Woopz.

Might as well spend the time wrenching to save you the time from replacing plastics. Not like you're too worried about it riding all highway.
