      It usually happen when you never change your brake fluid. It's boiling temp decrease when it absorb more water. So older water logged brake fluid boil easier

    I had to lower my bike because I'm small. This includes lowering the front too.
    Thanks to upside-down forks it doesn't change how they work and doesn't limit travel.
    Sure you need to setup your suspension completely new for the new ride height but I don't feel a diffence at all. The only difference is that I stopped dropping my bike because my feet reach the ground now.

    When strapping motorcycles with radially mounted brake calipers, just strap through the radial caliper mounts, and strap from the swing arm or rear wheel for the back half, then you don't need to compress or worry about the suspension at all.

    11:00 most likely wouldn't need to rebuild the engine; people race snowmobiles on water (watercross) and sink them all the time. They have a killswitch on a cord (like in the video) and a buoy that releases when it sinks to indicate the location, then they just pull it up and to the ground, drain the engine and it's running within 30min for the next race.

    "Plus it's just my rear brake foot" I had to make a clip just because of that lol, because it encapsulates how I feel right now.
    The TL;DR is that I was in a motorcycle accident from a (suspected to be drunk) pickup truck hitting me. I have a metal rod where my tibia and fibia (shin bones) once existed that connects my knee to my ankle, and have had 9 surgeries and more expected. It's been 24 days in the hospital now undergoing surgeries to keep my leg, but I cannot bend my ankle and can kind of wiggle my toes.
    Point being? At least it's not the gear shifter foot. If I keep my leg, I plan to put my rear brake on my handlebar. If I lose the leg.. well, I'll be looking to buy a Volvo, since falling down or crashing with a fake leg would mean I'd potentially have to get a replacement leg if the original gets damaged.

    You are incorrect about the brake fluid boiling, It indeed can. Had the freshly flushed front brake on my KLR drag just enough to heat up to the fluid boiling point which caused the front brake to clamp down. Had to open the bleeder and vent the steam/boiling fluid to get the caliper to release so I could get it off the road.

    Hey, I always wondered: why don't you go off road if your wheels aren't spoked? ...spoken? Bespoke?
    And also to take a swing the question in the video: every single person, I reckon. Every typical person on the planet puts their hand down when falling. A reflex we've had since we first encountered gravity as a species. All but involuntary. Even while you're thinking about not putting your hand out, you'll put your hand out. Even if you're bracing your fall into a pit of lava, you'll put your hand out to the lava. If the floor was all knives, so on and so forth...

    The motorcycle videos on Instagram are worse. Just a bunch of dudes with clips of them riding their bikes really fast (and crashing) with text like "Never let him go riding after an argument 😢" and "when she doesn't reply😢💅" and the motorcycle saying to the guy "I will take away your depression but in return you might not make it home". And everyone's in the comments saying that they want to die.
    Such is the state of young men these days

    Every vid on that service, has the same vibe... It's a modern Vine, essentially.

    the electronic suspension is bullshit, there is no difference between a manually adjustable fork or an electronic exept for a solenoid adjusting the valves instead a little knob and a sensor

    I've literally seen brakes boil multiple times. Your wrong. I've seen track bikes do it, and I've seen the nut on the adjuster come loose and tighten ever time you hit the brakes.

    I think the point of the rizomas or however you spell that is for legality reasons, gives it a bit more style and if you get pulled over cuz no mirrors, boom mirrors, but someone correct me if I'm wrong

      It's a fad to make your bike look like a GP bike. Absolute gimmick and I can't take people seriously when they buy them, Ruroc helmets too. All style, but if you had any bother to research the products that you buy instead of falling for the marketing ploys of flashy things, the world would be a better place.
