      Damn dude.
      Hope you’re ok.
      I was on my motorcycle 3 months ago and got rear ended by a car.
      Luckily I had on all my protective gear, so only received muscle tissue damage... and thankfully no broken bones.
      If it was t for the gear, it would’ve been much worse.
      I agree with you....
      Wear boots ... and all the correct gear with body armour.

    Grip hack: WD40. It will disperse moisture, but provide temporary lube for slipping the grip on. After a few minutes, it's good to go. Also, to get the grip off, use an air compressor with a short 1/4" copper tubing on the end of a nozzle. Insert it into the grip end or next to the switch housing and then the grip will puff up and easily slide right off.

    When removing the clutch pack, you should at least mark the positions. The steel plate and friction plates are most probably built in to minimize overall high and low sections due to manufacturing tolerances and therefore increasing the clutch's performance and behaviour during slip. On a bike, the comfort issues may be much less than in a car, but still it would be advantageous.

      On older bikes when the clutch got grabby I used to mix up the positions on purpose. I would even alternate spinning the metal plates backward. This would end up expanding the engagement point softening it up a bit and that got rid of the grabby feeling. MFR's got wise to this and started making different thickness plates so now they go in a certain order. Thats great when it is new to soften the engagement point but later you can be stuck. The basket gets worn to that pattern so now you can try the oil trick but if it just wont go away it might need a new baskket.

    2-insert the can good from your shoulder to one of the long sleeves of the jacket. For the fifth hack: use tree buckets, not two=soap water has to come off with clean water. And for the bonus hack, you can filter clean your dirty motor oil by draining the used engine lubricant in a container, then use a sponge inside a funnel to separate the burned metal friction residue.

      Why three buckets? You use the soap bucket to get the dirt off, and then rinse the soap off with a hose... I've never heard of the "3 bucket method"... rubbing clean water on your paint will leave swirl marks as there's no lubrication (which soap provides)

    I use the tie down method you mentioned but with a little insurance. I drilled a hole at the ends of the rod for a pin to go through so on long trips I dont have to worry about anything coming loose. Also wrapped the rod with electrical tape.

    @seanwil545 3 роки тому +14

    1) For laces I don't want too long I simply cut them, then use a shoe lace lock to tighten and loosen the strings
    2) I double knot the laces so they are shorter and less likely to come undone. Depends on how long the laces are to start with though.

    Btw. Automotive polish isn't ment for regular cleaning. It's supposed to be done once in a while(say if you got light scratches on your bike). It make the surface smooth and shiny and removes light scratches by removing a thin layer of paint.

    I'm getting 88 GW road ready an it came with floorboards an front/rear shifter. I'm finding tennis shoes are working much better for pedal control in tight area than my riding boots! Interesting! Next time in town I was thinking of looking at lower profile boots that can replace tennis shoes? You asked for hints, I needed plastic fairing repair, that I could reach from underside. Took hacksaw an cut several pieces from black ABS plastic pipe, placed ABS pieces in cover glass jar, covered pieces with lacquer thinner then covered with lid an let set over night. After stirring, an spread, ABS mixture hardens like rock. I should have used this mixture years ago!

    A couple of weeks ago I rode out and spent some of my last few bucks on cereal and sat down to eat. I figured there would be milk in the fridge but there wasn’t. I was so pissed that I had to go back out in the sub-40° temp and rain that I rushed out of the house and forgot my bookbag and didn’t realize until I already bought a quart of milk. So I had to put that down my shirt. The woman in the parking spot next to me died of laughter while I was fuming mad lol.
