harryshaft Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Thanks Caliesv. Physically fine. Emotionally torn. It was a week ago today. I was pretty sore for about five days. Nothing is broke but I messed my wrist up pretty bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beemer Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I dindu nuffin yet but I just purchased a new set of tires. They aren't top of the line and they aren't even for racing. They're for a cautious guy that doesn't push the envelope, lives where there are more redneck babies with mullets than curves and gets off the road when it rains. I realize I just don't really need the best tire out there for how I ride so I settled on these. Nothing bad about them really. A little outdated but still plenty good for my needs aaaaand at a good price. < the cherry! https://www.amazon.com/Dunlop-Roadsmart-Tire-Construction-Application/dp/B007GR5K64/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1501853903&sr=8-2-fkmr1&keywords=dunlop+roadsmart+iii+motorcycle+tires 1 Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1limited Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Late last night I snuck out and caressed it wispering sweet nothings into its throttle bodies. I wiped its slender ass with wax and played gingerly with the finer details of her breasts with a soft diaper and more was, then I sat on her and made snesual sounds like braaaaap, braaaap and vroom.

faffi Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Got my old Bagster 2-story tank bag back from my brother, where it has collected dust for a decade. The good thing about these bags is that they will fit any Bagster tank cover and that it can be split in two; you can use only the smaller section, or only the larger section - or both sections together. Sorry for the poor pictures - my shed is uber-crammed. I rode the bike for the first time today since installing the bag. I use only the taller of the two separate bags. The positive is that this does not obstruct the instuments in any way for me. I am 180 cm / 5'11", 32in inseam. Using both bags together will probably make it difficult to read the instruments, especially if they are stuffed. The bottom plate of the bags measure 37 cm in length and 27 cm in width.

You can always listen to what others think about the tires they bought but I suggest just you also read up on them, read reviews and make your own decision. If one tire offers everything you want from a tire at a lower price than the others then get those. That's my recommendation. GL! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faffi Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Generally speaking, if you like the Dunlops and Bridgestones, you will not like the Pirellis or Michelins. The two former are harder and give a totally different feedback than the softer, more compliant latter brands. It's like chassis setups - some find a harsh ride give them feedback, others prefer soft setting to their liking. Best thing is to try for yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
