yeah, i've definitely beaten it way harder in way hotter weather, this is something new and I think unlikely to be related to heat.
First things first, be gentle with me as I have never done meaningful troubleshooting on an EFI vehicle of any kind. I have a Buelltooth on the way, but don't have it yet, so I can't do anything...
wow, so SPHD is just flat out of parts? jeez, maybe i better order some blue stuff. Pretty sure my bike was originally blue (it's an 06 and i don't think cherry bomb was available then, plus it has...
1. St Paul had the cityX style a few months ago when I checked, but I wanted one without the X so i found a crashed-but-good one on ebay (rear holes cracked) that I am going to reglass (it's hidden...
i paid 2700 for my 9 with nowhere near as many nice parts/mods/sound work done, sounds like a good price
I had a crash 2 saturdays ago when a mail truck i was overtaking turned left as i was passing on the left. Long story short, I (my body) hit the outrigger mirrors on the front corner of the truck ...
Before I wade in (with the intent mainly of just telling the story and also maybe warning people about Postal vehicles) is this the place?
I know from searching that the VIN won't tell you what color plastics came on your bike originally.
I *think* mine [totally a bitsa from previous owners] may have been Hero Blue. I want cherry...
TPEHAK takes some flak around here (in my limited experience) (sometimes for good reason) but this is awesome and it's cool to see yall givin him props where it's due.
now then, i'm dying for a...
TPEHAK, that actually helps, thanks!
I eyeballed the flyscreen badge based on google images results and it looks ok. Having new plastic on there makes the rest of the plastic look like arse, by...
my entire bike was debadged by one of its previous owners and the cherry bomb plastics painted black. so no go there :(
even took the sticker off the handlebar clamp (why?)
someone at some...
I didn't buy the decals not to put them on :confused:
I can't work with 3d models, thanks.
I 'treated myself' and got a new flyscreen, and I may have a line on a used cherry bomb airbox cover that's in better shape than the cracked one I currently have.
The flyscreen comes with a...
Looks great! Hard work pays off.
I'll park it. thanks, guys.
I was headed up a road that google maps suggested had some good corners on it, and there was an unmarked speed bump on it (same color as road, no sign, etc) and i ended up hitting it far too fast...
i too have a pulsing front brake and am watching this thread with interest. Leaky, tell us how great your new rotor is when you get it, in the meantime i guess i'll try to do the due diligence to...
I think there's a thread about this that I read in the past and i just can. not. find. it.
I discovered my bike had a cherry bomb airbox and flyscreen painted black by PO and stripped the paint...
Curious how tall you are/inseam length. People warned me I wouldn't fit on the bike at 6'1 (32 in inseam) but i have loads of room before i get near to the flare of the frame.
Where did you/will...
update if anyone cares, the new contimotion is on and the rear preload adjusted (i didn't have the tool and figured it was worth throwing the shop the cost of the tool to do it one time, since i'm a...
local shop (3 mi away) has a contimotion rear, so i'll do that for now, tomorrow.
hopefully the 'book time' for the tire swap is 'chain drive japanese bike' based and the shop charges very little...
A few weeks ago I went to my scooter club's meeting for the first time in like, 6 years. I haven't had a running scooter since 8 years ago but I went to see old friends and maybe kick my ass into...
well, I guess it was more worn than I thought. So i need a tire STAT. Sucks because I had a great ride today finally feeling comfortable with the bike and some of the roads around here that I know...
My 06 xb9sx 'bitsa' (it's not exactly stock, who knows what POs have done) has a very new ContiMotion tire in front, and a worn-out-to-wear-bars and squared off ContiMotion rear.
These are...
