holy f***

It looks like a pen that someone has been chewing on...

 

[R13]

How did they make a shifter entirely out of a weld bead?

 

[superhypered]

They didn't, they took a perfectly fine shifter, and then they "reinforced" it. Fucking shit job by some dumbass probly

 

[R13]

Cool, now it can break the shifter shaft when it falls over.

Fuck CV carbs... Couldn't get the KZ started last night. Came home from work for a little bit earlier, nothing.

Then magically starts about 45mins ago... This fucker is getting a single Mikuni slide carb conversion sometime soon.

So I'm back with a new toy. Got this a month ago. It's my first real bike. Last one was a 125cc. This is the new R3. It's 320cc. I know it's kinda the wrong time of year for motorcycles but said fuck it I'm getting it.

What time of the what for what?

There isn't a "Season" you just ride whenever you f***ing feel like it and f*** what everyone else says. :mrgreen:

Looks nice though, strange seeing small cc Yamaha's in the states. :lol:

I'm going to ride it as long as I can. I was looking at some 250s and they all kinda suck on the highway. So it was between the ninja 300 or the r3. So I chose the better looking of the 2. I keep thinking I should have got a 600 until I fuck up then I'm like yep glad I didn't get a 600.

250s are kinda low on power even for beginners. The 300s aren't much more powerful but it's a nice step up from a 250.

 

[2kdb7]

I sit around 8k-9k at 70-80 mph still have enough to pull past traffic no issues. Only time I want more power is when I'm cursing with 600. They leave me behind so easily. So I'm gonna give it a few years then trade up to a r6.

I'm in the market for some stands and some spools. Any recommendations?

Been a while since I bought spools or anything, just check the sites for stuff with good reviews

Just a few good ones off the top of my head^

If you do a lot of highway riding you might wanna consider regearing your bike to drop the rpms a little.
