Fuck man, never seen that one before. That an NT650? Ever heard of that happening to other Hawks?

It was on my VFR750. Just received all the parts but it's the middle of finals so it'll have to wait. About to install a new fuel pump in the NT650 as well.

As far as dropping your bike, check your turn signals, levers, your bar ends and forks to make sure they're not tweaked. And as you posted, cut it and re-weld it. If you're really in a pinch, take off the kickstand and just bend it so that it isn't quite so vertical.

So the monday before Thanksgiving, I was on my way to school when I seem to be stuck in neutral even though I try every single gear. Thinking my clutch is fucked, I look down and find my cush drive hanging off my axle, my sprocket nowhere to be found and my chain just spinning endlessly.

Don't know how the axle nut managed to loosen itself since I had ridden the night before with no problems whatsoever. Spent the last hour picking up bits and pieces of my bikes for a 2 block stretch. Luckily I found the sprocket and it's in decent condition although it must have rolled down the hill since I found it in somebody's garden.

The chain managed to gouge a chunk of tire but the tire is okay for the most part. I've ordered all the parts circled here.

The locknut, part# 19, must have loosened itself since that's the piece that keeps everything together. I haven't found it yet so I'm assuming it's gone forever. I've never touched that locknut since I bought the bike but looking at the axle where it threaded on, there are the remains of red loctite so vibrating off seems almost out of the question. I thought at first maybe somebody loosened it last night outside my friend's house (mildly shady neighborhood), but it's a 46mm nut so I doubt somebody was just walking around with anything big enough to budge it.

The only real warning I got was as if I had a false neutral, my RPMs shot up and a lot of clacking that sounded much like the worn clutch basket on my late 1982 Honda CB750F. However, the clacking probably came from the chain just looping around the front sprocket and hitting the chain guard. There seem to be a few bits and pieces missing here and there as the diagram above depicts. I figured I would order the seals and collars because I have the bearing for the sprocket hub and I think the collar as well. The eccentric hub has a circlip which kept everything on from the cush drive back.

Besides picking up bits and pieces off the road, I had to push my bike back home which included going down and up a valley that had a 20% grade. I thought pushing a scooter uphill sucked until this. I literally stopped halfway up, parked the bike against the curb and walked home to take a break before coming back and pushing it the rest of the way.

yes fat chickenscraps but if you have none while riding in SF, I will gladly buy you a beer.

and what I was able to salvage..

best waywt

People will always judge a person based on their car. Not what brand or model but how well they take care of it.

Why is it then that people with 2009+ vehicles always call my 2008 Nissan newer?

anybody down for a bay meet up in oakland for some lao food?

sam? ken? kerni? is anybody even using sufu anymore?

one of my housemate's boyfriend decided to start spraying adhesive on the back of his photos in our stairwell. Of course he's stupid as shit so he didn't lay anything down and now there's adhesive all over my stairwell. I went on to tell him that it's not okay to be doing this, let alone doing it at my house. When I tried to explain to him that I am the one who has to deal with the problem, he tries to say that it's completely wrong and that he'll take care of it.

And then my landlord asks me about it since he uses the stairwell too. God I wish I didn't have to deal with such a child. His solution to me asking him to take off his shoes in my house is to just not walk in front of me with them on. He constantly rings the wrong doorbell so my landlord is just wondering who this fat asian kid is in front of my house. I always end up cleaning up after him because he treats my house like it's his mom's. I swear to god next time I see him, I'm going to push him down the stairs.

Can't wait until this dreadful roommate moves out at the end of the month. Oh and I'm 99% sure they just clogged my drain...

whoa. rep reset?!

beginning to get into bf3, keep playing metro conquest 64 to lvl up a bit before being shot to shit on the open maps, but i'm enjoying it now.

again, the pc platoon - http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/platoon/2832655240982566431/

only 2 people :'(

Seriously.. metro is the new karkand. Just be a medic and hang back. Revives are worth 100 points which is the same as killing an enemy. I can usually get 300+ points a minute just by leaving med packs everywhere too.

people who look down upon junior colleges.

especially since most of these people go to private universities where they pay close to 50k a year for a shit education. seriously, I have yet to meet anybody from a private uni who isn't an idiot. you think your BA in business/economics/marketing means anything? glhf finding a job

also, how are you gonna talk shit to me when you just flashed your vag at me 5 minutes before?

FILIPINO PARTIES HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

DAT TEXTING

^Damn, hope you get get back on the bike soon.

On another note, remember to calibrate your torque wrenches everybody. I managed to over torque one of my front brake caliper bolts and it snapped. Luckily a bit was sticking out and I was able to use a 12.9 grade hex head bolt in until I get a replacement on Monday.

i'm assuming halo goes to usf.

Hate diagnosing electrical problems no matter if they pertain to vehicles or home. I feel more at home working with purely mechanical concepts where I can visually see a problem.

desperate. need to read

did you try a library? or perhaps two?

Trying to find a new roommate and so far, there's only been one response that interests me. On paper, she seems like she would totally get along with the rest of the house. However, I googled her name and I have the feeling she is a KAG.

For any superfuture users, please add me on origins at evilcrayon. I'm going to take the day off and play. Co-Op anybody? you can unlock weapons to use in multiplayer

I saw that shit. I saw the front tire impact the cervical region and was like, FUCK. I didn't even notice the helmet come off, but just the old neuroscience mnemonic, "C3-4-5 keeps the diaphragm alive..." went through my head.*

*Cervical Nerves 3, 4, 5 innervate the phrenic nerve, which innervates the diaphragm and keeps it functional. Otherwise, hello respiratory failure.

RIP Simoncelli, he was destined to be one of the greats, if his last few years are any indication.

Worst thing since Daijiro Kato

What's with all these prodigies dying as soon as they make it to Moto GP?

I am a member of superfuture but I dress like shit. 2/3 of the time I'm on my motorcycle so it's the same jeans, boots, and leather jacket. The rest of the time, I'm at home where I dress in grey gym shorts, whatever t-shirt, and slippers. Sometimes I get real fancy and put on my superfuture shirt.

short shorts

I can not afford nice things because I have 3 motorcycles that require my attention and possibly hundreds in parts.

Please add me on battlelog: evilcrayon

been dying to play with people who aren't used to CoD. there's still a lot of glitches like a guy outside in the park somehow shot me when i was underground on the other side of the map. dead bodies and random damage are a pretty big problem too.

I'm interested in hearing your guys' opinion on something

I just sold my first bike, Ninja 250 and now I'm looking to get something bigger. I have two options right now, a 2002 R6 or 2003 SV650S. Both have clean title, up to date registration, seem to be in good running condition (I haven't checked them out in person yet). The SV has about half the miles of the R6, but it has a broken speedometer, and I'm not sure how much that'll be to fix. The SV is all stock, R6 has some minor modifications like new tires, oem rotors and pads. And lastly they're both roughly the same price. Which would you guys recommend? I've heard great things about the SV, and I'm kind of leaning towards that, but I'm curious as to what the R6 has to offer. I'll mainly use it to get around town/school, occasionally ride the twisties and also drive it for an hour or so on the freeway.

Ride both. Whichever one you like more is the one for you. Every minor annoyance will end up being 10 times worse when you own it.

They're both very different powertrains but if I recall correctly, 2003 was the first year that the SV650 came with EFI but 2002 was the first year that the R6 was equipped with EFI as well. Because of the new tires, rotors, and pads, it seems that the R6 may have been better maintained. The broken speedometer rings some bells since it's not just a simple speedo cable. It might be as simple as something wrong within the OBD or a broken sensor.

Mileage means very little to me and I usually look for a bike that has been ridden regularly vs low mileage. Check the brake fluid reservoirs for old fluid. Checking the oil should be pretty obvious as well.

thats it...i'm getting a new battery tomorrow. tonight was the last time my battery dies on me when i'm on my way home.

Look into a maintenance-free sealed cell. They can hold a charge for a long time and can sit for a while without discharging. I have one in all my bikes now.

34oz here. 21oz of denim and then 13oz of flannel lining. Been wearing them every single day. I wear them because I am a motorcycle courier and they're comfortable, warm, and I've already had two spills in them and they took it in stride.

Ironheart denim is very soft and smooth. No slubbiness or roughness at all. I was sold on them as soon as I tried on the 301s. Lots of random talk in here that isn't backed up by any proof at all.

heavy weight denim for the novelty factor? I wish I had $300+ to toss around on novelties...
