I messaged Tango this afternnoon and got a message back, he's fine, just busy with life n stuff, no worries, ( other than that the frogs are busy voting the national front into power and that we're laying money on which one of us will be escorted off the premesis first... )
Is that the dirt track thing they were talking about?
I don’t get those rules, Harley runs an open 1250 but KTM runs a 890 instead of a proper super duke?
And BMW runs a boxer that came out 20 years ago instead of the modern 1300 or even last 1250?
On the other hand, that Panamerica turned naked sportsbike looks sweet!
I disagree , I've adjusted the tickover on mine with that screw and it worked fine. I know in USA you have drill out a lock screw in some bikes as they are factory set but it's not the same on UK bikes.
Yes they do. My point is to let her feel comfortable getting a full foot down when things go wrong. Dropping the forks through would be much better after lowering the rear but the upper clamp doesn't allow that and I doubt she'll feel the difference removing some preload. Not yet anyway.
I understand that, as a parent, you want the best for your daughter.
After seeing this topic I researched a bit and the most common opinion is to not lower your bike.
The solution for the lack of confidence is : Practice, practice, practice.
As motojitsu says :
If it is injected it will have a MAP sensor, remove that and clean it out, I wouldn’t be surprised if that is the issue, with it being a single if the MAP sensor is gunged up then it will likely run full lean on decelerating and shut the ignition down.
Another possibility is that it's suckin' air somewhere.... @ 1 point I had reseal the intake boot between the carb & the cylinder head. A thin film of Permatex Ultra Black sealant cured the problem.
