>given how easily you're able to compress it
So if that black bracket is not a ratchet, what are the teeth for on the piston? Where's the ratchet that is supposed to stop tensioner from compressing when installed in the bike?
If my tensioner compresses all the way until stopping on spring wire bowtie - does that mean it is broken?
I thought cam chain tensioners only supposed to extend but not compress.
My idea is that as cam chain is looseing overtime, tensioner would extend through the teeth but ratchet would prevent it from compressing backward.
Mine compresses backward with minimum effort.

>the black latch hooks over the pin that sticks out of the plunger
You are right. New 20S12210100 are shipped with black latch hooked over pin that sticks out of plunger/piston.

I am going to assume that that shit-ass piece of spring tied in a bowtie around the plunger IS the ratchet. And mine was on the last tooth after I have taken it out.

Two possibilities:
1) when you take tensioner out, it loses compression against cam chain follower and thus extends all the way, clicking through teeth on the spring wire bowtie ratchet

2) my cam chain is so loose that tensioner is naturally on its last tooth

I've put tensioner in as it currently is at the bottom pic = the ratchet is on the last tooth so tensioner is in a MAX extended position.
The cam chain doesn't fucking budge when I try to pry it with screwdriver handle. It is TIGHT.

I don't know how much play is it supposed to have, should I leave tensioner like this or move ratchet up few teeth so it has more space to extend naturally to expected distance?

IDFK how I will achieve that given that it clicked through all teeth while I was taking it out, presumably.

>>28975892
Those notches wouldn't work to hold the plunger in using the black latch, they're angled in the wrong direction. It almost seems like the clip should be on the furthest out notch, then when the tensioner is installed in the compressed state as the plunger extends over time as stuff wears it will move out, the clip will slide down, but because it can't slide in the other direction it will stop the plunger being able to going back in too far. That's my guess, yours has worn all the way so the tensioner is now at full extension.

>>28975915
Yeah the clip (that I called spring wire bowtie before) is at the last tooth.
But I don't know if it was there before I've taken tensioner out or it clicked through teeth in the process.
Given that before taking tensioner out, the chain had slack, not much but I can see a little play when touching it.
After I reinstalled the tensioner - there is no play in the chain.

I think tensioner was not on the last tooth originally, it clicked through the teeth to full extension when I've taken it out.

The question is do I leave it as is or try to compress it to more modest length?

>>28975820
it was only half accidentally. Adjusted suspension and it felt very light so I was trying to rock the bike and forth a bit while riding and thought what if I rock it back and bit the throttle and it just worked

> chicken out and can't break traction
sliding turns on sand are fun, worst case you low side it pretty slowly and it barely hurts. if you counter lean it’s very controllable

>>28975984
Cruiser gear?

>>28975919
Ah yeah, that could have definitely happened. It looks like you can squeeze the ends of the clip with some pliers to open it up and then compress the plunger. Do you actually know if your tensioner needs replacing? My assumption is that it's the oil pressure that provides the majority of the tension and so with the engine off you will feel some slack in the chain, given how weak the spring force is I think it's just there to make sure it's not just flopping about when there's no oil pressure.

tanto sv looks good! i don't know shoom you kinda just had a fast af shoomer kawi, maybe something a bit more relaxed? i don't know how's the market for a crf and other bikes in maplecountry but if you could find a guzzi v7 you could start a cool uncle saga with one of those very peculiar V twins that shake a lot and with the clunky gearbox by design. i don't think you could get to trade the crf for something with a boxer twin but maybe you can also find an old R1200R? the 2009-2014 one.
Advdad says that the boxer twin is very special and you have to try it at least once and both options you have shaft drive so you don't explode another chain if you tour with them and they are a bit more "unique engines".

>>28975954
oh i was talking about turning it 90/180 by sliding the rear to turn back on dirt, not sliding DURING turns but i really wish i could learn how to do cool stuff like that. maybe in the future.
I'm still super tempted to get a crf but ironically the pre-2024 beta alp is even better but i can't find one close to me, i want to return as beta-anon but now with dual sport certification but it seems it might be harder and will have to keep pushing the svartpilen to it's offroad limit instead

Next time make the new thread yourself then, I just copied the last OP.

>>28976017
Seemed like the right bike for my wants and needs. Needed something that would be comfortable on highways, but also honestly would like to try some light offroading that my last bike had trouble with because you don't have to worry about cars on dirt. Basically, I needed a bike that could do it all. Thought about the KLE 500, KLR 650, Honda Transalp, and Aprilia Tuareg but ultimately went with the T7 for, in order: more power, better highway comfort, better low end power, and better reliability.
There're no right answers, but this one seems to fit my needs for now. I hope so anyway, otherwise you guys will get to have a good laugh at my expense in the upcoming months.

>>28976056
ok fair enough. honestly im a poorfag so ill probably never have a license because i need a full on car to get a license for a motorbike

>By "mountain bike" I mean my pedal bike
i figured, rear brake on bikes is almost always on the right hand afaik. i've just been preferring the front because of a mixture of driving game inspired larp about how front braking is better for suspension loading and my rear brakes do not exist

What's the point of Honda's e-clutch? Why not just buy a bike with a quickshifter if I want clutch lever-less shifts? Or a AMT if I don't want to use my clutch at all?

>>28976064
>and my rear brakes do not exist
Kek based.
Having good front brake control is definitely good. Rear is good for low traction I guess. I dropped my bike using the front brake on snow once and another time on gravel.

>>28976065
>What's the point of Honda's e-clutch?
Firsf I've heard of it but Google says you can stop without stalling. That seems kinda nice I guess.
But I'm in the fuck electric gizmos camp. Who even needs quickshift? I can shift my Harley without the clutch I think sport bike fags can manage the same
>noooo I can't let off the throttle for even one microsecond

>>28976066
for the brief like month i had a rear brake i only liked it because there was snow

>I dropped my bike using the front brake on snow once and another time on gravel.
same, i ate shit just trying to stop completely on a Multi Use Path on my old e-bike because there was black ice, and recently took the moped to a short section of trail to try it out and almost ate shit somehow even harder than on the ice front-braking hard because they made the trail literally end in a wall after a blind corner

>>28976068
>>noooo I can't let off the throttle for even one microsecond

Fuel adjusted ZX-4RR is still 17lbs lighter than a ZX-6R while having more electronics on it and not a lot of places to actually lose weight for free besides a narrower rear wheel so it's not that pigfat, just presumably not as stiff (you do not ride hard enough to need it to be that stiff). I'd rather have a separate rear subframe.

It's a British company now owned by Indians, just like RE. Believe it or not, Norton has lots of racing pedigree and they even competed with the glorious CB750 back in the day.

One of the comfiest Honders ever made, It makes the right sounds. But, also take a test ride of the CB750, SV650 or MT07. If you are ok with older bikes, you can also get the glorious VFR. Some later models even came with ABS.

If you are considering the Aprillia 660, also consider the GSXR750, 600, CBR600RR and the R6. I don't wanna suggest the shitty R7, but you'll have easier time getting parts for it.

Hmm. That doesn't sound right. It should shift when rolling. Check your clutch adjustment. If the clutch isn't fully disengaged the transmission, it could cause that, but it could also be more serious like a slightly bent shift fork.

I wouldn’t say the Daytona is leading any pack in breaking feedback but there’s a good argument to be made that it’s the best bike in the 650 category right now. Everything else is a ptwin except for the Honda with its 4 cylinder engine. Twins have roque but no top end and Hondas inline 4 has poor low end torque and needs to be revved to make its power. The triumph with its three cylinder motor gets the best of both worlds. It has plenty of low end torque while not running out of power at the top end when you rev it out. The riding position is nearly identical to the cbr660r.

my friend sent me this and said the guy was interested in trading him for his piece of shit truck he's been trying to get rid of.

the seller said "it’s just an ignition switch" and his buddy checked it out for him he just doesn’t have the time right now to deal with it.

that sets off alarm bells for me a bit. but could you not just bump start it and see if it runs? or hot wire it and see if the lights come on? or if we can trigger the starter and get it to turn over that way?

i told him to not buy a project because who knows what could be wrong with it, but i imagine we could figure out pretty quickly if the bike is "ok" or not. what do you think?

that is the vibe i get. my brain goes "well what if it is actually that simple?" i mean, we bypass the ignition switch and maybe it just starts up. but i also think that might be a bad vibe sort of thing.
like, if the seller is an old guy in a clean garage with other motorcycles, you know he probably takes care of his shit. but this one has a bad taillight, and it doesn't start, and the tires are bald... maybe he doesn't change the oil, or wash it regularly, or whatever. just a red flag that indicates the seller's character, that there might be other problems too

Not specifically. I'm just truying to diagnose violent RPM-dependent vibrations on the bike. I'm done investigating engine mounts, injection, ignition and intake already, now it's CCT time.

I've seen couple such channels on YouTube, they focus on short video format, curly hairs, black bikes, music over exhaust and expensive clothes. Basically riding bike is secondary for them on those groups.

>>28976664
Yes and they take up space, and need money for maintinance.
If you don't have a garage and you have to park in the street they are easier to steal, if you do have a garage a car is a much better use of that space.
Think about this for 2 fucking minutes you retard, if you're young and have little money what are you gonna use your limited money and space for? A bike or a car that has enough storage space that you can use it to move and you use comfortably year round?
The answer is simple anon, even you can figure it out surely.

>>28976664
They're expensive if you don't work on them yourself and/or need to buy all the tools from scratch. They're weird somehow both dirt cheap and an expensive luxury.

>>28976678

>>28976664
>good bikes made in 2005 cost $2k-3k
Fixed that for you.
Newer good bikes aren't dirt cheap. Older bikes require more maintenance. It's either time or money, and their utility is limited, ultimately making them a costly toy.

>>28976680
You might start crying now retarded kiddo

>>28976684
You don't need newer bikes to enjoy riding. Good bikes don't require more maintenance.

>If you are considering the Aprillia 660, also consider the GSXR750, 600, CBR600RR and the R6.
I've heard and seen this dumbass advice in so many places and I have never understood why someone would give it.
The 660 has nearly nothing in common with the modern versions except seating position. It was 20 years ago when the Gsxr had 100 hp, and the power delivery is significantly different.

What do?

>>28976754
Yeah if $200 isn't too big a deal to you it's handy to have a second helmet. It lets you wash the liner of your main one and still be able to ride while it's drying, or if you drop it or have an accident you don't have to wait to get a new helmet to ride again.

Seeing how this is apparently for a license twst, there's some bullshit reason the first choice is the correct answer

>>28976550
It is effectively a fad that ended 17 years ago when the economy exploded which is also incidentally why everyone under 45 is dirt broke. You can't expect a generation that pissed and sharded about Covid to be in to something perceived as dangerous as motorcycles anyways. (getting shrekked mountain biking is fine though for some reason)

>>28976699
What it has in common is the price tag, actually looking at my nearest dealerships an RS660 is $1000 more expensive than a GSX-R600 and pretty much identical to a ZX-6R with ABS so you have to really want a Shitalian piss twin or get a way better insurance rate. GSX-8, CBR650, or ZX-4 with one R is what I would be shopping instead and not even considering the Ape personally desu.

your following distance has nothing to do with engine braking though...even

>>28976894
the following distance is eaten up pretty quickly when you think you should be slowing down but actually don't. on a normal bike i'd have bled the speed off and then calmly stopped when i realised that she did, but on this thing by the time i realised what's happening it was an emergency braking event to not engage in surprise buttsex. baisically, everyone is at fault, mostly me, then the bike, then her.

>>28976988

>>28977004

>>28977000
This is correct. But it makes zero sense. I should look for drivers' eyes in every crossection to make it safer? Wtf? Maybe I should tip my fedora after for each car as well? That's ridiculous.

>>28977006
are you retarded? you look in their eyes to see if they look back

>>28977006
>I should look for drivers' eyes in every crossection to make it safer?
yeah? were you not taught this as a child?
meeting eyes with drivers even as a pedestrian in the crosswalk confirms that they see you and are aware of you.
and if they can't meet your eyes because they're looking at their phone or staring the opposite way while they intend to turn without looking, that's important for you to know too.

>>28976865
I know how you feel but you should really give yourself a wider gap between you and the rider in front of you

Thanks anon, she's a base mode trying her best. I like your GSXR very clean.
Lowering kit is the usual recomendation, but if you want to do dumbshit off road I would look at a lighter bike like the AJP PR7 with the lowering kit installed, it won't feel as top heavy and will be easier to pick up.

Yeah I've had mine for 37,000 miles now. Ask away. Daily commuting all year round + long haul touring & grocery getting. I was looking for a VFR alternative that wasn't 245kg.
I'd say the aprilia is probably the best in class but it would have never done this many easy going miles as the honda.

Pros
>It's comfortable enough to tour on.
>Reliability is reasonable, only 1 shorted loom and a cracked OEM exhaust to write home about.
>Still fast. It'll hold 240 kph on the autobahn
>Good fuel economy if you baby it
>Virtually immune to rust. My roads are heavily salted in the winter and it doesn't care
>Back of the seat has deep padding
>Competent at cornering, responds well to wearing nice tyres but definitely falls into the 'stable' camp, not twitchy
>Extremely direct throttle feeling
>Good wind protection with smooth airflow to your helmet
>Immune to sidewinds. Somehow it can shrug off a 50mph sidewind like it's nothing

Cons
>the engine is gutless in the low revs and doesn't really have a crazy top end
>Buzzy! The bars and pegs buzz like crazy at 6,000 rpm which is where you are 80% of the time. Unpleasant.
>Fuel tank range is just 130 miles in reality
>Geared far too long. 60 mph in 1st means you gotta be doing 45 mph in 2nd to reach the start of the power band.
>Front of the seat has next to no padding

When I test rode an mt09 and a triple 765, I didn't feel like they were so much better than the 650 that I had to sell it.
I will probably replace the 650 with something else. Maybe a BMW r1200rs, Ducati supersport or a big cc cruiser. I don't think I like i4s or highly strung engines.

When I get back down to first gear I baby the throttle so it idles around 1200. Once it realizes its in first gear and starts to figure out reality I ease the throttle off and it solves the issue. Gay I know but it works for now.

Similar style but is a mid-90s Italian two-stroke. Whole point is to ride around some Italian town looking cool, smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee.

I had to rewire the brake light recently. Bought a great crimping kit so this was my first time out on it since. Cabling was a real mess and a dangling lead touched the exhaust manifold and burnt though. I used 5 amp lighting cable in its place as I the brake light should be 2 amp.

>>28975834

Cbr650r anon here. CBR all the way. The r7 is too uncomfortable for 72hp. The tank is hilariously small too. If you must have that engine, get it in a tracer 700 chassis. Just as capable and more practical. Arguably the ninja 650 is better than the r7 but nobody wants to hear it.
Tuono 660 is the class leader by a big margin.

Is it too saturated and not worth doing anymore? I have a friend I wanted to start a grow with, but he didn't seem to excited even though he was working for someone else managing their setup.

>>28977634
There are still pockets around the country that can still be lucrative like the bible belt. The best money was just after legalization when the market hadn't corrected yet. See, when it's illegal and therefore risky to do, there is tons of money to be made because supply stays low. Low supply+high demand=lots of money. Michigan went legal in 2010 but it took many years for the industry to actually commercialize. In the meantime the state didn't allow dispensaries so everyone had to keep buying their legal weed from the street. From 2010-2020 you could basically print money. Now that the legislation has been rewritten, dispensaries are now allowed by the state and commercial growing licenses are a thing you would barely make enough money to even make it worth your time. So can you make money? Maybe, depends where you are. Let's assume you're in a place where you can still sell for $1000+ a pound, do you know anyone who would buy cannabis in bulk? Can't tell you how many people i back in the day who grew a bunch of pot and then realized they didn't actually have a buyer. Also, this is just my personal opinion from years of experience but I wouldn't grow with a partner. For one, you're cutting your money in half. Two, there is going to be strife and disagreements over who did what, when, how, why etc etc. Growing with a friend is a great way to not have a friend pretty quickly, I know from experience. If you can't do it on your own, don't bother. Even if you can't make money selling it, it's still a fraction of the price to grow your own than it is to buy it from the street or the dispo and you'll know what went it it and more importantly, what didn't go into it. Nasty shit gets sprayed on bud if it means not losing a crop to pests or powdery mildew, even the stuff that's been "tested" by a lab. Those guys growing it know how to game the system to beat those lab tests or the lab is giving them falsified results in exchange for kickbacks believe me.

>>28977657
Tl;dr

Maybe, depends if you're in a legal state or not. The more legal risk there is the more money there is to be made. Don't take a partner, grow on your own. Even if you don't grow for profit, it's still worth it because it's cheaper than buying and you will have clean weed.

The wr250r is an everybody bike. No matter who you are you'll find utility out of it. Want to go for a 6 hour long ride? It'll do it. Want to just go get a quick beer? itll do that. Want to put it under a tarp for six months before getting it out to drain the float bowl and start? no fuckin' problem.

literally one of the best products yamaha has ever made so of course they discontinued it. Then they discontinued the xt250 line because fuck you get a tenny, here's some crap 125cc that sweats going up minor inclines instead, go to hell burger.

Cruisers used to be even MORE dominant in the US market, and they had a brief international moment in the early 2000s before the financial crash, so pretty much everyone has made an American style cruiser at some point

Not happening with your two new bikes. You can try your yamachan vocaloid.

I'm too depressed to fix my bike and too poor to take it to a mechanic

>need a torque wrench
>pan does not fit under bike, neither does wrench, need a lift
A mere $350 at harbor freight and now i can save $50 a year at the (((mechanic))) by doing an hour of work and taking all the risk on myself. I should have just parked it over a storm drain to pour out the old oil.

Sure, just assume everyone’s a richfag that owns a ceiling.

>>28977989
Thug it out pussy and get it done

The trick is putting yourself in a do or die situation where you MUST fix it.

redpill me on tracer 900
i remember someone having one
im debating between it, ninja sx and versys and gsx gt, and maybe NT1100
they are all roughly the same price used

Okay how do you fix a motorcycle if you live in an apartment? If I start draining oil on the sidewalk the police will be called 100%

>>28978060
>i’ll change my own oil this year!
Good.
>need a torque wrench
It's not a valve head cover. It's a plug and a filter. Just don't be retarded.
>pan does not fit under bike, neither does wrench, need a lift
You don't have a metal bowl?
Motorcycle doesn't have a center stand?
Don't have two fat pieces of scrap wood?
How low of clearance are we talking here?
You can get a scissor lift for $40
What r u riding anon?

>>28978128
Just ride it out to some abandoned house and do it there. Then run from the cops.

>>28978128
>Police would be called
Doubt it, drain it into a pan and don't look like a crackhead and nobody will give a shit. Someone barks then tell em it's your only mode of transportation and you HAVE to fix it to get to work tomorrow.

Good thing about harley: aftermarket and knowledge is big.
Bad thing about Harley: despite this, there's gaps in both the aftermarket and knowledge if you actually flog your shit.

See: my sportster. There's only one option on the market(two if you count the Chinese clone of that option) for 15" rear shocks.

Also, if you clutchless shift your bike a lot, evidently that will make the clutch nut start to back off, and it's the same symptoms as a clutch that needs adjustment, except you do the adjustment procedure and it fixes nothing, no matter which way you try and do it. And not even HAMMER DAN of HAMMER PERFORMANCE knows what you're talking about because he says clutchless shifting is bad in general, and I guess not enough of even his customers are doing it.

So basically what I'm saying is normies want to be that quirky different main character person from the movie, without knowing that your life is actually harder by being different, not easier.
