After putting over 100K miles on my FZ6, 45k miles on my Ducati Multistrada, and currently over 4000k miles on my Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX, I bought a 2024 Kia K5. After last year's winter in Reno, I wasn't going to go through that again.
But changing out the plugs, and changing and flushing out the oil, the blown head gasket would just put more coolant back in the casing and back to the hydro lock? Or just don't start it?
So my 2014 Ducati Multistrada blew a head gasket. I discovered a coffee colored oil that was pasty within my oil cap, many have said coolant has leaked into my casing. The bike also doesn't start, as others said it's now hydro locked whatever that means. So rather spending thousands on...
I never understood why more training sites, including ours don't install crash bars. Would save me from filling out mountains of paperwork. I will have to inform our state provider about these bikes and the aftermarket crash bars. By chance did you take any pics with the crash bars on?
Currently have my dream bike, but a newer V4 model would be nice. 2014 Ducati Multistrada, purchased new in 2015. Sold my Fizzer a few years ago which I bought new back in 07. I think it had 107k miles on the clock when I sold it for $750.
I too have a round head and the Shoei fit me well. Didn't matter which model, as long as it was a medium, it was going to fit. After five years, I retired my GT-Air. I really liked the internal visor. But because of that, the GT Air was never Snell approved, not that it really mattered to me...
I've always worn a Shoei but elected to go with Arai this time. Ordered directly from Arai USA and was handmade from Japan. Took about three months to get it. It was around $500 after I used my Rider Coach discount which was 50% including all the accessories. I have my Drift Ghost XL helmet cam...
So the demo trailer was here in a Reno last weekend. I was teaching a motorcycle class at the college that day so I made it for the last ride. Fortunately I got to ride the bike I wanted to ride, the 2020 Ninja 1000 SX. Has a clutchless shifter and it was tough getting use to it, damn muscle...
In my opinion, having the wedding canceled is even a bette reason to make the road trip. Definitely must see between Wisconsin and San Diego. Montana/Wyoming Beartooth/Chief Joseph Highway, Yellowstone/Grand Teton, Spiral Highway in Lewiston Id, Rattlesnake Grade Wash/Oregon border. Columbia...
