Mine was doing that a bit. I lubed the throttle cable and the housing. Problem fixed but now my grip is pretty loose even after using hair spray gorilla glue (I'll likely just swap those out as it's...

I mean I can't help you with seeing a KLR as a standard as I can't think of much including the riding position that is similar BUT as to your pricing. That seems very high. It is of course dependent...

I get it looks is always subjective. I was saying they're going to triple the sales of the 452 Himalyan compared to the 411 Himalayan. I wasn't trying to disparage other bikes but I get my post can...

The new RE 452 is radically different than the current model. I think they're going to triple their sales of the Himalyan. It's a better bike in every way.

I put about 85 miles on one that my friend owns. I'ts a little BEAST. If I was looking for an ADV bike for 80/20 or even 50/50 it's first on my list. His was a '21 model and they have improvements...

I really like Trails and the clones, I just want a bigger motor. With my 208lbs plus camping gear the Hondas get overwhelmed pretty quickly. I imagine it'll be the same with the clones. Even 200cc...

fwiw, being a twin doesn't mean more hp, indeed, rebel 250 had something like 19hp and something like 12lbs of torque.

Yeah...I'm thinking maybe the lower race isn't installed fully or the headset just simply tightened properly.

Hadn't checked honestly. I'm just sussing out opinions before I do it. I would think there's room for a 2T change up front. That would necessitate a new chain maybe.

When I broke out my gear inch calculator I found that going from 13/49 to 13/42 (a 7T drop) would yield about a 16.7% difference. In your example a 2t drop yielded about 4% so I think we're pretty...

Yeah, it definitely acted like short term fuel cut off but it was very brief not like what a clogged filter would do. It has 91 in it and while I only have 70 miles on this tank and have kept it to...

Give me the pros of the RX4 vs the new RE Himalayan 452 (not yet available here in the US)? I decided I'm going to sell my Triumph Legend for a tourer/adv in the 400-500cc range.
