reposting from old thread > >>Is there any reason why we shouldn't be running them in all motorbikes? >Kind of. I briefly had and electric RC truck that was LiPo powered. I picked up a few things from reading about them as I got into the stuff which may or may not be completely accurate. >>extremely sensitive to charging method. Require special chargers >>must be kept in firesafe bag because of the risk of fire when charging/discharging >>different cells must be balanced almost every charge >>over-discharging fucks the battery for good (big problem on vehicles where there's a potential for people to forget the lights on) >>expensive to produce/replace >>over charging also fucks the battery for good >Since vehicles are already relatively heavy and require a strong, reliable power and not a high power draw, there isn't a whole lot to gain from switching to LiPo at this point.

Was my recommendation for battery delete correct? is there other ways to do it other than swapping alternator for magneto and adding a lighting coil.

>I didn't read the fine print, that's certainly possible. Yeah it's a bit sneaky. Just gotta compare stuff like that to the rates in the end. I wouldn't recommend financing a bike just because of insurance alone though. Credit rating doesn't really exist in the same way here as what you guys have to deal with though.
Alexander Reed
I love Suzuki!
Christopher Smith
i bet you have a flat black helmet too.
faggot.
Christian Gutierrez
>I don't understand anything about anything Cute, kid.
Batteries have built in circuits that prevent over charging and under discharging. The housing that the cells are built into is a fire barrier that expands in the event of a short circuit to prevent released gasses exploding. Manufacturers of modern smart phones like Samsung have been using high density lipo batteries in their premium devices for years now.
Ryder Foster
some guy got killed at the CMRA race yesterday, he was another novice one place above me in the points standings. first fatal accident in at least 10 years
in other news, i had a horrible weekend due to a ruined rear tire (got oil on it last month and the left shoulder turned to goo) but at least i didnt crash.
Cameron Mitchell
>hating on matte black helmets
found the pleb
Xavier White
did he die?
also where are my stickers.
Jose Garcia
How's dbt this lovely evening?
Liam Hill
I do! Another in matte anthracite
Jace Howard
just got up from a nap and now its too late to ride since I have some shit around the house to do.
how was yours?
Nolan Roberts
Cool. The LiPos I used didn't have any of that shit.
Aaron Moore
Alright, wishing it would go faster, get to ride this thing tomorrow
Kevin Lee
Bored, pissed off, out of alcohol, sharted earlier, broke. Where can I sign up to go hunt poachers?
Elijah Clark
>250 >wishing it would go faster of course
Joshua Green
Medium. >tfw procrastinating I shouldn't do this to myself.
Thomas Nelson
Do street bikes use flat rate suspension that has consistent damping/spring rate through the entire stroke, or is the damping and spring pressure progressive as it compresses more?
Nathaniel Lopez
kek
Gabriel Powell
Just got in from riding, orders pizza. They fucked up n bright me 3 pizzas. So it's going pretty ok.
Nice! I had to wipe mine down today. Rising in the rain makes the white look like shit :/ That's nice though, where you gonna ride it? I know that feeling man. I'm pretty sure most west African countries you can sign up for that
Jayden Hernandez
Depends on the bike.
Jose Sanchez
Also, in today's adventure came across one of these
Ethan Phillips
A supersport?
By the looks of the swingarm there is no linkage so I am guessing relatively flat rate, but maybe they use something like the WP PDS shock to get progressive damping.
Matthew Gray
I procrastinate the fuck outta things. The struggle is real
Batman as fuck
Jackson Cooper
taking that and the crf out to this place, there are some 100km+ single trails in that area that are a hell of a lot of fun.
Easton Adams
I bet that would set really good lap times on the Newburgerkingring
Oliver Hall
Depends on the bike. Stop trying to put all bikes into classes thinking they are all the same within that class. That isn't how it works.
Bentley Ortiz
Is it okay to split the carpool lane and the fast lane in Cali? I thought about doing it but I didn't because that's probably a reason why a cop would pull me over
Caleb Hall
post some good bike crashes

Jace Cruz
Fuck yea man. Street tires do ok on that terrain?
Was a small framed guy who rode it as well. Idk how the fuck he hits corners on it
Noah Nguyen
I hate all you fags, i hope you fags get raped by tyrones and die of aids.

The Holy list repels the Skid demom.
Carson Jones
what about chain clearance? got any pics of the left side?
But generally that is how it works. Similar to how all MX bikes use linkage rear suspension in order to provide more progressive spring tension as it gets further into the stroke.
Look at the 2009 CBR600RR then. Flat rate springs or progressive?
Tyler Cook
>mfw 19 years old and wanting to get a sport bike
I don't know if I even want to look at insurance quotes
Sadly no. Those were the only 2 pics I got. I'll get some next time I see him up there
Jack Nelson
As long as its dry they do alright, any hint of water and you go over faster than you can get a foot down though lol
Nicholas Walker
>I know literally nothing about modern batteries >the cheap shit chink batteries my faggot retard hobbiest friends bought off of ebay numerous years ago are lacking basic safety features >So I'm going to assume ALL OF THEM DO >and I'm going to willfully spread my ignorant and incorrect bullshit around as if its gospel
Go low side into oncoming traffic. Tech illiterate retards deserve death.
Justin Hernandez
To each his own I say. He was a cool enough guy though.
I bet, that's epic as fuck though. As long as ur not in that nasty clay mud
Jaxon Brown
>farting quite a bit, smell like dead fish packed inside my asshole >im ok with this >embrace the facial reactions of co workers >no one ever says anything
nigga i know you smelt something.
Oliver Richardson
I don't even want to be on your fucking list anymore.
The Skid Demon and I are homies now anyway.
Chase Lopez

post name so i can delete you.
Evan Rivera
How does one get on the list anyway
Wyatt Bailey
sore. Crashed sumo while off roading. fuking water mane
Andrew Kelly
>wanting to be on this faggy list ayy lmao
Isaac Adams
Can be fun, the cb does jumps surprisingly well
Asher Torres
It's not that bad, I'm also 19 and I got a quote from progressive a few days ago, the minimum is ~$60 a month for me. ~$54 when I typed in that I'm 20, ~$48 when I typed in 21
Hudson Garcia
ByPosting bike and not being a total faggot.
Nolan Garcia
ThIs is what I have left so far, I don't know what else I can do to it tonight
Jason Reyes
This was for a 2016 Honda CBR300R btw
Luis White
KEK! this user is mad because shes not in some list.
Dominic Turner
Builds character man.
How's the suspension? Most I've even done with the chief is pop the front wheel a few times on accident when I first got it.
Logan Watson
should have kept the dual sport tires.
Jason Murphy
fucking right I'm mad about this cancerous shit
Logan Davis
Are you fucking kidding me?
>I found some batteries with safety features >So I'm going to assume ALL OF THEM DO
>I know literally nothing about modern batteries
I am a licensed electrician, and pic related is where I am working today. The DC plant is pulling a little over 3860A. I maintain and install batteries, DC power plants, and emergency alternators for a living. So why don't you go and literally fuck your own face.
Aaron Edwards
Can I get a jump start, bro?
Ryder Parker
I'm the NZfag with a KTM EXC and 4 other bikes that you NEVER PUT ON YOUR LIST.
So it's cool, you don't have to do anything bro.
Jacob Roberts
>Not being a faggot
Has gramps who's a fucking spaz, harley user, drop user who's more of a spaz then gramps
Kevin Miller
Liteally EVERY li-po battery used in modern electronics has those basic safety features. Every smartphone, every laptop, every rechargeable flashlight, every e reader. Everything. You're a tech illiterate retard who couldn't lie his way out of a paper bag.
Jack Robinson
Is a CB500X a good starter bike?
I like the adventure style but I want to start on something that isn't too heavy or strong.
Ayden Jenkins
I can jump start a 5MW genny
Benjamin Turner
get the 700/750
Jose Cook
>ktm Go on
Carter Butler
>and I'm going to willfully spread my ignorant and incorrect bullshit around as if its gospel You can't read. >I got into the stuff which may or may not be completely accurate. You're a terrible person. You were replying to a different user by the way.
Gavin Lewis
Isn't the NC700 an autocuck bike though?
I saw one at my local dealership and it didn't even have a clutch lever.
Carson Evans
get a DRZ
Noah Perry
You're terrible at your job then.
Wyatt Thomas
All of those devices have the charging circuit as well as the low-voltage cutoff protection as part of the device itself, not the battery. Hooking up a phone LiPo to a charging system not made for those batteries will ruin it, just like slapping a LiPo into a motorcycle with a charging system designed for lead acid batteries.
Mason Turner
Hey guys I heard gasoline has lead in it and you shouldn't use it any more. Stop filling your bikes up with gasoline. Because obviously if it was true once its true forever.
Eli Allen
>drop user pretty funny guy and a cuck
>gramps peadophile, faps to loli and censored porn
>harley user Spammed dbt for hours just to make one user sperg for hours
Not him but they deserved to be on list.
They sell a manual one.
Carson Reyes
technically illegal since it's not a border between two lanes when its double yellow. it's considered a barrier that is thought to be a brick wall. but no one will ever pull you over. moto cops do it every day.
Chase Evans
Not suited for that kind of riding ill put it that way
Christian Mitchell
>lie
You're just wrong on this one buddy.
Christian Miller
I miss leaded petrol. engines are only just getting back to how powerful they were running on it.
Ian Garcia
DCT is not standard, it an option and costs extra. Though Honda would like to push DCT as standard on everything. They're not there yet.
Incidentally the 670cc engine used in the NC700X is outstanding. Shame the bike itself is so heavy.
Oliver Allen
I'm the guy who melted his indicator off
Kayden Jackson
put your tongue on it
Eli Young
icharger.co.nz/articles/ArticleId/3/Lipo-Lithium-Battery-Safety-Guide.aspx >Charging Lithium Polymer or LiPo batteries have very specific charging requirements and MUST only be changed by specific chargers designed to charge lithium polymer batteries. We recommend only balance charging your lipo batteries. This is from 2011. >inbr ancient The LiPo batteries sold now aren't any different from the ones then.
Austin Bell
Haha. Roger that man
Ethan Wilson
>Kucktm ayy lamo!
James Clark
They use LiOn don't they? LiPOs spontaneously combust.
Justin Clark
i'd like to slip on that exhaust, if you catch my drift...
Elijah Scott
That's funny as fuck actually
Xavier Cruz
>Honda would like to push DCT as standard on everything >Honda's only recent development is to make motorcycles less like motorcycles Fuck honda.
Jason Young
Honda hasn't done anything interesting in a decade.
Where is the new cbr1k with electronics? Where is a new 600? Where is a new interesting anything?
Bentley Perez
>Yamaha developing self-riding motorcycles so the rider can "focus more on safety" and not get distracted by controlling the motorcycle.
