Hi. Yesterday I had a low speed rear ending collision. Ending my front fairings almost all damaged. Also the glass of the headlight. Any advise on that part? Is is possible to just replace the glass?

I bought those same levels and the left clutch had too much friction in the housing causing the lever to not release the clutch when letting go. Perhaps a manufacture defect?
@PointsUnknownTV 22 күн бұрын
I guess so. I don't think I understand how the housing friction was caused by the lever? Is the cable not aligned?
@bensaheb9869 22 күн бұрын
@@PointsUnknownTV right side went in like butter. left side could barely get the lever into position. Lots of friction at the pivoting points of contact. The lever felt like it was too wide to fit into place... I saw you recommended the same lever I ordered and thought to give it a second try.
@PointsUnknownTV 22 күн бұрын
Ah. I see. Friction at the pivot. That is no good. Does sound like a manufacturer issue. I had that issue with some foot pegs I ordered on eBay. Would not fit at all. I took a grinder to them and now they are great! But I wouldn't recommend that approach for something as important as the clutch.

Get rid of the black box and side bags. Move to a giant loop style bag. You want to ride like a pro? All that bulk and weight adds up and does make a difference. Go as light as possible plus you wont hit a tree or vehicle with that crap hanging off the side.

when removing the clutch lever you have to screw the silver part all the way in to get slack and line up the slot so that you can remove the cable leaving the silver adjuster in place. then do the opposite when installing the new lever. what you are doing at 3:10 is wrong
@PointsUnknownTV Ай бұрын
Sure. If you say so. But my method worked just fine. And I'm not sure how you would remove the cable end from the slot with the adjuster in place. But I appreciate the feedback and can try that next time.

How tall is Beth? You didn't mention anything about seat to ground distance and I'm wondering if this might be a good option for a person who has shorter legs.
@PointsUnknownTV 3 ай бұрын
Beth is 5'-5" (165cm) tall. The UBCO seat height doesn't seem that low (32") - but Beth has no issues with a 29" inseam. Furthermore, the frame is step through at the center, given it's scooter-like configuration. So even if the seat felt a little high, you can move over the center and have plenty of clearance, even with shorter inseams. So - yes, I think it would be great for shorter legged folks.

I really don't see the point in using the tape over big globs of sealant. The tape is almost definitely going to leak. Sealing the individual spokes should be adequate if prepped well. Also, it's much easier to clean off if you have to adjust the spokes. You can use a rotary wire wheel then just reapply the sealant.

Yup. Lots of people just do sealant. And lots of people just do tape. I opted for both and I'm happy with the results.

Wondering what's the purpose of the rubber rim strips on top of everything. I put one on my tubeless conversion (3m 5200 quick set only with no 4411n tape) and it broke and made my wheel unbalanced at random speeds. Found out after replacing tire for a new one - no issues with it since. Rear, started leaking so slightly after 1 1/2 years so I removed the tire to look at things and I don't think I spent enough time cleaning, roughing up rim etc. So now in the process of redoing rear with more attention and the added protection of the 4411n tape. Hoping for the best. Thanks a lot for the video!
@PointsUnknownTV 3 ай бұрын
That's a really good point on the rim strip. I put it back in "because I had it". But it really is extraneous with the sealant and tape. Even if I did bend the rim and need to put a tube in, I don't think I'd need a rim strip. And it's a good anecdote that sometimes the extraneous stuff causes more problems than benefits.

I did the rear only on my 2018 AT, lost 0 air for 90,000kms then rode 3 long days in 100 plus degree heat to a flat tire morning of the 4th day. Tape looked like tissue paper when removed. Just bought a 2023 Transalp, I’ll do the rear only again.
