i only ever wiped out once because of black ice on the entry of a roundabout, never crashed or was crashed into neither on four or two wheels. the most important thing i learned is to think ahead 3 seconds at least and assume the worst at all times. other drivers will miss you, youll miss shit, so you have to drive slower than you think you can. always

@hershelshochter4703 I have crashed every bike I ever had. LOL. All my own fault. No cars involved ever luckily. Just me trying to drift and wheelie etc.

Target fixation I agree with entirely. On riding faster than traffic - I agree, but it's worth remembering other bikes exist. And they may be even faster than you - I aint ghost rider, so I still have 360 degrees of danger. Not so sure on shielding - yes, I use it sometimes, but the counterpoint is you tend to be in a spot where if that vehicle wants to change lane there is a good chance they won't see you / remember you exist so you need to pay attention if they start to move over. I'm lucky enough to live somewhere that filtering is legal, so when traffic stops I'm out of line with the other vehicles so getting rear ended is a lot less likely - not sure I could handle moving somewhere that didn't allow me to do this now. Also gives me the chance to have a good view when pulling away at the lights - though no shield to the side so I have to make sure I'm actually looking for the person that's running the light, though with nothing in front there is a lot more time to be looking sideways.

@asharak84 so true. Prob the most common thing I get is cars moving into my lane. I just slide over with them. LOL. Lane splitting is not legal here in florida but everyone does it. No idea why they don't allow it. Especially in bad traffic, that bikes ain't causing.

It's hard to ride faster than traffic on a small bore motorcycle 😂 Pick slower safer routes when possible. Great video ! Good tips !

Who else gets annoyed with how people use round-a-bouts these days?

@DustySteel I live in in florida so I am the one your talking about. LOL. We don't know how they work and they are putting them in everywhere. You would be amazed how many rednecks just drive straight thru them and over the circle in their trucks.

You gotta be smart and be aware of your surroundings when riding because a lot of people can’t drive

Hello, I recently purchased an Airsal 81.3cc cylinder kit for 139qmb, Naraku NK100.81 crankshaft, D.I.D. timing chain. I would be curious how many kilometers it can run without repairs, driven normally and oil changed frequently. By the way, what jet size should be the best ? Thank you
@GhettoWrenchАй бұрын
@andyandy9610 no idea on durability of these when modded like that. I would imagine it's all RPM dependent. Long as the RPMs are kept 8000ish and below it should last as long as a stocker. Jet size is all personal preference for your geographic location etc. What carb you have?

@ At the moment the original carburettor but I plan to buy a Naraku 18.5 mm or 24 mm one, I think the 24 mm one would be more suitable.
