@inqufox1750 Ай бұрын

If you can afford a 6,000-7000$ bike you can typically afford a $50 fairing and you dont have to buy everything all at once either, like on a super sport everything all at once could be upwards of 1000$ but one at a time and you're looking at the cost of eating out at tacobell basically and again you dont need to go super fancy either. Yeah he probably could have fixed it, but zip ties and bailing wire isnt what you put on something that goes 150+ mph (260kp/h) and needs to be aerodynamically sound, if you want to see what happens at those speeds when something doesnt fit almost perfectly look up MooreMafia's drag strip crash it all happened because a bit of air got behind one fairing more then the other.

Great video. I also think it is important to ”get up on the horse again” (don’t know if that actually is a saying in english, since it’s not my language.) to just get out and go for a ride. Otherwise you might get afraid and not dare do it again after a period of time. I’ve seen it happen to people.

1:05 Keep note, your engine, air intake, or exhaust might have holes or openings that are big enough to take in water. Be sure to not get water into the engine when cleaning the bike off.

Also check out other people's bikes the same as yours that have been lowsided, it can help you decide what parts you want to buy protection for. In this case I would buy an engine case protector.

@Ro6entX Ай бұрын

After I had a low side that damaged my fairings and sheered off a bolt on one of the case covers, thankfully my mechanic was able to seal it up good w/o leaks even five or so years later. I used eBay to buy pieces of used fairings which took me several months but eventually got done because I didn’t want to spend $100s on new ones. Had a minor crash, those got jacked up. Although I didn’t want another fairing set as a whole, I end up ordering some from overseas and currently have those on as seen in my profile pic.

@Schmitzelhaus Ай бұрын

Fairings can be repaired pretty easy, since most are made from ABS plastic. You can buy ABS plates and acetone at your local hardware store (LEGO is ABS too btw). Acetone will liquify ABS in a matter of hours and will from there on slowly evaporate, making your liquid abs slowly thicker again. And after it has completely evaporated, the ABS has completely bound to your fairings, basically it´s plastic welded. And it will not break any easier than it did before like it would when you would glue it. 😉

Not sure if this is worth another video but what if you are in a crash on the street where insurance is involved? I’m familiar with the process for cars but what about bikes. Are there body shop or repair shops that fix crashed bikes? If so what should you check once the repairs are complete?

@greatkingrat Ай бұрын

This is probably more for track bikes….with road bikes, just claim insurance and get a new bike. If the insurance deems the bike to be structurally damaged they will put a mark on the VIN…well they do in New Zealand and then you have to get it certified again to allow it back on the road.

I would say step 1 is to learn how to work on your bike. If you are new or have no clue than the only option is to find a mechanic who will do it for you. Also if it is your first crash, it might take a while to get back 100% and remember there are only 2 types of bikers- those who crashed and those who will.

"It's not if you crash, it's when". Thats a terrible mindset to adopt. My brother got sucked into that belief and every ride he went on was expecting a crash. Just like riding a bicycle or driving a car or driving a truck you should NEVER crash. If I adopted that approach with my job being a truck driver and believed a crash is just part of driving I'd be out of a job with a track history that would stop me from applying for jobs in the future.
