I Love Sid! Perfekt soundtrack! You must have mustered up some of your reserve Hulk strength there to keep her from going over. It appeared she was past that point of no return (been there). You have a lot of courage to post this knowing you're going to get an earfull from all the "experts" on YouTube! Cheers!
BMW service center in Long Beach, California gave me a quote that seemed to be rather high. But that was what they told me. The problem turned out to be the fuel pump.
nice save. but why did you bother starting the bike? the description says to keep the bike from coasting down to fast? how does that help unless its in gear but then you would be able to roll backwords unless the clutch is in and at the point its just going to roll. the only thing i can see if to MAYBE help balance the bike because of the pistons moving back a forth just like when riding a street bike. but and why start the bike?
no need to start the bike. put the bike in gear and pull in the clutch, let go of clutch if the bike gets away from you. the engine will act like a brake.
I have searched and I cannot find a bike I like more than this 1986 K75. Maybe the 650 V-Strom? Or Triumph Tiger? Honda NTV 700? The couriers out here in Los Angeles LOVE the DR 650. YZ-R6?
Keep riding! Burn up those tires and support your local motorcycle shop!!!!
@GoofyGentile Im a car person nothing better than burning a corner in a beautiful high performance machine But i have to say thats a nice looking bike
Turned out it was just a fuel pump. $350 with parts and labor. Bike runs like a champ. Total workhorse. Perfect bike for Los Angeles commuting: nimble, narrow, great riding position, easy view, and only 70 horsepower so hard to go too fast. But fast enough.
why the fuck do you need to have the bike running to unload it? if you wanted to slow the bike down use the fucking BRAKES!, that's what they're there for. braking.
@SuperDutyCummins Kudos not coodo's, the apostrophe means its possessive which it shouldn't be and you also spelled it wrong and it should be to not too, go back to English class, jackass
@SuperDutyCummins Wow you got really hurt about that comment i posted, its ok believe it or not I was 12 years old once, but I grew up, you to shall grow my young grasshopper until then you should taked hooked on phonics, and begginer level spelling so you can add other things to your vocabulary other than 'fuck" "shit" and "piss" give it time it will work out
@VeteranofValor It's,"you TOO shall grow.." I also believe that there is no such word as taked. You should have written, "..you should TAKE.." In addition, "its possessive" should have had an apostrophe because it's an abbreviation of "it is" on the whole though not a bad effort, give it time.
@nbkboyz with the motor OFF, the clutch can be used as a brake, since its tricky to get your foot on the rear brake lever while walking it down the ramp. The clutch trick works like a charm since the front brake isn't so effective backing down an incline.
Why did u start it up to back it down the ramp? No brakes? If that thing falls on u with a spinning tire, moving chain and hot exhaust it ain't gonna be pretty.
