  • @aderinolaadeloye8275

    I’m about to buy a 125 and this is giving me anxiety because I live in an apartment so even with an alarm and tracker, it would take me a few minutes to wake up and get to the underground parking if someone was trying to steal the bike 😔🤬.

    • @RokyRode
      @RokyRode Před 4 dny

      I genuinely think that the reason they abandoned mine after stealing him was because they couldn't get him started. with this in mind, I'm thinking immobilisers and hidden kill switches are a good addition along with physical security like chains, disc locks etc. There is also a lock you can get that keeps the front brake applied so that the bike cannot move.

    [BRRRRZZZTTT] World-wide, long ago, car makers switched to spring clips as they respond to vast temperature changes, both the parts and the ambient temps. A little bit for costs, but overwhelmingly to eliminate warranty comebacks due to leaks. Worm-drive clips will be done up fine when you fit them... and then leak when the first deep cold snap hits, as they get looser when the hose material contracts at low temps. Conversely, at very high temperatures, they are now too tight as the hose expands at a different rate than the clamp, resulting in the hose being over-stressed and failing early. We've all seen cartoonishly swollen hoses barely held in place by worm-drive clamps. There is an alternative worm gear drive than can somewhat respond to temp changes: they have Belleville washers stacked on the worm drive, to provide both static and dynamic tension. They're frequently used on turbo ducting on very large, heavy duty engines such as off-road equipment or Semis/HGVs. Standard worm drive clamps rely on the elasticity of the hose material as the 'spring''. But that 'spring' ain't consistent, nor long-lived. They do make tight-access tools that attach to the spring clips with the actuating pistol grip at the other end of a flexible cable. You may be re-visiting those hoses sooner than you think. #WatchWesWork has a couple videos discussing this.

  • @TheSpectre223
    @TheSpectre223 Před měsícem

    I did the first seven years bike-only, because I couldn't afford to get my car license, much less a car. It's definitely doable, especially if you live in the South as I did and there's not a huge amount of snow or ice in Winter as rain is a lot easier to keep riding through safely. I generally had topboxes on my bikes at the time to help with carrying shopping and similar, and as a single, childless guy it wasn't much of a hardship, and indeed there was no parking where I was living so it was beneficial to have a bike over a car. With that said though, there's no doubt in my mind that the ideal garage is at least one bike and at least one car. There are many times when having a car is very helpful, such as this weekend gone when I had four passengers with me, but also as you mention just being able to grab my keys and set off without spending ten minutes getting dressed is an absolute joy that I still relish every time. The same applies to having music and heaters on the way, being able to shift position without affecting the vehicle trajectory, and being able to park without needing to worry about chains and locks. It's good for carrying large objects too, and actually when I got my first car it was December and I went straight out to buy my first Christmas tree. If I absolutely had to go back to one vehicle for some reason, I would probably choose a bike because I couldn't be without them now, but I'd make it something versatile and practical like a Deauville. It's nice having both though, and it's much like smart phones. I don't 'need' a smartphone, I could have some cheap-as-chips brick which can make calls if I break down somewhere but does nothing else, but it's nice to have a camera and instagram. I don't 'need' a car 95% of the time, but it makes my life better at least once a week.

      I'm 6'2" and 44 years old and I find them very comfortable. I occasionally get a bad back but that may just me my old injury. For a Sportsbike riding position some of your weight is on your wrists but still more comfortable than my Daytona 675.

    Potholes and fork seals. A match made in heaven... if you're a bike mechanic 😆

    Try to spend as little as possible UNLESS you are going to put it on the track

    Not every 125 will need new fork seels

    I want this bike I went for a new lexmoto rss look nice but I wish I went for a second hand Yamaha or Suzuki 125

      I agree. The Lexmotos look sexy but the Yamaha bikes are better in every other way :)

    Much the same as most people watching your channel I came across you through searching 125cc motorbikes . Ive just returned back on the saddle after 35 yrs and treated myself to a LXS . Stay safe 👍
