I'm not one to call people cheaters but this was suspicious as hell.

I started watching this guy because he ran me over while I was laying in a field with a gillie suit perfectly blended in. Maybe he got lucky or actually saw the lump and aimed for it. Cool, no problem.

Then I watched him hang out the window and shoot two people who were teaming in the orange coupe. He didn't miss or have any recoil. And then there's this clip, a one shot hit on a dude kinda far while in motion. I switched to the guy at the end which is how I know it was a hit.

What do yall think?

Jet sizing questions for 03 Road Star 1600cc

I just realized this morning on my way to work that I definitely need to rejet my carb and I never done this before. I was hitting 90+ and the bike started losing some power.

So how does the sizing work? Instead of doing something this major on my one carb, I'm planning on buying a new one and size that one and install it to avoid any mistakes that may put my bike out of commission. Is there any down sides to going to large on the jets? Does it have to be 100% perfect to function well? I don't know anything 😭

And since I'm already resizing I figured I might as well mod the air intake while I'm at it. I included pictures of the carb, air intake I'm currently eyeing, and my current exhaust.

Help with tuning, please.

I finally got the cap off and turned the fuel screw a little bit and regained some torque. It's not quite how it was with the stock 2 into 1 but it's a noticeable difference now. The problem is I still have the same decel pops as before. Do I just keep turning until they stop or is this a permanent feature of aftermarket slip ons?

Edit: It's a 2003 Road Star 1600cc. Forgot to add this part.

If you came from a smaller bike to a large cruiser, how long did it take you to get used to scraping pegs/floorboards?

Cornering is very different on a Yamaha Road Star 1600 compared to a Honda Shadow 750. Every time these floorboards scrape I feel like I'm about to lowside and lose a leg. Help plz 😭

My new(to me) bike. 04 Yamaha Road Star 1600

Just upgraded from a Honda Shadow 750 and even though I haven't hit the highway yet, I already feel the power difference. I think I made a good choice.

I don't take high DNF Tysons serious.

46% DNF? I either go for a quick knockout or play with my food.

Recently learned there are seasoned riders who dislike the highway. Why is that?

I started riding last year around this time and spent a lot of time watching different youtubers and reading about motorcycles leading up to buying my own but only about two weeks ago I learned there are people who don't like riding on the highway.

​

I saw this in a local rider group and even asked why. I was ignored the first time and got blocked by another poster when I saw the same sentiment again on another post. So now I ask Reddit.

How it started vs finished product.

Finally able to proudly show it off.

I swear if the front fender never broke off I never would have chopped the rear fender. It was so beautiful but I still would have painted it red.
