He's describing the normal operation of the side stand switch - this should clue you in that his side stand switch is 100% functional = hence, it's NOT the issue. Seriously? sure every bike will spin the rear wheel in first while on the stand - but the OP's bike STALLS THE ENGINE when then...

Hold on a tick... I timed myself using a rear stand and it took me 1.8 seconds. How much quicker is this method you are talking about? A swingarm stand takes literally no time at all to use... Confused.

Did you guys not read his original description of the issue??? It's not the side stand safety switch. (he makes that clear in the description). It's clearly the clutch that is out of adjustment, and the bike stalls when he kicks it into first if the rear wheel is on the ground. His english...

Impact it off - then what's your non McGuyver non shenanigan method to torque it on to spec?

Actually... the charge was for SPEEDING. The charge wasn''t for 49 over. The 49 over is merely used to determine how many demerit points are associated, and how much the fine will be. Source - http://speedingontario.com/questions.php Why all the fuss - this is merely a single MINOR moving...

No, no it's not. The slip ratio is not accounted for when it's calibrated - instead, the slip ratio is assumed to be at zero.

I agree with your post in its entirety - except the last sentence. I would have said In any case there is no question that at any steady-state speed, the slip ratio is insignificant / negligible. The difference from coasting and steady state is very minor (at street legal speeds), and this...

I thought the exact same thing.

You do realize that you are comparing 2 completely different products there right? 1 is a mountable 12v accessory outlet. the one you are suggesting is a single to dual accessory outlet y-splitter(this would assume there is already an existing outlet somewhere to split into two). You are off...

Why are you recommending any of this crap? Did someone ask?

Right... but you are skipping over the fact that this situation I made reference to is AT A FIXED SPEED. At a fixed speed (not accelerating or decelerating) - the slip ratio would be 0.000 Now don't come back and say, at 400 kph, the slip ratio is greater than 0 due to wind resistance...

Care to share your source of information regarding a tire slipping when going straight, at a fixed speed! Are you perhaps confusing straight line riding with slip angle while turning?

You do know, that is false as well. Lower pressures = more wear, not less wear.

I'll call your bluff. FALSE, is all I have to say about your first part of the equation. Fact - more surface area does not = more traction. Further: http://www.stevemunden.com/friction.html

so, you're saying that my bike rolling in a straight line, at a fixed speed, is slipping? Someone should tell those guys using rolling meter sticks to stop wasting their time cause their wheels are slipping!

There are always 2 sides to every story... Some of the numbers thrown out here are leading me to think that something is a askew with this story. Who the hell recommended this shop? Someone with more money than brains? And this??? If I read this right, you have busted fairings, so you...

The above, from post #1, is seemingly contradicted by the below :confused:

Why do you not trust the instructions from the manufacturer :confused:

Does she ever smile?

Nobody is nit picking. It's just that those with far more experience than you are trying to share their experience with you. Of you'd rather not learn from their mistakes, that's fine too. You are of course entitled to make those same mistakes and learn from them however you wish. We will...
