1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

My insurance adjuster hollered at me and asked what I wanted to do with the bike. I said total it. The loss department(or whatever it's called) sent me an email yesterday saying they're gonna pay out $6200 for the bike. I bought it for $5000 a year ago. Finally something I can put in the W column.

 

Oh, and I finally got my Forman position. I was supposed to get a van since I requested one, but it got wrecked the week before I was supposed to get it. So I got a phone and laptop, but no vehicle yet. I don't wanna drive a dodge, I want a van. So I'm still taking my truck to work. Fuck it.

 

I looked up the 6th ratio for the a760.

Holy shit that's a tall gear.

Top gear in the a750 is .716.
Top gear in the a760 is .586.

For those of you who aren't interested in doing the math:

3.91 rear end
A750 on 31s at 2k rpm: 65.91mph
A760 on 31s at 2k rpm: 80.53mph

A750 on 33s at 2k rpm: 70.16mph
A760 on 33s at 2k rpm: 85.73mph

A750 on 35s at 2k rpm: 74.42mph
A760 on 35s at 2k rpm: 90.93mph

4.56 rear end
A750 on 31s at 2k rpm: 56.52mph
A760 on 31s at 2k rpm: 69.05mph

A750 on 33s at 2k rpm: 60.16mph
A760 on 33s at 2k rpm: 73.51mph

A750 on 35s at 2k rpm: 63.81mph
A760 on 35s at 2k rpm: 77.96mph

4.88 rear end
A750 on 31s at 2k rpm: 52.81mph
A760 on 31s at 2k rpm: 64.53mph

A750 on 33s at 2k rpm: 56.22mph
A760 on 33s at 2k rpm: 68.69mph

A750 on 35s at 2k rpm: 59.62mph
A760 on 35s at 2k rpm: 72.85mph

 

Same exact thing happened to my buddy in 2020. He got like $2500 more than he paid for his stolen bike. They recovered it in similar shape as yours.

 

I figure I'll do it again and work my way up to a Ducati!

 

Tundra In The Snow?

I dunno, while the van sitch sounds shitty the rest sounds like another "W" column addition.

 

hmmmmm.....

 

Time for some 5.29's

 

Please tell me this means you're after 37s.

 

Standing by for pics of you in said bikini...

 

If you want to partner up I can get in on this after I take my motocycle class next weekend.

 

Well this isn't good.

 

And guess what? Oem racks are on back order

 

I ordered a week or so ago, and still waiting to hear when it will ship

 

Thanks for the heads up, at least all the pain is coming on at once.

 

OEM really the only good option? I know some got a Detroit Axle unit with lifetime warranty off eBay. OEM racks are so expensive.

 

470 if you know where to shop, not much more than RA

 

OEM lasted me 160,000 miles and didn't leave me stranded when it failed I guess, that's why it's my first option. I'll take a reman OEM in the sub $500 range that will still have a 12 month warranty.

 

What is this?! There can be only one! (Highlander noises intensify)

 

Doppleganger. Supposedly we all have one somewhere in the world.

 

TITS. Well, sort of. Pretty weak honestly

 

Tundras in the sleet

 

I never met mine but I got a lot of emails from his wife since he had the same name as me. I didn't have the heart to tell her though since a lot of the emails were personal and embarrassing.

I thought by ignoring it, it would make them go away but it did not.

 

I’ll accept that from someone whose forum name reads Snow808.

 

I saw this online...I thought someone here needs to see this:

 

Returned chicken to customer...

 

Finding a chicken is like finding a tool. Finders keepers.

 

How did that thing toss the belt, go for a ride and live?

 

Spy drones are tough.
