    I've spent most of my time recently at the track. Braking into a corner with the rear skidding because the stock slipper clutch on my R6 isn't very slippy just further cements how useless the rear actually is in a maximal braking situation on any modern lightweight performance bike.

    Outside of using it for hill holds, I don't use the rear brake. Some people use it for slow speed maneuvers, but I just foot dab if I'm going that slow because fuck it, I'm not trying to pass my license test anymore (I already passed it). There are handlebar mounted thumb brake options as well...

    Really the only thing you need money for is weapon and frame slots. If you were hardcore you could sell rare mods for plat and buy those things as well. But that's real poop socket territory to grind all the way up to be able to do the hardest content on the limited pool of slots you start...

    Trailer for a car/truck to tow a motorcycle or a trailer attached to a motorcycle? My buddy and I use an enclosed trailer for trackdays. I've also used a 2 rail kendon fold up. If you have a light dirt bike you could get one of those hitch mount sideways racks. Otherwise, what are your...

    ~125-ish HP. I've got the RS, which loses a few ponies in the mid range for a few more at the top end due to a different cam. Stock exhaust is pretty quiet around town, which I like a lot. Most of the heard sound is gear whine. The belly pan is functionally useless but it definitely cleans...

    Nope! My 2018 Street Triple manual had a warning to not adjust the preload collar on the Ohlins rear shock... I mean, really guys? It's a full function shock with 30mm of preload adjustment. My dealer was dumbfounded by that when I showed them the page.

    Usually an owners manual these days is 3 pages about how the electronics work and then 100 pages of lawyering in 7 different languages. No actual torque specs or instructions for removing anything are included. They'll just say "Go see your dealer to replace your headlight bulbs".

    Cylinder would run richer with a more restrictive exhaust. Downsides include cooler cylinder temps and less peak horsepower.

    Anything is possible. If the battery has run down a few times without being maintained it could have issues. Lithiums are the worst in this regard and I'm sticking to agm for some level of long term reliability off of a tender if I'm careless.

    That doesn't make sense if you start fine with a different battery (car). The clicking is the relay solenoid working but the battery lacks enough voltage to run the starter itself. What voltage does the battery read when hitting the starter?

    That's a simple one, get a new battery. And get a tender and plug it in.

    Those anodized covers are a racket. I had a '08 690SMC for a bit and replaced my brake reservoir cover with one because the throttle cables had destroyed the oem cast cover from rubbing and vibration, $30. But the oem part was like $23 or something equally stupid. I wish that modern mid...

    As Sludig has said, the AC/10s are really bad from a min/max perspective. You can nearly run two AC/5s and do 90 damage instead of 60. 10s are still terrifying from an rng to the cockpit of an unbraced mech standpoint, but that's really it.

    2006-2007 R6 was seen as the Gen 2, and was down some mid range power compared to the 2005 and pre Gen 1s and had shorter forks than the 2008+s. The 2008 had variable intake stacks and regained the midrange but had some other frame/airbox oddities that the 2009-2010s didn't have if I recall...
