Featured 765 Holy Mother Of ***!

Hi.

 

To paraphrase Casey Stoner after Rossi took him out, ‘Don’t let your ambition outstrip your talent!’
It is invariably easier to get into trouble than out of it......
But enjoy!

 

Hello and welcome to the forum

 

Youve just about doubled the power for a similar weight, no wonder it feels like a rocket. Have fun. Sounds like you already are.

 

Hi and welcome. I felt like that when I traded my old (1995) Fazer for my speed triple!

 

Yup, the 765 is a cracker.

 

Congrats. You’ll love it, and with an Indian summer forecast, plenty of good weather to enjoy it in.

 

@ContactSC , I agree with what you said regarding throttle-by-wire. It's very sensitive to input. On bumps, I find that it helps to use the screwdriver grip technique which changes the angle of my wrist.

 

Don't know what the screwdriver grip technique is, something one does in the shower ? I rest my index finger on the brake lever to steady my throttle hand, and two fingers on the clutch, but that's a throwback to my two stroke riding days when they siezed without warning and you had to be ready to avoid a locked rear wheel

 

Looking at one myself, Black, 2017, 2.5k on the clock with a few R&G protection bits as extras, apart from that standard, on for 7.8k. Heated grips might be a nice add and the quick shifter once have got use to it. As for throttle blip and the advice of screwdriver grip? Mmm maybe! Ride safe and as me old Ma always said to me "Never make the girls cry and always find a girlfriend with small hands"

 

Small hands make your d!ck look bigger, small feet means she can stand closer to the sink while washing up

 

I have a 765R and don’t have a quickshifter . I do, however, do the clutch-less shift technique which is basically:

1. Pull the gear shifter halfway
2. Roll off the throttle
3. Complete pulling on the shifter
4. Roll the throttle back on

I only do this when shifting to 3rd or higher gears.

 

No, gear pedal. He’s describing clutchless changes, putting pressure on the gear pedal, quickly closing the throttle allowing the gear to engage then snapping the throttle back open, all done in a split second. Works with small hands and small feet Jimmy.

 

It's the gear pedal, or gearshift lever, that you pull up or push down with your left foot.
