>>27602348The trucker problem in America/Canada is reaching a crisis point and it's crazy how normies have no idea how bad it is and don't even acknowledge the problem. They all still seem to think that truckers are predominantly middle-aged white guys whose entire life revolves around engines. In reality I would estimate probably 70-80% of CDLs on the road today are either illegal spics who don't actually have a CDL and are driving illegally (and badly at that) or some fucking pajeet that was simply given a CDL at one of the fraud schools. I never used to get nervous around semis when I was younger because I knew most of those guys had been on the road longer than I'd been alive. Nowadays I try to give them as wide a berth as possible because I know there's probably some third world retard behind the wheel who doesn't even know how to drive
>>27602363Anime is cool :)
>>2760236590% of trucker in the USA are negroids from Louisiana.
>>27602363Anime stickers fend off brainless drivers, this was revealed to me in a dream. Also please wear proper gear and learn 2 ride, deaf anon.

Tried out my bag with a load of stuff in it. Makes me sit further forward than I'd like, so need to pack it to be more upright and less bulbous. Braking feels slightly less effective although the bag is only 13kg. Handling is mostly the same but is a bit weird on bumpy roads. Seemed well attached after an hour of fast country roads and a bit of motorway in what I would call medium wind.
>>27602306Starting to get too hot to ride bros. Idk if I'm gonna make it to October.

>>27602423I'd rather not die 30-40 years earlier than I had to because some stupid currynigger immigrant that shouldn't even be here drifted into the wrong lane while he was daydreaming about fucking goats
>>27602306What is this, a thot for ants?

>>27602469If so, then no indians involved. He was working for Italians.

There are times when I only want to ride my monster and I think it's the best looking bike in the world. It makes me want to buy a modern 797 so I can ride a monster all year round.Other times i prefer my sedate jap bike when I don't want the bike to be the focal point of my ride.Anyone else swing back and forth between what you want in a bike?
>>27602498It's OK to buy multiple bikes

Sometimes I want supreme refinement and comfort that let's me just enjoy the ride. Sometimes I just want to be 7 feet tall and jump curbs and down stairs.

>>27602552I crushed some pajeet pussy that was literally fresh off the boat less than 10 hours previously. She was about 5’, 95lb and tighter than hell. Some of the best I ever had. She was a friend of a friend that got a visa to come over to the U.S. and she lived with us while she got a job and a place to live sorted out. Best summer ever.
Anyone got that pic of the Japanese girl in Showa era dress on a motorcycle?

>>27602587>omg did i admit i'm not the world's fastest rider? i cross train to get better? how cringe bros...You're not racing dipshit, and driving a cage doesn't do anything at all to make you a better rider and is an absolute retard thing to think.
>>27602591>Showa era dressThis one?
>>27602607Nah. It's more tasteful. It's a nice photo.
>>27602589base>>27602606i get it now, too poor for a fast car
I'm been trying helmets and I just got an Arai today to test. Holy shit it's so plush and comfy feeling. The pads are so soft compared to my current helmet and the shoei I've tried.
>>27602610Ok
>>27602610HYBShoei is garbage
>>27602609>get it now, too poor for a fast carEvery time you no bike faggots fall back to the same basic playbook when your dumb ass no bike ideas get called out. Fuck off cagie.
>>27602620>Shoei is garbageWrong, and tribal direction brain faggotry.You can enjoy the supreme qualities of Arai without having to hate Shoei you know, zoomer.
>>27602608well, that was from the showa era.
>>27602625The shoei seems quieter (although that's hard to gauge just in my house). When I started looking I thought for sure I'd be getting an Rf1400 but now I'm not too sure.
>>27602628It’s whatever fits your head best. For me Shoei helmets fit like a glove.
>>27602625Shoei is a midrange helmet at a premium price point.
>>27602625Holy cope you pathetic manchild Sorry your manufacturer of choice isn't the best
>>27602628I have a Quantum-X and an RF-1400. The Shoei is a little quieter, but I realized that it actually doesn't matter because I now wear earplugs every time I ride anyway. They are both comfortable and well made, but I personally prefer the Arai because it is more comfortable to get on and off than the Shoei due to the shape of my head. The pad quality in the Arai is a bit better, and I've come to like their visor system even if it's a bit whacky at first. After owning both, I will probably buy Arai in the future but will absolutely still recc Shoei. Just try both and buy the one that fits better.
>>27602604Post bike, you won't.
>>27602306I love my motorbike. does this happen in your country?

>>27602641I also still have this CTX that I am in the process of selling, so that's 2 bikes to your nobike, you larp fag.
>>27602636>but I personally prefer the Arai because it is more comfortable to get on and offBut the shoei has little tabs to grab when you put it on and the arai doesnt. Also the arai cheekpads come loose more easily than the shoei.
Anyone ever buy a jacket from First MFG? Looking for a nice leather jacket for spring and fall riding. I can get this one for only $269.99.

>>27602656t. Techno illiterate The garage and dusk photo have less color variation so it is easier for machine language to "describe" than is the golden hour pictureNow post your fucking bike or kys tranny
lol the excuses
>>27602652I only ever used the straps to grab when putting it on, and my experience with the lads has been the opposite. The pads never come loose in my Arai, but one of the pads in my Shoei comes loose almost every time I take it off. Maybe it's out of spec. Also, I think my Cardo fits more nicely in my Arai and it was easier to route the cables ot of the way, but the speaker pockets in the shell on the Shoei is a nice touch. I think they're really pretty equivalent and it's down to a matter of preference.
>>27602670Is this retard nobike discord tranny nigger lover Jew fundimg smoothbrain still not posting a bike?

>>27602647>some self aggrandizing bullshitI didn't say Shoei is *bad*, I said it's a midrange helmet at a premium price point. I'm sorry I made you feel bad for buying one. You shouldn't feel bad for buying a Shoei, you should feel bad because you are an objectively bad person.

>>27602698Financed for 96 months bro. Only 27% apr
>>27602713>go for ride>die because of target fixationFTFYThe biker to the right did exactly what he was supposed to an did ot very well. Was there a reasonable expectation that a truck wouldnt be in your lane? Yes. But this is a risk implicit in getting on a motorcycle. I went for a brief ride today and almost got slammed by a durango right after I almost got hit by some blimd fucker merging simply cause the driver probably had to take a bad shit. What was supposed to be a 20 minute ride around roads I know very well almost turned into a hospital bill. This biker knew what was at stake.
My bike will be 5 this year but still feels brand new to me
>>27602698mfers finance them and when they go over water is why you see a lot those several year old factory clean Harleys with 1500 miles on them with an asking price far below the msrp

>>27602348Is riding a huge bike like that a hazard when it comes to this shit?I don't wanna victim blame but I could have easily swerved around this truck
>>27602777>I could have easily swerved around this truckI'm sure the fact that they came around a blind curve and suddenly were faced with the front end of a semi in the wrong lane had more to do with them hitting it then the maneuverability of the bike. That's just not something you ever really expect to see and they didn't react quick enough
>>27602777Possibly but the real problem (aside from the driving of the truck) was the lack of visibility due to the trailer home obstructing the view, leaving only approximately 2 seconds to react, if the bikers didn't realize something was wrong during a small visual window of opportunity between the blind corner and behind trailer home. The other problem is state of mind, were you running on auto-pilot slowing reaction time or are you in amber-alert mode? Lots of factors in a situation like that
>>27602777This isn't one of your video games, zoomer
>>27602348His head came clean off, jfc
>>27602780There's a very small moment after the blind curve and behind the motor home where the bikes have visibility but your average person wouldn't realize something is wrong within that short window of opportunity. You can see for a brief moment that the bikers are visible right before the trailer home, that means the truck was visible to the bikers
>>27602799>never seent a gut dieYou new to the internet?
>>27602802You would've died too. What's your point?
>>27602793video games are unironically a good way to practice speeding up your brain, the thing is, it also requires practicing it in real life to translate fast brain into fast muscle
>>27602807I don't think would be in the right lane going around a blind corner.
>>27602348if he had a full face helmet he would have been ok
>>27602804I've seen plenty of gore you fucking retarded nigger, it's just wild to see when you see it. You're not fucking tough because you've seen cartel videos you paki faggot
>>27602808Lol at you zoomers
Shit thread today, real Reddit in here
>>27602807Most everyone would've died in that situation, all 3 died, even the one who dodged, probably dodged the truck and rode straight into a car. My point is, always be on the lookout, if the bikers for one moment looked ahead, they could have had a chance. If you were place in that situation, you want all the chances you can get to survive, always look ahead.
>>27602820LAMAYO. JUST BE A WIZARD BRO

>>27602430Ride something agile instead of a garbage barge bagger then look ahead. Not hard. Baggers are bought by people wanting to show off their wallets and most recent bagger owners barely ride the things and have never seriously practiced emergency maneuvers.Most riders period don't practice evasive maneuvers. My wife ran her Shovelhead through the USAF MSF course faster and smoother than many crotch rocket owners.
>>27602454What's wrong with wishing a boot dance on the deserving? It is still done now and then. It's perfectly moral to destroy those who ask for it. The man should have been crippled on the spot.
>>27602531I was alive when the US was much paler and it was a vastly better place in ways callow youth cannot imagine. The pre-WWII Asshole Generation ruined that long before boomers had any power. Thank LBJ in particular.It was also the golden age of motorcycling when needing technical competence filtered the faggots and traffic was vastly less even in cities.
>>27602898It's going to be hilarious when you run into an unexpected hazard on the road someday like a broken down car around a blind curve and you eat shit and total your bike. I hope when you post the wreckage in /dbt/ a bunch of faggot turbo-autists like you all talk shit about how they would have certainly avoided it and you just have a skill issue
>>27602561/thread
>>27602594Needs a 19" front rim and an 18" rear like the Meriden bikes, otherwise quite nice.
>>27602879You're so edgy :)
>>27602898>Ride something agileYou realize most motorcyclists aren't LARPers who like to pretend they're Eddie Lawson, right? Most people are casual riders, and most of the people who buy baggers buy them because they like to be able to pack for a weekend trip or go touring across the country. >My wife ran her Shovelhead through the USAF MSF course faster and smoother than many crotch rocket owners.>my wife showed up a bunch of people just learning to ride motorcyclesWow, so impressive, she sounds like an insufferable cunt just like you. Also the fact that you even said crotch rocket tells me you're either a nobike or you're like 60 years old, either way fuck off
>>27602654Looks good bro go for it. HYB
>>27602898Love my Baggers
>>27602922What's that contraption next to the hawg?
>>27602927Green buoy
>>27602908I remain unsmashed after 46 years of riding because I do not outrun my vision or braking distance and never squid. No curve is blind if you slow the fuck down.Having ridden a large variety of personal and customer bikes there are very good reasons I do not rock an 800lb bagger with shit ground clearance. Most two-party crashes are the fault of the cage operator but being legally right and physically splattered is not an optimal outcome. The only things you can control as a rider are what you ride and how yo ride it. HDs can handle and stop decently but not carrying the equivalent of an extra passenger in chrome baubles helps greatly. That's why my daily since 1988 has been my FXR (currently getting a V124/Baker six speed for grins) or my 1994 FXR though I've other light bikes like my Sporties, Shovels, Nortons (the lightest by far of course),Triumph Trident etc. Ever wonder why used baggers sell cheap? It's because their owners tire of riding a two-wheeled car. In times of yore (when baggers looked good naked) chopping slashed weight and was itself a performance upgrade but far fewer owners today wrench and their rides are basically Winnebago equivalents they take to their Taj Mahal HD dealer to get assraped for the most basic service. That's also why they wreck baggers frequently on Tail of the Dragon (which really is just a green overly tight shit mountain road with few runoffs which became a meme and was at least fun before it got crowded).
A real shame that Yamaha never made the XTW250
>>27602917>Most people are casual ridersYes, and their ignorant refusal to take a serious subject seriously gets them killed on the reg. Physics does not care if you're a casual.It's objectively wrong to be a casual because that's less performant and dangerous. I know far more about every aspect of motorcycling than you do because I made the effort. You cannot support your opinion with testable facts, logic and reason so you fail to support it at all."Hurr, durr, I'm exempt from learning because I'm too lazy and stupid" will continue to kill and cripple morons who think like you do. Responsibility for a crash is only relevant in court. Is it better to be legally correct and splattered or thorough, competent and disciplined and not killed by the next idiot you meet on the road.
>>27602922That's fine but do you make the effort to handle them with max proficiency? Also that's barely a bagger because no fairing or tour pack (the wiser choice with which I agree).
>>27602948Bumblebee shit
>>276027515 years on stock tires? Time to change em.
>>27602940>>27602951tl;dr shut the fuck up boomer, I'm guessing you ride like a pussy 20 below the speed limit with a mile of backed up traffic behind you which is why you're "unscathed" after all these years
>>27602916I honestly enjoy casual shit flinging being the wild kid I was but I'm getting too old to call it fun and too young to preach so I just enjoy the ride
>>27602952There's a difference between a bagger and a touring bike my guy.

>>27602348How much less dead would these riders be with airbag vests and full faced helmets??
>>27603158Those pirellis were a nightmare here, with the sand and mud that is the Pine Barrens. Tusk2Tracks have good reviews, curious about them when the AX41s are worn.
>>27603171Anon, that's brain matter sprayed on Rafiki's windshield... All an airbag would do is make the splash zone bigger when it went BOOM.
>>27603195and thats where the full face helmet would be better than the brain bucket(now emptied by rafiki). I'm guessing the person would at least still have a head if he had an arai on
>>27603206Full face would not help in that situation. >t.hanks, worked with dead folk a long time
>>27602348Damn its almost fucking set up. The fucking truck hauling the RV was blocking their view, and in attempt of likely overtaking or 'hittin' those twisties' at a higher speed all led up to it
I had a really great day on the Triumph today. Went on a lot of dirt roads. One of them was hardly a road and it got pretty intense. Offroading is more of a workout than I expected
>>27603211Dude, it's a multi lane highway, not "twisties". Yes they were overtaking, but they were within their direction of travel and free to do so. >>27603215Look up "attack position" for dirtbikes and try to squeeze the frame with your legs. Elbows up. You will spend half as much energy.
>>27603222I'd slow down. Learn patience, kid
>>27603219im saying what if that truck pulling the RV wasnt there at that moment. Would they had had a higher chance to see it sooner and possibly be going a bit slower?
>>27603215scrambling seems like a blast. do you sit mostly or how do you do it?
>>27603215Don't push it unless you want to risk cracking a bunch of ribs like I did. Get better tires too.

>>27603246the opposite is true
>>27603263>5k I'm very very poor.
>>27603226I was standing up when it got especially bumpy. That way my limbs sort of extend the suspension instead of just weighing it down with my ass.>>27603231Probably won't be going offroad enough to justify 50/50 tires. I like how smooth these are on the streetDidn't take any pictures of the difficult part because I was busy trying not to drop the bike.
>>27603270Then after the muddy and stressful offroad bit, I got to eat lunch and stretch by the lake. Met a nice family there who was collecting litter for earth day so I helped them out for a little bit. It was a good day.

>>27602751>>27603001>>27603158Nice pic bc broFinally got a new exhaust I see, or I'm finally noticing it.I need new tires already and this is my third set.I got the motoz tractionators and like them offroad but the front tire is shit on the highway and scalloping hard. Causing lots of vibrations in the front.I think I might go back to scorp rally str on the front and keep the tractionator on the rear for as long as it lasts. Still lots of life left.How do you like the tractionator GPS? maybe I should get the gps for my front tire.When I get my new tire on I'm down to go for a mainland ride.
>>27602363I remember when "COPPING SLAPS" and stickers threads were removed by jannies.

>>27603378Comfy
>>27603352king shit right there
what is going to be less unreliable? an 890 adventure or a desertx? i've heard the dx has some niggles but the 890 seems like it can break any part at any time
>>27603460Tenere 700
>>27603463i'll have to try one but they seem like they'd be too slow for what i want (i'd consider a 1290 and AT). also sorry but yamaha is kind of gay
>>27603468Thanks, you too...
>>27603460>desertxGood luck hauling it from the top of the mountain to the nearest Ducati™ certified workshop because the user manual says so.
>>27603468do you want to ride the mac mostly?
>>27603510i think they're all going to be like that, you wouldn't want to affect the ktm warranty either>>27603513i want to replace 3 bikes but my favorite big mac bike is my dually anyway so might as well pick the most dirt oriented. sounds like the f900 enduro and tuareg are up there too
nvm just compared the air filter access in all of them

>>27603352Absolute kino just radiating off this pic
>>27603517Who are the morons in these companies that think a motorcycle made specifically for riding in difficult terrain and roads has to be treated like a street motorcycle? Sure, they may argue that 90% of adv riders stick to the highways, hence the demand for features such as cruise control, but that can easily be done by a touring bike.
>>27603537>treated like a sport bike>cruise controlmate do you even know what you're mad about?
>>27603537it's a BMW. beemer owners want luxury features and they pay extra expecting their bikes to have them. this ain't no honda boi

why is yammie bad
>>27603595It's not.
>>27603553>>treated like a sport bikeWhen did I write this?>>27603567Would you buy an adv and ride it offroad, knowing that you can't fix it if something breaks?
How do I not be a wrenchlet and learn how and when to maintenance a momocycle when I buy one (without watching gay youtube videos)
>>27603604By reading the owner's manual
>>27603604Haynes service manual, also you're a retard for dismissing youtube.
>>27603604YouTube videos
>>27603604service manual. the first chapter tells you when and the next 12 or so tell you how. you're right about youtube, it doesn't teach you anything more than how to mindlessly follow instructions
what do you all think of Kayo K6r dirt bikes?just looking for something cheap but tall to ride around my property
I want Sabre or Magna V45/65 next to my GL500. Am i a tard or trad?
>>27603604talk to your bike. it'll tell you what's going on
>>27603726>talk to your bikegot it!
>sniifffffis that>snnfiiiiifffffresh bread??
>>27603188Yeah I've heard that. We have really rocky terrain here so they were decent and I was really impressed by the mileage out of them.
>>27602348>multilane highway with no dividing barrier + earthworks between directionsIs this a common thing in america?
>>27603171Head on with that much speed and mass involved you'd be dead even in a car. A side sliding impact maybe but that would depend completely on how you get thrown off and such.Still If I was in that situation I'd rather have those than not.
>>27602777>Is riding a huge bike like that a hazard when it comes to this shit?pretty much, sport bikes are actually safer in the sense they have better handling, braking and acceleration however the acceleration is so powerful nobody focuses on braking or turning so they die a lot more than cruiser people.
>>27602348this could have been prevented with a S.N.E.L.L and E.C.E rated helmet.
>>27603239>belt loops>no beltWhat did Yves mean by this?
>>27603333Holy based and checked I've had my exhaust for years lol. The tires were recommended to me so I'll give them a shot. Haven't really had a chance to see their offroad chops but my hopes aren't super high given the rear tread center line. When you come over let's do a long day ride, there's a lot of loops I wanna do.
>>27603877Helmet still would have flown away, it just would have had a head in it.
>>27603894DOT cope
>>27603517Used Tuaregs aren't that expensive. Only 80hp, but I find the ride to be great. You need a dealer or mechanic with PADS (I think) to reset service lights, though. For me that is a min 1hr away.
>>27603898find the DOT helmet in that picture.
>>27602777>>27603869My wife hasn't told me she would leave me, but she has discouraged me in the strongest possible terms from buying a Road King for this very reason. She has suggested a new KTM instead, as she understand ABS and traction control to be safety features.
>>27603894Even the strongest strap method (D rings) give way right before imparting any lethal force. The more ya know
>>27603885>loops Couldnt be meI live for the long day rides so I'm looking forward to it.
>>27603915Gonna need a reference for that because the standards only require the straps NOT break, there's nothing in the standard suggesting a breaking force.
>>27603912This wife of yours, you got any naked pics of her?
>>27603803I don't know, all I can smell is burning toast.

in 2 weeks are suzuki days and i finally can testride a hayabusa. woohooo

>>27603171A gun probably wouldn't save me from the knock out game or someone getting the jump on me but i still carry one.
>>27603998> suzuki daysWhat's the difference between these "<brand> experience days" and usual testrides?
I want a 600. My 300 is not doing it for me anymore.
>>27604111>more people>at least one brand representative that actually know what he's talking about>free baubles, sometimes>at least one boomer WILL "lay 'er down" at sub-10kph
>>27604125Sounds like a good time.
>>27602984side lugs are hardly used, so it looks like you just ride around on hard ground/dirt, so why buy a new tire for that? If you are asking about a tire that beat, then its fine for your riding style and riding frequency. If you know someone who races or rides a lot you can get or buy cheap used tires from them and save a lot of money.

>>27604135But how will everyone know how serious i am if i dont ride a GSA with full kit of hard luggage.
>>27604131Well I already have the new tire. And yes I ride on desert and mountainous terrain, which is a lot of sharp hard bedrock, gravel, sand, and just generally dry rocky sharp stuff.
>>27604113Bro just get a 1390 or else you'll just be in the same boat again in 6 months.
>>27604155Shut up anon. I think I'll be fine with a 600. Also, I'm a poor so not yet.
>>27604063Not me.
>>27604063that's a beemer
>>27604135Is this motorcycling content for retards or something? The benefit of power in an adv is so you can ride on the road better, not so you can spin the your faster when dumping the clutch in loose terrain.
>>27604142A gsa with full hard luggage is just a goldwing you can take camping. The hard luggage part is mostly to protect your shit from nogs and gipsies.
>>27604177>adv>on the roadokay faggot
>>27604177Just more of the ole'>all adv bikes must be compared to mx bikes and all adv riders are actually offroad racers (racists)
>>27604183Also has the benefits of getting a little vacation from work when you drop it on your ankle>>27604188Laziest most overdone takes on the planet
>>27604111where i am from most dealerships don't have dedicated test bikes. you might get to ride a used one but seldom a new one or the dealer buys one extra and uses that as his test bike and sells it 1-2years later for a special price.on this suzuki days the suzuki representives drive around the country with a trailer full of bikes and just let people test them.>>27604125and what he said
>>27604177Welcome to the ADV world. Everyone has their own opinions on whats the ideal ADV bike and everybody else is wrong and should feel bad.
trying to buy a dirtbike is the stupidest shit evera mix betweenthey want more than a new bike but list it for $1they put $1234 in the ad and want to tradeits got a blown engine and they want $3000or there is no title and the price seems somewhat reasonablelegit about to buy an amazon special
my VFR let me down today, was standing around a busy intersection. in 30minutes only one car stoped and ask if i need help. she was a legit milf. asked if i need help or a lift. politely declined both since i already called the roadside support. but she gave me her number "just in case".I'll think o call her up and invite her to a nice cup of morning coffee at my place. wish me luck anons
>>27604203>says his VFR let him down>gets number from a hot milfbut did it really let you down, or did it know exactly what it was doing?
>>27604113go bigger, i got a jap i4 600 after riding a hurley vtwin 1200 for 10 years and it feels weak as shit. all i need it for is wheelies but its a letdown after hearing newfags talk them up since forever
>>27604208Spin the engine up.
>>27604196Stop being poor and just buy a new one, dirt bikes are cheap as fuck relatively speaking
New thread, ir im buying an ad
>>27604203Damn vfr bro, at least you might get some tail. My 6th gen stalled on me last week a couple times but I think it's because my rpms were too low. Turned up the idle knob and she's been right ever since. Still I know the feel of a beloved bike letting you down. Also glad I have roadside on my insurance kek.
>>27604231even at 9-14k rpm the r6 engine is powerful for sure but it feels tame, good for my needs but if i was big into sportbikes or rocket acceleration i'd just go bigger
>>27604292>>27604205>but did it really let you down, or did it know exactly what it was doing?was thinking the same after posting... seems like my VFR became a wingbike. sorry i doubted.turns out the milf is into bikes, ofcourse she is. gonna pick her up on friday afternoon, she is looking forward to "dress in leather and have a 2up ride" she said also has an "old lady i should testride if i am up for it" (translation issues might apply)wondering what it could be......oh and the viffer works again, turned out the reserve petcock aint working anymore and i just basically ran out of gas even though i had the reserve fulll
>>27603239Can it protect a skin on the asphalt? How thick would a lambskin need to be?
>>27604292New mexico?how do you guys ride at constant 80f+?
>>27604397Where do you live that 80f is hot?
>>27604404Ya, even in Michigan 80f isn’t considered hot.
>>27604395preferably two layers, and a lamb in between
>>27604397Vegas actually. Not really something I actively think about when I ride when its 100+ degrees f out in the summer. Normally though, I try to avoid traffic when possible so i'm constantly moving, but that was when I had to commute for work.Nowadays, I avoid day rides in the summer unless absolutely necessary or I get that itch. Otherwise, night rides are where its at when it isnt cold season.

>>27603352What mirrors are you rocking in the vid?
>>27605710I smashed one mirror on a drop months ago and happened to have a generic mirror at home I could slap on til I got a new set.I think these are the oneshttps://fortnine.ca/en/bikemaster-folding-mirror-10mm-universal-end-uThey have a pretty narrow FOV compared to the stock ones and are very buzzy at high speeds. But I like how far out they are so I see less of my shoulder than the stock ones, and I kinda like how they look.This was supposed to be a temp fix but now its been over half a year. I'm thinking about getting double takes but if they are as buzzy as these, I'll just get another stock mirror. Or just stick with this asymmetrical setup until the left mirror breaks.
>>27605727Thanks man. The two mirrors i currently have on my klr both have a weird zoom and i can't see anything in them above 60kph.
>>27602348we need total pajeet death for this... fuck i cant believe these fucking 60iq cunts are allowed on the road.>>27602454You're a faggot if you wouldn't stand for your brother just murdered by some fucking turd world cunt.
