The popping on decel started back up today. I assume it's because the last owner cut the baffles out, or possibly I didn't seat the crush gaskets correctly. Is there like slip on exhaust tips with baffles or something?

Updated the T7 collage.I know there are more Tennys around here so post up!All these different sizes and aspect ratios makes it tricky to get them all to fit together.I could just crop them 1:1 and make them the same size and arrange them into a grid.That's kinda boring though.Also should make some sorta border. Any ideas? I could copy the bingo sheet.

How do I get into hooligan racing? I keep trying to find info on the websites for different tracks and shit that are part of the circuit but these websites are made by fucking tech illiterate boomers and they're full of dead links and I can't get any info. I keep seeing videos of these cool impromptu hooligan races where guys just show up on whacky shit and race and have fun, but I don't understand where people are learning about these events.I don't have any delusions of racing professionally or something, I just want to find a dirt track where I can bring a modded Sportster or something and do fun shit in the dirt
>>27636792Sorry man. How old was he?
>>27636883How about I leave that up to you.You sound like an expert.
Holy shit there were a tone of cops while I was coming home from work today. I think one went out of their way to tail me a bit too. Haven't seen cops on my rout in some time.
>>27636893>How do I get into hooligan racing?Same track days as the sport bikes. Supermoto's are the only ones with special track days.
>>27636806>harley Based
>>27636914I'm referring more to the hooligan stuff in the dirt though, I know a lot of the super hooligan races are on pavement but most of the amateur hooligan racing I've seen has all been dirt, sometimes with a small paved section. And in any case the track days stuff doesn't help me much since I live out in the sticks and the nearest motorcycle race track to me is like 2-3 hours away
>>27636924Sorry I know nothing about the hooligan in the dirt stuff.
Planning on getting my first bike next month(mt-03) after I pass the MSF course. Is it a bad idea to ride it home from the dealer? My only riding experience up to that point will be from MSF.
>>27636933No its a rite of passage.

>>27636785Yes I am your friend bro how are you doing?Did you ride today?
>>27636977>Yes I am your friend bro how are you doing?Great! I'm good just hanging out with motorcycle friens online. >Did you ride today?Not today, I had to go to a graduation and look nice so I didn't ride but I thought about riding a lot. Do you have any streamies or wembos that you need someone to watch?
>>27636924Search up dirt oval tracks in your area, and go through their sites one by one. A couple days ago I made a list of almost every track within a couple hundred miles. kind of a pain even with google maps. You talking about flat track?
>>27636542
>>27636986Cool, I'm waiting on my rear tire, can't ride broChill night
>>27637001Yeah, like I said I'd like to eventually do hooligan stuff where there's twists and sometimes some light jumps and shit, but I'd settle for just having a dirt oval that I can go fast and left on. That's the main thing I'm getting at is that I'd like to learn how to handle a tracker like that, but where I live I don't really know of too many dirt trails around me. I've taken my ADV bike down some forestry roads and practiced power sliding and shit but there's a big difference between going in a straight line and turning, I just want to practice those kinds of things and maybe eventually do some amateur racing when I feel comfortable
>>27637023Which tire did you get?
>>27636819Here's an r6 I picked up in all its glory. It's still a work in progress, and I'm waiting on paperwork before I put any money into it. I've only ridden it a few miles because I'm pretty sure the tires that are on it are the ones that came from the factory. I posted it when I got it, but the paperwork is taking forever.
>>27637036I'm getting the same, it's a Bridgestone BT-39SS. Very good and soft but low mileage and expensive. It's very good though
>>27637048Oh yeah you're r6 healer anon I remember you. You're doing a good thing rescuing this bike. >>27637049I like the line down the middle.
>>27637030I've been wanting to check it out too. Where are you located?
How dumb is it to buy a new DRZ in the year 2024?
>>27637057Northern Indiana, it blows around here for any kind of motorcycling shit that isn't boomers on hogs. There's tons of race tracks scattered around the Midwest but from what I can tell almost all of them cater exclusively to four-wheeled shit, I've been combing through directories of like every dirt race track in Indiana/Michigan that I can find and I have yet to find a single one that has flat track events
>>27637055checkedkek thanks, my friend. Besides for some things to get it back to oem and replacing some consumables, it doesn't need much healing. It's practically brand new. >>27637061Not stupid if you absolutely want new, but there are a lot of decent used examples out there. They also usually have some upgrades.
>>27636971>babytalkchomo faggot
>>27637055Me too, but after that you only got a bit of tire left
>>27636971Are you an actual transexual? Why do you always write like that?
>>27637063Man, you weren't kidding. They barely keep their schedules updated. I'm wondering if maybe they have some flat tracking, but don't mention it on their sites. Kart tracks will usually have Sumo stuff going on too.>shady hill speedway>plymouth motor speedway>ironman raceway**>circle city raceway>US24 speedway
how come kawasaki doesnt have a cute scooter?honda: cubsuzuki: accessyamaha: vino
>>27637088Scooter are for fags. They should use you in their ads.
>>27636849Tell me about that tail section please.
>>27637085Maybe, I'm starting to wonder if maybe it doesn't have something to do with liability/insurance purposes. I imagine just opening up your race track to a bunch of drunk idiots on suped up sportsters is probably a recipe for a lot of hospitalizations so maybe the smaller race tracks just don't have enough money for the insurance for that kind of thing. Or maybe they're just fags, idk. I know there's some dirt tracks on the other side of Illinois/Wisconsin that do flat track but I'd really prefer not driving like 6 hours just to practice turning left in the dirt
>>27636873Do T7 riders have more fun? It would seem so. It would seeeem soo....
>>27637099>Tell me about that tail section please.its stock, really pointy too like a stinger it means it goes fast. theres also holes back there that act as wings to keep it glued to the track. >>27637066stealing this wemb

>>27637211If you have no debt and some savings to blow, and nothing to keep you where you are, buy a tent and a duffel bag and ride across the country. Only place to go is up. It's May, perfect month to start a vision quest. I wasn't in as bad of a situation as you but I was hating my own existence a couple years ago. Thought back to probably the third 4chan screencap I had ever seen, some anon talking about the concept of "if you have nothing to lose, you basically have freedom to try anything." I had no interest in skydiving or fucking STD-ridden mexican whores, but I did put on 12,000 miles all across the US and ended up moving my whole life halfway across the country. Got a better job, got a steady girl for the first time ever, and I like the location better. If you got laid off/fired you can even file for unemployment and the government will subsidize some of your trip.

>>27637346Fuck yeah. Larp as a fallout character
>>27637343It will be 2 years ago in fall. >>27637340You're better off looking at people like Scooter Tramp Scotty or Camping with Steve (Steve Wallis, I think?) than asking me. I was a good law-abiding boy and paid for sites 95% of the time. A shitter and sometimes a shower was a nice luxury but if you get that done ahead of time/on the road/skip it for a day (dry shampoo helps with bad hair in the morning), find a state/national forest, read the state's laws on dispersed camping, or just in general find somewhere remote enough to quick throw a tent down on somewhere that you know isn't private property and hopefully don't get woken up by some ranger with a stick up their ass. NO FUCKING CAMPFIRES outside of a fire pit in a paid site, both for stealth and to preserve the land. Do not damage more of our beautiful country.
>>27637365What did you bring with you? Looks like you have enough stuff for 3 people.If I was to do something similar I would like to go as light as possible.

>>27637311>>27637365thats one thing i envy you us guys, you have this big continent where everything speaks your language and you dont have to fuck around with visa/country regulations. if i ride 500miles in one direction i passed two boarders and 3 different languages.how do you get into civilization again? i would just never talk to anyone till some coyotes tear me apart or i ran out of fuel money
>>27637388As someone who lives in Canada that is so strange to think about. My province is larger than the UK and would probably cover most of western Europe. And there is basically two major cities in that whole area and one is shit not worth going to.
>>27637381When you're living off the bike, it adds up. I'd bring 75% of it again. I've gotten better at packing the tent smaller, most of the bulk is the tent, the "hipster bedroll" as I call it, actually called the Wingman of the Road. It's a tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, and groundsheet all in one and it takes up the whole rear rack. Saddlebags 15L each, left side contained a week's worth of shirts, socks, underwear, one long sleeve as a warming layer, one pair of shorts to wear at camp or while I washed my riding jeans, a small towel, and a small toiletries bag. Right side was rain gear, water and some Clif bars and sandals. Backpack strapped to seat was more water and an emergency toolkit. Big tank bag was gloves and maps. Keep in mind it's a not a big bike, either.>>27637388I checked into a motel and brought out the shitty old tablet I brought along and fired out 40+ job applications. Bombed a couple interviews but got one that fit perfectly. I actually don't work at the place that hired me anymore, but I left them on good terms.

>>27637407>left side contained a week's worth of shirts, socks, underwearI guess if you wanted to hobomax one could cut down on the clothes, and get a small lightweight tent/ bedroll/ sleeping bag, The food, water and tools seem mandatory.
>>27637381>If I was to do something similar I would like to go as light as possible.nta but i use ultralight camping gear- bivvy, tarp, bag and pad. there is literally no reason not to in this year of our lord 2024. inb4 price, just buy it from china
>Dang, previous owner could have fed a whole family of six with those tendiesThe nobike makes the cringest posts on here.
>>27637424That's what I was thinking as well, Wonder if you could get away with just a bivvy but the rain would probably be killer.
>>27637428nah you really need a tarp to put your gear under and to avoid getting soaked but they weigh nothing and don't take up much space
>>27637434True, Probably best to just deal with a small tent and tarp.
>>27637428>>27637424I kind of agree with you guys, do not buy a meme tent like mine unless quick setup/pack down is important to you. That's this thing's gimmick + bombproof durability. I can be in the tent in under 5 minutes if I hurry. Do not use a bivvy unless you're forced to, though. I think the best motorcycle sleep system right now is actually that Haven XL lay-flat hammock, can be set up as a hammock or can work as a tent in the middle of places like the desert with no trees.
I can feel myself extending my throttle more and more while thinking 'it is what it is'.I don't think I'm sad, but I certainly have no attachment to life.
>>27637441do a whoolie
>>27637407>wingman of the roadThat looks really good. I wish I wasn't so broke this year
>>27637438>sleep system>Haven XL lay-flat hammocklooks like a meme for people too lazy to tie a knot
>>27637446If you're in the US I'll ship you mine. I'll miss it but I want to buy either the bigger one or the Haven. Has been farted in, has not been shitted or cummed in.
>>27637451Canada? I'll cover shipping.>not cummed inWhat were you even doing out there?
>>27637455I may have posted that too soon, it's going to be summer and I want one last trip north with it in July and I don't think I could procure+ test a replacement system that was comfy in time. Sorry to blue-ball you, but sometimes it's not until you think about selling something that you appreciate it.
>>27637451I'm glad I went with the Toucan for some breathing room
>>27637460You're just racist against leafs
>>27637465Man that's huge. I can bring my hammock with tarp, tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad for less room.
>>27637470It is. There's a memory foam mat in it that can be ditched. I needed something for winter/wet weather stuff and don't like the lite tents
>>27637403thats also a reason why i find it funny when people ask what they should bring on a 200-500km ride. i always ask where they are going cause the next village with a grocery store is max 15km away here.any you can't camp here, fucking sucks.>>27637407>emergency toolkit.did you ever needed anything?
>>27637477Chain adjustment, air filter replacement, mid trip oil change at a DIY place in Colorado, hammered my shifter back into shape after I paid the price for riding like a fucking moron while dehydrated. I would reduce the toolkit size slightly but still bring it again.

>>27637576>That's a big no-no even beyond the legal aspect. A basic first aid course, a $200 pack of band-aids and a colourful card is not going to turn a youtube commenter into a licensed EMT.This x100. I would literally rather die than have an unlicensed do-gooder make their best effort to save my life. The legal aspect makes it even more icky. Trauma kits should be illegal to purchase unless you can show proof of qualification by an accredited body and annual recency of practice. My sister lost her leg in a trauma kit accident and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

This new job sucks ass. Why do they call it a "9-5" if I have to work till 6 because the 1 hour unpaid lunch meme.It's basically 9 hours a day because it's not like you can do anything for an hour inbetween.>>27637671Same. I'm going to try do food delivery or something on the bike.>>27637308Doesn't do it justice without the audio
>>27637643Dayum
>>27637660Because you have to tell everyone not to speed, so you can speed.

>>27637736EAR PLUGSjeeze already acting like grandpa after the war
I miss my old Honda Blackbird. I rode it all over the US and Canada. Why are used sport tourers so inexpensive? Yamaha FJ1300s are for sale everywhere for short money.
>>27637749>Why are used sport tourers so inexpensive?cause nobody wants to buy them
>>27637749Because the Jews have convinced everyone to buy their shitty pisstwin meme engines and now that they turned everyone gay, they're afraid of real motorcycles with real engined.
>>27637751Why? Is it because old guys prefer the comfy upright position of ADV bikes and young guys prefer lighter, faster, sportier bikes?
>>27637757yes
>>27637760They’re perfect for a young guy on a budget to tour the country with his gf. I’m no longer young and my gf is now my wife and doesn’t ride with me anymore because we can’t both get killed in one accident and leave our kids orphaned.
>>27637726imagine being Luxemburgian
>>27637757Pretty much. They're making sport tourers that bridge the gap between them and ADV bikes too. Yamaha Tracer, gsxs1000gx, Multistrada V4 RS, KTM 890 SMT. They've been gaining a lot of traction. Supermotos stance wins again for street use.
>>27637778Young guys don't have gf's anymore anon. They'd rather play vidya or suck off their male friends.
>>27637841>They'd rather play vidya or suck off their male friends.based?

which one of you faggots married her>Sawamount's celebration comment Thank you so much that I read it slowly afterwards ⁇ . GW goes on a 10-day bike trip with Nara for the first time! I took him to my favorite spot in the process of returning from Kyushu Sichuan by self-propelled, but many places I couldn't go for a time... I have to take him again!! And maybe one person will run out... ⁇ . There was a scene where I met the viewers on the road, but I would like to watch them gently and congratulate them! I think it was really nice to speak and publish ⁇ People who met . I will continue to work especially from now on, so I would like to thank you in advance.
>>27637970>dbt>marrying a woman
>>27637975I've come to the conclusion women are gay. Every woman you know most likely has sucked a dick and that's gay.
Tyre companies don't want you to know this but there is one weird trick to turn regular road tyres into track ready semi slicksFound a tyre shop 50 km from the photo, near where I was going anyway. They say that they might get fitting tyres by midday tomorrow and even gave me a car to be able to get around until then. Fuckin noice.If it works out I'll explore Franconia a bit over the next few days, if not... I'll do the same but not on 2 wheels.
>>27637985You're a madman for going on tour with those tires
>>27637988They didn't look like that when I set off, this is what 4000 km with luggage do to BT-46 (also the rear wheel may have been misaligned a bit)
>>27637990Respect
>>27637990That's crazy 4k sounds like dirt tire durability
>>27637993I'll weigh the luggage when I can but I think it's 50+ kg, so essentially a pillion's worth.When was the last time you did 4k km 2up?But yeah, I expected more too desu.
>>2763795717:15 alreadydid ride but it was kinda shit
>>27637953based shitbiker
>>27637997Last summer I did about 1.5k with heavy luggage, all camping gear etc. Didn't measure the tread but the tire looked almost brand new. Had a set of mitas e08s on it at that time.
What is a normal interval when it comes to tightening your chain slack? Ive been riding it for more than a 1000 km and it is still within parameters. Was it just tight as fuck when I bought it?
>>27637985You seem to have a lot of thread left on the sides. Maybe ride it at an angle?
>>27637957Nope. But I'm having coffee at work
I have a shitty Chinese moped and after a couple weeks torrentious rain, this happened. What's the best way of removing this rust without destroying the paint around it? Most of the rust is on elements that are painted some matte silver color, there's some on a single element that has some faux chrome paint. I'll post that below this.
>>27638063
>>27638037Depends on the chain itself, how hard you ride it and what's your personal tolerance for chain slack. Giving it a calibrated kick every ~1000 km is good practice, but you probably won't have to tighten it that often. I put a lubricated chain on about 4k ago and I've only had to tighten in once in that time, and I'm pretty sure that was just because I initially set it too loose.
>>27638063>What's the best way of removing this rust without destroying the paint around it?by throwing it in a dumpster. chinks don't do maintenance or repair and their manufacturing assumes you don't either
>>27638037once when its new after 500-1000 miles, it should stretch then never againor check it every time you change your oil
What do you guys do with spare parts and spare gear? It's starting to look like an episode of hoarders here.
>>27638073Let's assume for a moment that I do want to fix it.
>>27638080The same thing you do, unfortunately.
>>27638083Scrub with a wire brush, then paint properly, I don't think there are any shortcuts. You can also write "NEVER BUY CHINESE" somewhere in your room if you have any leftover paint.
>>27638086Alright thanks, will try
>>27638083easiest you can do is use any rust remover and spray everything metal with ptfe regularly
>>27638063Chinkshit, not even once
Saw the same dude on a sportbike again this morning!
>>27636785hello fren
/dbt/ might be full of schizos, nobikes, and aspergersbut somehow, if there's anything we all seem to agree on...its that >>27638118and there's a conscious effort to dismay anons from buying chinesegoodjob guys
>>27637979I rode around with my gf on sunday. Felt her titties pressed against me the whole time, then bent her over and blew her back out when we got home.It was decidedly ungay.
>>27638141>then bent her over and blew her back outdoes she have a slipped disc? its not a good sign if you can't even bend over without throwing your back outyou should see a chiropractor
>>27638063Evapo-rust, sand blasting, powder coating.

I'm baffled. Everyone praises Tenere, but for me it's just a shitty bingo in an utterly confusing package:- it looks like a big dual sport, but once you get stuck it is too heavy to move the way I'd move my ds & sumo bikes;- its seat appears wide and firm enough to provide the right kind of sitting comfort, but after a while I feel pressure points where I don't want to feel them;- it has cool adjustable suspension, but no matter how I adjust the shock I get an unpleasant ride on bumpy roads;- the handlebars seem to be at a perfect height when I sit on it, but when I ride my right thumb slowly goes numb as if they are too high.I begin to think that after testing remaining ADVs I'll suddenly become a supersport guy just because fuck it, I'm not satisfied with the offerings.
>>27638326Based tenere destroyer and truth of the piss twin exploding knower
I don't know about you fucking dildos but I'm going for a ride
>>27638397Have fun, use plenty of lube.
>>27638389By the way, about piss twins: every single piss twin I tried so far behaved jerky at low revs. CP2 is relatively smooth, but still occasionally unhappy under 2k.V85TT remained smooth regardless of revs.It's funny how a bike that feels ultra shaky at stoplights can be the smoothest when you ride it.
>>27636787You know that the sportster s with the 1250 makes as much power as the vrod but less weight and shorter wheelbase
Just took my R1 home from the dealer.GOD....If you don't own a 1000cc sports bike what are you even doing?
>>27636542should i ride my vstrom in a thunderstorm?
>>27638326You can find niggles with every machine, most of that sounds like skill issue or fixable with the very basic of mods.
>>27638326Crazy how subjective it is. Sure it's big and heavy but I can muscle it out of snags, I love the stock seat, the stock suspension is fine for my weight, and ergonomics were fixed with risers foe ne
>>27638429I'm scared of sport bikes. In fact I've never ridden one.
>>27637957Yessir, no new pictures tho. Windy as fuck here today
>>27638080Send it my way anon :3
>>27636718God this bike would be so beautifull if not for the headlights

How often do you guys buy new helmets?
>>27638525I told you about those option calls on bully hours bro
