Bought a brand new motorcycle and got my permit. And the fucking thing won't start. >Gsx250r>Turn key>Hit start button>Let warm up for a few minutes>Grip clutch>Use left foot to drop bike into first gear.>Let go of clutch>BIKE IMMEDIATELY FUCKING DIES. Gves a small lurch forward.It's not the kickstand thing either. What's wrong with this piece of shit? It's literally new off the showroom floor.
>>27977145ive missed you so much
>>27977145So, you stalled it? Hold the clutch lever in to start it again. If it doesn't have a clutch switch and only has a neutral switch (which I doubt), shift it back into neutral and try again.
>>27977145Working as intended.
>>27977145give it full throttle and let the clutch out completely
>>27977145Welcome back
>>27977145Are you 'letting go' of the clutch to where you can feel the clutch bite the geartrain and start to move the bike? There's something called the 'friction zone' which you have to master when starting from a stop. The friction zone of a clutch is like less than a finger's width of travel of the clutch lever on some bikes
>>27977153don't do this it creates mustard gas
>>27977145i be grippin my shit rn too ong
>>27977148>>27977159itt retards get baited
>>27977173shit I got baited because I'm a retard
>>27977178this is true
Is the XR150L really bad? People say 'hondr' but then you go look at owner reviews and they trash talk it constantly. Not even for lack of power but lack of QC
>>27977183I mean, it's just a 3rd worlder bike.
>>27977183Probably Thai-built, and it's a very old design that even if built perfectly, won't be up to the standards of modern Japanese-built.
>>27977189>>27977188So skip it and go an extra price point higher?
>>27977190Uhhh yeah, go with the bike that isn't basically a fucken pitbike.
>>27977190Unless you're a midget there is no reason to get an XR150L. If you're a regular manlet, the KLX230 is another air cooled tractor that's kinda short people friendly. Yamaha XT225/250 same thing. If you're like 5'10 or higher, get a water cooled 250-400. Dualsports/dirtbikes are insanely easy to work on so don't be afraid of buying used as long as it isn't a clapped shitpile.
>>27977197There's a good chance he's some thirdie.
>>27977197I'm manlet tier. So Maybe the 230 or the xt250 is what I should get. >>27977201nah, I just want a pitbike. I'd love a DRZ but damn, I feel like a tiny manlet next to one.
>>27977208>nah, I just want a pitbikeThen buy a used pitbike from marketplace for $200.
>>27977208If you can one-foot it without scooching too far off of the seat, that's good enough. They're quite lite. You can also buy a converted DRZ400SM, they have shorter forks and sit slightly lower. Take some foam out of the seat. Etc.
BAGNon here representing Scuderia Suzuki.My local stealership may be a stealership, but it's a comfy stealership.
So, I got my hands on this Yamaha R7, huh? A "sportbike," they called it. More like a torture device. I'm talking about a machine that's slower than a snail on a hot plate, and about as comfortable as a medieval rack. It's like trying to race a tortoise in a marathon while wearing a straitjacket.The thing looks like a racetrack refugee, all sleek and aerodynamic and whatnot, but it's got the soul of a grocery getter. It's like trying to squeeze a Ferrari engine into a Yugo. The acceleration is about as exciting as watching paint dry, and the handling is about as sharp as a butter knife.I rode this thing out into the country, hoping to find some open road and let it rip. But it was more like a Sunday drive with grandma, only with a lot more pain. The seat is harder than a rock, and the riding position is so cramped, I felt like I was being squeezed into a vice. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.After a few miles, I started to feel like I was going to fall apart. My wrists were aching, my back was killing me, and my legs felt like they were going to fall off. It was like being tortured by a sadistic sadist.So, if you're looking for a motorcycle that's about as exciting as watching grass grow, and about as comfortable as a medieval rack, then the Yamaha R7 is your huckleberry. But if you're looking for a machine that can actually get your blood pumping without causing you physical pain, you might want to look elsewhere
>>27977115hello /dbt/ I want to get my first bike soon. Been looking at a few different options. Any thoughts or recommendations?>1995 Suzuki GS500E - €1450probably the safest and smartest option. but also the most boring .>1988 Honda XBR500 - €1750>1986 Suzuki GSX400E - €1950 (picrel)classics. I think they both look very attractive but would also come with the downsides of owning an older vehicle>2009 Kawasaki ER-6N - €3500A lot more expensive. But also comes with the benefits of owning a newer vehicle. This particular example I'm looking at is in great condition with a lot of wear parts already recently replaced.
>>27977235We gonna do this every thread now?
>>27977197I'm sad I have no DRZ400 SM
>>27977239>hello /dbt/ I want to get my first bike soon. Been looking at a few different options. Any thoughts or recommendations?Mandatory GET A GN125 comment. It may be even more "boring" than the GS500E, but it will be even less expensive and more forgiving of your first-timer fuckery, and you can at least get it new if you live in the civilized world and not some flyover corn rectangle "state".
>>27977235
>>27977216I'll see what I can do, then. Maybe the answer is to put up the 5 or so grand for one used
>>27977251idk anon it doesn't look very comfortable
The oil pressure issue on my zx6r is in fact not fixed. It was, then started doing it again. I figured something out on it today though. The oil pressure issue is load dependent, not rpms dependent. I took my gf out on it today, WOT in 3rd gear, oil light came on at 13k rpms. Before it was only really wanting to do it in 4th and 5th gear above 14k. Occasionally right at redline 3rd gear.So the extra weight with her on there loaded it up more and made it do it a lot sooner. It HAS to be WOT or it will not lose pressure.I have replaced: pressure switch, oil pump, pressure relief valve, cleaned pickup tube screen, changed oil, oem filter, disconnected crankcase vent from airbox (because WOT issue), verified correct oil level.There is no bearing material in the old filter, I cut it open. No bearing material in the pan.This is such a weird issue and not acting like a bearing clearance problem. I may try thicker oil, but I think it's time to tear it down and I might just get rid of it.
>>27977268Even for my 1.85m tall 105kg wide Sicilian ass* fed on Argentine wheat gnocchi and beef meatballs, the GN's seat is a superior feat of Japanese engineering capable of comfortably carrying it to the end of the world and back. If you are young and it is your first bike, you may be younger and lighter than I am, and you may find it even comfier than I do.* the length of two hundred and seventeen and one half barly cornes dry and rounde laid ende to ende, and the weight of one million six hundred and twenty thousand and three hundred and sixty barly cornes dry and rounde, respectively, in freedom units
>>27977280Kawasaki bad, god it
What does dbt think of the new vstrom 800's? I'm strongly considering buying one of the RE's next year as a second bike for touring. Either that, or I sell my current ride and get an africa twin...
>>27977294not that it matters since the GN was an eternal design, perfect from conception, but does anyone know what year GN anons GN was?
>>27977295Basically yeah. Feels bad man.
>>27977312just ride it out till it starts knocking, 180hp/L for 20 years is a lot dude, cant even blame kawasaki for it they did a good job
>>27977304I know, because it's mine! From the 2023 campaign, birthed in late 2022
>>27977319i meant yellow GN anon not nice and shiny GN anon. Im glad youre still here though your GN is super niec.
>>27977323Thank you anonBy the way, I managed to drive the HONDA YAMAHA SUZUKI KAWASAKI theme from Bakuon into the head of the girl I'm dating. Now I catch her whistling it now and then, and she curses me when she finds out what she's whistling.She's still too much of a pussy to ride Suki, unfortunately.
>>27977335how do you get GF?
>>27977249THIS
>>27977239I would get the GS500 or the ER6N. Probably the Kawasaki - sounds like it's been well taken care of. XBR is a parts orphan. 400 is a bit of a parts orphan tho I had a 450 and loved it.
>>27977352Beats me. Just kinda happened. Had I tried I would have failed.
>I made it into the OP Yay
>>27977367this is how it happens
I was riding about 60mph when the gearbox made some concerning clashing noise when upshifting to 5th. Got home fine without any further issues with shifting. I might not have fully shifted the bike into gear before releasing the clutch. Should I be concerned about this?
>>27977383no
>>27977383>was riding about 60mph when the gearbox made some concerning clashing noise when upshifting to 5thNever buying used
>>27977115Where is Suzuki anon with the biggest fucking sandwich I’ve seen strapped to the pillion seat?
>>27977386unfortunately, I bought it new
>>27977388still under warranty?
>>27977393I bought it in April so should be. Will call up the dealer tomorrow.
>>27977173What if I was already a retard, but realized it was bait? Am I no longer retarded? Am I a normie now?
>>27977404youre just less retarded
>>27977396You don't need to call the fucking dealer lol. You had a bad shift. Ignore the chomo obsessed with shifting and move on.
>>27977230Oof, still. coolant issues are never fun. Especially if your bike ends up playing I'm a little teappt
>>27977294Man I wish I had a GN
Bros, watch yourselves. I found out that there's a biker holocaust happening on the streets. RIGHT. NOW.Y'all need to KYS (Keep yourself safe.)

>>27977416>Y'all need to KYS (Keep yourself safe.)
Can you put Dual Sport spec tires on a Supermoto variant of a Dual Sport bike and ride it that way? There's a Supermoto KLX 300SM that's cheaper at the local dealer than the KLX 300 regular, by a bunch, almost 2K off, and I did want a KLX 250
>>27977443If I remember rightly the klx300 just uses a relocation bracket for the brake caliper so you should be good. Worst case, you need to source an 11mm master cylinder and a dirtbike sized caliper, typically from somebody else's used dirt wheels version.
>>27977446Is this true for all the KLX variants or just the 300?
>>27977145nononono you have to twist the throttle all the way THEN dump the clutch ya noob.
>>27977447The 300 is just a stroked and bored 250.
>>27977416>Y'all need to KYS (Keep yourself safe.)Hello officer? That nigger stole my sides.
>>27977451Ohh, So I could save massive money and try to find that dirtbike caliper and master cylinder. I was thinking of using the Tusk dual sport tires someone recommended a bit back
Just made it home after a hardcore ride on the way back
>>27977299Bump
>>27977299What about the tiger 800? I saw one today and they are really nice
>bikes used to be cooler
>>27977183It's not bad for what it is, which is a very affordable bike you can ride just about anywhere (except the highway). Like other anons said, it's an ancient machine and the KLX230 is going to be a lot nicer.
>>27977478YesBring back square headlights
>>27977478I don't know who started the 'motorcycles should look like Michael Bay transformers' design trend, but I hope they (Allah forgive me for saying this) stub their toe on a rock.
>>27977478You just know whoever rides that, fucks.
Is liquimoly good oil?>>27977318Bro, that engine was replaced under warranty a few years ago. FUCK Kawasaki, done with them. I wonder if the engine was actually replaced though, it's got rust on some bolts that looks pretty old.I'm going to put 20w50 oil in it and if it runs fine, then I'm selling it.
>>27977478true and real
>>27977491>I don't know who started the 'motorcycles should look like Michael Bay transformers' design trend, Did this actually start with Michael Bay transformers came out because it feels like a 90's thing that was cribbed from the retarded design decisions made around sports cars
>>27977416>the left turnerit's like zoomer kryptonite

>>27977514Thanks. Nice zx7, bro. I ordered 20w50 liqui moly. If it fixes it, I might run this engine until it's dead and then sell the bike for parts.

>>27977477I like the tiger 800's, I just prefer japanese bikes for the reliability.
I just went on a Sunday ride and had to stop for gas 5 times frHas anyone here tried putting a bigass tank on their bike that was not made for it? No one makes parts for mine but how different can it be
>>27977573>No one makes parts for minewhat bike?

>>27977575>Yamaha XT600 23L???
can i use any 530 master link on my unlabeled chain? normally i'd just order a matched one to the chain, but from what i can tell it's a mystery unlabelled oneit's currently a rivet type master on there but the chain is super dirty, i'm planning on cleaning it off-bike
can anyone ID this bike? theres a few frames with it wadded up here but only thing i can see is a square tube swingarm. looks like a suzuki sv with fairings or some shit. https://youtu.be/n4UV7_sAEBo?si=iWJTLEz79ikYMMfg
>>27977115>>r7 vs cb650 vs sv650 vs zx4rso? what's the answer? I like V-twins, AND I like Yamaha. So it's not quite clear which one is better for me.
>>27977581Ok I lied it's a xt550 but I wonder if this shit will fit if I swap the seat too
>>27977416The amount of people whom have tried to merge into me on straight roads this week alone has me paranoid.
>>27977369you should get some modern replacement led headlightif not for the increased visibility, but it would also just make your bike look better
>>27977601live a life worth dying for
>>27977592>I lied it's a xt550how dare you
>>27977608All those look like cheap chink shit
>>27977608these always look ugly
>>27977614The thing is I looked like a year ago and couldn't find any for the 600 either. I think they are the same ish frame so it would probably fit but I'm just guessing.
>>27977615everything amazon sells is>>27977623compared to a yellow faded 1980s oem one? I dont think so
>>27977626>yellow fadedits probably not even yellowed, its made of glass. thats just the halogen bulb temp you zoomer. even if it was just replace it with another oem one
ok dont replace the headlightkeep it yellow, like my wermon
>>27977624You can probably find a used one at least

I'm learning how to wheelie but I'm a squid. I've just been going to a local parking lot and doing little wheelies for like 1 second. Sometimes I get courage and do a big one but it scares the fuck out of me when the bike goes high.
>>27977658What bike? Maybe it can't wheelie at all
>>27977659It's just a 150 suzuki, it can wheelie though I've done big ones, it's just scary because I'm a pussy and think it's going to go all the way over
>>27977659>Maybe it can't wheelie at alla bike that cant wheelie literally doesnt exist, just people who cant wheelie that bike
>>279776581. stop being a squid2. stop being a pussy
>>27977658Just keep at it man, takes a lot of practice. Do it every day and after a month you'll suprise yourself at how far you've come.
Guys I'm really fucking sad about my zx6r being officially borked, can I get some F's in the chat?It's over, by the way.
>>27977689Track the 999 like Duc intended
>>27977689>just buy used bro
>>27977689ask breaded mechanic for help
>>27977601How visible is your gear and bike? Try wearing a bright/high-viz helmet at least.
>>27977702>high-vizI'd rather die actually.
>>27977693what the nigger
>>27977711his bike has herpes
>>27977693kek, sell it again
>>27977693i can almost 100% guarantee that i wouldnt have bought this bike based solely on my impression of the owner. not getting fucked on a used buy is actually very easy if you dont buy from niggers, trailer trash, zoomers, or literally anyone who comes off as a retard
>>27977723no point in even risking it, just buy new and support your manufacturer.
>>27977724they dont make the bikes im into anymore, thats like telling a guy whos into classic cars to just buy new
>>27977689what happened
>>27977280how do you know it's low on pressure? you need to tap into an oil port somewhere and verify with a gauge. you might just have faulty wiring too. kawasakis have been known to route their harnesses in spots that can rub or are too taught. it may just be the harmonics of the high load/rpm that's making it lose connection. test with a multimeter end-2-end of the circuit and pull on the harness near any visible pinch points and close to the connectors. these are steps that should be required before you did some of those repairs/mods.
>>27977280You need to make sure the oil pressure sensor is reading correctly. Maybe above a certain voltage it's fucking up. However, if it only happens when you have a lot of weight on the bike and send it hard then you could probably sell it and make it someone else's problem.
>>27977707Fool. I've worn high viz every time I've ridden I have never crashed.
I really want a triumph speed 400
>>27977689It ain't borked until there's no compression on the cylinderLiterally every other piece can be replaced. besides maybe the whole frame.
>>27977650It's more of a year difference, iirc mines a 558 and the others a 596 or some shit. It doesn't matter they both are fucking awful
>>27977235At least write it yourself instead of using redditGPT
>>27977695Does he do machine work? Because that's what I need at this point. I can do everything except for machining and (good) bodywork.>>27977734I've deduced at this point that it is worn crank bearings causing oil pressure loss under load.>>27977737Did all that already.>>27977693Dbt was actually right this time. >>27977691I'm seriously considering it. Sell the zx6, buy a new gsxr750, and track the duc.
>>27977812So I got my hands on a Venom Sportster, huh? A "Chonda" they call it. More like the best motorcycle money can buy. It's 250cc (Actually 229cc) of the best engine Honda ever made, only made by someone else because Honda doesn't make it anymore. It's seat is real leather, I don't know what it's real leather of, but it's very comfy. Orphans? Dogs? Either ways, it's Chinese "leather". It looks like a bike straight out of a 50's greaser movie. All curves with circles. A classic featherbed chassis with chrome every. fucking. place. the little hands of the slave children who built it could spray silver rustoleum. That's not the best part about it though, the best part is its price. Only $1800! It is literally one of the best bikes on the market that does 99% of what everyone wants it to do and 100% of what Harley riders do, which is cruise around town going 45 or less on five gears with a carbureted engine in 2024
>>27977831just saying, it's suuuper easy to total a bike.
>>27977831>Sell the zx6, buy a new gsxr750i like kawi a lot (zx7anon) but man, gsxr750 is pretty sweet. rode one for the first time at a track session recently and loved it
>>27977831>>27977689>let this be a reminder to all who take stiggers OFF their baikusI warned you manI WARNED TOU ABOUT THEM STIGGRRS
>>27977851Same. I love my zx6r despite the issues it's given me, but the 750 is the perfect bike. If I could only have one bike it would be a 750.I've also potentially been thinking about a new 636 anniversary, despite the problems I had with mine. My bike has a long history of squid ownership over 18 years, so I can't necessarily attribute the problem to Kawasaki quality. At least I hope not, I have a zx14 as well.I see more blown up 636's than any other bike though. 750 is the best bike, but the new 636 will have cruise control (I think) and it looks sick as fuck. Gsxr headlight since 2014 looks meh, but that's kind of a stupid thing to get hung up on
>>27977868>Gsxr headlight since 2014 looks mehYeah, I've always thought GSXR is the best looking bike from every angle except for the front kek
>>27977874I actually really like the 08-10 gsxr headlight, so I may try to find one of those. Maybe I could find one under 10k miles if I really looked.
>>27977868>gsxr750 is the perfect bikewhat makes you say that? compared to the cbr1000, (or even gsxr1000) whats the score?

So if I had to take a hunch it was probably from this year. Also here in hueland the bikes were sold as "Intruder" instead of GN so the plate on the bike is different, but it's the same bike.

Is there any price effect on bikes over winter? I really want to buy a low mileage tenere but I’m not sure if it’s better to do so before winter, during or right when the season starts. I would expect dealers want to get rid of older models near season start but I’d also think more people usually sell their bike just before winter to avoid having to store and maintain it
>car too expensive>think motorbike>don't want some arcade podracing looking thing>don't want something giant either>or dirtbike>thinkin cafe racer since I don't need long distances, just to get me to/through the cityany used cafe riders itt who can tell me what I'm getting myself into (never ridden before either)
'tona
>>27978220Literally get a GN. Cafe rice it yourself if you want that aesthetic.
>>27978194What a stupid answer
>>27978193Yes, but it looks way better. >Virago is still in production but not a 400cc v2 sportsbikeclown world
>>27978250Lurk moar
>>27978270Nah, you have to spoon-feed me :3
>>27978220Get a clapped out goldwingOr a pisstwin
>>27978220if something is labelled "cafe racer" turn three hundred sixty degrees and walk away from it on sight. it's gonna be some chopped-up clapped-out retard project that probably won't ever ride right (cuz they cut the rear frame hoop) or run right (cuz they ditched the airbox for pods).you might be referring to "standard" motorcycles - upright seating, mid or rear foot control positioning, no/minimal fairing. I think that's a good choice for a first bike and for short commuting. If you want something new (a good idea for your first bike so you can learn to ride rather than wrench) and want something with a "cafe racer" aesthetic, you could do worse than the Royal Enfield 650 twins.
>>27977591I miss the cool yamaha and honda v twin bikes so much. Also simple circle and square headlights were better than the bug shit.Anyways what type of riding are you planning on doing. If you really aren't sure what you want to do with the bike take the sv or cb. Track and/or twisties then other two.
>>27977478I have a newd for an 80s-90s bike for this aesthetic.Tempted to mess with fairings on an xr650 if it can be lowered to a comfortable height.
>>27977689F>>27977831Can you replace crank bearings on it? I know on a lil single cyl dirtbike it’s a big project but doable (split the case), but no idea how involved it is on something like a ninja.Can’t go wrong with the gsxr750 I test rode one previous summer it felt good but like you I couldn’t love the look esp of its muzzle.If you get a new zx6r im sure you know but they have a different power delivery. More power through the revs but the limiter is at like 14k so it’s less of a screamer. It is insanely fast of course but just a little different.Throttle is touchy too, the decel cutoff is annoying as fuck
>>27978220>>27978284why do so many people want their introduction to motorcycling to be a fucking cafe racer? is it instagram? our children's children will see what we've done to these 20th century shitbikes and weep
>>27978327I don't need to go fast nor do I need to go far, I just want something for like ~50 miles maybe, max. its all short distances with the occasional scenic passidk what the consensus is other than I like the look and they seem manageable to me
>>27977723yep, I bought from a nigger and regretted it. he clearly ran I without an air filter. the valve seats were destroyed. it needed a full rebuild.
>>27978327IMO it's because nearly every bike has (aesthetically) specialized into a niche and moved away from the platonic idea of "just A bike", which is one of the best ways a bike can look. if you don't like one of those niches you're SOL in most of the market"cafe racers" have the timeless clarity of purpose of a UJM hidden underneath them and the children yearn for the A Bike>>27978329when I hear "cafe racer" I think: clip-on bars (bad ergonomics if you're in traffic or going slow), hard seats (miserable time if you're going further than the cafe), shitty reliability.Are there specific bikes you're looking at? That'd help narrow things down
i really wan this thing but me no anything about momobikes ; (
>>27978329you are mistaken, as the other anon pointed out they are almost always older Jap bikes that were in poor condition and some genius thought to add clubman bars and pod filters and cut the subframe off. they have dated brakes and handling and are more uncomfortable than a sport bike because it was cobbled together without much thought to anything other than looks. get a 250 made in this century with disk brakes instead, your local fb marketplace should be flooded with options
>>27978341you can learn to ride and maintain this in one day and they're fun, don't be scared
>>27977965Cannondale tried it in the 90's ended up being heavier and less stiff.>>27978176I bought the fortnight meme suit now I ride whenever the fuck I want.
>>27978329Honestly will shill those chinese cafe racers and cb300 for that because those are the closest to the look.>>27978340Because people want a normal looking ujm but everything is weird, stylized, and have sport outlines for the tank.>>27978345Older bikes they also probably fucked up when modding too.
>>27978353NTA but I like the one piece option because I'd like to be able to zip it and stow it and have normal clothes underneath for being out and about. anything like this that doesn't cost >6 hundo? I know of aerostitch but those are like 1200 lol
>>27978340>clip on barsidk what that means as I'm new to everything bike-related>hard seats that sounds like any bike problem and any rider's choice to customize with a new seat, isn't it
>>27978368clip-ons are very low-set handlebars that "clip on" to the front tubes of the bike. when set up right the idea is to let you really tuck into the bike to improve aerodynamics at high speed, but that's not very comfortable at low speeds or just cruising around (which sounds like what you want to do).when NOT set up right (like on the vast majority of cafe racer projects) they don't let you tuck in but they also don't let you sit comfortably upward, leading to this horrible hunched posture where all the weight is on your wrists (bad for control and pretty painful) for no performance gain whatsoever.while you can get a softer seat, for many older bikes they're very hard/expensive to get ahold of, and if the "customizer" has cut up the frame the stock seat might not fit at all.
>>27978380forgot pic. this is the 'bad' posture.
>>27978368you are retarded. go watch a youtube video other than muh cafe build episode 278, and educate yourself
>>27978385He's not retarded he's been marketed to! many such cases these days. have a little mercy, we will heal him
>>27978081>>27978193That frame looks awfully similar to the GS500's frame.
>>27978380In addition to this bike geometry is set up for riders of a certain height and limb length and hardly anybody that customizes their ride takes this into account especially when it's their first set of modifications
>>27978387>gets explained EXACTLY why cafes are uncomfortable and not good beginner bikes in detail by multiple anons>still says shit seat is "any bike problem and riders choice" nah certified dirtbrain or 17 year old
>>27978081>>27978193>>27978395Can we technically create it again?>virago engine>mounted on gs500 frame>slap on some fzr 600 fairings
>>27978398Its even an issue on stuff thats oem like a cafe. W800 is as close to a cafe stock and people manage to make it even less comfortable going the rest of the way with it. Cafe rebel is kinda ok though since the 250s design forces a posture thats more like a normal ujm when trying to mod it.
>>27977983good, if she hadnt stabbed him, i would have
>>27978395>>27978410Suzuki Sold that frame to Hyosung, so maybe.
>>27978341Looks so sick in the green. I want one too now :(
>>27978382What do you mean he can't tuck?What changes to that setup would you recommend?I'd say lower rearsets
I fucked it up fitting my old phone handler. Can this create rust? Should I put some electric tape over it or maybe spray some kind of paint?
>>27978440I'd do lower rearsets too.He can tuck his head into the tank, but he'd have his arms chicken-winged out, which ruins the ergonomics of the tuck and doesn't help much with aerodynamics. I can do the same with my normal upright bars, it's just not comfortable or tight (and the whole point of clipons is to make the tuck more sustainable and tighter).
Is a dr650 with 20k miles for 2k a decent deal
>>27978368>>hard seats >that sounds like any bike problem and any rider's choice to customize with a new seat, isn't itPart of the stupid café ricer aesthetic is the low seat that turns out to have little to no filling and is thus hard as a rock. If you don't want a thin hard seat, you don't want cafe ricer aesthetics, and (as nobody really does cafe races anymore) you don't want a cafe rice bike.Just literally get to your closest Suzuki Center and ask to sit on a brand new GN125.
>>27978087The 270 degree ptwin is unironically one of the best engines in production. I hate sucking yamicock but even I'll concede that the cp3 is basically the perfect engine in terms of street use, power, price, top end speed, and general usability. It's extremely well balanced and the mt09 is a fucking blast of a bike.
>>27978395Suzuki stole it
How fast do you guys go on rocky hard pack and fire roads like this? I feel like anything over 35mph and I'll drop the bike.

So I replaced my clutch and then went on a couple rides not more than 400 miles total and I noticed it was slipping pretty bad after that longI found that while I adjusted it well during the work, I guess it wore in and the cable was holding it openI adjusted it again but the grab point is all the way at the last few mm, though it was kinda like that at first when I replaced it tooDid I fuck it up

DBT, I have the need for speed. Looking to buy a piss missile before the euro gov bans all forms of fun. It's a toss up between a Busa and a GSXR1000. My riding is:>50% Commuting/daily errands>25% Twisties>25% Weeks long touringBusa seems more practical but I have to do a kickstand 180° spin to fit the bike into where it lives so the lighter gsxr seems better.What do we think?
>>27978946Maybe spend some money on your parking situation instead of a $20,000 new bike
My younger brother wants a dual sport bike that he can ride “mostly on trails” but can also do 80+mph. He sent me a bunch of 450cc motocross bikes that he could “make street legal”.I told him to lower his top speed expectations and look for a lighter trail oriented dual sport.The KLX230s look pretty good for him and he can buy new in his area for $3500. Keep in mind he hasn’t ridden a bike since he rode a Honda XR80 as a kid. I’m not way off base am I?
>>27978946budget?I'd consider a multistrada budget being no issue.
>>27978953Ain't buying new bud. The solution is a new property.>>27978980It's got to look like a sports bike.
>>27978959>450cc motocross bikes that he could “make street legal”i guarantee they already make factory street legal versions of whatever he sent, but youre right about the top speed expectations. doing 80+ mph for long isnt fun even on something capable of it like a 701
>>27978991>It's got to look like a sports bikeCBR250R
>>27978946>kickstand 180° spin to fit the bike into where it livesor ... you know ... just push it in in reverse?
>>27978995did you not hear he said he has the need for speed
>>27979008What more speed do you need than livery inspired by Nikki Hayden's famous motoGP bike?
>>27979017youre right, my bad
>>27978946a lot of busa bros modify their stands to secure the bike better, i dont know if they 180 spin that great. maybe give both bikes a test ride and see for yourself. the stand issue applies to All busa gens btw

>>27979055Bikes are lazy.
>>27979055Probably not extended all the way.Though I have had a 690 enduro fall over from the wind while covered. I don't think it would've fallen over without the wind catching the cover.
>>27979055side stand doesnt go forward enough and the engine was ideling. Busa bros cut the thing on the stands part deeper that allows the stand to move more forward to the front wheel
In my country learners are only allowed 250cc. It's for like 9 months then you can drive anything. So I brought a 150cc because my brother had one and it was cheapI've been driving for 5 weeks now and it's just becoming insufferable. It's top speed is 120km/hr. It's only fun in the hills. I want something FASTER.
>>27979072Get a better country while you’re at it
>>27979080No. I deserve to suffer.
>>27979088Well all life is suffering Might as well learn to wheelie or do burnouts if you’re stuck for a while on it
>>27978703so like i dont need to oil it at all? or i need to at least oil the o rings? surely they need some help to not dry out and broke
>>27977611That mountain looks very Mount Chiliad from gta5
>>27979095I think the o-rings will be fine, you still have to oil the chain from outside so it doesn't rust, but it's not mission critical like with an unsealed chain. Basically you don't have to feel as bad when you put off doing maintenance because you're lazy.
>>27978575Based, me2
>>27979023Fml. Makes the gsxrThou look better.In all fairness the gsx750f I rode had the same problem with the leg not going forward enough. You can almost see in the pic
>>27979072> It's top speed is equal to the max speed limit in the country> I want something FASTERI will never understand speedfags.
>>27979148they are still neat machines and its a minor modification so i wouldnt give up on them tbdesu
>>27979155Who the hell only drives or rides the speed limit? I can be going 20mph over and getting passed on both sides on some highways.
I found what would be a good place to ride electric motorcycles if they weren't so expensive. It's a part of the world where all the roads are twisty, almost none are divided, exceeding 150km/h would require MotoGP lean angles, and all the cute little towns have "please ride quietly" signs. If I win the lotto I'll buy a vacation house in the area and keep a few emotos in the garage, so I can ride my big touring bike there (or, forgive me, truck+trailer if I'm hauling a family) and use the quiet bike(s) for local rides.
>>27979072150cc can be frustrating. 250cc can OK, fun even, if the manufacturer bothered to tune it. 373cc is the sweet spot.
>>27979182Just get a Ninja 7 you fag. It's half the price, has an EV mode for those towns, and it can self recharge without plugging in.
>>27978341They're like bicycles with engines.>>27978220What's your budget and location?
>>27978582I'd say it will be more boring than the original. The 400 engine is the fun part, that's what makes it stand out.FZR 600 had a steel frame and it's not the raciest engine. If you want a lighter 600, just get some other more modern/ racier bike.Also, goes for all that trouble and doesn't put a fork from the FZR 600 in which would give him bigger rotors.
>>27978341They're very fun. If you've ever ridden an ebike with a no-pedal throttle mode it's like that only without the pedals and an engine that can keep up with traffic or climb hills.
>>27978582hard to say without directly comparing the twos weight distribution and suspension load. even with "upgrades" and an engine swap, whoever did it is obviously not a world class engineer with a multi million dollar team behind him using controlled production parts
>>27979171In Europe there are speed cameras and cops everywhere. You can't fight tickets, cops are even more scum than American ones, license (which you'll lose after a couple offences of going 20 over) cost at the very least 1k USD equiv. and it takes a lot of time to get one back. Generally Europeons are poor and there's this mentality of subservience/bowing to authority. I spent a month riding motorcycles in Colorado in 2023, not caring what speed I was going and every morning I wake up thinking about it just before the suicide thoughts creep in. I wish I was American. But yeah very few people speed in Europe.
>>27979222>very few people speed in Europe*laughs in Polish*
>>27979222just do it on back roads, its that easy, i went 40 over on my commute to work
>>27979222>In Europe there are speed cameras and cops everywherespeak for your own country, Pierre
>>27979267I mean probably not in eastern Europe but are well really gonna talk about third world countries? UK, France, Italy, Spain and Germany/Austria
>>27979283bro surely you are just baiting or retarded, but do you seriously think that in a country that produces the most stable vehicles at speed and has no speedlimits on over 50% of the highway system that people do not speed?also>UK, Italy, Spain>not third world countriesrofl mao
>>27979295UK really downgraded themselves.
How do you find a good mechanic? There is a guy local with a great average review score, but he doesn't have a huge amount of reviews. Seems like a rural guy that runs a garage off his property.

How do I know I am not having a grass is always greener situation when I consider that I half wanted a cb300 over a rebel 300? I didn't like how the cb sat and it really felt like I needed a windshield or something but I liked how it looked. Is going from a cruiser to a sportier seated bike easy?

>>27979412but then you dont have your motorcycle at your destination
My friend that had a high side the on Saturday doesn't want to ride anymore. He wants to focus entirely on boxing and I cheered him for his decision.Did you guys have a friend that once was a passionate rider, then completely walked off motorcycling?
>>27979417Do you really need a motorcycle at your destination if its purpose it to just munch boring miles between destinations?
>>27979423Why are you here?
>>27979427hes right >>27979423you're in the wrong thread.
>>27979423>Do you really need a motorcycle at your destination if its purpose it to just munch boring miles between destinations?There are literally thousands of miles of untwisty highways across grasslands between me and my destination twisties sometimes, you small-souled europoor.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Plains
>>27979395> grass is always greenerI think this will always be the case, unless you have every single bike you like in your garage.> I didn't like how the cb sat but I liked how it lookedThe way I'm able to suppress this feeling is by renting a bike for a day/week. Expensive, but if you find time and can push yourself to spend 4h+ on a bike at a time, you might end your ride with an excited "Good lord I'll never have to touch this bike ever again!" and stop lusting over it.
>>27979418I'm gonna be friends with a pussy if there's no riding involved
>>27979445*not
>>27979439> small-souledI'm just pragmatic like a honda.And have as much soul as a honda.
>>27979450I go fast across the plains on a Honda. You're just gay.
>>27979460I can go fast on it as well, but I pick more interesting routes instead.
>>27979447>>27979445He's a good guy and a nice friend, it just happens that he likes boxing more than motorcycling, and in order to be a pro he can't get injured AT ALL, outside the sport.I thought I found a bestie for riding, then this was his decision, and as a friend I'll support his decision.He has set his goals, he wants to reach that, meanwhile I ride for fun until I die in an accident, no goals whatsoever, no good reasons to live long for.
>>27979474>and in order to be a pro he can't get injured AT ALL, outside the sport.That's why I decided not to get a motorcycle in high school, it would have interfered with football. I ended up starting senior year so totally worth it. I do wish I'd started in college though.
>>27979474good points and wise decision, bike life ain't for everybody
>>27979492So everyone that rides technically doesn't mind dying early and suddenly?To me dying would solve a lot of problems
>>27979498to be on the outside of a cage instead of the inside at 100mph means to be in control of your life (and death) and to spit in dangers face
If you're a leaf with shitty batteries, here's a good deal

The GSX-S1000GT/GX are runnung a GSXR engine from 2005. The DR-650 and DR-Z400 are so old they're still *carbureted*.Welcome to Suzuki.
