Bless you anon
what are you supposed to do if you're riding your bike and some hot but baka girl is flashing you?
>>27979956Pull up next to them at the next light
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

>>27980164Congrats dude. Enjoy the new toy!
Do these look like junkyard markings dbt? I'm starting to think that my zx6r got a junkyard motor instead of a new motor. I pulled the valve cover off tonight to inspect for anything weird inside the head. Nothing, but I checked the two valves that were in the correct position and they were out of spec. There is a number stamped on the back of the engine that will correlate to your vin if you call Kawasaki and have them run it. There is a number on the back of my engine.I don't know how Kawasaki does it, but I know the Japanese car manufacturers do not put vin numbers on warranty replacement new engines or transmissions.I'm betting this is a junkyard motor and it's just hogged the fuck out at this point.
Mid practice wheelies
>>27980290Feels like I'm about to loop it every time but I'm still 20-30 degrees off balance point. Just gonna keep incrementally until I can hold it for 10s
>>27980287It could be, who else would write in there?
>>27979934Where's the bakuon link? What edition is this?? I won't be posting my bike until these question have been answered
>>27980287happens. my buddy had his jeep motor replaced by the dealership under warranty and it sharted out a couple months later, ran the vin and it came back to a totaled Pacifica kek
>>27980287no idea really man. my friend bought his wife a brand new BMW 310 to learn on and it had markings like that on it in places. no idea what they mean.
>>27980293keep your foot over the rear brake and practice using that to lower the front. after a while of practicing that you wont feel so scared if it goes too far cause you will have the instincts to control the decent.
>>27980297The factory, maybe. But I doubt it.>>27980311Fucking kek. Does not surprise me at all. I've seen all kinds of shit happen like that. The PO had no reason to lie to me about it 6 months later, and I even gave him an out, saying I didn't remember if he specified a junkyard or new motor. Perhaps the dealer pulled the old switcheroo on him.>>27980312Hmm. See that's why I question it. I don't know if that's a factory or junkyard marking.
>>27980308Ssshhhh R6 it's ok this is a safe space
I overpaid for my bike and I'm still asshurt. New from dealership so its pretty much going to run forever but I'm still kicking myself.Fun though, once it stops raining so much ill ride it more.
>>27980178Trad place to store spare master links is on your keychain. They work fine for me but I take care to fully seat the retaining clip.
>>27980287Ask on a model-specific forum where others can just look at theirs. Writing on components isn't unusual in hidden areas.
Your bike may be fast but can it shoot rockets?
>>27980393my bike is the rocket and i am the warhead. try surviving me launching helmet first through your windshield

>>27980417I cock my cock a an angle like a mortar and fire modified sperm shells at ur moms face.
>>27980287>I'm starting to think that my zx6r got a junkyard motor instead of a new motor.you think they would put a NEW engine into an old bike? Where would they even get one from?

>>27980431>yamaha morphous It's so disgustingly beautiful.
>>27980424Because it was a warranty/recall job at the dealership, it's done all the time.It's over, by the way
>>27980424I misread that at first. They'd get it from Kawasaki.

I wanna buy picrel as my first bike because I'm a tremendous retard that insists on 3cyl, how cooked am I

>>27980290>>27980595Is there any smoothness to letting out the clutch for a wheelie? Or do you just pop it?
>>27980585>first bike>not a GN125Really anon?
>>27980598Just build revs and let go of the clutch completely
>>27980598depends on the bike
>>27980598Watch my clutch hand when i pop it upCan compare the speed to the gear shift at the end of the webmIts not really a dump but its not slow either
>>27979981Suzuki GN125: The Siesta-Enhanced Classic on Two Wheels (Now with a Seat You’ll Never Want to Leave)The Suzuki GN125 is the go-to bike for anyone who values simplicity, comfort, and, most importantly, a ride that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Assembled in Argentina by siesta-empowered workers using Chinese parts, this retro icon offers tried-and-true Japanese engineering that’s lasted decades without needing an update.Powered by a modest 11 horsepower, the GN125 won’t have you breaking speed records anytime soon. But who needs to rush when you’re barely burning through any gas? Its lightweight build and gentle pace mean you can cruise for hours without worrying about frequent fuel stops. And let’s be honest, ABS is overkill when you’re barely exceeding school-zone speeds.Where the GN125 really shines is in its dashboard. Equipped with neutral and gear indicators, a tachometer, and even individual blinker indicators for each side, it’s the perfect amount of tech to keep you informed without being overwhelmed. The trip odometer is a nice touch too, even if it’ll take a while to rack up significant miles.But let’s talk about the seat, arguably one of the bike’s best features. Upholstered in classic foam and leather, it’s so comfortable that your morning commute feels more like a lounge session. Designed for maximum comfort, it perfectly complements the relaxed riding posture that’ll keep you grinning mile after mile.Sure, availability might be a bit limited (don’t expect to see it at every stealership), but that just makes the GN125 more special. With its laid-back design, exceptional fuel economy, and seating comfort that rivals your favorite armchair, this humble bike is perfect for those who want to slow down and enjoy the ride—one siesta at a time.

>>27980463Honda crf 300l. It's fun, getting used to riding on the backstreets before I hit the mainroads, mostly downshifting I'm trying to get used to when I go into turns. It's fun for sure. Looking around for some dirt to play on too.

>>27980891So cool! Is motorcycling big in Poland?
>>27980878It's kind of a regular rain suit with a gimmick that's probably also more difficult to make right. If you have a cool jacket you don't want to cover up, it probably already has a waterproof lining.Also, pic related.
>>27980878I usually just wing it and ride wet. I wear clothes that dries pretty quick anyway
>>27980920> If you have a cool jacket you don't want to cover up, it probably already has a waterproof lining.True for textile, but leatherfags need some external waterproofing.>>27980927It must be good to live in a warm climate.

>>27980965
>>27981001Perfect.
I was planning on making proper rubber gaskets and welding an intake pipe with a restrictor valve, but then I found a caulk gun
>>27980451I own the 300. Word of advice for modifications, the oem seat is a bit too thin for most people, the sprockets are undersized for all of them because honda was trying to make up for torque on the 300 and reused the same sprockets on everything else, and if you plan to mount a luggage rack that attaches to the top of the rear fairing I would suggest the tail ones instead.
>>27980913not really and im not polish, close enough tho
>>27980913kc is korun czesky, Czech crowns
>>27980585I own one. It IS a great bike. It ISNT a beginner bike. Being a tremendous retard is not funny, anon, your fucking life is on the line. Do the time on some shithouse 400-650cc for a year or two (riding in winter) and then splash out on a big boy ride once you know what you're doing.
>>27981041Also, being a no-bike, you can't justify an obsession with any motorcycle engine configuration as you have 0 experience. FYI, stock/cat pipe on cp3 sounds like shit compared to most 650cc 270 ptwins with a factory exhaust.
Can someone post the picture of Pepe on the mini bike with his fren?

>>27981001>Desmodromic valves are closed with a separate, dedicated cam lobe and lifter instead of the conventional valve springs used in most internal combustion engines in consumer vehicles. Nice
>>27981057You should have purchased an mt09 if you like ugly bikes with cp3 engines. Would have saved you many dollars and many hours that whatever you put into this cursed machine.

>>27981001Patrick Bateman: "Do you like Suzuki motorcycles?"Paul Allen: "I guess they're okay."Patrick Bateman: "Their early models were a bit underpowered for my taste, but when the GN125 came out in the late '80s, I think Suzuki really found its niche in the commuter market. The bike is a perfect balance of form and function, with its classic UJM (Universal Japanese Motorcycle) styling, and a 124cc engine that delivers a smooth, reliable performance. It's a bike made for the urban environment—compact, lightweight, and simple. It may not have the aggressive power of a sportbike, but it has an undeniable charm and practicality. What I appreciate most is its minimalistic design and its clear, no-frills efficiency."[Bateman walks over to a parked GN125, admiring it.]Patrick Bateman: "In fact, the GN125 was instrumental in cementing Suzuki's reputation for reliable commuter bikes. Sure, it doesn't scream performance, but that’s the beauty of it. It's a bike for the discerning rider who values functionality over flash. It’s more than just transportation, it’s a statement—practicality as a form of rebellion against the excesses of modern consumer culture. The GN125 isn’t trying too hard, and that’s what makes it so refreshing."
>>27981076[Bateman picks up a motorcycle chain and swings it nonchalantly.]Paul Allen: "Hey, Bateman, what's with the chain?"Patrick Bateman: "Oh, this? Just making sure the bike’s secure." [He chuckles, still holding the chain.] "You know, people often overlook bikes like the GN125. They get caught up in all these larger, faster machines, but they don't realize the value of simplicity, the pleasure of something that does exactly what it's supposed to without all the unnecessary complications."[Bateman approaches Allen, slowly.]Patrick Bateman: "The GN125 is so well-engineered, most people don’t appreciate the smoothness of the ride or the ease of maintenance. It’s an icon, Paul—a commuter’s dream. And you know what they say about icons... Hey ”[He swings the chain.]Patrick Bateman: "TRY GETTING PREMIUM AT THE PUMP NOW, YOU FUCKING SQUID!"

>>27980293I haven’t had the balls to attempt wheelies on my Tenere. I do them on a TTR-110 and WR250R. I think they’d actually be easier on the Tenere in sone ways but the consequences of crashing are much higher.

Are there any sport bikes like the GPZ from Top Gun that are fast and not that leaned over, but don’t have the dorky aesthetics of sport tourers?Also, how do normies ride sport bikes without tank grips? Seems like a bunch of undue stress on your wrists that will translate into worse riding.

36 year old dude and not thrill seeking just like to cruise the backroads around me. Started riding in spring this year and did MSF then got a used hunter 350 (single cylinder turd) but it gets me around. To be honest I am content with my ride even if it is a royal poofield but part of me wants a slight upgrade next year. Should I indulge in that feeling? What is a good second bike for an older non thrill seeker. 98% pavement riding. 0 freeway. Was looking at the moto guzzi v7 or perhaps a triumph speed twin 900? Or I try a new style and get a rebel or eliminator for cruiser? I can pay cash for whatever as long as its $12K or less. Harley fags need not apply.
I installed some new fork springs and preload adjusters on the tw200. It went from stock (.50) to stiff (.70) which is supposed to be a 40% difference. I also used 15w fork oil instead of 10w because I weigh about 180 pounds. Overall, it was one of the best upgrades I've done so far for about $150. I also installed a chain roller and it's helped a lot with my chain tension problems since I went to a 60 tooth rear sprocket.thanks for reading my blog and have a safe ride

>>27981080Nothing, if it keeps the shitter in place after taco bell then it'll hold on to some intake pipes
>>27980178This is like an advertisement for charging your phone every night.
>>27981143You could try better versions of your current bike from Yamaha or Kawasaki. They are still entry level budget wise, but that leaves money for either riding or upgrading the parts like suspension if you want after a while.
>>27980290Nice wheelie but also don't do wheelies if you value the integrity of your spine and motorbike.
>>27981174same. reading up on how to do some kind of maintenance and getting the "this tool makes this 3 hour job a 10 minute job!" is some crushing deja vu. worst part is if you do it RIGHT you won't need the tool for thousands of miles at least
>>27981199Can you suggest the models from each manufacturer that are better versions of my current bike? I see the w800 or the rs series. Are those what you mean? For yamaha is it the xrs?
>>27981201Just wait until we get to newer bikes.At least per the seller of my new-to-me f850gs I'll need a $300 bmw motorbike specific OBDII scanner to be able to reset major service maintenance minders. It isn't even a fancy valved engine, still uses shims and rockers.

>>27981248I had the choice of rebel 300 and w800 for the same price and took the rebel. The 300 is fine but the cb is probably a better choice for speed and the chassis is better meant for it. 300 has been a great bike for me though since it is the first thing ive owned period. Also the extra 7mph top speed for 2k more in the used market just didn't feel worth it with the 500s.>>27981219As much as I like the vstar for looks christ that thing needs to be remodeled heavily.

>>27981308Ah yeah the 1100 suffered the same problem as the 500 and 300. Theres an identity crisis between all of them. The 300 and 500 are held back by gearing, sprockets and tune, sprockets are the same on the 3 and 5 for some reason. 1100 basically just exists for people wanting dct, it doesn't have much in common with the 3 and 5. 300 can't pullmuch when your going past 70mph though people don't have this issue on the bigger engine. I want a magna... Or honda to bring back vf and magna. Hell even vt would be nice.

>>27981208Now thats a hot wing
I need a tail tidy desperately>>27981335central, if u get my drift. I can't even guess what part you're in based on your pic so my guess is NoVa since it isn't rural
>>27981333>bring back the vf and magnayeah that doesn't seem like the direction they're going given the bugbike trend still being the new normal™
>>27981354>NoVa Ewww, never that. I'm in the 7cities area
>>27981364endeeyun :D
>>27981367All poo, no loo
>>27981364may god smite all of NoVa and her vassals ALHAMDULILLAH and revive Virginia from good southwest stockverification not required
>>27981370gorg hendee mannufaggurin :D
>>27981362>VT sport bikes dead despite shadow still being sold>Cb650 is supposed to be the modern hobda ujm>VF and magna are both dead>Everything else gets parts bined to fill the lineup thoughWhy must it be the way it is... At least they brought the scl back kindof but without the thumper as an option.
>>27981057is this yours?
>>27981374Yeee. NoVa 110% fucks up all of the surrounding area. I don't even like going there for cons anymore
>>27981398How does it compare to nc con scene? We have been fucked up or just dead randomly through years from randome influxes of people flying in.>>27981328Different anon, if you are short the answer is always yes.
>>27981423The nova cons? They're ok. Lot more commercial now. I travel a lot for cons but stopped going up there. Dragon Con is where its at. But love the one out in roanoke. Max comfy
You now remember the smell of warm engine oil
>>27981457Mmm, I wanna drink it.
>>27981268Of course tranny jannies delete it
>>27981457i remember the smell of absorball instead
>>27981137My oiled leather boots pretended to be waterproof until I got under a real rain.
I love Yamaha so fucking much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3daFWvXe3Hs
>>27981463Same. What's the worst that could happen?
>>27981291>>27981316Which do you like the most?What differences between them?
>>27981477One was a 750 and the other was a 1k. Liked both for different reasons
>>27981143>I am content with my ride ... but part of me wants a slight upgradeWhat does this part yearn for?
I don't understand why I don't want to get an NC750. It offers everything I want, but something in me actively avoids this bike. My gut tells me to get other, objectively worse and more expensive bikes.
>>27981527Make sure you get a manual. The nc750 is, in my opinion, a better overall option over a t7 or trannyslap, which are "offroad" larp adventure commuters people take 40 seconds off pavement for a few pictures. Just know that the nc750 is a commutercycle.
Buying new right now seems like a sucker's game
Buying used right now seems like a sucker's game. Bikes under 5kkm cost almost the same as new.

>>27980846Its a 3d printed throttle lock
>>27979934Hell yeah, gay companions.
>>27981576I don't get it
>>27981579I just found a load of popular mechanics from 1920-1948, and it's basically documenting harley's marketing dynamic. From the silen grey fellow, to motorcycling keeping ladies decent with a special sidesaddle modification, to sending motorcycles to defeat hitler, to becoming a clothing brand.
>>27981552lmao where? i see bikes listed with 1-2k miles for a couple grand under MSRP all the time, and thats not even including taxes and dealer fuckery of the new bike
>>279815851.6k miles
>>27981574pls share files, need me a "crooze control" for da R1
>>27981540>t7 or trannyslap, which are "offroad" larp adventure commutersAre you fucking retarded? Honest question. The T7 is without question the best production dual sport you can buy.
Does quad lock really help with the vibrations or a cheapo holder will do?
>>27981593https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=throttle+lock&page=1
I think we need an east coast or south east meetup in the winter months to keep the spirit alive when every fairweather rider puts their bike away. I've been watching these jap youtube motorcycle vlogs where they just tour around checking out good eats regardless of equipment or weather, this is the way.
>>27981584What's gay about a man and woman on a motorcycle?
>>27981597holy fuck didnt think that would exist there, cheers
>>27981598There's lots of ppl in dbt from the east and south east
>>27981595ive been using a cheapo amazon MTB phone holder with no damping for years on a 600 and ive never had any problems. i think it depends on what phone you have (pixel 7)
>>27981594A 450lb bike is not the best dual sport. But I agree T7 is a lot more capable than that anon was giving it credit for.
>>27981595if you have a ram mount already, just get the ram antivibration mount.I printed my own out of 95A tpu.
>>27981604I have a pro 8, and google released a warning shortly after it was released about mounting on motorcycles and it damages the stabilized camera.Some Iphones too. so it really is a case of both things, a paint shaker bike and a phone with OIS. i.e. iphones on harleys.
>>27981595>>27981604>>27981612I've read never to use ram mounts with dr's or big singles in general but I didn't read that in time and rode across country with my phone in one and my phone wasn't harmed. I just have a basic Samsung Galaxy s20 or 21 I can't recall>>27981602I know that's why it needs to happen! I would organize it myself but I've never done anything like that and am not sure how it would turn out, or if there would even be a turnout
>>27981594Go ride a t7 and a ktm 500 exc-f 6 days edition side by side on any offroad surface and report back. >>27981610It's a large larp bike intended to pretend to offroad on. Yes, it can survive some light trail riding on par with what farmers have done on klr 650s for the past 20 years, but it's nowhere in the same dimension as a true dual sport.
>>27980290>>27980595Cool wiillllies bros just got back from squidding around I need to make some new webms tho
>>27981624>ktm 500 exc-f>dual sport.
>>27981584Post more please. >>27981585NTA, but probably somewhere in Europe.Swamp Germany has 4 year old SV650's with 20K Km going for 1.7k below new.
It been a good September
>>27981644lol nigga your ass is off like you’re MotogpYour head is somewhere in the middle And your bike is near vertical
>>27981604>>27981618My phone is not fancy or new and my motorcycle but I am on a single cylinder>>27981612Not needing a specific case is cool but the ram system seems kind of flimsy
>>27981647My lap times better than yours
>>27981639Correct.
>>27981655lol your ass is still way off but your head is up center and your knee ain’t dragging keep practicing you’ll get it eventually
>>27981624The T7 is capable of much rougher terrain than it has any business being capable of. Nobody is buying a T7 to go do miles and miles of single track. It’s an amazing bike to go anywhere. I’ll ride an hour north on the highway, get off and ride paved backroads that turn into dirt roads, then hit some class VI roads (old roads no longer maintained) and then highway back home all in one day. I have a WR250R for more aggressive off roading but it doesn’t have the range of the T7 because fuck riding that thing on the highway for 2+ hours. If they aren’t your thing that’s cool but it’s bullshit to allege that nobody is taking them off-road for more than a few minutes.
>>27981658NTA but let's see your track pics I want to see how it's done
>>27981622I'll just go to regular bike meet ups. Doesn't sound like something I need dbt for
>>27981666roast away lads
>>27981658How bout this one I think it looks cool
>>27981668Oh, it's the troll
rate my bike
>>27981668Do you have more pics or just that overused one?You talk too much
>>27981655I'm not color blind I can see the green sticker jej
>>27981642I found a Harley for $45.
>>27981644Whole ass technique Nice
>>27981662How's it compare to a V-Strom 650?
>>27981669Bro I looked like a gump the first two YEARS I did track days and body position really doesn’t matter so much at track day speeds even in A group. There’s a guy who looks like Kevin Schwantz and he’s one of the fastest regulars I see. Anyways it’s all about having fun roasting tires and improving just giving you shit don’t mind me
>>27981679wrong image.There was a time you could a afford a whole motorcycle with just four hours wage's as a cobbler.
>>27981685Tfw you don't know how your body postion looks because >no cheap tracks>no money for motogp tracks>don't want to get phone stolen recording a turn
>>27981686>45 bucks for a USED "motorcycle" (basically just a bicycle with an engine)>dude brags about 21 bucks in FIVE HOURS which means its an exceptional amount and not a very trustworthy claim.
>>27981677He's trolling
>>27981684I owned a 2012 v-strom 650 for years. Both are great bikes. The Tenere is better off road and it isn’t even close.
Good afternoon. I just bought a OEM muffler for my CRF300L and it's so much quieter and didn't lose any performance. Finally I can ride it around town without feeling embarrassed. Slipons are so stupid, especially for a bike that sounds like a lawnmower either way. You don't need to be making all that noise.
>>27981647thats where im at right now too lol. my ass is off and im dragging knee but my upper body/head are still in line with the bike most of the time. I'm trying to focus on my body position and braking zones more than anything this season
>>27981662>soft dirt and some water.Perfect for the t7. Nothing in that pic really qualifies in my mind as the kind of offroading the t7 won't do, outside of maybe thicker mud down south. You start seeing really fucked up roads out west that look like this, and that pigfat t7 will feel like it's way out of its element. Something a dual sport should shine in.You said it perfect yourself though. You have a wr250 for more aggressive shit. I'd take my mom's Kia down that road.
>>27981706Bad troll is bad
>>27981692>(basically just a bicycle with an engine)and brakes. Don't forget the brakes. The first few people did, and it didn't end well.
>>27981707Not even. A dual sport should go where mommy's subaru couldn't.
>>27981710Glance at thumbnail and think caption says“Imagine the smell”
>>27981706There are rocks everywhere in New England. This picture doesn’t really show how steep the road is but it was pretty bad. Nobody is driving a KIA up this. I’ve made it up many steep, rocky inclines without dropping it despite the shitty stock tires. Anything like your picture is unsuitable for any large adv bike but I bet people could make it through if they had to. Obviously they are a compromise but you make different compromises with small dual sports too.
>>27981710Supersonic speed machine.
>>27981711We get it. You're a nobike
Putting an R on R7 is an abomination and insulting to R1 and R6. R stands for inrine 4 engine configuration.
>>27981706I can't do that because I'm short, but I'm sure someone human sized can take a t7 through it no problem. It won't be as easy as a light dual sport, but no one taking a heavy bike off road expects it to be a breeze. The additional challenge and skill needed is part of the fun.
>>27981624>a ktm 500 exc-f 6 days>maintenance interval every 25 hours.lmao.
>>27981732What about the R5 then, dumbass?Dumbass
>>27980585That's my bike, it's great but you should fuck off to the CP2 range until you get your feet wet. Don't go below 600 cc range, you need to learn how to properly ride with a little power
>>27980585Get the MT 125
>>2798173525 hours is pretty good for a hard enduro.
>>27981732R inflation is just a fact of life when it comes to motorcycles, in 2024 a bike needs at least three Rs to be equivalent to one R in 1984.
>>279817464185 mile rebuild schedule.
Why is white objectively the best color of bike?
I "outsmarted" my beeline moto 2, feel free to laugh at my retardation.I'm approaching a somewhat big/busy/complex intersection. Beeline shows me this.I think "the app fucked up, it probably wants me to make a u-turn after turning right". I turn left.The app reacts "Ok, recalculating" and renders further route without any surprises.Plot twist: to the right there was a waypoint that I manually added, and I wanted to reach it. But since I clearly went towards my final destination, the app discarded the intermediate waypoint — that's the right thing to do I would say, as manually removing the waypoints that you decided to skip would be annoying.The same conclusion as before: you can trust beeline moto 2, its directions have not failed me even once so far, but you shouldn't turn off your brain (or pretend to be a galaxy brain) when using it.
>>27981732the CP2 engine ain't a racing engine so putting it in the R series is kinda stupid. It's a oversqaure mid rpm high low end torque engine. It's still hella fun though not rally racing oriented.
>>27981746What's the interval for the "non dual sport" t7? Would you argue that a XR650 is not a dual sport?At least the t7 can make it out of the zip code.
>>27981732>>27981759R9 about to prove you wrong and stupid
>>27981766That doesn't even make any sense
>>27981753well that sounds pretty good. A Husaberg 450/500 for example has maintenance every 15 hours and requires changing of all bearings in the engine every 60 hours/45 when used hard.Thats how competition bikes are.
>>27981769I just wanted someone to reply to me
>>27981764an XR650 is NOT a competition hard Enduro no. a T7 is a street-bike.
>>27981755HYB
>>27981755only on springs.I'll stick to red on everything else.
>>27981624>It's a large larp bike intended to pretend to offroad on.lmao. how do you function being this retarded?
>>27981772ogey
>>27981774Yes. A street bike that can handle rough roads and off road better than almost any other street bike.
>>27981774Enduro!=dual sport.Are you starting to comprehend?
>>27981787dude noone rides exclusively off-road with a T7. Yes you can do some trails with it but its primary function is roads.The primary function of a Hard Enduro is the nastiest areas of rocks, mud, water and steep inclines.
>>27981791and being trailered to those places.
>>27981791Dipshit
>>27981790an EXC is a Hard Enduro.
>>27980684Ur mom lelz
>>27980585I came back to light dual sports, and I've been riding the better part of 8 years now. Don't be afraid to take the smol bike pill for a few years. This includes watching videos and understanding preloading front brakes, obstacle evasion, practicing emergency braking and evasion, getting over obstacles, offroad traction control and power sliding/saving a slide, etc. When I first got this bike I hit a cinderblock at 50mph in the middle of the night. Unloaded the front suspension and went right over that bitch, HARD. But had I hit it 8 years ago I'd have dumped the bike. I also had a guy run a roundabout and I had to slam the brakes recently. People around me freaked out, but I retained full control. Again, 8 years ago I'd have flown into him like those beginners afraid to hit their brakes that coast into the backs of cars at red lights. This isn't meant to be a brag, just noting that on a motorcycle everyone is out to get you. You need the mind/body connection to trust slamming your brakes, properly preloading the front if necessary, as well as controlling a difficult turn and low/medium speed control.Until your brain rides on autopilot, you don't need a bike capable of doing backflips from poor throttle control and hitting 140mph. I surprised a bunch of boomers standing on the pegs of a sportglide earlier this year and doing their little harley obstacle course with the tank between my knees. It can be done on any bike, but you need to know how to control any bike if you ever want to ride one safely.
>>27981800you can suck my hard enduro, faggot.
>Shuumatsu Touring mango got licensed without an anime but Bakuon and Super Cub didn'tBit weird when I think about it, it's not like it doesn't have plenty of corporate branding in it too.
>>27981791Obviously. It serves its intended purpose really well. It’s made to do a little bit of everything not to “larp” as an enduro. The only street legal bikes more capable off road than a T7 are going to suck if you need to cover any sort of distance on road. Even those suck off road compared to an actual enduro bike.
>>27981766>>279817402 Retards, 2 twins
>>27981811leave it man, you're arguing with a retard that thinks everyone should be riding "hard" enduro bikes with blinkers, license plate, and weekly rebuild schedules because anything less than that is "larping".
>>27981816Actually he's arguing with someone who thinks the nc750 offers a better commuter package than a larproad bike.
>>27981820who the fuck is crosshopping a frunkbike and a t7?
Just like autism, motorcycles are on a spectrum. Just as roads are.VFR800X/Crossrunner is better on shitty roads than a regular VFR.V-Strom 650 is better on shitty roads than a SV-650. Tenny will be better than either of those on even more shittier roads.Placing bikes on the road-offroad spectrum can be done objectively. Roads can be placed on the same spectrum objectively. Determine your expected usage and what you are willing to compromise, and pick a bike.
>>27981811there are plenty of bikes in this category available. I wouldnt put it on any pedestal, it seems to be a reliable, comparable cheap medium-sized adventure but most people who want to use it more seriously off-road tend to dump a lot more money into it to the point where other bikes become viable alternatives.
>>27981823
>>27981820I’d rather get a multistrada or v-strom than an NC750 if I was looking for a road only bike with those ergonomics. Hondas are so uninspiring.
>>27981732You're fucking retardingo.In the 80s Yamaha had a 50cc FZ and all the other CCs up to 750, see >>27981109Engine isn't the problem (lame frame is)
>>27981849only reason i'd go with the nc750 is if I needed a replacement for a car and as my only vehicle. Or a first bike.
>>27981823>motorcycles are on a spectrumI should get a "please be patient, I have autism" sticker for my bike
>>27981109>8hppretty bonkers, that thing could go 100 km/h ffs.
>>27981864I'm jealous anon. I looked everywhere for a tw200.
>>27981858The R series was introduced specifically to differentiate the new real deal supersports from all the lame YZF and FZR crap though.But this was a completely meaningless argument as soon as the R15 and R25 existed anyways.
>>27981864wich bike has the worst case of autism?
>>27981870The grom wishes it was that cool.
>>27981791Who cares? I have a light dual sport and I don't do that shit either. Nobody has ever said the T7 is something you want to take on 10/10 difficulty off-road tracks. Tracks that challenging you shouldn't even be doing solo no matter what you're riding.
>>27981858Yamaha R models have historically been inline 4 cc has nothing to so with it
>>27981873Idk why but images like that give me ideas.Most autistic bike has to be the grom
>>27981873nc750, burgman, nm4, ktm390 adv, navi, and I'm running out of ideas on bikes that have genuine autism.

hmmm.It fits me.
>>27981838>2016
>>27981701Yeah that's what I thought. I have a 650 but the mods for proper offroading are so expensive I should just get a tenny instead.
>>27981881Nah, the Grom is the class clown of the motorcycle world.
