Who was in the wrong here?
>>27986775>thread ruined
>>27986777checked>>27986783at first I thought his mirror just clipped him. That's pretty fucked even if the guy is a goober.

>>27986736NTA but I think DJI's warranty has to be activated with the serial code. Not sureMeanwhile Insta360 revolves around a fucking phone app
>>27986777I wanted a Dnepr really bad 12 years ago. It was going to be my first bike kek. I remember reading so much about it breaking down just by looking at it
we goin socal bros?
>>27986806Dneprs are pretty okay honestly, but they're not wrenchlet friendly, nothing soviet is.Still they're incredibly simple machines and most breakdowns are due to bad quality parts, user error or just shit coming loose.Yea I've heard a lot of horror stories too, but I've also heard of people touring half the world in one go with zero issues.
>>27986780and it has ohlins front and rear>>27986808ooooooh maybe. how do you find these?
>>27986818>ooooooh maybe. how do you find these?used to search "demo days" religiously, this time it just popped onto my twitter feed tho
>>27986813I just went to check if there were any for sale out of curiosity.There are several with side car going for 18000 € and up.What the fuck are these prices!?
>>27986821That better be either a factory new one still in grease or a completely restored mint one tuned to perfection.I got mine for 1000€ total, got the Irbit Ural and this KMZ K750. Neither were in running condition and hadn't been since the 90s, but still.
>>27986808I am afraid that if I ride a T7 I will need to own one.
>>27986775HELL YEAH BROTHER
>>27986829The urals are a bit cheaper. 9k is the cheapest but still a lot of money IMOPic related is just pants on head retarded

>>27986777Sweet dildo seat
>>27986839Lmao that's just absolutely fucked, I just checked and a similar one here is 3600€ from a long time Ural hobbyist and even then I think it's overpriced.I personally don't really like Dneprs that much as their boxy tanks are ugly imo.Urals on the other hand retained that Teardrop shaped tank.
I need a photo of me on my bike for dating app purposes. What is the least pathetic way to get a good shot?I have no friends
>>27986886There's not. Just be rich and or attractive
>>27986780wow thats pretty cool, had no idea cannondale made these. from a quick search there seems to be a little cult following of people who like them a lot

>>27986783those onewheels are pretty fun but ive unironically broken more bones on one of those than all my years of sportbikes and MTB combined (my fault for not wearing gear on it) but they are surprisingly dangerous
>>27986888what else :(>>27986893Just want a shot that doesn't look like a selfie
>>27986886Avoid women. They will get jealous of your bike and murder it in your sleep.

>>27986906The other day I was talking to this girl that loves bikes and has a CBR 600. She said she loved the R7.I told her I had a CBR 125 and she completely ignored it, I could hear the pussy clamming shut through the computer.
>>27986890I guess ATK made the engines for them too.

It was me. I reported xer for avatar use.

>>27987088Fuck you, I had more insults to send her way
I rode to work this morning and had a full 60 psi on the manual gauge and the pressure light was flashing even with the harness disconnected and de-pinned from the instrument cluster. So it's either the cluster or the ecm or some kind of feedback in the electrical system causing the light to flash, only at WOT high rpm. Weirdest electrical gremlin I've ever seen. At any rate, I'm done chasing it. I'm putting felt tape over the light and wiring in my own simple led indicator light for the pressure switch, and I'll be done with it
>>27986775Why is every T7 posted on /dbt/ on the most mild shit you can ride a bike on?
>>27987116Glad it's just some weird electrical issue, and am also glad you almost learned to diagnose problems
>>27987121Nobody stops to take a picture when they are riding up a rough, rocky incline.
>>27987121I usually don't stop to take pictures when I'm riding harder stuff. Picked up a helmet cam so at least I can get footage of me wiping out
>>27987121cope / seethe
I want a helmet cam, is everyone just using a gopro?

>>27987144I will shill for the DJI Osmo 4, it's a great product
>>27987124I will concede, I should have put a manual gauge on it sooner, that was my fault. It just seemed really sketchy to do it on a bike and the circumstances under which it occurred were so weird that I just couldn't believe it was an electrical gremlin. I've never seen something like that before in my years as a tech and it was my fault for falling to my own hubris. I will now fall on my own sword.

Topkek the T7 guys are certified young boomers... just like the stereotype
>>27987219Adventure bikes are the new Harley's
>>27987205Holy fuck I never noticed that. >>27987217I'm not sure yet. It's been one problem after another with this bike the whole summer. It's a 2 year build. Lots of unavailable parts. Valves are due for adjustment. It still has the weird jerky on/off throttle response at low speeds, which I think is a design flaw. Everything is stacking up where I should just sell it at this point.I'm not in a rush to sell it but I'm still considering it. I'm going to buy that 2011 gsxr750 on Monday that I've been eyeing. I'll see how I feel once I get that bike.

>>27986768Does anyone know of a company that makes traditional looking motorcycle boots that aren't thin fashion boots? I am looking for something like picrel, but an actual, functional boot. Ideally an 8in, steel toed, all-leather boot with a reinforced heel/ankle. The closest I've found are Harley-Davidson branded, but they look gay. I just want a classic boot that's not garbage.

>>27986886Pull up to a cool spot and ask a nearby babe "hey would you mind taking a pic of me?" And she'll be excited for the oppurtunity because every woman thinks she's an ace photographer. After she takes the pics make a low key comment like "Thanks. I'm trying to get back into the dating world and I have no pics of me." I literally had a girl I met on tinder take a pic of me on my bike so I could have a better tinder pic lmao
>>27987144Yeah we are because they have the best mounting solutions but I hate my gopro 7. The battery life sucks and constantly taking it out of the case to charge and get to the memory card is super annoying.

>>27987369Who?
>>27987412Is the exhaust well fixed in place?How's the plug?How's the plug connection?Did you change anything?
>>27987426One of the faggot cartoon posters, he had a ZX-12 I think>>27987232Yeah I guess with the GSX-R you can replace the ZXR. Unless you keep it as a dedicated track/ stunt bike
>>27987435>he had a ZX-12 I thinkOh that fag.
>>27986886I got you bro
>>27987427Exhaust is rusty but no leaks so far and perfectly fixed in placeNo idea about plug consition so I ordered a new one a week or so ago that im gonna installPlug connection is fine>change anything20 amp fuse to replace old 15 amp fuse and fixed wires the thief cutI assume I didnt fix the wires well enough and the ignition cant get enough power at higher speed
>>27987447Yea, could be the wiring.The fuse has nothing to do unless it's got a bad connectionCheck the air filter and carb manifold for leaks too
How do I get into track riding? Are there certain courses I should look for first or be able to do certain things?
>>27987458if you have a local track they probably offer advanced riding courses for the track.
>>27987456How do I check for leaks in carbmanifold?Just look at it running?
>>27987465It doesn't need to be running. Inspect the rubber, if it's old, cracking and dry it might have leaks, if the rubber looks good see if the carb has a solid connection. I doubt it's this but it doesn't hurt to check
>>27987460There's one close to me. I'm checking the site and my state's motorcycle road racing association page.
>>27987476Carb is a bit clogged I think I eanted to clean or replace it at some point anywaysIt also might be running a tad eich but ill see when i remove the spark plug
>>27987458pay moneydon't crash (optional)congratulationIf you can make your motorcycle speed up and slow down and go left and right that would be helpful
>name another color like this>you can't
>>27986808Going to this and hoping I can get a chance to ride an R7, despite the price point they seem like fun

thoughts on BBK?I have a fucked piston. possibly a fucked cylinder (gonna pull it apart and check this weekend)will a BBK add value if I decide to flip the bike?
>>27987587>Thoughts They don't add as much power as you'd think. In your situation, where the piston and bore are already fucked, it might be a good alternative to expensive OEM parts or if you can't find OEM >Will it add valueIt will do the opposite. I would always choose an OEM bike over one with a Big bore kit
>>27987592what do you need to get power out of it?should I look into cams as well?
>>27986768Got a fuzzy seat for the hawg. I think it’s a bit much but will be nice for cold weather and long rides. Also adjusted shortened the clutch linkage because I couldn’t get enough travel to fully disengage the clutch. The bike doesn’t want to walk when it’s in gear anymore but finding neutral is still a pain. I think the primary belt might be too tight, it’s only got 1/4-1/2 inch of play and I think it’s supposed to be 3/4 or so. Hopefully that fixes it. It least I can stay still if I need to stop in gear now though.

Just finished msf training and I'm considering an mt03 for my first bike but my buddy is telling me to skip it and go mt07 instead. Do y'all think he's right?
>>27987763No, you need something that you can fuck up on that's forgiving like a small displacement, otherwise you'll probably just yeet yourself into a wall, plus you're probably going to drop it
How hard is it to fuck up the msf course
kwads
>>27987310>>27987308Cruiser life best life
>>27987775Pretty hard, for context there was a black kid in my msf class who could not stop dropping the bike and did not want to listen to instructions. He was told to stop, he would rev the throttle. He was told to go slow, he would speed. Told to go fast, he would go slow. He rear-ended other students about three or four times, and during the test he's the only one who dropped the bike. He got 14 points (Out of 15, higher is worse), no one in our class failed.
>>27987775just don't be a dummy and you'll do fine
>>27987779Good to know my socioeconomic disadvantages won't stop me. My only concern is that I've never been on a bike but oh well I'm sure I'm not alone.
>>27987673Did dbt have trannies back then?

I wore a battlevest for years to shows and around town but since I started riding I've been too chicken to wear it because of SoA larp. You never know when insecurity will pop up
quit riding dicks guys, see picMotorcycles are gay, don't you understand? Only poor people like Indians ride motorcycles. If you crash on a motorcycle you will die. If you crash in a car you can survive, because your car loves you, it wants to protect you. Only a car will be comfy, fast, and beautiful for you, always. When you're riding 1000cc dildo in the rain you look dumb. There's a reason why cars are more common in the US, where people have money. There is a reason why rich Arabs drive a Nissan Patrol, and not a Tenny.Cars are just better in every way possible.
>>27987826There has always been a constant stream of trannies who basically an hero a year or two after garnering the general's attention.
>>27987921>If you crash on a motorcycle you will die.How is this a bad thing exactly?
>>27987862Happy to help anon. Hope you like them!!
>>27987932Don't you love riding your dick (bike) notice how even words look similar
>>27987931its fine
>>27987458Sign up for beginner riding course. They will probably have optional extra coaching sessions. Make sure you're comfortable leaning your body off or your going to look like a dork and everyone will pass you.
>>27987931>Also is there supposed to be oil in the air box?depends on how much. chances are its just from an oiled filter rather than anything else.
Another comfy day of riding. Enjoy and be safe, gentlemen
>>27987895I take it up the ass regularly but battlevests are the gayest shit ever, I hope you get the courage to wear it out on a ride and get the shit beat out of you
>>27987931>>27987954Apparently he doesn't have a filter. The carb is blowing back the fuel oil mix. My 2smoke does the same but 30 ml sounds a lot, dunnoHaving no filter will make it run leaner

>>27988120I’ve only had this problem once when my company imported a bunch of filthy Indians over to work on an IT project. A biker chick coworker called me and told me to look outside because an Indian guy was touching my bike. I had to stop what I was doing and go outside to the parking lot to tell him never to do that again.

>>27987599It will add SOME, it just won't be a crazy amount. You will need to rejet or adjust your EFI depending on your bike.
>>27988151theres a spot i ride to thats popular for tourists because of the view and one time i turned around to see some old german guy full blown sitting on my bike with the kickstand up while his wife took a picture of him kek
>>27988151>Indian guy was touching my bike.they dont understand personal space or private property. I had one breathing down my neck sitting in queue at an airport security checkpoint.
>>27988167What the fuck, what did you do to him?
>>27988120depends on the bike and where it's parked.I have had my bikes messed with by hobos when I had a topbox and I'd park near the university. One even went as far as to tip the bike over to stomp on the case, which he couldn't get into before security turned up. Givi kept my sweaty and musty gym clothes safe.
>>27988142Does it need a gasket tho
>>27988182Does it take oil there? What does the manual say >>27988172In this case I was checking some stuff and the guy comes asking if it's broken down. I'm right in front of him and the guy decides to start touching.

>>27988182possibly.I'm guessing this is it, as I recognize the swingarm cover from the suzuki ayylmao.At least one of those gaskets looks like that cover.https://www.dataparts.eu/en/artikel-noch-nicht-zugewiesen/gasket-kit-engine-tgb-eng-gh5>>27988195>Does it take oil there?

>>27987788I had never touched a motorbike before I was in the class, and I got 9 points total. (More is worse)The instructor was telling me that a few weeks before I took it, there were people who had never ridden a bicycle before in the class. They failed, but then retook it after the instructor had brought a bicycle in and taught them how to ride it, and one passed.
>>27987862The problem with regular boots and style boots in general is that those soles aren't going to slide if they touch pavement, they're going to start peeling. Arguably, a new pair of cheap $60-80 work boots would be better than those jump boots simply because they may have a steel toe in them.
>>27988132that fact that its a cvt
>>27988138if its off that scooter then nah
>>27987775>>27987788almost everyone there has never touched a bikemy class only had 2 people fail1 woman crashed into the guard rail1 patel dropped his bike from turning too sharp, too slowother than that everyone passedthere's enough youtube videos out there to show you what youre about to get into
>>27988170I walked up to him with a huff on my face, he glanced at me in my alpinestars bright-yellow airbag vest that made me look like a lego figure and bellowed "NICE BIKE, JAH". My gaze turned toward the pavement and I said "Y-you too". He then ripped a huge wienerschnitzel fart right on my $400 porous seatconcepts seat, leaving a brown streak all across it. He stood up and wiped his lederhosen off on my shift lever, yelled "IT'S OKTOBERFEST" to his wife (it was the middle of july) and skipped off, leaving me with my shit-stained T7. I then opened up my phone, browsed to /v/, and made a "DIE NAZI" thread.
about to watch this kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gShNCd_ZqOMi'll return with my synopsis
Lunch stop before heading down to the lighthouse. Perfect weather all weekend
>>27988256Cytube it
>>27988256The first minute of this screams "I am having a midlife crisis"
>>27988255kek
>>27988256why make it so dramatic though
>>27988256lmao
>>27988264I hate when they start hiding trackers on your bike when you go into the store for some cigs. I came out once and found half of an airtag i didn't recognize wedged under the subframeHOW THE HELL DID IT GET THERE?
>>27988274NEVER skip leg day
>>27988073> waiting patiently for Triumph to do a 765 RS version of this
>>27988283>How the hell do I replace my carb without garage and without getting harassed by authorities in a city?Carbs are thankfully pretty easy. I would just find a parking garage or a lot. Bring my tool roll (My tool roll has everything) and have at it. This depends entirely on how big your current carb is and how big your new carb is, if you can slide it past the subframe (I can on my bike)
>>27988283>>27988288If they give you shit about being in a parking lot, tell them it's a repair job and you're stranded (very true, you're stranded until the new carb is on)
>>27987513blue
>>27987763>Do y'all think he's right?yes, you can handle an mt07.
Still thinking about that piece of shit that touched MY SHIT and told me someone would steal it.The nerve
>>27988281They already did.
>>27987763Never let your friends upsell you on a bike you don't know if you can handle.Also if it's your first bike, get used. You won't feel as bad breaking it.
>>27988273>>27988263>>27988256yea nvm, that was dumbthis looks good thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXaAMWuZXd8
i have 2 hours of riding experience in total, currently attending lessons to get a full license.should i get a honda goldwing? i really really like the idea of boomermaxxing. is this unwise?
>>27987763My only concern about recommending an mt07 to a brand new rider is that it can power wheelie and it has no rider modes to mute the throttle response. If you whiskey throttle that bike in lower gears it can come out from under you. Because of that (and other reasons) I really think a triumph trident is a better bike for you.
>>27988331Start on something lighter weight.
>>27987763no he's wrongwhy are those the only two optionsgo for a 500cc honda something
>>27988331horrible idea, heavy bikes are terrible for beginners. although i agree goldwings are dope
>>27988337wrong
>>27988238Not a fashion boot, the ones I got have steel toe, steel shank, and steel ankle. They are surplus army jump boots from the 90s, US made. It looks like the leather is pretty thick as well, based on the pics.
how do you guys get brake master cylinder screws out when they won't budge? they aren't stripped yet, and I have a JIS driver
>>27987121Tenere 700 are like these Jack Wolfskin jackets.Yamaha sells you the idea of you going off-road, of you being Pol Tarres, conquering the desert.In reality people use it as a touring bike with occasional light offroad tracks.
>>27988340>>27988349>horrible idea, heavy bikes are terrible for beginnerswhy so? lots of ppl i read said that heavier bikes are easier at low speeds cos theyre smoother
>>27988359Oh, then just wear them, yeah. They won't save you in a fall but they'll protect your feet from inadvertent touches with the pavement
>>27988365This is adventure biking in general. Everyone posts their KLR or Africa Twin on a light dirt road, but have you ever tried taking one on mud?
>>27986948I don't like doing that...
>>27988376>>27988365>Anons are surprised people use touring bikes with light off-road capabilities as touring bikes with light off-road capabilitiesEven the T7 is fucking HEAVY, what else would you want to do with one?
>>27988365ok.Why does this make you upset?Would you rather a ten year old harley with just 5k miles on it?
>>27988370You have it backwards. Heavy bikes are stable at high speed, but incredibly ungainly as low speed. The huge wheelbase and limited steering lock also hinder you. You WILL drop that bike and crush your foot as a brand new rider. Get like a Rebel 500 or something and put at least 10,000 miles on it before you go to a big tourer.
>>27988362>brake master cylinder screwsscrews? for the lid?some penetrating oil, put the screwdriver in and tap it lightly, like a punch. sometimes helps break them free
>>27988370its the opposite. heavy bikes are harder to manage at low speeds.
>>27987763Mt03 is very good, stay with it. Make sure it has abs.
>>27988376My sportbike handles dirt like a champ, but scoot struggles with bumps. Sportbikes on dirt and gravel is tons of fun. Only if it's not wet. If wet, I'm not taking it on dirt road.
>>27988371Sorry, not trying to argue, is there a reason steel reinforced boots would not be protective? I was under the impression most motorcycle boots were just reinforced leather boots. Is there something I'm missing?
>>27988137I have hentai tech tips and tentacle tech tips.
anybody ITT frens right now?
>>27988408yeah screws for the lid. I just threw some WD40 on it, I've tapped the lid a few times, I'll try it with the screwdriver inserted. I really don't want to put the bike out of commission by having to extract these but it needs the fluid done. I read that getting brake fluid in the threads can make them real stuck and it's a pretty crusty master cylinder.
>>27988309The new one looks more comfortable
>>27988376I’ve taken my T7 in mud and on steep, rocky inclines. It’s capable but it’s dicey. If I’m venturing into really rough stuff I’d rather take my WR250R. I used to ride a Honda Blackbird and one day on really poorly maintained roads in Maine I was struggling on the frost heaves when two guys on BMW adv bikes flew by. That’s when I realized that the upright position and lots of suspension travel of adv bikes is ideal for backroad touring. I’d get a Tracer 9 or Multistrada but I like being able to go into rough terrain sometimes and drop the bike without caring. Nobody buys an ADV bike to do hard enduro. If that were the goal I’d get a 300cc 2 stroke enduro bike and trailer it from riding spot to riding spot and have to change the oil every 5 hours.
>>27988429why do you always post this? is it a discord dogwhistle or something? post a bike if you want friends itt
All the sex having anons with friday dates, I request you to come back and post animu. Thanks.
>>27988436>post a bike if you want friends itteveryone will leave if i post my bike, i have to test the waters first. :c
>>27988362put the screwdriver on, hit it with the hammer while turning
at a cafe waiting for my bike to get the valves adjusted, rolled up to the shop and the guy is operating out of his house with a buddy lol
>>27988283Thankfully on my bike replacing the carb takes all of like 15 minutes tops.The biggest timesink is just unscrewing the nuts and wrestling the cable out of the slide.
>>27988449>there are people itt that have mechanics that will return a bike the same day.Most dealerships in my area require the bike to be left there at times for up to a week for simple shit. The 600mile service on my 790 I had to leave it with them for nearly a whole week. I'm jelly. Pic unrelated.
>>27988431wd40 might not be strong enoughif you live near an autoparts store, pick up something dedicated to penetrating rust. last resort you can try an impact screwdriver. its like a punch that when you hammer down on top of it it also turns the screw. that might be too much for the plastic master cylinder reservoir,
>>27988362Get an impact driver
>>27988437no ones having sex itt
no ones rides bikes itt
jk jk i do. idk bout you guys
last time I took my bike to a dealer they demanded to keep my bike for a week for a chain change and uggadugga'd my front sprocketall while charging me $140 for itI don't plan on going to a dealership again>>27988459im the only person ITT who actually daily rides
>>27988398I am just annoyed that grown men fall for these cheap marketing tricks.
>>27987763I finished my course earlier this year and got an mt-03 as my first bike and couldn't be happier. I think it's a lot fun for what it is and once you get used to it you can swap out the throttle tube for r6 tube to wake it up.
>>27988471>having Sex in the threadit's a blue board
>>27988509as blue as your balls
>>27988505For example, last time s.b. told me that the T7 is more reliable than other adventure bikes because it does not have ride by wire (electronics = bad, the old mantra).Well ride by wire is actually used on every modern car and airplane, these systems are tested and proven again and again.
>>27988433It is. That was kind of the point. Make a bike that the average person actually wants to ride.
>>27988511>ride by wire is actually used on every modern car and airplaneIf planes got the amount of maintenance I give my bikes, nobody would fly them.
>>27988511what do you think will last longer?His t7 or the...pretty much anything on my ktm. I've already experienced the dead throttle fault on mine.
>>27988505is it a trick if the bikes is capable of doing whats advertised?the owner being able to do it, is an entirely different issue
>>27988510wow now that was just uncalled for. And also wrong.
>>27988529>>27988529>>27988529>>27988529new comfort thread, no bullies!
>>27988526
>>27988521The T7 is already a very modern bike with an ECU, EFI and ABS.But it is marketed as simple and reliable bike (not that it isn't).This argument would be valid for older KLRs, but not for the T7. The electronic systems are developed externally by e.g. Bosch and sold by the millions with little to no room for errors.
>>27987183Liking this one a lot anon. Cheers.
>>27987219HELL YEAH BROTHER
>>27988362You need one of these. I go straight for it these days, no mucking around. Vessel is a good brand
>>27987664Either syntax works, but the first one sounds more like agreement than a statement.
>>27988978but don't I need a JIS bit to go with it?
>>27988200>love/hate this guy but his advice about riding position is correntlmao yeah I like this guy he seems like kind of a butthead but I like it. I've been watching a lot of his stuff already. I'll exhaust all my beginner/intermediate options in my area before working up to the higher level schools. Thanks for the advice anon also all the other anons answering my newfag questions.
>>27987465while it's running, spray tiny amounts of carb cleaner,wd40,degreaser,etc. close to every seal on the manifold & carb and listen for an RPM change.
>>27987948Hanging off 3 feet to get your knee down while getting passed by everyone will make you look like more of a dorkinb4 this is full ass man himself
