>>27990801gay
>>27990770We lighthouse posting?!?!
>>27990787Because I am poor, also going to tune the engine and change some parts. Not sure how else besides exhaust, filter.
>>27990815It is also just Chinese not "chinesium" is a good bike, they import them into California as CSC Motorcycles. Are sold by Americans in California.
>>27990816Just seems kind of racist honestly, I have family from Asia, will figure this motorcycle stuff out on my own.
>>27990815its an underpowered 230cc, if youre concerned about power a used jap 250 for the same price will be faster than "tuning" that thing
>>27990816I’d never ride a piece of shit Chink bike. Unless you’re a third worlder and it’s the only motorized means of transportation you can afford you shouldn’t either.
>>27990822They've worked very hard for that reputation.
ALRIGHT GENTLEMEN hear me outi've been riding since June, planning to do a road trip down south once it starts to get cold here. i'm plenty confident on the road although i've never been in an emergency-oh-shit-slam-the-brake-on-the-highway-situation but my situational awareness is good, shifting is good, i have taken my bike apart before etcthat being said one thing i CANNOT figure out is what to do about rain on the visor. in the daytime its not terrible, but definitely suboptimal. at night its fine on the highway because it blows away, but at sub-45mph backroads its a LIABILITY and i end up just opening the visor and getting peppered with rain all the way home, because at least i can see puddles and potential deer on the dark as shit roadgive me advice PLEASE before i get smoked out here. "dont ride in the rain retard" is not an option because i need to practice in the rain to figure out what to do when im accidentally STUCK in the rain 800mi from home
>>27990816>>27990822>>27990815So buy a used Japanese one. "oh it's made of metal and gears" from last thread, do you seriously believe there exists a motorcycle that isn't made of metal? The QUALITY of the parts matters, not just that they're made of some form of melted down pot metal. It's a decades-old cloned Honda air cooled engine, most likely. You'll need to go through every single bolt with loctite, and it will still be fragile and vibrate like a paint shaker, and be slow as balls, like, barely highway capable. If you're buying it in California, don't. I see the TT250 listed on their website for $2500 bucks and I'm sure that's closer to $3000 by the time you're out the door. You're now going to spend how much more money tracking down hotrod parts for this wheezy little pot metal motor? You know what 3 grand gets you? A DRZ. Japanese steel from the late 90s/early 2000s, arguably the peak of reliability and easy to service engineering. Incredible parts support from a wide variety of aftermarket companies, too.
>>27990837Just hit it with rainx before you go. Pinlock on the inside. Get a rain glove with a wiper on the palm and/or just turn your head to the side to blow the water off of it. Rain is only miserable if you're not prepared.

The verdict is in. 9000km on my '91 Transalp. Alternator shat the bed in Norway, but no complaints otherwise. The Heidenau K60 Scouts got absolutely shredded in northern Norway. The roads are gritty as hell and have constant marks from snow chains and snowmobiles. TET in Sweden and Finland was a blast.

>>27991161Chisame a cute.Pic rel.
>>27991199
>>27991200Thanks man, it was awesome. I had two days of rain in Sweden, then two weeks of sunshine. In northern Norway, on the border to Russia, in Vardo, Nordkapp, wherever, I had sunshine and 20 degrees Celsius, it was ridiculous.
>>27991205You won the weather lottery. I can’t tell you how many times I got soaked to the bone riding in Finland. There are unpaved roads everywhere so it’s a great place for dual sporting.
>>27989624>sportbike>single backbone tubeI thought Japan got over that in the 90's.

>>27991212The R7 was meant to be the SV650S alongside the GSXR600 of the R6, it just worked out unfortunately timing-wise that the R6 team pulled the plug on the street legal model. Apart from the T7, the CP2 bikes all more or less share the same frame.
>>27991197>>27991199Perfect
>>27991203>>27991194>>27991181If you can ride a '91 Honda that far I can ride a 2000s. I'm going to take my 6th gen viffer coast to coast to coast next summer. Seattle to Maine and back. I'll clear my maintenance backlog this winter and put fresh tires+chain on before I set out.
>>27991211Yeah the moment I broke down in Norway and had to wait for the replacement alternator from Germany, we had ten Days of heavy rain. Then, gunning it down south to the ferry to denmark, I got soaked by every single lorry in Norway.
>>27991202Baaes
>>27991216>SV650SMore like the Ninja 650 than an SV. I guess Yamaha saw the economic writing on the wall and decided to make just one bike, if they could. Unfortunately the price doesn't reflect the economy of scale.
>>27991232More like the R6 got heemed by Euro standards to the point it couldn't be fixed, like the R1 a few years later.
>>27991223that is a great idea. I got a new seat with better foam to make the ergonomics work somewhat at least (6'4"). Should have gotten lowered footpegs to improve the knee angle. But then again, after 2 hours of riding you start to look for the next gas station anyways and can make a break
>>27991229pic related; Transalp squeezed into a tiny fiat box van. Some locals drove me to the next workshop after the alternator broke
>>27991243I already have Hane-chan's ergos dialed in for multi day rides, happily.
>>27991236Other brands still have their supersports. For Yamaha it was money they didn't want to spend. Yamaha motor is part of a conglomerate (which doesn't include the music company, Yamaha motor is owned by banks now) and they have 200+ other businesses to be in and I guess the bankers decided it was time for the Motorcycle business to increase it's margines. I blame capital.
>>27991257Its all very fake and gay
>>27991263Capital does not give a fuck. You will eat the bugs that capital gives you. You will ride the minibike with the lawnmower engine and you will be happy, and grateful that capital lets you ride anything at all.
>>27991232They still make the R6, actually, it's just track-only.
>>27991075You're doing good work, collage anon.
Other than the MSF course, where do I start? I wanna ride a motorcycle so bad. I know next to nothing.
>>27991330Get health insurance
Hope everyone here is having a comfy day as well!
>>27991245Well shit you got lucky, is everything fixed now?
>>27991311>still make the R6No, they don't. They *sell* it, but that's existing stocks or assembly from existing componant stocks. They aren't manufacturing any R6-exclusive parts anymore.It would take money to bring it back to the street in the EU, or just the willingness to sell it as a street bike in non-euro-smog lands. US and California emission limits for bikes haven't changed, and the R6 motor still has a valid California EO, which meets all 50-state requirements and is also accepted in Canada.The "track only" bikes exist because of existing stocks of components and finished bikes.
>>27991335Gonna shoom all the way to the park to work out. May rack up three miles today. Maybe.
>>27991348That's a ruff one buddy. Be safe and stretch!
ughhh my sister and mom said bikes are le dangerous how do I cancel my MSF course
>>27991359Show boipucci
>>27991330If you can ride a bicycle just take the MSF course. Then watch twist of the wrist 2, because the MSF teaches some bad habits, particularly regarding cornering. Get something used, Japanese, and about 300-500cc. Go riding.
>>27991336Yeah, two of the three phases inside the alternator cought fire. Initially I was worried that the rectifier/regulator overheated and killed the alternator with it. That is a rather common thing on this model of Transalp, since the regulator is located next to the exhaust and the alternator is a bit too strong. I did not come around to fixing this issue yet. So I got a spare regulator as well but turned out my old one was fine and the alternator just died of old age.What sucked was that I had to wait 10 days for the parts to arrive and I had to sit on a campsite in bumfuck nowhere north of the polar circle without mobility and non-stop rain. Then again, was an adventure in hindsight.Blurry pic related is when me and some local boy in a remote fisher village with a multimeter figured out that the alternator does not produce any current anymore and its internal resistance was curiously high at 50 Ohm

Bros, putting a bike back together without having taken it apart is a pain in the ass. I thought it would be easy because it's a newer bike that's popular (2012 r6). Thankfully there are diagrams, but they still don't tell you what the screws/bolts look like. I bought a bunch of OEM assorted bolts. Sorted them, but still have to match things together without having seen them assembled.

Anons, seriously considering a new 2024 Dr650, trading my Vstrom 1000 for something I can feel again. They gave me a price around 7500 otd, is this completely retarded? Before anyone tells me to buy used, I'm in the northeast, pre-owned shit for any good price doesn't exist. I'm already familiar with screw valves and carb rebuilds so unless there's something I'm missing it'd be piss easy to take care of.

>>27991674I measured lean based off of this picture and got 51°, a friend with a s1000 with a bank sensor also confirmed my measurements were accurate when I did the same for his bike, so I assume max lean angle before scraping peg on a VFR is about 51°

if you could have a 5-bike dream garage, what would your 5 bikes be? only conditions are 1. you can't sell/rent them and 2. they have average reliability/part cost hard mode: no Italian bikesevery time I play this game in my head, I end up with like 3 Ducatis and 2 Aprilias

What do you use to wash your bike? can I use mineral spirits or is that too harsh?
>>27991850Acetone
My loop around the South Sound is done. I got about four hours in the saddle today, to make up for zero next week (fucking business trips).>>279918081. luv me weestrom2. luv me viffer3. Something with more offroad chops, either a tenny 700 or a big thumper4. air cooled Harley5. some nip I4, probably a GSX-S1000GT+ because VFR ergos are about as sporty as I'll go these daysSo yeah two ADVs, two sport tourers, and a Harley. Insert dad jokes in drive B:.
>>27991850Blast it with piss
>>27991848>R6based, just rode mine and revved at some cagies
>>27991853>>27991878what if i piss in my bottle of acetone
>>27991880pretty much this right herehttps://streamable.com/q03eim
>>27991703I've been practicing not doing that since that picture was taken, my last scrapes have been all peg, no boot
>>279918081. 1978 Kawasaki Z1R2. 1985 Suzuki RG500 Gamma3. Some kind of high end Enduro bike4. 1997 Honda Blackbird (should never have sold mine)5. A midsized adv bike for day to day riding. My T7 is fine for this but it could be something else.
>>27991885Lame, watch a real streamiehttps://files.catbox.moe/alshin.mp4ITS ALL ABOUT THE RESPECT BROTHER
>>27991918wtf how, how much horsepower does this bike have?
>>27991902V-Strom 650 is what you want for that. It's not much of an ADV admittedly but it's comfy, leans well, and 6th gear peaks power right at about 100mph.
okay bozos what cringe sticker should I put on this big forehead? I don't watch anime but I like samurai champloo, desert punk, ghibli movies, cowboy bebop, cagliostro. my first dr650 came with a huge faye valentine sticker on the broken windscreen lol and guy down the street from me has his shitbox covered in just anime tits, but I am not that cool/retarded
>>27991954o fuk off
testing
>>27991959>>27991954Jurassic Park or NERV logo
>>27991963that was fun
>>279918085 would be almost too many1. Aprilia SXV550 race bike (assuming magic perfect reliability, if not, FS450)2. Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak3. Plated WR450F4. Tenere 7005. VFR800F Intercepter Deluxe in black (yurop only, why did they hate us?)
>>27991982Oof, what I'd give for "literally the same bike but with modern electrics and stiffer suspension." It's fucking criminal Honda stopped making them before I was old enough to buy new.
>>27991988I need to start saving my pennies for one. I take every new (to me) bike apart and check valves, grease all of the suspension linkage and the steering stem bearings, change all fluids except the rear shock (unless it's obviously blown), and customize as necessary (lowered footpegs usually). Do this and the bike is now in almost a like-new state. Another cool/uncool thing about the VFR800F is that they ditched the side radiators so it doesn't get so damn hot, even though that meant losing more of the VFR SOVL.
>>27991928I had one from 2013-2020. Great bike but I like the T7 more. If I got another strom it would be the 1000.
>>27992001the side radiators definitely have 50VL but without them you can turn your wrecked vfr into a street fighter/ naked which I think suits the vfr engine well>>27991963looks fun as fuck
>>27992001I really wish I had the patience, space, and know-how to do this to every used bike I've picked up
I am an R3 anon no longer
hes so T H I N N omg
>>27992031is this the legendary fz6, a derivative of the legendary yzf-r6??
>>27992031
>>27992031A fag frequenting Chick-fil-A is like poetry.
>>27992021It takes maybe a week of wrenching after work bar waiting on parts/a service manual. Multiple vehicles and garage space is pretty much a requirement to start doing serious wrenching unfortunately.
ahh, he is a fz6, wow.

>>27992136Ok nobike
>>27991720>>27991733I wouldn't mind trying a dbt meetup, but I doubt anyone is even 100 miles from where I live.
>>27991775This is a very good road. You can go for literal miles and never see a single person. I used to ride it on my bike for exercise.
>>27992001If your 5th/6th gen VFR has overheating issues there's something wrong with it. The most I ever saw this summer when sitting in traffic was a bit over 220 degrees and once I got moving it'd drop quickly. I do run water wetter in my coolant so that helps.
>>27992145ok but how do u make the water wetter
>>27992143Larp
I rode my ktm 890 today in southern arizona it was a nice day thanks for reading.

Being able to pull the throttle less than half way to get 100+ *and* doing it in fourth gear is scary as fuck>>27992113>congrats on the new bikethank you>are those yoga pants?leggings>>27992136you freak out too much

>>27992199>mint conditionI was lucky, guy was the second owner but barely put any miles on it because he was old enough to know better. Still spent $800 in service prepping it for sale, it was funny talking to someone who's been riding longer than I who knew less about the internals of his bike >If in a year this bike will look more like your old R3 I'm gonna kick your assOrdering a bottle of quick detail tonight and doing the hotwing method. It'll be a bit tough keeping it perfect as I still don't have a garage to keep it in but cover is going on it every single night.>>27992200>lets keep those fairings on this timeo7
