Perfection was achieved in 2011, that's why it hasn't changed. It's over, by the way, but not done.

>>28017343How many Superbike championships have been won on Suzukis since then?
>>28017348cute cat, arent you that guy that flaked?!?!
Onsa
>>28017352I love the look of the old tdubs, I wish I could get plastics that matched these white and blues for my much newer one
>>28017350>Superbike championshipsmore importantly its what the bike does on the highway, stamped. https://youtu.be/1FFmub6ei8Q?si=1MWlFOJ2p_ZYS7hN
I went and looked up bags for the back of my bike and some of these are fucking insane. $300 for a fucking cooler bag? That's fucking nuts, and they're all charging this much for this shit.
>>28017348IMM GONNA EXPLODE THE UNBELIEVERAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>28017351NO YOUYOURE FLAKEUR THAN CORNFLAKE

Viffer brosan old boomer in my neighborhood has been trying to sell me his old '99 VFRhe keeps telling me about the "damn crank case timing is all fucky"he's offering to sell it to me, but I don't know what the hell he means by crank case timingdoes he mean the valves? Or is something terribly wrong that we're not fully aware of?
>>28017391that could mean fucking anything, have you heard it run?
>>28017406>that could mean fucking anythinghe says it "takes 2 years to start" so never bothers, he did say the bottom part is fine, but im not a mechanic so i dont know what the hell is the "top part" of the crank caseto be honest its such a nice bike but im too much of a retard to wrap my head around his boomer ramblings
Caught the office stacies staring when I pulled up on the bike. Sadly, they all seemed disappointed when they realized it was just me.
>>28017416You have to have something beyond your bike. It just gets your foot in the door.(I'm terrible with women btw)
>>28017416Sorry to hear that happened anon.
What are the chances that any Japanese bikes makes it into the top 10 at the Motegi GP?
>>28017406>>28017414i think anon means the crankfshaft gears are mistimedbut im no mechanic, i just know those are on the top part of the engine
>>28017391Honestly that sounds like it's going to need serious mechanical and/or electrical work, but that's still worth it if you can talk him down low enough and then pay a stealership probably more than you paid him to fix it. If it was most other kinds of bikes I'd tell him to fuck off but you literally can't buy a new V4 anymore without paying 25,000 pastabux for some Ducati or Aprilia.t. 6th gen, still touring
>>28017454i'll see if i can go under 1ksomething about owning a V4 is just too enticing to pass up
saw an R3 on the highway todayall i could do is cheer it on and hope nobody crashes into that little buddy
>>28017501yea he was probably just doing his best
what would be worse, buying a track bike for the street or a stunt bike for the streets?
>>28017509you dont buy peoples stunt bikes, you make your own and die with it...wrenchlet
might be a dumb question but is there any benefits to wearing dirt armor under street jacket for better impact protection?

>>28017530fuck. havent been on here in a hot minute and forgot how to post
>>28017473V4 engines are beautiful. Even in a relatively low revving one like my Crosstourer (redline is about 8'500rpm), they just seem to keep power coming.There was an issue with some VFRs that got dubbed as chocolate cams - might want to check if that bike is of that generation
>>28017523not a dumb question. If it's comfortable and you're not dying of heat stroke, I don't see a problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmMv64mXk64
>>28017391>but I don't know what the hell he means by crank case timingIt's nonsense. Get a video of it trying to start and idle then compare the sounds to a video of a good one. The good news is it's probably not mechanical as 5th gens are nigh impossible to kill, the bad news is it could be literally anything
>theft recovery>no titleWhy do people try to get away with insurance fraud on fb marketplaceWho the fuck is buying a bike with no title? I can just steal one for free
>>28017532You're thinking of the VF. 99s are the 5th gen VFR and have fuel injection and gear driven cams with no vtec which is the best combo for reliability. >>28017473VFR engines are cheap, if it's truly a mechanical issue then 1k would be a good deal.
>>28017547There are a lot of sketchy retards out there trying to pull one over, but It's easy to dodge those by looking up the vin on NICB. There are some deals to be had on no title bikes.
>>28017549>if it's truly a mechanical issue then 1k would be a good dealthanks fren, you're helping me feel more confident in this possible purchase
>>28017348I'm already Tracer
Alright guys so tail tidy is next but I want to get a full exhaust system next year. I'm not really knowledgeable on particulars but have been looking at Toce, Spark, M4, and SC Project. Anyone have any other suggestions for arguments for one of these brands?
>>28017588What biek makes women do this?
>>28017590>bought a new bike>he's not happy with it as is
>>28017593The exhaust is too big and I prefer less licence plate visibility.
Last attempt before carb cleanining/ replacement to get some more out of this engine that will not idle no matter what
>>28017590>I want to get a full exhaust system next yeardon'tfull exhaust always require tuning and other shit to make the most use out of them, stick to a slip-on
she runs better now but the carb might FUBAR
To follow up with the dust issue that I asked about over a week ago I went with 2 full coats of Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic spray with 24 hours in between each coat since someone recommended ceramic sprays. The dust and road debris sticking to the bike cut down to less than half of what it used to and now I can actually just blow the bike down with a cheap corded air duster from amazon and it looks 100% clean again. All the remaining dust and light mud spots flies right off without wiping.
>>28017523nup, I do the same
how hypothetically difficult could it be to put a big sandan seat on an enduro bike
or a dirt bike
OK bros I finally realized girls dont want guys with android phones so I ordered an iphone 16 pro. It will be delivered in a few weeks. I'll need to get a quadlock case for it. And I'm not gonna let this new phone get wrecked like my samsung did, I'm getting the vibration dampener. Thanks for reading my blog.
>>28017416Based disappointer. Fuck those undeserving whores.
>>28017713Just cause girls reject you doesnt mean you need to come out as gay tranny retard
>>28017713What does a phone matter?I still use a Nokia Lumia 1020 because it just works.Would use my old Nokia 808 if I didn't fuck up the charge port on it and everyone refusing to replace it.
>>28017523your torso is already the least prone to injuries in an accident, so it doesn't make sense if you don't already have the best boots and leg gear you can get
>>28017713Fuck Quadlock, their vibration damper doesn't work and their locking system is tedious. Peak Designs is much better at both.

>>28017332Do any of you regret selling your first bike?I've restored this '85 VF750c magna to its factory state and now I'm thinking about selling it because I really don't want to abuse it in such a good condition, I'd like to get something for wheelies and fun. Not sure what should I do now :(
>>28017873Same bro>>28017871That’s just your opinion DUDE
>>28017352>>28017354You're lucky you can find tws, I looked for months and was told I'd have to pay to special order one. My xt250 ended up the same price, and is better on the highway.

>>28017391If you're friends with this guy, you should offer to fix it with him. You can use the internet, and he can pay for parts and tools. Put both heads together and get it running. Then when he dies he'll surely leave it to you in his will, and you'll get it for free.

>>28017865>>28017755Nothing is going to happen if shekelburg "tracks you" you schizo faggots. Yes I know he's actually doing it but it literally doesn't affect your life. You just become a datum in some advertiser database so they can send you ads based on your gender and location. Who the fuck cares. It's not like he's going to drone strike you.
>>28017590Baby beluga, very clean>>28017610Slip ons are GAY as FUCK. Why would you pay money to make your bike louder without adding any performance benefit? The most based exhaust mod is to install a decatted header and keep the stock muffler so you get more flow without the noise.

Has anyone had komine motorcycle gear before? I bought some that were barely used from webike and I don't know if it is a good brand or just some weird smaller name.

>>28018031You do understand insurance companies purchase data on their customers, right? How is Moshe and Goldberg going to react when they find out your commute often involves speeds 15mph or faster than the speed limit, filtering in a state where it's not legal, or general accelerometer records? Doesn't even have to be leaked, as you agree to the terms and conditions that can be updated at any time. Here's one massive app that got caught selling almost exclusively to insurance orgs. Collecting speed and accelerometer data too.https://www.kbb.com/car-news/spying-on-your-driving-weather-apps-gas-price-apps-more/
>>28018047No, but you can follow me on Instagram. See how it's different? >>28018049My data has already been breached by plenty of other shit. So has that of every American. Social security numbers, names, and emails are literally all public information at this point. I still didn't get my identity stolen and never will because I'm not a retard. Use a password manager to auto-generate passwords, use 2FA with a yubikey, and freeze your credit at all times other than when to plan to open a new account or take out a loan. There, I just made you impervious to identity theft.
>>28018248>My data has already been breached by plenty of other shit.Because you're a fucking moron who keeps giving his data out like candy because "HuRRrrr NoThiNg HapPenS if SheCkelBerG TraCkS You"DOOOOIIIIIIIIII
>>28018143My manlet self hopping on my tenny
>>28018162>i see orange
>>28018162Tires that last longer than the engine kek
>>28018256I wasn't exaggerating when I said LITERALLY every American's data has been breached. ALL social security numbers, names, and emails are public data.https://www.cbsnews.com/news/social-security-number-leak-npd-breach-what-to-know/There are thousands of data breaches per year, and you can't avoid giving out your data. If you have ever had a job, own a bank account or credit card, have a driver's license, rent an apartment or own a house, then you have given out your data, and it's been breached. You need to stop relying on the hope of your data not being breached as your main line of defense against identity theft, because it's a false hope, and you might actually be one of the most vulnerable people because you have no clue what's going on. Instead, you should operate under the assumption that all of your data is public and take steps to protect yourself accordingly. Following the 3 steps I mentioned in my previous post will make you impervious to identity theft. Think of it as finding yourself in India, and just putting on gloves rather than trying to avoid touching shit which is an impossible task that will drive you insane. Then you can rest easy at night and stop being a schizo. And as a bonus, you can use services like Instagram and Google Maps without fear, which are pretty useful for your life.
>>28018278This is where today's video sponsor comes into playif you use my code nigger88 you get 12% off
>>28018265>Implying implications.Though I do think the stock tkc 70's on the 390adv do outlive the engine for one reason or another.
>>28018230It's true that this is technically possible, but it's easy to avoid with only a modicum of brain cells. Apps have permissions which you set in the settings of the phone itself for each app, and they physically can't collect data from your device which you don't permit in the settings menu since they don't have root level access to the device. If you don't let an app collect location or accelerometer data when you're not using the app, then this isn't happening, full stop. Even besides that, it's highly unlikely that Instagram would attempt to sell telemetry data to my insurance company. For one thing, it's a massive app that's under a lot of scrutiny about privacy and data usage. Zuck has been to congress and badgered about privacy. If they started doing this, people would find out immediately and it would be massive news and a huge reputational hit. Also, they make a lot of money by other means and wouldn't need to resort to a controversial and possiblity illegal practice after other shittier apps have already gotten sued about it. It just doesn't make any sense. If anything, you're making an argument not to use any apps EXCEPT the biggest ones like Meta and Google products, since those are under the most public scrutiny and have the biggest reputational risk to avoid by leaking or selling your data in a way that would piss people off.
>>28018283I accept your concession

>>28017549How intrusive is the combined braking system that generation has? For low speed maneuvering you want rear brake only.
>>28018398I have no complaints about it rideability wise, but it can be a gigantic pain in the ass to get air out of the secondary master cylinder if you ever have to.
>>28018303Yeah, no. I'm not using your shitty roastie app.
>>28018376Camshafts as a wear item should be expected on a high strung, high performance bike like KTMs. If you want some boring commuter with no character and the lack of a rider/bike relationship built through maintenance then just get a jap bike, poorfag.
>>28018408>Camshafts as a wear item should be expectedLol, what
can I start from Kawasaki Vulcan S? I really like the design and it doesnt appear to be so powerful
>>28018416Yeah, who the fuck likes orange bike: go boom
>>28018408>Ducati has their desmodromic valves>KTM has pot metal camshaftsI love a bike with character.
>>28018408The issue is not that the bike is too high-strung, it's a manufacturing defect that's causing the problems and no amount of maintenance is going to fix the issue.
Are honda vt sport bikes just rare or shit, I really want one but I've yet to see more than like 2 being sold like ever.

>>28018516I used the measuring table on revzillas site, which I assume is correct. It works for everything else. Apparently it is a genuine problem with anything Revit in that it runs small from the dimensions given.
>>28018496I bought a Revit jacket and I had to go up a size to an XL, where I am normally a large.>>28018599>I used the measuring table on revzillas siteSame, they're usually are pretty good about telling you the size you need.

Thread’s dead baby.
Went riding with my mate, awesome day but it was getting a bit hot. I need to rip the power commander out and get a woolich flash tune, because the throttle is very snatchy when transitioning from braking to throttle in the corners. It felt shitty and upset the bike when I was leaning a lot, especially because it was a very tight road so I was spending a lot of time in 1st at low RPM.The 690 is slower than I remember but still tons of fun to ride, power wheelies everywhere
>>28018867right at the end of summer these threads die painfully slow deaths. the posters who live in warm year-round climates aren't enough to keep them afloat
Tomorrow I'm going to ride without my license plate.

Make sure you take care of her and do all the maintenance on time.A brief scroll of my local marketplace told me I could probably get 10k for my duc.Sell it now or hold onto it long term as an investment? My hunch is it will become a niche collector item at some point.
>>28019165Im already seething
>be me >have ultimate street bike>ridefeels good
>>28018893depends on how long it takes to get there. Theres a lot of pre reqs for being a RUNNER. If you can't wheelie or do skids with min180hp/L I wouldn't even attempt it.
>>28019223Nta butI've been a runner twice but it was only because I got the jump and knew there was no possible way of them catching up
Viffer bros, an update on the boomers VFRi asked if it runs, he said "no, the brace on the top crankcase is stripped"then I asked since it doesnt run if he can give it up for $500he said $450 is fine at this pointBROS I MIGHT HAVE JUST WON THE LOTTERYBUT IF NOT, I AT LEAST CAN SELL IT AGAIN FOR $500
>>28019228i believe you
>>28019232It may take 10x that to get it running again, but that's still a reasonable total price for a running VFR.

Polishing the plastics, touching up little things. My zx6 was ROUGH when I brought it home. Have you cleaned and greased your throttle tube and cables/clutch cable? One of the largest improvements you can do on an old bike. I need to make a a video on cleaning old cables actually, it helps so much. My zx6 was difficult to find cables for and cleaning them was a god send.>Sick zx6r Thanks brah. Yes, I finally got everything sorted on it, but I've been riding the gixxer mainly. Next time I take the zx6 out, I'll get a good 1-4 quickshifter streamy for you.Pic related, day I brought her home.

That's the thing, this guy literally spent nearly a thousand prepping it for sale. It's got new tires, freshly lubed cables, even greased the shifter. It literally rides like brand new. Has the receipts tooHas all the nice aftermarket mods too like frame sliders and a slip on. I've been cleaning the chain every week and hitting the tank/fairings with instant detail after every ride just to feel like I'm doing something for it ;_;>Thanks brah. Yes, I finally got everything sorted on it, but I've been riding the gixxer mainly.Was it a six hunnid or a seven fiddy? Gorgeous either way>I'll get a good 1-4 quickshifter streamy for you.I thought it was a 600? You can't get to 6th? Looking forward anyway hehe>Isn't R3 anonI'm R3 anon .-.
>>28017391You do not want to open up a fucked v4 engine. If it has timing issues that's due to damage or idiots getting inside it. The owner reeks of moron but sometimes they can sell shit cheap and it better be cheap if it doesn't run or runs badly.If you MUST have it do a cold compression test on all four cylinders. If they pass it's probably electrical or fuel. Cam timing etc causes bad compression readings due to lobes not being where they should. Don't pay much at all since broken bikes ain't shit. Pay so little you can part it out for profit if it's not worth fixing. Never go shopping hungry and never marrry what you can pimp.t.ancient mechanic
>>28017414>he says it "takes 2 years to start"That's usually fuel-system related. For example a leaking internal EFI hose or a weak pump. Don't fix it or troubleshoot it, just ensure the compression test is good.
>>28019366Oh damn, that's awesome, usually don't find bikes that well cared for, good find. The gixxer is a 750, the zx6r is a 599 (not the 636). I love both of them for different reasons. The zx6r is better for putting you in the pocket and hitting Twisties, the 750 is an amazing squid missile lol. I probably could send it through 6th if I wanted, just depends where I'm at and what mood I'm in. I actually don't ride super fast usually. Most rides I don't break 135 mph. >I'm R3 anon Oh shit, my bad dude. I genuinely hope I didn't offend you or make you feel like shit.
>>28018912Hard to tell, but it looks like yamaha FJR, maybe the old 1200, possibly 1300
>>28019388>Oh damn, that's awesome, usually don't find bikes that well cared for, good find.The bike was pretty clearly dropped as there's crack on the plastics n all that as well as pitting on the forks and some seriously oxidized hardware here and there from the guy leaving parked at the beach. Still looking to set aside some time off from work to take off the forks and sand down the triple tree + repaint. Might also see if I can get a hardware kit to replace all the rusty bolts too.>The zx6r is better for putting you in the pocketWhat does this mean>the 750 is an amazing squid missile lolshame the pretty blue frame makes it such a worry not to drop it, I've heard 750's are great for the track>I actually don't ride super fast>Most rides I don't break 135I thought I was a squid for breaking 110 every ride, texas is different >_>>I genuinely hope I didn't offend you or make you feel like shitidk why I would be offended lol>>28018912genuinely think the back looks like a custom job
>>28019399>yamaha FJRholy shit it might have been this!!those tail lights look like that, some kind of spiderlooks sick as fuck
>>28019400>custom jobnta but that was my guess too. that time frame of sport bikes has plenty of niche forums where 55 year olds make custom tail/subframes just cause they can. I've seen this with vfrs, for example.
>>28019410this pic is exactly why I thought of that, mid 2000's was insane for sportbikes I would give anything to have been an adult through that era
>>28019377thats what I was thinking, the guy sounds stupid and doesnt even know the proper terminology for whatever he's talking aboutim gonna pay $450 but even this feels wrong deep down in my gutbut maybe he didnt fuck anything up and all he fucked around with was the cylinder head casehe did say the bottom part of the engine looked solid so he didnt touch itthat leads me to believe he only opened up the top cylinder head case and fiddled with some gears
>>28019400Clean the forks with triple zero steel wool (clean the shaving dust off after). You can fiberglass the back side of the fairing crack to hold it together, then touch it up with color and clear. New hardware will brighten it up for sure if the bolts are rusty.>The pocketRace position basically.I'm not going to lay the 750 over, I just meant that it's better for street. I'll be doing my track and lot practice with the zx6. Probably will get sliders for the 750 though. Don't get me wrong, the 750 is a great track bike, the zx6 just is better for me personally on track.Texas is different. Lol. 4 minute mark. https://youtu.be/_hIoLs62O1Q?si=wxUnQD4oT5o7NFiL>Idk why I would be offended I guess if you actually are a female you wouldn't be offended at me thinking you were.Do you still have the R3?
>>28017332DO I HOLD OUT AND SAVE MONEY FOR DREAM BIKE ( INDIAN SCOUT )OR DO I COPE WITH A 1999 HONDA MAGNA 750? ONLY THING STOPPING ME IS PATIENCE.

New hardware will brighten it up for sure if the bolts are rusty.thank you so much for the tips, find it really tough to find decent advice on this sort of thing. Everything I saw onlijne was saying to hit it with tin foil and metal polish which didn't sound quite right>Race position basically.That's a new one to me lol.>I'm not going to lay the 750 over, I just meant that it's better for the street.It seems implied on the trackdays subreddit that if you're regularly riding track you're guaranteed to layerdown eventually. I trust your ability to not drop bikes tho (outside of parking lots)>4 minute markcomfy, don't think I'd be able to own a sportbike in a place that flat. I'd be chasing the sunset on the horizon and on the tach>Do you still have the R3?I gave it to my best friend provided he pays for the valve job (~$300) He got his license this year but wants to get a drz400 for offroad shit. We figured the R3 would be a good sunday rider for him to get his general riding/wrenching skills practiced while he gets his other financials sorted out. If he ever outgrows it I'll probably just PNO it and take it out for stunt practice.
>>28019440R6 Race isn't even unrestricted, it comes with the same exhaust and ECU as before you just don't get any lights. GYTR isn't sold through regular dealers.You can already buy an MT09 and put clipons on it.

>>28018881That's a good looking bike. I think I like the CBR in terms of looks the most out of the big three SS.
>>28018881is the CBR just really small, or is that KTM really big?
wish i had an analogue tach bros...

>>28019414>tfw born too late to witness pauly and d-mann ripping
>>28018912>>28019409I could have been the FJR, or maybe a VFR. But no, I say it's a ZZR 1200.
>>28019593Was looking too. Front indicator fairings seal the deal for me.

>>28019456No problem, I don't know everything but I'll help with what I can. Tin foil actually will work, but steel wool is better for fine oxidation/rust.>Track That is correct, the more you do track the more likely you are to layerdown but I'm not putting the 750 on track.I was trying to drag knee in the parking lot on my zx6 that day, and I'm my defense I did drag knee, I just had the bike on top of me. Lending the R3 to your buddy was probably the correct move there.

>>28020257It's just that any glove without palm sliders are retarded in 2024.These are hardly even a motorcycle glove other than being able to punch mirrors with your carbon knuckle protector, who the fuck would buy gloves that have like as much mesh as leather.

>>28020370Ive started waving at any motorized two wheel vehicles Why not? They are taking the added risk of not being in a car so I think they deserve it. Also scooter riders are often cute ladies. I can tell it makes them feel good to be waved at by a big bike. I dont wave at ebikes though

If he were to try and part it out for money I wouldn't stop him, but he's really close to me like a brother so he tends to have my best interest in mind. Which as of right now would be to keep the R3 alive as long as possible to spite its history, we both wanna see how long it can go for because the engine is in really good quality for what it's been put through
