>>28025365That's great since my life is a constant downhill. >>28025371I know something about a moment of inertia. Since the 21" rim and tire would be thinner and lighter than 17" rim and tire in this case, the moment of inertia could stay almost same as the original. I have a rear tire on the front rim since there was only one size in stock at the time I last bought new tires. I didn't find the exact mass of the existing tire online but the chart says that the 21" tire could weight half of that 17" tire.>>28025409The biku is too fast to turn anyway so slower tuning may not be a problem.

>>28025588I had some coffee but the VTEC woke me up more.>BWOOOOOOORRRRNK>>28025544If you're going to get a beemer get a Boxer or an I4. If you just want an 800cc ptwin ADV the Suzuki peestorm 800DEadniggers is just as good and a lot cheaper.
>>28025597You'll like it.
>>28025544>>28025603how about a 2008-2013 F650GS? Twin-cylinder rotax engine that's actually just a slightly detuned 800.
>>28025593I'll take it you just need to ship it to the UK. Do you have a few thousand pounds to spend on the shipping.
>>28025612ALL the beemer ptwins are lame. At that power level I'd get a V-Strom 650 (road only) or a T7 (actual offroading).
>>28025588
>>28025621>ALL the beemer ptwins are lamereally tho? the 360 crank sounds neat with an exhaust, has about the same power as an SV650, fuel under the seat for lower center of gravity, weighs 30lbs less than the vstrom and the build quality isn't jap shit. heated grips and toggleable ABS switch standard

Any colorado boys interested in a ride next weekend? Maybe pikes peak or squaw pass? Seasons about to come to an end
White zx6r bro, you asked about exhaust for your 636.Full system will give you more horsepower, will be louder, and will require a tune. I use the mail in ECU tuning service from 2 wheel dyno works. You can either get the de-catted headers or hollow out the cat on your stock headers and and unclip the cables for the exhaust valve. The 2024 636 was fucked with emissions, so that might be the way to go. Or you can just get a slip on and call it a day. You can typically, depending on the slipon and how the exhaust is sectioned up on you bike, put a slipon and see how you like. Then do full headers and a tune later if you want. Some bikes you can hollow out the cat and unclip the exhaust valve cables to disable the flow valve.With two wheel dyno works tune, you will also need to block off the PAIR valve system. It's basically the secondary air injection system. It's on the valve covers. You just take the hoses off and put rubber caps over the ends, or buy the block off plates.
>>28025544>800why not the 900? Or a 850? It's the same bike but with a higher numer (=better)
>>28025631i do berieve I have permission to shit on Suzuki after owning one
>>28025416Do NOT come
>>28025639I can't. I'm on a boat. :(
>>28025578>>28025603>>28025650This is already too expensive for my budget, if I'm paying over 13k I may as well buy another car if I'm honest.I really should just get a 7k A2 bike and be done with it, maybe the nx500 or the 390 adventure with the centrifuge clutch may be a good idea.
>>28025631>>280256511. so much plastic for a bike that had an msrp of like $14k2. factory bolts and hardware rusting after living in states that barely gets rain3. front calipers are built like shit and need a rebuild after like 15k miles (the pistons don't retract all the way and drag) 4. the clutch is loud as fuck and sounds like rod knock5. ABS is ancient and slow6. oil magically spitting up into the airbox7. weak ahh fork seals leaking after a very gentle 15k~ miles (no slamming into curbs, ditches, potholes, harsh wheelie drops)it's comfy I guess. the 1000s didn't even get cruise control until 2020 and the 650 doesn't have it. "touring bike" btw, might as well get an Aprilia caponord
>>28025674if you want an A2 compliant bike then why go with a middleweight adventure bike? Get some used shitbike
>>28025674>I may as well buy another car if I'm honest.

>>28025696Yo
>>28025693Cheers - reckon I can find one in that price range that isn't Cat D / a complete shitter?
>>28025691Literally buy a Suzuki GN125
>>28025700Very comfy, fren
>>28025691Just rent one then>>28025677Sad to hear
>>28025691They're kind of all the same, except specialized machines like dirt bikes, scoots and the Varadero. Look for something cheap nearby or get a cub if you're a weeaboo.

There was a DRZ-400 for 5K a few months ago, I thought "That's robbery" and didn't buy it, now I regret it because they're basically gone here. I haven't even seen one new in like three monthsWhat the fuck is going on, are dual sports that hot, now?

>>28025812DRZ is about to get an update, probably going to drop any day now. Rumors are fuel injection at least. Might be why the market is weird. I talked to a Zuki dealer and he told me he can't even order any new DRZs right now.
>>28025696>gamer mouse on wheels.Bro delete this right now you're hurting me
>>28026147A soft tire is for riding on hard terrain and a hard tire is for riding on soft terrain. On a smooth mx track the ground is going to give when you hit the throttle so you want the tire knobs to be rigid. If you take that sam hard rubber to rocky terrain the knobs will shear off

Which one would be a better first bikeKawasaki 300 (2016)orKawasaki 500 (2005)both are around the same price, and despite the 500 probbaly being faster, it's also older and might not be faster than a modern 500

>>28026194Why not lose weight? I dropped 60 pounds last year.
>>28024949>>28024945Its pretty much always speed.
>>28025458In her defense, that's probably the most serious situation she has ever been in. Most people go through life never having anything truly stressful happen to them directly.
I work a full time job but want to learn to be a bike mechanic without spending a ton of money on school.
>>28026209i have a treadmill at home, but you really think i can lose weight after 30?everythings all fucked up now, can't even get my cock hard bro, life sucks when you hit this age
>>28026182It was 92 here, today.
>>28026228>life sucks when you hit this age>im a fat old 31 year old manCome on dude
>>28026232It looks like it's going to be 46 in the morning on my commute, glad I bought a warm jacket.
>>28026232>weather sucks >euro norms >high taxesGod I hate Europe so much.
>>28026223Buy broken shitbikes to fix and sell.
>>28026228I did it at 36 in four months eating nothing but McDonald’s every day and yes, I mean that statement very literally.
>>28026235 Michigan sucks sometimes doesn’t it?
>>28026245People seriously underestimate calorie counting. Multivitamin + autistically track EVERYTHING (and count macros) and it's very doable. The downside is this is arguably a (slight) eating disorder and it will affect your relationship with food, but it's better than being fat.
>>28024521This thing looks excellent in green/marketplace/item/1088956969616411
>>28026253Yes, you’re exactly right but there is also the element of self control or lack there of. I had poor self control so going to McDonald’s and being handed predetermined portions with relatively consistent calorie counts was the key for me. If I made food at home I wouldn’t be able to stop myself from eating a little extra in every meal or grabbing a small snack that I shouldn’t have had.
>>28026182im ready
what teh FUC is that?!https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mcy/d/castro-valley-1985-cagiva-650-alluzurra/7788037559.html
>>28026293a headache
>>28026155Maybe when they finally hit the show floor I'll be able to pick up a carb DRZ cheap?
>>28026155Efi, better suspension, and a 6th speed and it will fill a great gap in the market
>>28026080The thing I wonder and the thing I hate the most:Why is everything a fucking sticker now. I saw an old DR650 that had painted decals.
>>28025700we can tell you just busted a load in there anon, you're not fooling anyone.Nice volume tho
>>28026181actually what was Ducati doing in WW2? probably got pressed into building aero engines etc.
>>28026168Well there's the Buell Hammerhead>1190cc V-Twin>185HP
I was riding downhill twisty. Very tight sharp right incoming. I downshifted to 2nd gear while squeezing the front brake. Rear wheel kicked out to the left skidding, still hit apex. Is this what backing it in is? Is this what it feels like to experience a sliver of racer powet?
>>2802623540 is my limit for commuting. I have a pretty nice layered textile jacket for winter. It's a little thick but nice otherwise.>>28026239Sorry anon. I had the luxury of being born in Texas, but it might be cucked here pretty soon.>>28026253You gotta do what you gotta do. I just loosely track stuff in my head, can't be bothered with writing it all down, and it's kept me at a healthy weight for 6 years now. >>28026273Looks comfy. Nice dual sport.>>28026339>he saved my picture
>>28026367>he saved my pictureI've got most of the gixxer pics saved, that blue frame is sexxxxxx
>>28025244This has to be the most spectacular t7 crash on dbt yet. 12 o'clock whiskey throttle wheelie out of a rut I failed gassing out over. Got away with some gravel embedded in my back and some scratches, nothing else. Thanks to >>28025470 anon for the first aid in the pharmacy parking lotAudio version here (it's worth it) https://streamable.com/c5t1pzPretty fun day of riding all things considered
>>28026376Damage. Was able to mostly bend back into place, still a bit cocked so I'll take it apart tomorrow to see if I can glue/ziptie the plastics together and straighten the tail tidy
>>28026361Yes.
>>28026376If your bike isn't coming out from under you offroad you ain't really trying22amyp
Do you change tires yourself? I've done it a couple times on dual sports with tire spoons and it's a massive pain in the ass. Thinking about bringing them to a shop, but I'll feel like a pussy if I do that.
Something comical about a 45 year old boomer riding a japanese motorcycle and calling her Suzy, followed by racist remarks about the japs
>>28026371Right? It's one of my favorite things about that bike. It's looking really good now that I got all the factory stickers off it and the scratches touched up.>>28026376>>28026380Holy hell anon. No damage to the side fairings or tank? I see you have a cage but still, that was a nasty fall for that T7.Glad you're (mostly) okay.>>28026387I've changed a tire with bars one time at home and it sucked. I have a tire machine at work that I use.
>>28026376rip the tenny
the sp2 fits in a kei van confirmed
>>28026417anybody know if a scion tc will fit a motorcycle?
>>28026201>>28026228Bad troll is bad
>>28026425its up to you to try it and let us know
>>28026408The left side crash bar is pushed in (again). That's an easy fix with a couple of ratchet straps. I'm astounded at how well the tenny holds up to damage, and I'm half convinced nothing can kill this bike>>28026416the tenny remains stronk, just has some battle scars
>>28026376Did you even stand up when you went across that? Holy fuck are you retarded
>>28026459Yeah I was standing. Looking back I think I hesitated and ended up splitting the difference between full sending a wheelie and taking it slow and steady, so I just gassed straight into the rut and leaned back. Luckily I didn't get bonked by the windscreen.
>>28026387Yeah, tube type are real easy, tubeless are a bit of a tighter stiffer fit and kinda suckTubeless on a tube wheel is fucking hell
>>28026447Damn, Tenny stronk indeed. They seem to be very durable off road but still nice to rip around on the roads.If it's already been bent once, it might be prone to cracking. A torch might help prevent that, but you'll probably have to pull the cage off for that to not torch the bikeMy buddy crashed his CBR 600 the track recently and absolutely twisted the rear subframe but somehow managed to get it straight again with a torch.
>>28026387nah. what are you trying to prove, and who are you trying to prove it to
>>28026387Some dualsport tires are INSANELY fucking stiff and you need them really warm, and a lot of lube, and preferably a machine. I've got changing nice soft 17" track tires down pretty easy now, 4 spoons/irons is borderline cheating.
>>28026376Pol Tarres is that you?
could one, hypothetically, install a batwing cowl on a dirt/enduro bike
Shit I'm too sore after riding. I need a gym membership.
idk i just can't take dirt bikes seriouslycomically thin seatscheapo plastic looking fairingsdinky little thumper enginesthey're just toys
>>28026543All bikes are toys.
>>28026549nope
>>28026543I commute on my toy and I love it.
>>28026543Yeah, they are. Toys or race bikes. Bare minimum needed to go fast and jump. Plastic fairings to take abuse and get going again with no damage.
>>28026543aren't fairings all made of plastic one way or another
>>28026535just ride more and your body will adjust. or fix your ergos/seat. I can easily ride 650 miles in a day with minimal soreness on a comfy bike. 1100 miles in 15 hours with simply a recovery day after.Or you're just old.
>>28026543>cheapo plastic looking fairingWhy yes, I can replace all of my fairings for 130 bucks total. How did you know?
why does it feel like Yamaha is the rich guy brand and Kawasaki is for the poors
>>28026600because you don't see the $30,000 supercharged bikes in Kawi's lineup
>>28026408I appreciate Dunlop for making tyres for every purpose for every size but.The GPR300 is famously skiddish on its side anon. Ari Henning tested it years ago
>>28025679Here used bikes are basically a 6yo bike with 20 to 30k km that barely costs 2000€ less than a new bike without all the baggage those carry.
It's almost summer and I've noticed all the fun bikes have gone up 50% in value at least. Found this for defent price though. Looks fun.
is a bike having no windshield too noticeable on the freeways?I'm not sure on which version of the SV650 to get, the S or the N modeli dont want my arms falling off if i decide to commute on it on the free way and wish i had some fairings to break up the wind
>>28026754Is that a brembo master?
>>28026778Depends on how hard you ride and how far. If you're just chilling at legal speeds or riding for less than an hour at a time then yeah nakeds are fine. Aero matters gradually more on long rides, and really suddenly above 80mph. The one naked bike I have ever questioned why it even exists is the ZH2. Going 150 on a naked bike would just hurt.
>>28026376Recover well anon>>28026417Show us more pic of the sp2
>>28026754I kind of miss that classic bike style. Have thought many times about selling my 125 and daily ride a classic again but the 125 is so convenient that hardly anything beats it and will be a downgrade.
did you SUZUKI today
>>28024521Honda hawk tuah hahahaha
>>28026837?
>>28026376Anon I have to ask, what the fuck was going to happen after you bounced the front wheel off the uphill part of the crossing?
>>28026842hawk tuah and spit on that thing
Thought getting a sport tourer would make me stop wanting a sportbike but now I want one even more, pushing it to limiter and feeling how high it can rev is addictingOh well
why are all harley riders so fat and slow?
>>28026883>Thought getting a sport tourer would make me stop wanting a sportbikelollmao
>>28026883post revlimiter action
>>28026589paul is so cool
>>28025705Yeah, using plastic to hide the steel tube and give the appearance of a twin spar aluminium frame is so tasteful.Sure, it's a nice looking bike, but it's well overpriced for what it is. It is by no means a great set of wheels.
>>28025696>>28026035
>>28026908Not that good at riding, mostly first and second gear rev limiter just getting on the highway, I just like the feeling of looking down and seeing I’ve still got 3K to go on the limiter>>28026907I figured it’d make sense, something that’s a lot more tame and less peaky so the adrenaline isn’t as addicting but still capable and enjoyable on the highway
>>28026924>missing tail piece
>>28026880Had to google it.Some faggot zoomer shit, good job.
>>28026431>he's scared of turning 30 kek

>>28026788thanks, thats actually helpful advice
>>28026778>>28026788>>28027115Seating position matters too. 85 on a husky 701 feels fine, 85 on a yamaha bolt is aids.
