>>28033952Radial calipers means the caliper is mounted with the bolts parallel to the wheels. Axial calipers are mounted with the bolts parallel to the axle. Buell uses axial calipers but the disc is mounted to the outer rim of the wheel instead of on the centre hub

I lot of people are complaining about the empty space under the seat on the R9, but to me it just means more space when you're wrenching on it.

>>28034118This sort of bikini fairing is so underrated. ADVs and "crossovers" basically had to reinvent them, along with "hypernotsonakeds" like the Tuonafish and ZH2.
>>28034074To allow you to pass by narrow spots that limbs or trees/rocks that you would other wise have to run over.It's also incredibly light so changing direction is a breeze and damn near effortless compared to street rims.
>>28034087No, he says it's a 2005 but it's a 201+ model. I don't know what the fuck is a radial disc but it's not a buell style disc for sure.

the wikipedia page for some of MotoGP's older (specifically 1968) seasons claims that basically virtually every manufacturer entered for at least a race or two including Monark, Jawa, CZ, BMW, Triumph, Velocette and BSA among others. but i can't find photos of hardly any of the bikes they used then if its even accurate.i think it may have been conflating the Sidecar division with the regular 500ccs in the case of BMW. that many different different bikes at the same time in one crossover is wild though.

Hey /dbt/, I just bought my first motorcycle. It's a Honda XL400V TRANSALP from the early 90s. I will be using it for riding around the city and the occasional weekend trip. I'm pretty stoked about it and hope to make some more riding friends in the future. I will eventually sell it at a loss or trade it in when I am ready to upgrade to a bigger engine. Does anyone know how to meet other people to ride with?
>>28034697gay bar
in the end, we are invisible to car and truck drivers arent we?
>>28034708Yes.
>>28034697Good on you man, slap those trannies.
>>28034697thats a horrible choice for city
Should I buy an XT550, every 600/600E available locally is overpriced or a shitbike
>>28034746buy a shitbike, or maybe a tt600 (also shitbike potential)
>>28034758I actually have an XT already, the frame has some issues but it drives straight so i figured i should make it roadworthy and swap over all the good parts to an intact frame if one ever comes up
>>28034763your garage craves for more xtsget them all
>flyoversdoes anyone else get terrified taking these?just had a nightride and I'm banking probably 40 degrees or so with the road just thinking I'm fucked if I lost control or had to dodge a carroads like 75 feet up and wind gets pushy, even wigs me out when I'm in a car on rainy days
>>28034733wanted to tour as well

>got drunk and impulse brought some random cheap motorbike>drive it all over my country over past couple months>picrel from todayMotorbikes are cool I'm gonna buy something faster though, mines a 150cc and only does about 120km/hr max. Its a suzuki. Plus it's total shit on gravel and off road even though I just drive it everywhere lol, I think I'm going to buy a dual sport but they're ugly as fuck.
>>28034807From today as well
>>28034809I'll post some more photos just for fun
>>28034821I'm listening
>>28034824To lana del rey
>>28034807hell yeah brother
>>28034697Congrarulations, but why not the xl600v? Anyways, good bike! As a fellow Transalper I must tell you - ride solo and explore shit. Dont wait for people to ride with who cancel on you last minute or dont feel like riding if it is anything but a sunny day.
>>28034697>>28034855also, dont know about the 400 model specifically, but read up on the CDIs. You might want to flip them onto the side. They are mounted under the seat and the pressure can, over time, weaken the soldering points.
i bought a bike today, my first

>>28034991you're going to have to bend it bro. sorry whoever designed your bike included a mechanical colon of despair for you to deal with. after you bend it and get the nut off try a different more serviceable mounting position lol
>>28035012I managed to get it out. I think they assembled the internals and then welded the two halves together in the factory. Getting this back together will be funAre ignition leads meant to just be exposed wire on the connector?
>>28034650DR. I'm thinking about getting one as my next bike. T7s are cool, but I don't really get the point of 450lb offroad bikes. The DR is about as heavy as I'd want to go offroad.

i like how it doesnt have the big mouth intake like everyone else.

I haven't been able to ride all week. My bike is lonely in the shed.
the mini b-king is calling me anons, i know the hornet is the better naked but i just think it looks way cooler and reading about it online i don't think it would be a bad bike if i just worked on the front brake, right? and suzuki is still a reliable brand so as long as the previous owner didn't fuck it up badly it should still be very reliable as a daily bike, right?
>>28035115yea suzuki is really good
how many bikes do you guys own, you know you can only ride one at a time right
What do you guys wear for a riding jacket

It's fine either way as I haven't hit the road in a minute so would be good to do some adventuring at a slower pace. I also happened to find a cool biker meet spot nearby, so hope to meet those guys when my bike arrives.Do you have any recommendations or know how I can start attaching racks, lights, USB ports to the bike, is it easy to do like any other bike? Also how have you found the bike when riding in urban areas? I might have some more questions about it, are you on an /o/ discord or something?
>>28035278>o discordnigger like lmao just post in the threads
>>28035278>/o/ discord or somethingthere is if you like faggot cartoon shitask the flakerhes a regular

>>28035216shouldnt you be at your arbeit mehmet
>>28035357Im not a regular nor am i a flakeIf you go to discord youre a tranny, i went there briefly to fulfill an objective which was find r6 chomo and a few othersMission accomplished, havent used it since
>>28035278The bike can do everything you want. If you struggle with something its a skill issue. It may not be as comfortable to drive as a modern bike but dont worry, its capable. The clutch spring on the xl600v is pretty strong, if you have issues with clutching in urban areas, lube your cable or replace it. The 5-Speed gearbox is okay - you can do plenty in 1st gear, 50kph in 3rd is okay, maybe avoid 4th in town, especially on the 400.I mounted a usb charger to the handlebar and added the engine guards and put auxiliary lights on them.For the wiring you have to remove the seat and tank and ideally funnel them trough a rubber hose between frame and the airbox. Be careful not to break the plastic attachment points of the fairing when you lift out the tank. I sugfest you get the Haynes Manual somewhere online - if that applies to the 400v as well. My Givi Trekker Lights were not a good fit with the length of the respective wires. I could only mount the relais switch in an awkward position in front of the fork, but wasnt happy with how it pulled the connectors when cornering. So I cut/extended the wires to custom length and mounted the relais switch next to the battery. Getting aftermarket lights - your mileage may vary.Definetly not a bad thing to dump some power into when its hot. On the 600v, the regulator tends to overheat since the alternator is a bit too strong and the regulator is located next to the hot exhaust.When it comes to racks - mine came with a Givi rack, that required to lift the rear indicators a couple of cm. Maybe get some soft bags for starters?I am not on any discord but lurk here quite a bit. Where are you based?
>want to go on longer trips on my dual sport and maybe motocamp>seat is extremely uncomfortable and I can only last about 2 hours on it>”comfort” seat is 500 fucking dollarsShould I try and convert my DRZ400 (sm) to an S and invest in a bigger tank and a comfort seat (probably $2k total) or just buy a 650 or something?
>>28035385you could remove the seat cover, most of the time it's just clipped, then cut out the foam of the seat and add gel instead and then to top it off just throw some sheep wool over it when you've reassembled it.
>>28034478>>28034492There’s a reason Triumphs don’t hold their value.
>>28035385Buy a 650, there are comfier seats and 5gal tanks.

What does a breadbox do?
>>28035439It's more like an American MT10, a fast goonbike that is mostly locked out of sport tourer status by its abhorrent fuel range on a tank of gas. An American Z900RS is an air cooled Harley cruiser.
>>28034687Trump sticker probably came with the bike. If it's a brown dude selling it it's trash. If the dude is missing teeth it's trash. If he's any type of fuck up in his life it's trash.
I'm trying to stay strong bros but it's hard. I can do all the mechanical shit but I'm trying my hand at wiring and it's fairies. I'm sitting here trying to put a monolithic brake light on my Sportster and they have a double 3 cable for the rear brake lights that I'm trying to make a 5 cable connection work for. Running lights work, turn signals work, but when I brake both turn signals turn on instead of the brake light getting brighter AAAAAAAAHHHHHH
>>28034306that area is stunningalso hello fellow kentuckian

>>28035687share some with the rest of us wtf
>>28035688self heil
>>28035687They better all be r1's or your a bitch
>>28035694You're * GOD DAMN IT
>>28035681very true
>>28035694Guess I'm just a bitch with a ZX10R then
>>28035711After some reflection, you're right. Six R1's, an MT10, and a ZX10 would be a fine stable.
>>28035711i guess
>>28035637Incoherent seething.
>>28035216im a non-eu fag and all of the good XTs are tucked away leaving only the mad max monstrosities up for sale, the trouble being i have no idea what im importing if someone doesnt check it out
Someone say indian anon?!?!?!?
>>28035744no. nobody said that
The hole is even weirder in person
>>28035748What? You don't miss me?
>>28035749Not a fan of the cyclops headlight either, looks odd but I suppose it just mirrors the rest of the lineup now
>>28035754The rear looks okay but mostly just because it’s underdeveloped, can’t say I really like the looks but it does seem like a great casual trackday bike
>>28035756>a great casual trackday bikeyou mean like the r6 already was
>>28035761I prefer i4’s myself anon don’t get me wrong, but the “usable power” meme fits real well with new emissions regulations so I can understand why it’d be a desirable model
>>28035780Define "usable power"
>>28035789from what I understand it’s mostly about having torque down low and a steady rise of power across the powerband unlike proper supersports like the R6 that are known to be peaky but relatively weak outside of that peakI don’t want to argue about it, I don’t care. I just understand why reddit street riders might care about that
>used T7s still very expensive Price crash when
>>28035133Sweater underneath my summer jacket, simple as

>>28035805Sounds like you have a skill issue tbqh
>>28035242What's in the suitcase
>>28035815Probably only going to get worse, they're only getting more popular with adventure-dads (high income market).
>>28035832Crayola 152 pack with only aquamarine crayons for filling in paint imperfections.
The shitty adhesive on my Cardo failed, leaving it flapping in the breeze by the wires. I gorilla super glued it in placs and am waiting for it to dry before riding.
>>28035399Sounds like something I could do, but it seems like seat width is the bigger factor over material.>>28035412I’m very tempted. I’d end up selling the 400 most likely
>bike in the shop for the next two weeks waiting on part deliveryI HATE THE SUPPLY CHAIN FAILUREI HATE THE SUPPLY CHAIN FAILUREI HATE THE SUPPLY CHAIN FAILURE
>>28035815NeverHere's the thing I've found out: Even if price of every single luxury item crashes because people are more worried about food than TV or video games, motorcycles are never crashing again. Ever. People now recognize Motorcycles as a valid form of transportation for poorfags just like they do in the third world, and Dual Sports/Adventure bikes are the ultimate two-wheeled SUVs for poorfags who want to stack bags or put their home office on their bike when they go out.If anything, the baggie market will crash before the T7 crashes.

>>28035937I DON'T CARE HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE IMPACTED BY HURRICANESI DON'T CARE IF THE ROAD IS DANGEROUS FOR TRUCKERSI WANT MY PACKAGE NOOOOOOOOW!
>>28036024I wouldn't give more than like $2k for a KLR
I installed a leo vince gp corsa evo. It sounds nice but holy shit if you take out the DB killer and don't wear ear plugs your ears will bleed after 15 minutes on the highway.
The R1250RS actually sounds good with an Akrapovic slipon. I may pull the trigger if I like how it rides tomorrow.
big innovations in the world of pit lane comfort
>>28036024I'd get the 2014. A lot of people hate the way they look, but I love the 'offroad battleship' look they have going on. The gen 1 was like 20lbs lighter, though.
>>28034481lolEverything but the main frame, the gas tank, the bodywork+brackets, and the suspension internals is recycled from either the MT09 or the R1 and R6. I've heard one claim the swingarm is actually different but if it is it's the same castings with some internal bracing modified.>>28034013The problem is really less that it's ugly but that it's like that because the engine/gearbox geometry is totally archaic and uncompact for a sport bike. I don't know why they need to have high frame members without the engine pushing them up there. That they didn't extend the fairings a few inches to cover it is pretty ridiculous though.>>28035756It's overkill for a casual trackday bike though, but I don't at all understand the weird ass standards by which instagram race larpers judge what is a good bike for them, it mostly just seems to be what the badge is.
>>28036057hell yeah, if you do post about it. Going to BMW tomorrow to sit on some as well, might take one for a spin. But I personally like the looks of the 1200 more. and it's cheaper.
>>28035754>Not a fan of the cyclops headlight either,Yea r6 has two lamps they're trying to save money!
if Yamaha is blueHonda is redKawasaki is greenwhat color is Suzuki?
>>28036180yellowbut back in the days it was different
>>28036160they’re taking cues from the superior GSXR brand

>>28036084I keep a hammock in my truck for random innawoods naps
>>28036207Grand Trunk makes camping hammocks that pack down really well for putting on bikes too.
>>28036203I hate being reminded that IDs are SEAmonkeys.
>>28036239I'm boring and don't camp with my hog(motorcycle)
>>28036278It's really nice
Just rode the R7 and it felt just like my R3 but with enough power for the freeway, really fucking boring. Sport seating was nice though and the clutch was really really light
Thoughts on a hyper? Thinking of selling my honda, quitting my job and getting a buzzcut
>>28036295why would you want one? sounds like a lawnmower, goes about as fast and starts hurting your ass if you drive more than 20 miles
>>28036295Why would you buy this slow ass piece of shit when the gsxr750 exists
>>28036305Namefag fuckoff
>>28036295I'd recommend either getting a smaller and more flickable sumo, or getting a Multistrada. This is kind of a weird in-between.
>>28036281You don't even need an ADV for it in the US. There are National Forest campgrounds you can just ride or drive right in to on street tires.
>>28036309Love me a gixxer 7fiddy
>>28036311you know when I hit the bullseye. otherwise instead of refuting my points I get something like this lol
>>28036336nta kys
Little bitch is so easy to bully lol.
20,000$ for this
Risitas fag
> bike is bad if it has sufficient stopping power
>>28036356EV economics and performance are driven by available battery tech. They might be good at 4x the J/kg density, 4x the J/m^3 density, and half the $/kg.
>>28036370>>28036373>>28036376cope, fuck e-shit. you could have had a real bike
Nobikes tend to complain about bikes not being real.

>P-P-POST BIKE!!11
>>28036379Fucking ricer
>>28036203>NowIsn't this old news?Also didn't they start this trend with Super Cub?
>>28036386Tell me how do you sit on this bike without squishing your balls.
>>28036391That’s the neat part, you don’t
too easy
>>28036386Are bike lanes there designed for motorcyclists?If you did the same here in swamp germany I'd call you a faggot.>>28036394I'm not a fan of CBT so I decided against buying this bike, this was the only downside it had that I'm not willing to tolerate.
>>28036393>IT HAS SUFFICIENT STOPPING POWER OKAY!11kek
I was skeptical at first but I'm slowly getting better at it.
>>28036399I’m short so that probably helps with the cbt problem
>>28036402take off that ugly high rise fendermakes you shit look like a mosquito
>>28036416I was thinking of putting all aftermarket plastics on so I could keep the originals in mint. Not sure if that's a good idea or just a huge headache. What should I put on? A true enduro fender?
>>28036391isn't that part of the fun?

>>28036399No they aren’t designed for motos. Lanesplitting is not allowed either
>>28034199I get in my 100k car and enjoy the drive.
Should I get a 88 Honda Hawk RC3195 Honda Nighthawk 75086/96 VFR interceptor 99 Magna crusier First bike, I rode 250cc 2 strokes a lot but now getting into street. I'm 25 and respectful of the machine. I wanna be more social so street bikes it is. Which of these would be good for someone like me?I really like V4 / I4 engines.
