Stop me from buying a sportbike as my daily driver. I'm already 30, my back can't take it but my heart needs it.
>>28200264Have fun
>>28200264Depends on what baek.
>>28200271Turbo busa with knobbies
>>28200264Anon... When you think about it, it's really that simple. What are the options anyway?
>>28200271>>28200275R9, it's THE one bike I'm set on.
>>28200278Ghey
>>28200278You can save $2k and your back with the XSR.You can also craft some custom fairing for it by yourself
>>28200282No, I quite certainly cannot craft custom fairing.And the R9 has better suspensions and brakes than the XSR and XSR GP both.
>>28200282Look a lot better without that tranny on there
>>28200289Stop seeing trannies everywhere, only real males and real females ride Yamaha.
>>28200285>I quite certainly cannot craft custom fairingWrenchlet
How much can handle bars be raised on the cb500f? I want a more comfortable riding position and the ones I have sat on felt nice but not quite where I like the handle bars.
>>28200264sport tour
>>28200293
>>28200264>>28200278If you have money to burn on a new bike then wait for the latest Panigale v2 next year. It's probably more comfortable and goes fast enough
>>28200264>>28200278Or the RS660, that's probably a good daily too. I'd get one but the dealer is 3 hours away
I've made a new meme text suggestions?
>>28200340>>28200338I live in italy, with an aprilia and a ducati dealer next door, but I don't have panigale money and like the triple better than the twin RS660, I tried that bike.
here's the original pic with some Korean subtitles
>>28200352Have you tried the triple too?
>>28200323I want the R6 so bad bros. This bike just screams I'M SPECIAL, NOT LIKE THE OTHERS, SEE THAT HONDA 600 OVER THERE? IT'S FOR NPCS, I'M ONE IN A MILLION, I'M RARE
>>28200357On an MT09, yes. I really liked it on that bike, but I want my next bike to be fared.
>>28200338Yeah!
>>28200362What bike do you have currently?
>>28200363Why do you need zip ties?
>>28200367Yes
>>28200364RE hunter 350, basically a scooter. It was my first bike.
>>28200347Yeah, no text, crashed motorcycle, and troon on a shoom sitting on one the cars
>>28200387Ayyy. You're the kd who larps as an operator
>>28200390NTA, but LARPing is fun as fuck. Besides, if you're going to spend all that cash on rifle plates and a carrier, you better damn well make sure it rides comfortable and you can still shoulder your rifle worth a shit.
>>28200416Cringe af.Sorry you weren't man enough to enlist
>>28200419> Sorry you weren't man enough to enlistI'm not. That shit did not look fun from the outside. I hope you all got paid degrees, decent (lol) healthcare, and minimal back/knee injures oit of the deal.
>>28200432Stay soft, kiddo
Do you insist on wearing safety gear on every ride?
>>28200416The other day them retarda accusing me of larping as a jsoc also forget that i was wearing a chest rig and they called it a plate carrierJust retard thingsAlso imagine being a ZOGbot in the current year, let alone any year in the past century ffsBut had i another timeline in which i went to live with my daddio in the usa, ida joined the marines probs after height schoolHeres a question for the >operator larp>shoomerflake cereal enjoyersAnd whatevers else gets thrown my way as flak What do you do that i dont?Show up to the draft notice?>mfw im inelgible and have a lifetime weapons banGet on my level, nigger>>28200432Once tou graduate the redpill and realize all wars are banker wars and Jesus Christ is King of kings, theres really little worth fighting for in this temporal shitscape, though some may try my critic isnt one of them and i doubt he squats more than 565lbs
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I want a fucking R6I can buy an R7 for now and then upgrade to R9Or I can buy first gen XSR900 and keep it because they're the same with the R9
>>28200455I dont understand a fucking word of this
>>28200458You didn't miss much. Some salty 88M is angry people are appropriating his culture, and everybody else is grumpy because it's too cold to ride.
>>28200452I did the majority of riding in a football jersey, shorts, birkenstocks and a full face helmet. Ive only had sport bikes, no cruisers.
>>28200275Fuck that shit
>>28200390Wrong guy newfagI know who you're talking about tho
>>2820026430 is not old enough to have back problems bro. Literally just lift weights. I'm 29 and I started doing deadlifts and immediately my back got so strong - I can ride my VFR for 6 hours straight without pain
>>28200474Lol. LMAO even. If you don't get why, dont worry about it, anon. Keep lifting. WAGMI.
>>28200455Dead lift > squats
>>28200474I thought VFR supposed to be comfy even if you have back problems

>>28200490Like you want a selfie or something? Kinda gay bro
>>28200196It's cold outside
>>28200490I don't typically like v-stroms, but the black/white combo gives it a retro-futurism vibe that's appealing to me, kind of like the Himalayan 451.
>>28200487I think he's talking about that guy with the camo and gas mask
>>28200541> CamoCheap rain jacket.> Gas maskWait, for riding?
>>28200541>>28200542I've seen plenty of camo in dbt. But I don't recall a gas mask
>>28200542>>28200544No, the guy just posted a selfie showing his uniform but covered his face with a gas mask then deleted.Some anon got obsessed (maybe risitas) and saved the pic and kept posting it a few times.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8LCg_XAx1IWhat's /o/ur opinion on CycleCruza? Is he legitimately insane? It's not like he can't afford anything better than an MT-07, he can probably buy any bike he likes. What's his problem? Is he based or cringe?
>>28200558Oh yeah! The brown Canadian guy that thought it was a flex lol. That was pretty sad.
>>28200492No, just numbers retard>>28200502Yeee boiiPOST MORE SIDECARS>>28200563Pretty surebhe wqs in multicam and CAF havent updatdd their camo in decades afaik Here is the r nine t sex machine i mentioned

>>28200560I respect the grind. >Is he legitimately insane?>Fast-boy channel #1032, hey lossers just got my S1000RR(financed), going to send it down the "twistis" and smash some mirrors like everyone else!He's fine. He found his YT niche that gets him the engagement. It seems like channels that do things on a budget do pretty well because most people are poor. CycleCruza also probably crossed the point where the motorcycle doesn't matter. He's just pragmatic now about his motorcycle choice. Pretty sure he has a video about how he used to be a fast boy too. By contrast the S1000RR YT channels yeeting their bikes off cliffs or smashing mirrors get mostly teens watching, because that's who seems to show up to meet those guys. Gixxer brah did a vid about some other fast boy channel and yeah they're toxic off camera. So being down to earth and riding bikes most people can afford is a niche people often over look.
Alright auction is about to go live.They go in lot # order so I never know if it will be on he block in 5 minutes or 2 hours.Today I'm watching 3 bikes.We've got lol roadkill GSXR1000
>>28200618There's also the CB-ack1000
>>28200620And the sweet sweet ZX14There's a few other bikes I'll be watching but these are the highlights for donors
>>28200617Cruza has 375k subs and all his videos get 5k views at best. His channel is dead.
>>28200620And yes theres visible engine damage and oil under it so that CBR would have to b pretty cheap to be worthwhile
What's the piggup trugg of bikes?
>>28200624Affiliate links are where most of the money is for motorcycle related content. Moto content is lower on the pay scale for YT. That's why so many moto channels shill so much shit in their descriptions.
Would it be possible to transplant a cdi from one bike to a different one? Specifically a 4 stroke wasted spark cdi onto a 2 stroke because the cdi for that one is adjustable. Both AC systems.
>>28200485It's more upright than most sportbikes but it still has clipons. You'll get more tired riding it than you would from an adventure bike
>>28200637Tuk tuk!
Current bids:Lol roadkill GSXR1000-.$125CB-ack1000- $80Sweet sweet ZX14- $325

>>28200645In theory yes but your biggest hurdle will be physical size / bolt hole pattern kind of shit.In an apocalypse you can wire up a camry ignition coil to an f150 and make it across the wastelands.It's just electrical pulses bro.
>>28200703Auction s live.Sweet 14 is about 30 minutesCb-ack is about an hour and 45 minutesGsx-roadkill is about 2 hours.

>>28200753 #Some auction results.Still watching but nothing.im interested coming up for like 30 minutes.Results for sweet sweet ZX14
First few bikes went for dirt.Like people forgot to login when the auction started.This bike caught me by surprise.Colorado is a bit of a journey but fucking 10 bucks?! Makes me wonder if thw road trip would have been worth it.I hadn't seen the listing previously so didn't know if it was burned out or what but after checking it was a good bike.

HELL YEAH BROTHERS
>>28200801Elaborate
>>28200854Yamaha = good
As promised, my new baek. Not showing the shame side, I need a new fairing (unless my neighbor who has a bodyshop manages to save it) as it's scratched and has a crack near the screw hole and a new mirror. But the sound is amazing, also I only need to change the chain since it's rusty, brake rotors, gears, tires, all pretty much brand new. She is a bit heavy, but I hope I get used to it.
>>28200873that's not fog
Is it useless to own a 4cl, 600cc and above supersport if I don’t plan to regularly track it? The closest track to me is 4+ hours away. My hope would be to track it at least once but it’d be used for California canyons and twisties primarily.
>>28200888is that why they're all crashed?
>>28200873That’s LA, San Diego is chillin
CB-ack!
>>28200954GSX-RoadkillI screen grabbed a bunch of random auctions.It's interesting to see where the bidders are from and what they're bidding on.Enduros are popular in Poland and Austria.Mexico and Guatemala like crotch rockets.Chile and Moldova like cruisers.
I don't want to flood the thread with auction results but dbt seems a little slow today so ill post if people are interested.
>>28201000I don't hate it. Better than guys spamming anime or bikes they don't own.Good luck my guy!
>>28201000keep postingpost bigger pics of the bikes if something particularly interesting comes up
>>28201000I'm sure /dbt/ is for you to blog about your bike and bike activities

>>28201040Y-yeah, imagine thatHeheHeh>>28201068Seems to be a recurring theme of sportbike crashing, no wonder their insurances are so high ffs fackin squidlets

>>28201170Depends
>>28200754FZRs are underrated today but back in the 80's they were the shit. Faired visceral screaming machines, the kinds that fathers didn't want their daugthers riding in the backseat.

>>28201321Yeah they doMust sound like a bag of nails and bolts in a dishwasher thoughFuck it I rev it out
Min/maxing every last opportunity to swap valve shims around so I don't have to buy as many. A lot of calculations but it's a snow day so fuck it.
>>28201183Look up poor little white guy. A fantastic film.>>28201241You cannot comprehend BSC
>>28201087You have to pay the $100 membership fee to see the live auction portion and what bikes ultimately sell for. I took screen shots of what random bikes sold for incase any other /dbt/ anons wanted to see if it was something they'd be interested in.>>28201040I didn't win any, wasn't too many that were close enough.Spending.$800 for a crashed bike that's 1,000 miles away and then trying to get it home burns up any savings.>>28201068I just have screen grabs from the finals, nothing besides what I've posted already in larger format.I have about 70 auctions.I'll post some at random but if you're looking at buying something specific I'll check if I have something close.95% are sport bikes.
>>28201363
>>28201364
>>28201367
>>28201379If it says "on reserve" then the reserve price wasn't met.Some bikes are on consignment and not owned by copart/crashedtoys and the owner has until 8 pm the following day to accept the high bid or no sale it.

>>28201545Holy shitHahahahahahahahaaahahahahahahahahahaHe actually searched for it.Thanks man, you made my night
This one was interesting.It's weird how people from United Arab emirates and Moldova were bidding on shit in Texas or Alabama.These guys were dueling it out at $100 increments. There's was another anon but he lost interest around $11k.So for $14k + copart fees the total was around $21k-ish.There's an option for $100 to have someone check out the bike before the auction so I hope they had done that and weren't paying for something they only saw on the internet
>>28201615>buy a totaled bike from the US for cheap>bring it into your poor shithole of a country>fix the bike with zip-ties and parts from china>sell it later for its full price like nothing ever happened >get rich>repeat
>>28201624Oh I guarantee that's what happens to these bikes that wind up in Mexico.But it's odd to see places like United Arab Emirates bidding in general or Austria/Poland bidding on what I see as common bikes that aren't going for any less than the average used market.Maybe I just don't realize what's available in euro markets compared to U.S. (?)

>watching dirt bike riders run from cops on youtube>they just stay on the fucking road and go 80mph max>take every turn at 5 mph>half of them wipe out on their first corner and get caught anywaysif you're gonna run from the cops, don't be a bitch, fucking hell. and get off the fucking road too, it's like none of these retards realize they're riding a dirt bike.
>>28201754They're running from the cops in areas they don't know. They need to case the whole area they're going to fuck around in. Find all the escape routs cars cant go and places to lose helicopters. Also you never fuck around on your own turf.
>>28201545Kek stop searching up gay porn and your history won't be all faggy.
>>28201748That would make sense as to why there's so many Harleys with seemingly no damage.But the majority of the jap bikes look like they were in an accident- although a salvage title for some of these bikes that just need a fairing seems like insurance fraud.They do sometimes say what insurance company it's from.I'll start paying attention to the condition vs if an insurance company is listed.
>>28201731B-but don't you love riding anon?>>28201738He's on a scooter so he got stuck further down the road>>28201749Just register in the app then ask some delivery rider who he works for. Shake him up a bit needed, he'll give you the contact you're looking for.
The tank ring mount sits too close to the seat. It causes my stomach to hit the bag during bumps and it hurts a bit. What was sw-motech thinking? I also can't tuck much. What would you do to make the ring closer up to the gas cap?

>>28201822I don't know how it works there but here you submit your own documents. Might take a while to be accepted though.The only requirement is not having a criminal record, at least on paper. ShoomerEats is a great name for a company though kek
>>28200381>Real transmission with a clutch>Goes atleast 70mph>Gas tank between your legs>Scooter How? Just because people make fun of your bike and call it gay, cheap, slow doesn't make it a scooter. It's a motorcycle and be proud of it you mother fucker
Are 520 chains really worth the extra power for sacrificing the extra strength from a 525? How much extra are you really gaining? I went with a 520 chain on my zx6r last time and I'm thinking of going back to a 525. My gixxer has a 525 and I feel more confident knowing it has beefier chain, however my kawi is just a 600.Also, do 525 and 520 chains use the same sprocket? I've heard they do.
>>28201844Sprocket width:520 < 428 = 525
>>28201642Import/export combined with taxation and local markets can cause weird things to happen>import trashed bike>only pay tax over the actual value>mileage history not checked when importing, so might as well revert it a few 10,000's >brands may have different pricing between countries outside of any addition tax>Declared not roadworthy anymore? No problem.>other frauds I don't even know of? Maybe combining parts?That should at least partially explain your struggle to obtain a nice block.

>>28201642In Poland it's rather common now to import cars from USA, as you can get a very good deal on a lightly damaged car, import it, fix it and it would still be cheaper than buying locally. Didn't know it's the same with motorcycles, for sure there were many of them imported from UK back in the day, but since 2016 I think it stopped pretty much.
>>28201734great, now you have me on the auctions again. https://www.ridesafely.com/salvage-motorcycle-auction-2019-indian-motorcycle-co.-ftr-gray/bid/2129214476https://www.ridesafely.com/salvage-motorcycle-auction-2014-honda-cb1100-black/bid/2129177654
>spend a shit ton of money to get my softail 'comfy'One of the worst money sinks i ever took on. i should have just gotten a bagger and instead made the softail a hoon machine
>>28201908>softail hoon machinepics?
>>28201908nvm misread
>>28201913well its still fast, has a cam and tune, but i went through several bar + seat setups, trying to chase that laid back position
>>28201917noice
>>28201710It is a gy6 engine on a Chinese grom clone. Still plenty fun
>>28201778>He's on a scooter so he got stuck further down the roadYou mean low cc bikes suit this job better?
>>28201703Jap scoops are surprisingly fast.
>>28201933Shit an CVT all you want, but they can be faster. IIRC, there was a prototype cvt F1 car, driver took it around the track and said it felt slow. But he did faster laps than with the conventional transmission.
Is that pedo guy part of 764 or O9A sound off!
been thinking about getting into bikes but i'm scared of a twitchy throttle ending me.
>>28201710I'm not sure what to think about the Navi.On one hand it seems like one of the better scoots to ride because you would be able to grip it with your legs like a bike, but on the other hand regular scoots seem way more practical with all of their storage space.
>>28201995Then buy a slower bike? And learn how to ride it???
>>28201942CVT is great. It has a bad rep because of cars, but it is the optimal transmission on paper.
>>28202003The problem with scooters is the unsprung mass from the retarded idea of putting the engine on the swingarm. CVT bikes like the TMAX are great though, and I want one.
Looking to get a new bike, my first was a 500 (gs500e). What are the real differences between a 500, 600, 800, etc? How different is one bike from the other if one is higher power; or is an old bike that is a 500 not as powerful as a new bike that's a 400? Sorry if these are noob questions, I really don't know and don't even know where I'd find these answers as I'm not a mechanic, I just like to ride.
>>28202022the power depends on the displacement and the number of cylinders more cubic centimeters - more power, more cylinders - more power400cc 4 cylinder can be just as powerful as 650cc 2 cylinder
>>28202004>The problem with scooters is the unsprung mass from the retarded idea of putting the engine on the swingarmPlease, mr. science man. Explain. Although, it is the most compact design and let's the bike have a very low COG.Also isn't the tmax the same thing with the engine/swingarm?
