which way?

>>28212382Just replace the light + cowl on the top with the classic light and smaller cowl from the bottom, leave everything else up top the same. The trapezoid thing just feels like Izuzu's body design from the 80s, and it's too specifc to be timeless.Unlss you're pitting scramblers against dirt bikes. Let the scrambler guys do their thing.
Nice honda rebel bro
Is there a book that covers the history of motorcycle design? Like how did we get from shit like WW1 Triumphs and Superior SS110s to the modern cruiser designs we see today?
>>28212382offroad is the way to go
>>28212382With practice and proper knowledge of how to set up your bike correctly, you can do both....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPLJn3IygAgbut of course there are always trade offs to be made - more aggressive offroad tires means decreased performance on the street, better street tires mean less performance offroad. Where do you live, where do you want to ride/go, what do your friends ride? I switched from offroad the motocross. I do not know anyone who rides offroad, but I go to the track and there are hundreds of people to ride with and I do not even know most of them.
>>28212450>book that covers the history of motorcycle designI am sure there endless books, magazines, vids, documentaries about it. Guys like talking about cars, bikes, guns.
>>28212450We didn't get there from Triumph or Superior, both went bust and led to nothing.Modern Triumph is a totally different company.
I should add that saw a couple of Honda African twins at a famous motocross track and these guys were killing it. They had to take it easier on the jumps of course, but the turns, hills they were passing a lot of guys. However, the africa twin or any adventure bike is set up for street and light dirt, whereas a street bike is already set up for the street so you do not need to know as much or make as many changes to it for the street. If you get an AT or adventrue bike and decide not to any dirt, you can convert it, at extra cost of course, to something else , I saw vid where a guy morphed an adv in a stoft tail bobber but I can find it.
>>28212534i watched it, i can't imagine any scenario where i'd need or want to make those manoeuvres on a bike.
>>28212605>i can't imagine any scenarioOf course, the point was many people think you cant do this or that on and ADV bike, but the bike can do it with proper setup and rider ability. You do not need an ultra light bike to be mobile inna woods, but it helps its very tight. If you have no interest offroad, jumps, climbs, trails, then a street bike is the way to go then.
>>28212624>the bike can do it with proper setup and rider abilityRider ability carrying as much weight in that post as the suspension in your pic.
WHY IS THIS EVEN A FUCKING QUESTION?WHAT IS WRONG WHITH YOU?!?!>CR, KX, YZ, RM or sit on the bench with your cock gobbling girlfriend like the little bitch that you are.
>>28212382I like going right, personally.
>>28212932it looks gayit looks like people who ride it are boykissers
>>28212932Hipster trash
>>28212932I like it. It's like a Honda Monkey became a surly teenager and realy got into the Birthday Massacre or whatever goth shit da yout's listen too these days.
>>28213046I like that band
>>28212678what do you need a dirtbike for, practically? i guess it can help you to trespass, but how often are you going to need to?
>>28212382The CRF is way more fun around town but it's unstable on the highway. I ride mine on the highway all the time but it's a little sketchy because it wants to wobble. I have a lot of bikes and the CRF when it's in its element is probably the most fun to ride. If I could only have one bike I would need to have a faster street bike, but if I could have any two then I would get a CRF300L and a big sport tourer. You'll end up getting two so you should just start with the CRF.
>>28213110> Practicality> NeedI understand some people are forced onto two wheels, but that's not why I'm here.
>>28212932I like the older model more desu.
>>28212382new paint is so shitthis nardo slop has to stop
>>28212382Crf450rlGet ecu done before you explod and its gtgI have one
>>28214414Shoom, you are the only non-mx/dune racer who recommends that bike. What's next, man? Telling people to man up and get the KTM 500?
>>28213170>but if I could have any two then I would get a CRF300L and a big sport tourer.>You'll end up getting two so you should just start with the CRF.Not OP but this is basically my plan, maybe a KLX 300 instead of the CRF and definitely an ADV instead of the sport tourer though.
>>28214499An ADV and a dual sport are really similar besides the former being beefier. If you want to have the most diversified 2-bike garage you should get a dual sport and something road focused and fast but still comfortable like a Guzzi V100 Mandello or a Tracer 9 GT
>>28214414Isn't that the turd with like 15.5hp?
>>28215259> 15hoLol, chalk that one up as a big L for Honda advertising.
