Was it a bad idea to put a milk crate on the back of my TW200? I just thought it probably makes it look third world as fuck being a small displacement dual sport with that. Third worlders use bikes for utility rather than fun and I wanted to use mine for utility, it felt comfy being able to have a vehicle I can drive on almost any terrain and last days on a single tank and also store stuff on with the crate, but now I have second thoughts.

I'm vindicated in believing adventure bikes are for fat fucks. There is absolutely nothing an adventure bike does better than a dual sport other than having fat wide seats for obese people and a windshield for people who want to drive a car rather than feel the wind on a bike.

No way, the license hardware literally looks like an extra bullshit antenna they were forced to add by big goverment faggots impeding on any sort of freedom, and they look that way because that is exactly what they are. No bike is actually designed to have any of these shitty fenders, they are tack-ons to keep bullshit regulations and police happy.

Here’s an other example of what I mean
When the read end was large and not just like a cliff 100’ above the rear wheel, the license plate, which has ALWAYS been legally mandatory, was integrated into the design smoothly, it looks like part of a full fender, which is a classic element of motorcycle design
Now they quit designing the rear on Friday afternoon, so when they stick on the license plate holder to complete the design, it makes it look absolute ass without it
I’m not saying it looks GOOD with it. These are ugly bikes. Modern rear end design sucks. But it looks WORSE without it

Its a nice peppy lil gal, I basically use it as a bastard sumo that I treat like shit since its half the price of a DRZ due to the sumo tax. Mostly I ride it around looking to get pictures where you are 100% not allowed to be with a motorcycle kek.

It really is just like a dirt birt/sumo though, a normal left hand turn at an intersection will require an upshift mid turn if you are cracking the throttle hard. If you like to work gears all day (I do) its a load of fun.

Fairings bikes have no aggression or aura to them, its just round bubble shapes that are more akin to VW Beatles than anything actually stylish.

Honestly Harleys might be shit bikes for grandpas and retards, but they 100% look better than fairing sport bikes. I want my bike to look like I'm literally just on a seat that is attached to a fucking engine and two wheels. Bikes should look fucking RAW.

Fuck off you retarded flyover you obviously have no idea how cities in Connecticut are. The state has already been built up for hundreds of years so when niggers came up we couldn't just build big suburban sprawl to avoid them there was no space.

After a stupid amount of troubleshooting (noticed my brake was stuck on after changing brake pads) I found out my front brake lever (which I didn't touch) doesn't always properly sit back on the brake switch.

It has a bit of wobble to it but is OEM, any easy fixes? Too tight a fit to get a washer in there and I don't have access to just like tack weld a touch more metal so it always contacts when released

>The road and street glide both look better than the road king
As someone who rides their Street Glide everyday and absolutely loves it, I still think the Road King looks better. The Road King looks great, but isn't as versatile or comfortable.
I love how my dad's Road King looks, but it's just not as comfortable on our long rides. They have the same engine (M8 107ci), they're only one year apart in age (mine is a 2017 and his is a 2018), and we both have put over 80k miles on them. His detachable windscreen doesn't do half as good of a job as my fairing. We've switched on long trips and it's a pain when you're doing 85+ for over an hour on it. It is inferior for it's main purpose.
It looks so much better, though. I love it. Something about how classic it looks, the minimalism, the tank mounted speedo, idk.

The TW200 IS a third world bike, embrace it.

I put down an islamic prayer rug on mine to make the seat feel better. then zip tied a milk crate to the back. It was already beat to hell and I just leaned into it. The thing looks like it just came out of rural pakistan and I get comments on it all the time.

Only thing missing is a goat, 12 year old wife, and and RPG.

I've acquired two kitties to protect my shop from mice. They're both polydactyl. There's a third little tiny one hanging around as well, that these are fighting with. Gf left some food out back under the awning for him.

Missouri is skewed by KCMO and St Louis. South of I-70 is unironically Little Dixie, there is a section along the Missouri called the Little Rhineland, and above I-70 is just whitebread farmland.

>A windscreen is a fairing
No, it's not. I don't know if you're going for like a technicality type thing, but a static fork mounted windscreen that barely just keeps the wind off your chest is no comparison to a full fork mounted or fixed solid fairing.
>The old three light road kangs looked pretty good but still not as good as a batwing with lower
Matter of personal preference. I also think the modern single light Road Kings look better. I think all of them do to all gens of Street/Electra Glides.
>I know the new lowers are polarizing but I prefer them to the old Rushmore’s
I do too, and I have a Rushmore era bike (2017). I like the LED strip side lights. I like the redesigned storage. I like everything about them. If I wasn't a cheap bastard I'd get a new one because I think they look really good. If my dad wasn't a cheap bastard and could look past personal looks preference, he'd also get one. I'm just practical and actually ride a bunch, that's why I have it and appreciate it, but it's not as good looking to me. If I was a fairweather, summer child, trailer queen, boomer bitch rider that barely puts 500 miles down a year, I'd have a Road King.

I saw a younger Harley rider today. He had the whole tacticool look, even had a fucking ~4 inch fixed blade knife holstered on his hip. He probably thought he looked cool, too bad he duck walked an uncomfortably far distance.
But I find it crazy that there are people who would mount objects to their body that could upgrade a minor ego-killing laydown into a whole ER visit.
I went down in May doing 15 mph and my wallet put a bad looking bruise on my upper thigh and hip.

The other fellow is talking about everything that’s not a naked sports bike basically, I think it’s fair to call a big touring windshield a fairing for purposes of the aesthetic conversation
And all things equal I’ve always preferred a king, or a heritage classic or deluxe, with their windshield on than off
Step back for a moment, even if we say that it ISNT a fairing, he’s also railing against rear ends. For me I think the quintessential example would be how the new fat boy with the bob softtail rear fender looks compared to the old full fender, it’s just not as nice. Or look at the new sportster s as an example of the tiny end look that I think is so ugly.

But it's not. They don't change the look of a bike that much, are way smaller, can be easily removed, and don't offer any protection to the bars/hands. For functional or aesthetic purposes it makes no sense to compare the two.

Motorised bicycles? Yes, that's the original idea behind the vehicle classification but it's actually meant 50cc max displacement (and nominal 45km/h max speed) for the last 60 years.

Mopeds are being massively replaced by electric bikes here in the states because you don't need a license to use one. An electric bike from China that costs a fraction of what a Super Cub does can also go faster than it can and has less restrictions about where it goes (sidewalks, indoors, etc)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB6hBLmBhPA

I don't think this will change until the loopholes get closed but oh wait: Amazon uses these for their riders so it's never getting closed.

Front tire went flat as I started my ride to work. Had to ride a little over a mile back with it flat, kept speed under 20mph. Think maybe a valve stem issue, couldn’t find a puncture. When it went flat the bead cam off the rim, couldn’t get air back in it. Question is, how likely is it the sidewalls are fucked from riding on it flat, any signs to look for? I’m going to check it more tomorrow.
>>
>>28606774
How do you guise even define a motor vehicle?
Here it goes like: anything that goes faster than 25km/h (but nominally maxes at 45) is considered a moped, a motor vehicle that needs a licence plate, insurance and all that. And last few years it's gotten stricter, there's weight and power limits too and e-bikes have to be assistance-only so you can't ride it with the electric motor alone, you have to pedal too.
>>
>>28606770
These are basically extinct in the states, sadly. Which sucks because they're way safer, you can hear them coming and are made with the pedals actually operable. As well as being a nice ride.

Meanwhile pic related. Pedals are a joke, seat is hard as rocks, entire thing is aluminum or plastic, battery is known to explode and those are just regular ass fat bike tires so they could just blow out from under you, and btw it has zero suspension, also it goes 35 MPH or 40 MPH (64 kph) 'unlocked' (basically flipping a switch saying you're ok with breaking the law).

But it's $400 so this is what we have. Meanwhile that moped in your pic will work for 100 years and will probably never hurt a single person thanks to being stable, safe, having user features, etc.

You should. They're cool. I ride mine to the liqqa sto year round. I thought girls would like it but 99% of the time i was getting chatted up by old men.

They are quirky and require more, regular, preventative maintenance than a jap bike. It has 3 different oils (engine, gearbox, final drive), carbs, an airbox that takes like 15 minutes to get into, sidecar alignment (I just guess), valves should be checked yearly. Mine has been very reliable, a couple minor things is all.

Good fun. My exes dog liked riding with us. That was always fun. My dogs now hate it.
>>
>>28606778
>How do you guise even define a motor vehicle?
Same way we define gun laws: We define completely arbitrary and most of the time aesthetic features that do not impact form or function to define things around. The video goes into it a little but here, the difference between a moped and a motorcycle changes from place to place. In my city it's a flat 50cc limit, if you're 50ccs, you're a moped. Now, anyone who thinks about this for a second realizes that you can go really fast at 50ccs. A 50cc Super Cub is classified as a moped here. Other places, it needs pedals and a way to self-drive as well as a motor. Whichever it is just depends on which plot of dirt you're standing on and nothing more.

E-bikes are just absurd with classification nobody understands, just "don't go over 35 mph or it becomes a moped".

What I found was riding solo, girls do not care. Have another dude in the sidecar generally got more attention all around, but the only time where the female specific attention was when we had 3 dudes on the bike. Like they were rolling down the windows and flirting at stoplights. I was younger, pretty fit, and we rode without a helmet. Now I am just a grown ass man and I always have a helmet on so I don't get those reactions anymore.

>>28606799

Yeah man I was super excited when I got it. I waffled on the size because I was at the top end of the scale for a medium, but I missed where they recommend sizing up with armor. It fits and looks good, but it's definitely form fitting. No room to grow.

I also got a set of their jeans, not the unbeatable ones because they were like $300. Pretty comfy and I like the knee/hip armor but they fit like like leggings. Surprisingly despite the tight fit, there's lots of room around the balls somehow

Was tossing up between that or a Merlin jacket. I'm in Australia so was lucky enough to be able to go into a dealer and try a few for sizing, still leave the bottom button undone otherwise I find it tends to bunch a bit. Can't fault it otherwise and like you said doesn't feel or look bulky while still having the pads in there.
