Care to give some more advice dbt, still in doubt about the 701 enduro. I rode one today but all bigger windshield options i can find for it include €1000+ rally tower and they are ugly ones too. On the other side I get can get a new 390 adv r which has a fine windshield, tick every single option including the raised seat for half the price of the 701. Both bikes are fine for my use case but if anything I’d want a tiny bit more power than the stock 390.The dealer said I’ll get better resale value on the 701 but i do 12k miles a year so by the time I want something new it’s an “old bike”. Also the timing for the 701 would be terrible because the 2026 701 will get the ktm dash, like 15hp more and a longer service interval (and I get maybe €2k discount for the 2024 model they have there)
>looking at do everything bike>it's probably going to be a adv, i.e. a sport tourer with better suspension>450lbs+>start around $10k before dealer fees and engine/hand guards>ride modes, ride modes everywhere>German coworker shouting "Go buy a fucking used transalp, they're like cockroaches">400lbs ish>50hp>$3000 euros>built like a tank>looks like a pack of Marlboros grew wheels>several days and lots of youtube videos later>Realize Americans hated them>They were only sold for a little over a year before being discontinued in 1990>even if I find one, parts of will be a nightmareI guess I just buy a used KLR instead, but I know the highway miles aren't going to be nearly as pleasant. A dream that dies early is a blessing, I suppose.
>>28628160The V7 is such a nice bike! if i see them for sale i always take a look at them because they look so cool>>28628181well one is an enduro the other is a small adv, one will surely be more comfortable than the other and one is certantly more performance oriented with no frills. are you considering other bikes as well? is comfort more important than power for you? because if both are fine as you say you can still probably do some work to squeeze a bit more power out of the 390 and still end up paying less if the price difference is that much.
>>28628160Those are classy bags, anon. Your setup is basically the ideal V7 depending on windscreen preferences.
>>28628194I was considering the t7 but it’s really really heavy and found the 2 cil a more boring driving experience on road. Most say neither 701 and 390 are really enduros and that’s fine. I would consider any other 400-600 single that falls somewhat between pure offroad bike and minimal adv bike. Power is not really important to me on its own but the vibrations at highway speed on my current 390 get a bit annoying and I was hoping the bigger engine in the 701 would fix that.
>>28628225>I would consider any other 400-600 single that falls somewhat between pure offroad bike and minimal adv bike.You, my friend, should look at a DR650.
Newer low milage f850gs or high milage r1200gs or r1250gs? For similar prices?
>>28628227Would be my dream choice really, I’ve been searching but they haven’t passed emissions here for the past 20 years. Even if you import one now you can’t get a euro plate on it anymore. There was once a guy who managed to import a bunch of Canadian 2020 ones to poland but they’re like collectors items
>>28628241show pics of what model GSsthe 850 isnt a real GS
>>28628225well yeah real real enduro bikes have maintenance level in hours instead of kilometers/miles.I didn't ride anything that is not a single for a reasonable ammount of time but i think even with bigger size you should expect some vibrations anyway? just throwing wild ideas: maybe an old GS with the 650 single like the sertao? or a caballero rally 500? the himmy 450 is heavy but they say it works really nicely if you want more adv style>>28628241dad says boxer twin is a very special engine and he loves it, says that it's something everyone should try at least once and the f850 looks kinda bad, i vote 1200
Anybody else ITT have an Annitori quickshifter?
>>28628181While I can't comment on aftermarket options for the 701, my plan for wind protection on my dual sport was to mount up a quick-detach Harley batwing somehow.
>>28628115You can have any bore coated, common in powersports to bring bores back to stock bore. If you have a hard to source piston in a size you want that's one way to fix the bore and match your piston as coaters grind bores to size. Cool stuff.https://www.usnicom.com/ have done it for many years.>>28628182Buy KLR, tweak it to suit and if want touring bike buy one used too. Motorcycles are like orgasms, it's hard to have too many.You can do both nicely for small money.
>>28628042You're right thats why I daily a liter bike so I never need to shift gears.
>>28628241Define "high" mileage and look up specific years on BMW venues to see which are preferable. If a BMW was taken care of they're hard to wear out. Inspect fluids including brake fluids since people tend never to change those.Since most riding is street I'd get the flat twin but do study how to inspect those. Asking on advrider forums as well as BMW forums would be wise as the ADV guys are more technically inclined. Get the factory service manual for whatever ya buy.
>>28628260Nice Bronco. Got more pix of that?
>>28628254Thanks, I’m looking to buy something somewhat new. I had an f650 a few years ago, nice bike, better in terms of vibration, fun engine but also very heavy and very low for standing up> caballero Never heard of the brand, looks good but not look like something I’d want to take into sand or mud
>>28628260Cute gixxer bro
I wish there was a bike where gears 1-5 were from 0-120kmh and then the last gear stretched till like 200mph.Luv working gears all day, but wish you could get the same thing with a higher top end for highway pullin. What what about a 12 gear transmission, that would be based.

Lady pulled out into oncoming today in front of me thinking she could beat the traffic, but she second guessed it, slowed down, committed, then uncommitted and just stopped right in front of meWhy are cagies so pants on head fucking retarded
>>28628655It's just women, they are stupid.
>>28628668Nope, had an old man make a similar move on me yesterday. Last guy out of the left turn lane running the red because someone was still in the intersection, makes a u turn and runs wide across 3 lanes into the far right lane, then from the far right lane he moves all the way into the far left lane with no turn signal.Something about infrastructure with lots of quarter mile 45mph limit roads separated by 2minute long intersections makes cagies antsyWhenever I’m in those areas I always take things extra easy

After two weeks and an ER trip my foot is almost healed! I'll be ready to ride Saturday morning and now I can get back to route planning!
>>28628719All you have to do differently is remember you have lotsa torque down low so you don't need to downshift or rev out as aggressively in corners.
>>28628743Glad you are ok anon.
>>28628719I'd say just watch kieth code's totw2, but there is nothing specific about engine type.
>>28628705It's sad that this is the case. It should be made stricter.

>>28628534Just get a 450, rmz or crf450.

I found a smol fren today and couldn't help myself. I ran into the owner after I grabbed something to eat. The guy probably would fit fine on mine, and my 5'4" ass would've been a better fit on the CB300.

Hey guys, currently on day 4 of my hungarian TET adventure with the supermoto 701 and battlax ax41 on 17 inchers. Buddy with the honda left yesterday i decided to stay another night to finish the route.Tires are actually alright, larger front would be better for sure, but the problem is the suspension and the gear ratio, suspension is way too hard and gear ratio is too streety. Still manage to make good progress on most roads.Got about 130, 140 kilometers of TET left today. Bike is fine (for now), but both side panels where the saddlebags are are completely fucked visually. Tons of mud, lots of water crossings, one of them very very close to max depth. Ill post pics when im home, hopefully within the next 10-12 hours.
>tfw scrolling through videos on yt and come across a roll race of a h/c/i c6 only barely beating a vfr800fiGod motorcycles are so nice. I can't believe I only spent $3k on something that is within the realm of modified corvettes and is still comfortable to ride. Every car enthusiast who refuses to own or try motorcycles is either a massive bitch, a complete retard, or obese

>>28628901Yeah too hot sucks too. With my usual textile gear anything above 20c/68f is too much for me. I want to try the Adventurespec Supershirt for days but I won't need something like that until June
anons bullied me about my toce exhaust… i don’t want to send it back to manchester to get the ECU redone :,c… so I just decided to try and make it quieter so it’s not so obnoxious. there is fiberglass all over my polar bear pajamas now. i bought a 24 inch baffle and wrapped it to fit inside the toce baffle. i really hope it works
>>28628822>>28628853Since all I've known is the Honda I like the idea of pulling up on newer CB generations. I think of it like siblings running into each other. The bike that I'm on is in a weird spot where interaction-wise it bridges the gap between old dudes with Harleys and the sport bike guys. It also draws a lot of older guys and boomers who go "Oh my god I had a CB (XXX) in my 20s!" or "I had a Magna!" or "I had a Nighthawk!" The in-between enthusiasts that like standard bikes usually, who aren't patched out Harley riders but were probably the pre-fairing sport bike guys.It's been fun since I started riding in May. I started at the beginning of summer on brand new tires but I actually had to replace the rear tire a week or two ago at some point over 4k miles, next change will probably be both front and rear. It was the last service interval in the manual at 24k miles. The day before yesterday I replaced the handlebars with some fresh ones I got on ebay that came off of another CB1000. The first owner before my dad had managed to bend up the originals and the ebay ones were in excellent shape (sits flat on surface), as advertised. I kind of fucked up during the installation though, because I forgot to unhook the rear brake lamp power connectors and broke them off. Thankfully Honda left plenty of slack in the wires, so I stripped them back a bit and was able to drive the crimps open on the connectors with an ice pick. Re-crimped and put the rubber boots back on over the connectors.

>>28629087Sure, but its not whatever imaginary enemy the schizo is fantasizing to be real. Like a lot of weirdo schizophrenic spammers on generals, he just takes the lingo of the general as spam buzzwords (in this case, calling anyone and everyone under the sun "wrenchlet"), and then decides to have a meltdown about whatever poster is known on the general as his arch enemy (in this case the Indian anon). Seen it happen in way too many generals now, these non-functioning """human beings""" are all the same archetype. This schizo literally doesn't even have a bike, hes just here to have a melty everyday without reason.

Anyone tried out a super tenere 1200? I was on the 1200gs bandwagon for a while, but I looked more into the super tenere after finding out it was shaft drive, and it seems like an amazing adv/tourer. My only gripe is the weight, but I feel like it shouldn't be unusable on anything but really rocky terrain or sand. Are there any other japanese shaft drive adv bikes made in the last 20 years? I'd considered getting a newer vstrom 650 or 800 later down the line, but I really want to do cross country rides, and it'd kinda suck if I had to replace the sprocket and chain every few trips instead of just fluid
>>28629197And nothing of value was lost
>>28629165checking valves isn't the difficult part, not even adjusting them is that difficult (depending on the way they are actuated). But getting to them is a pain in the ass in most bikes. On Boxers it's piss easy to access, as you can see in the video.
>>28629195>small rideyea, not big
>>28629195Small ride tomorrow is me fighting for my life and my bike. I haven't felt like this since msf and I have no idea how much I retained from 4 months ago.>>28629197Did you hold onto the bike while going down or did you run into something? Is the bike totalled?

>>28629209holding onto your bike is probably one of the worst things anyone can do. the bike can be replaced but not me. and the bike is ok, sliders saved most of the fairings and the insurance goblins will take care of her. its not the first time it happens either lol, we are always trying to push further
>be european spanish>check latino "tips for novice riders">half the tips are about avoiding getting muggedkek.
>>28629257I'm not suggesting or arguing that, I am just asking if you did. After going through similar but not being injured other than more cuts on my arm, you should make sure you have photos of the bike damages. As the insurance gets to you ask them lead times if the bike is at a shop and you aren't working on it with insurance money. I would have saved a lot of headache if I asked them what was in backprder and what the lead times were on the parts in the repair order.Hope you recover soon.

>>28629194Stunters crash every year, never wear gear, and let lose no limbs. Curious!>erm they aren't going fastNeither are any of the ATGATT redditors either lmao. Gear is for 120+mph ultra-squids who treat canyons and twisties like its the track, the only thing it saves you from is road rash, it isn't going to stop blunt trauma, and the only piece of gear that would stop hyperextension in any real manner are boots.Marc runs custom gear you can't even buy and breaks bones on tracks with infinite slide off space, what the fuck do you think gear is gonna do for you slamming into a car or concrete wall?

>>28629222If yamaha did what bmw does with their boxer shaft drive family, I'd be creaming myself. I'd absolutely kill for a 270° twin shaft drive sport tourer from yamaha. I've seen you can gain 20hp just from an ecu flash on them, and if they had that in a smaller bike, it'd be amazing with the amount of torque it already puts out. The only reason they haven't is probably cause of their 3 cylinders which already put out >120hp. For now I'm just hoping the future has more shaft drive and hossack/telelever suspension in it

>>28629357>except quite a lot of them doYour imagination is not reality.>lotworkIsn't where they crash, stunting on the streets is done at way faster speeds than 20 and its where the majority of their large yearly crashes come from. The lotwork "crashes" are just dropping a bike onto the stunt cage, minus the once in a blue moon loop.
>>28629203too heavy, not enough power if you want a tenny, get an old one like itchyboots did, and mod the heck out of itthe GS is as good as it is because they perfected how to hang a low engine, tenny centre of gravity is ass if youre trying to pick it up and doesnt have the refined on-road ergo

>>28629337Just get a BMW, life is too short. For me, I want Suzuki to make all my bikes and for it to be cheap as fuck, but that is not the case.

>>28629510V4 is cool, very smooth, great tourer, not much else. Same for magna.
>>28629510It's a reasonably fast reasonably comfy fully faired bike with a V4 and a ridiculous exhaust note. It's just a good solid bike, and you can get 'em cheap.

Thoughts about the list of bikes as a first one?
>>28629510Reliable afPretty quickSounds dopeComfy but sportyRare engine, good chassis, single sided swingarm
>>28629539Don't get a dct NC bike they are plentiful in the used market without the dct.Also consider the nx/cb500x they are less of an off-road adv and more of a commuter like the NC. Also cruisers, used shadow.
>>28629539Don't get a DCT or a Ducati as a beginner bike. Check out the CB500X/NX500 if you want a Honda babytourer. I started on one myself and loved it. Also consider a Triumph Speed 400 if you want a naked.For a cruiser I think you should also check out the Kawasaki Eliminator, it's got the Ninja 500 engine (also check out the Ninja 500, it's gudbaik).The "LOL" bikes will all literally kill you as a newbie with bad throttle control.
>>28629539i dont know if the monsters got better in the recent years, but the ~2010 monsters where shit to ride. i had a buddy who always got monsters, and he just never really learned how to ride properly.i rode it once, felt like shit. idk man the seating position is just wrong for me.
I have now test ridden all the major full sized ADVs except the GS 1300 (couldn’t get on one, rode a used 1250), and the Tenere (I’m looking in the bigger size range)So I tested in the last three weeks the GS 1250, Tiger 1200, the Pan America, the Multistrada (I didn’t test this one per se, one of my coworkers has one and I rode it with him on the back), the V Strom, the Africa Twin, and the Versys 1100. Out of all of these, street riding only for about twenty minutes, I think the Versys 1100, the Pan America, and the Africa Twin most stood out to me. I’m near Philadelphia, is anyone able to recommend a rental outfit? I’d like to rent at least these three so I can ride them for a day on the highway before deciding. My use case includes maybe gravel roads if Google map spazzes out and routes me down one, but for the most part I commute by highway and tour in the four to six hour range. If anyone could hands on say the GS 1300 is that much better than the 1250, I’ll test ride one too but I’m sort of a shorter guy and it’s just very wide. The versus, a twin, and pan America were all narrow between the legs so they were much more comfortable at slow speed and stops.
>>28629539NC mentioned, that’s mine above in front of the Church, best bike ever designed, DCT is from hell if you buy one you should be shot >>28628338
>>28629539vulkan > rebel > f800for first time riderthe rest are very silly options and you shouldnt consider them until you have a bit more experience, especially the 696 if you want an actual new-rider friendly bike, get an MT-07
>>28629539Get one you won't mind dropping or laying down>inb4 just don't drop itthen you're not riding enough or testing your boundaries and the bike type doesn't matter.
>>28629539Vfr wouldn't be bad, if you respect the machine and keep that Throttle hand chilled it'd be a good pick if you wanted your first bike to be a keeper. If you can haul a 500lb sport tourer around and not fall off, you'll be able to handle most bikes. It's power is smooth from what I hear and very predictable. Only jump scare is the torque down low aside from that first 2% Throttle input its chill. You could also shoot for a 750 vfr for little less weight and oomph
>>28629580Nah, there's a difference between building your limits and breaking them.It's consistency vs intensity just like the gym you don't have to go to failure to develop results. No you can't convince me otherwise.
>>28629071Daym, they’re still on the road.Good catch
>>28629586>It's power is smooth from what I hear and very predictable.And then you hit 7kRPM and the VTEC kicks in and YEEHAW.
Today I will remind them:TownMate is a shaft drive scooter
>>28629596>Vtec viffer>Gear driven Chads be like
>>28629466yeah, that's what I meant. I think on one of the R1 generations you have to drain the coolant because you have to shift the radiator forwards to access one (1) fucking bolt

whats going on guys
>>28628338I just traded my NC700X, I love the Z900RS I got, but I miss the frunk. I didn't realize how much I used it until I didn't have it. Gonna have to get a tailbag.
>>28628604I've made two pilgrimages there to see the image of Athena/Minerva. Other visitors always give me strange looks when I prostrate myself before the goddess and begin praying in Latin.
>>28629539The NC750X is the best one on the list, but get the 6 speed so you can ride other bikes.
>700€ for 1 years insurance of which i could ride max 5 monthsthought about getting a bike but fuck paying jews that much for nothing
>>28629607Every accusation is a confession
>>28629641What did you mean, it's less than 100€ for all 12 months per year here in Germany. The only possible reason it's so expensive for you is because you are 16yo making first steps into life, of course then insurance will rip you since you end up wrapped around a tree in 100 cases out 100 on your first bike.
>>28629652Every cope is a seethe
>>28629668Thank you schizo sister. You may ride off on your monkey now.
>>28629539Not a good idea to have heavy bikes with full fairings there. Not a good idea to learn with DCT either. Monster seems alright on paper but never tried one. Vulcan definitely is the good shit to consider here if you pick one with ABS, same engine as Z650 and that one is predictable, doesn't like low revs too much though. But overall it kicks hard enough for someone to learn proper throttle control.Just don't give VFRs for newbies to crash REEEEEEEE.
>>28629463You don't know that.
>>28629203>amazing adv/tourer. My only gripe is the weight,That is every ADV.
>>28629674I know a bunch of people who gravitated to bigger tourers because they wanted something they could slam thousands of miles on with no chain maintenance. The CP3 is a great engine, so a comfy CP3 bike with a shaft drive would have an entire market segment to itself - hypermilers who don't need a 550lb bike.

less than 24h until properly svartpilled!unfortunately the ride my local group organized for tomorrow starts too early for me to join with the new bike, it would have been a nice way to start shaving off the break-in kilometers but i'll try it alone on some known roads

>>28629662im 26 and from finland, had my car driving license since 19, never been in an accident and had car insurance for 4 yearsinsurance for few random bikes i just checked:Honda Shadow 750: 599,15 €Yamaha XVS 1100: 717,76 €Yamaha XJ 900: 735,92 €Kawasaki VN 750: 645,15 €
>>28629679>they could slam thousands of miles on with no chain maintenanceI really think people overthink chain maintenance. I clean mine maybe every couple months, slap chain wax on it, and it hasn't rusted at all.Also hope people got the memo from BMW. All their shaft drives, even the old ones need visual inspection and lubrication every 12,000 miles and replacement every 48,000 miles. So two to three times longer service life of a chain drive.
i think next year im gonna build myself an adventure bike on the 690 enduro r base.for what its worth, the 701 sumo did a great job, 17 inch front wheel was far less of a problem than i thought it would be.what was annoying was the gear ratio and the hard suspension.also: 17 inch wheels "clean" themselves on the part of the forks where you dont want dirt, so its kinda annoying to clean the forks every time you go through mud like pic related.>enduristan blizzard saddlebagsgreat bags, no complaints whatsoever, you can literally pressure wash the dirt off and they still stay dry.install and deinstall is easy and really quick, also when you take them off they are off, theres no annoying baseplate or anything remaining on the bike.they could use a valve to make closing them a little easier though, you gotta force the air out of the bag when rolling it close.>sidi crossfire II srsridiculously good. not a single time was the boot uncomfortable and i was riding 5-6 hours and wearing it ~10 hours a day.really stable and feels very secure, absolutely worth the moneyalso waterproof.>AGV AX9great helmet, but next time ill use goggles instead of a visor, which works well with the helmet toothe beak or whatever you call it actually does something and protects your eyes from the sun, unlike with many other adv helmets that have a beak thats way too high up.>Cardo Packtalk Edgeworked fine as well, battery holds up easily for a full day of riding and talking.
Why is my bike dying? >under hard braking>coming to a stop>right after doing a pull>dies just before stopping>can save it if I rev it up at the end of braking>carbureted I like to practice panic stops when I have nobody behind me, but having to kick it over every time it dies, sucks. It does NOT happen when coming to a stop under normal braking and cruising.
Part of me still expects to crash tomorrow on my rebel trying to get home just from my luck and not riding for so long. Gotta hype myself up.>>28629280How often are you crashing?
>>28629699Thank you schizosister.
>>28629709Battery issue or stator issue?
>>28629705Wow you are getting shafted for no reason then,kinda unlucky
>>28629706>I really think people overthink chain maintenance.Possible, but also I'm paranoid because I take saltwater ferries semi frequently and I had a bicycle get eaten by the spray on that boat over the course of a few months.

>>28629723Thank you schizosister
>>28629713>batteryHmm, I wondered about the battery. It's an XR650R. They came from the factory wit no battery, but I did see a small lithium one under the seat from the dual sport conversion. >statorI totally forgot about that.I hope it's not busted; it's a discontinued baja designs kit. Thanks, anon. I totally forgot about those two; and hearing someone else say it, puts it back in the front of my mind. I'll test the stator and see if I can find a battery replacement.
>>28629708Yeah i think i mentioned that last time before you started your ride, even if you did something much harder than my rocky mountain pass the worst thing is the hard suspensions, i assume your knees got a nice beating doing something like your picrel.>im gonna build myself an adventure bike on the 690 enduro r basei mean...you already have the bags you used on the husqvy, what else do you need? windshield and barkbusters?
>>28629098Holy shit the accuracy of this post.

9 out of 10 dbt enjoyers never heard about Aprilia brand and even less know about this affordable beauty with CVT and 850cc engine.

>>28629821Look, as far as I can tell the truth of the matter is that there is nothing on this earth that we can’t do better with a computer and a robot than with our hands Motorcycles aren’t about that. If you want to easily go from point a to point b while a computer does the hard bits for you, ride a scooter. Twist and go A motorcycle is about man controlling machine like a man controls a horse. You should be in charge of as much as possible. Giving up how shifting happens is a major component.

Could somebody give me a few options for bike mounted center stands that fit a CB Hornet 1000 (2025) or a GSX-S1000 (2021- current)?They seem to come, like most new bikes, with side stands only and for reasons I am really looking to get center stands for them. Aftermarket solutions are fine, I just can't seem to find them.Thanks in advance if anybody is able to point me in the right direction.Pic unrelated I just like women in armor.
