I just put a new front sprocket on my TW200 and now my new top speed is 74mph bros. I can cruise on 65mph interstates with throttle to spare. I used to be maxing at 63 and torturing the engine at 55.

>looking at bikes >2022 s1krr, 4k milesthe absolute state of these tyres the guy must've just rode it in straight lines for 4k and did nothing stock exhaust, tail, bars, mirrors
I thought it was going to hit the sprocket cover, but actually it worked out perfectly brahs, GP shift is a-go. Fuck yeah.Unfortunately my chain, sprocket, and rear wheel dampeners need to be changed out, least its all bretty cheap. Oil filters should be here on the weekend or early next week too. Lil 390 should be feeling bretty good by the end of next week I think.
>>28642967Those aren't the OEM tire, it came with Metzelers from the factory.
Trying out electric motorcycles was a mistake.I have no desire to ride on exploding dinosaurs anymore.But no electric bike matches my needs and/or preferences.I'm mad that the world doesn't cater to my wants.
>>28642986some models come with bridgestone as stock in the UK, I think it started with 2021 for the s1krr, but theyre basically a lotto of what you actually get depending on the dealership, and cant tell where exactly this was registered
>>28642988what are your needs?as long as youre not a 300lbs advdad, you can basically kit out most electric bikes for normal bike stuff
>>28642989pretty sure they were S20s not RS11s, regardless I doubt that is the original rear

>>28642991"Normal bike stuff" while being limited to 100km and spending at least an hour charging, yeah.High-range bikes are heavy pigs, light bikes have pathetic ranges, and fast-charging bikes like Yadea Kemper that can get to 80% in 10-15 minutes did not hit the market yet.
>>28643013>posting the first bike you find on /r/s1000rrkill YOURself what the fuck do you expect me to do when I'm buying a bike? just fucking turn up to the showroom and purchase it no questions asked >oh by the way, its half-pink half-orange and the rear brakeline is actually made of cheesestring >>no problem mate, some poser on /dbt/ said im a faggot for caring anyway!

>>28642988You're probably 2 decades to early, anon. I dunno, get a PhD in Chemistry and trade your youth for a nobel prize in Chemistry for solving the energy density problem with batteries.Either way though, I fully expect every g20 country to ultimately ban recreation and small ICE engines by then whether a real alternative exists or not, because we love painting ourselves into corners as a species.

>>28642988>I have no desire to ride on exploding dinosaurs anymore.The problem is that you trade it for riding on exploding blue crystals insteadand the fires they create can't be put out with water.
>>28643037yes yes, but at least 30 congolese kids directly died or got lung cancer from making my magic crystal box its a worthwhile trade if you ask menot to mention the countless bugmen lost in the research stages, but theyre a sunk cost
Would it be smart to replace all the body panels of my VFR with different colored plastic to produce this kind of effect?
>>28643046it makes your bike uniquewhich is a good thing if you want a conversation starter but also a negative if you ever plan on running

>>28643023If I had trails right outside my house it would be perfect. Surron owners claim real-world range to be as low as 40km if you have to go on faster roads.>>28643033Yeah, if I'll focus on materials science these 2 decades will fly by. But nah.>I fully expect every g20 country to ultimately ban recreation and small ICE engines If that happens I'll just move to backwaters like Bulgaria or some other place where fun is not banned.>>28643037I'd take my chances on turning into a ghost rider.
>>28643025Algae, yeah, but I call it dino juice because I like how it sounds. And most of it comes from Mesozoic era, the era when big reptiles were the kings.
>>28643046Ah yes, the VW harlequin special.The only way faster than the bike itself to convey to the world that the rider has autism. Tbh you could just wait till you dump your viffer and then slowly swap each panel over time to produce the same effect but with purpose.
>>28643065Well my red bike already has a blue front fender from the old owner. And the tail plastic is cracked on both sides and the only one on eBay is blue but it happens to match the fender so I'm thinking of just shoving it on
>>28643066In that case, may the jigsaw puzzle piece power flow through you my V4 brother in arms.
Any SV650/DL650 chads running aftermarket pipes? Which did you go with? I'm looking at Delkevic for my older model
>>28643090akra, every time
Has anyone else had a boomer try to yell at you or finger-wag, or get you to stop because you were riding in a "spirited manner"?
>>28643090The 2-2 looks really cool
>>28643103Yeah but I pulled out my gun and shot him
>>28643046Aesthetic choices are subjective. Smart only enters into it if you're concerned about selling it that way.You do you, Anon. Life is too short to give a shit about being cool at the expense of your own happiness.
>>28642957>TW200 on the highwayI road a TW200 on my motorcycle safety course, it's hilarious to imagine one on the highway. Good for you anon
Who was in the wrong here?https://youtube.com/shorts/1Z_PL1OMN8Q
>>28643129Somebody was sinning. Probably everybody.
>>28643129guy recording wasnt actually looking behind himthey were probably being retards as a group and got into an argument with the driverwhich is why they'll never upload the full video
>>28643129The third dude that got hit was such an improbable thing that I laughed out loud (then felt bad)
>>28643122Well why? It can go 65mph, the speed limit on interstates is 65, you can go in the right lane where people follow that, and avoid the left lane where people are going 70+.
>>28643122The other day I saw a TW200 roll by that had a sick paint job like those old fighter planes with the teeth.
>>28643129>three sport bikes on a public roadThey were all wrong
>>28643150>It can go 65mphThat poor engine...
>>28643150does it weigh enough to not get battered by the winds?
>>28642988You want my zx14r? It will satisfy the need for sneedLow price of 15 billion wulongs2 for 1 buy my crf 450 rl for double the borgorbucks
>>28643156After the sprocket upgrade it's not even close to redlining even at 65. I guess I'm in shape though so a small engine can propel me fine most people on here are 300+ lbs and need a 1500cc wide seat windshield fat boy bike to feel comfortable for their fat ass
t-thanks
>>28643150Where I live the default Interstate is 70mph (or 75mph away from the city,) but speeds up to 95mph are normal even in the metro loop. Any bike going under 70 is going to have a bad time.
>>28643021Yeah these threads have gotten somehow gayer than when pink horny and dolltroll hornypink resurrected european extreme mode activated the almonds
>>28643162Where I live the fastest interstates go is 65 and it sometimes alternates down to 55 for stretches
bros what happened to r3boi?did he cwash?he's not posted for a while
>>28642947My bike needs a full service, but I'm a dumb wrenchlet so I decided I'm not doing things like checking valve clearances or changing brake fluid. My questions are, should I have the fork oil changed, and should I do it myself? I read someone online saying that it's only worth changing the oil along with the fork seals, and to only do that if they're leaking, which mine aren't. Changing fork oil looks pretty easy compared to the fork seals.
>>28643171How many miles since last time?
>>28643046>smartidk, but it might look cool.
>>28643162I have an air cooled 650cc single, and everytime a soccer mom goes flying by me in a Subaru Outback at 85mph, I begin to understand why the ADV guys run twins, or why the dual sport folks want Honda to being back the xr650r.

>>28643158Did you skip over the second line of my post?>Low price of 15 billion wulongsWikia says a pizza costs 7k woolongs. I ain't paying 15M EUR for any shitbike even if I could.
>>28643129The instructor, who didn't teach the rear-ending retards to always maintain an appropriate following distance.
>>28643150I realize I sounded a little patronizing, I didn't mean it that way. Riding the hell out of a TW200 on the highway is pretty cool, I just didn't know they could go that fast. The whole reason I chose it on the course was that it was the slowest bike they had so I figured it would be the easiest bike for the test.>>28643175I go back and forth on this, I have a dr650 so I run into similar situations, but the thing is that having more bike won't make the soccer mom slower
>>28643206Well they aren't that fast stock cause they're geared for torque rather than speed.
>>28643167>did he cwash?Cute but stay bacc
This is a 600 but 1000s existhttps://youtu.be/p1Cl7FthfLw?si=5dxLAiQg2WvfaT3N
>>28643031Maybe
>>28643162can't be that bad, at least his TW got some torque, my 125 goes to 45 in a steep incline on the highwayand it has fairings so it feels like sailing
>>28643172Bike is 25 years old but only has 7000 miles on it, I'm operating under the assumption that no major maintenance work has been done.

I almost cried today. I was riding my Honda Grom to the haircutting place and when I came back after my haircut I got back on and got on the bike to ride home when this group of 4 guys on sports bikes rolled up and said "FUCK IS THAT NIGGA" and began circling me for 10 fucking minutes so I couldn't drive out and leave. When I finally had a chance to escape their loops around me I tried speeding down out of the parking lot and getting onto the road. Once I got on and thought I escaped they followed and just sped past at 85+ in the 45mph road intentionally to humiliate me for my small bike.
>>28643129>them Rube Goldberg / Dr Seuss crashes>haunted bikesDamn if it wasn’t on film I don’t think anyone would’ve ever believed it.
>>28643290fucked if tru

>>28643290Damn that’s like the bully going and kicking sand on the guy with glasses-tierDon’t sweat the small stuff anon I’m sure they were just having a laugh at your expense and it isn’t personal.Ride your ride, for some guys it’s just a prosthetic for their ego (like mine is a surrogate boner >>28643292) but the point is to have fun with it.
>>28643290>this group of 4 guys on sports bikesYou sure it wasn't 5 guys?
>About to buy new bike>Car gets intake leakThis world is dumb. None if it matters.
>>28643328Some days it feels like everything is designed to extract as much wealth from us as possible.
I slide out just making a left turn at an intersection lol, think I gassed it too hard. No real damage that wasn't already there luckily. Motorcycling kinda sucks in that there isn't really any way to know something bad is going to happen until it does, its like you feel totally fine one fraction of a second, and the next you are sliding around on the ground like a dumbass.

>>28642973Nice brah. I test rode a 390 Adventure and was keen on getting one but opted for an ol' Japscrap shitbike that, knock on wood, has treated me pretty well.I'll be in Vancouver until Tuesday, but the weather is supposed to start being shitty.Thanks for the recommend for pho, I'll have to give the place a shot next time I'm up here (presumably here for a couple weeks in November, worst case sometime in Spring).
>>28643355A lot of us started out on dirt bikes or low displacement beaters and made mistakes when the stakes were lower. Guys who go straight to fast bikes on tge street missed out on that and often learn where the limits are the hard way.
>>28643276I like my old Icon Daytona.
>>28643444
Installed a fender eliminator for the Ducati, upon taking these bolts off, they don’t seem to be covered in grease... They made a very liquid-esque sound when unscrewing them. The smell, genuinely smells like my bedsheets did after a few weeks when I was in highschool. And the goopy look and slimy texture has me concluding that Ducati busts into their threads instead of using regular threadlocker. DISGUSTING!

Tomorrow, I'm riding all fucking day.
Come on, someone talk about motorcycles with me.
>>28643516>>28643520Snapped the pinch bolt on my front fork so I’m taking the scooter out for a joyride tomorrowIt got new tires recently and I’m curious to see how it corners
>>28643520I need to hurry up and finish putting my R6 together so I can decide if I want to sell it or keep it. I also need to sell another bike for space. I don't know if I want to get some kind of muscle cruiser or something like an FZ1/6 to ride all over the place like R3 anon. And I just discovered the Vtwin tuono looks super cool and is really inexpensive. I see you've been rekindling your interest in your 999. Everything about that bike looks so good.
>captcha anon2
>Honda P2 in JapanAnon, are you going to watch the MotoGP Sprint race in a few minutes?
>>28643520I got curious when you said this feels like riding stretched out and made me think about my FZR and my RD which are 80's bikes and they have a stretched out gas tank. Do you feel the tank is longer compared to the other sporbikes u got?
>>28643499Love this color
>>28643542
>>28643355It's the m/o/torcycle's greatest filter. Knowing that limit requires experience but experience requires eating shit at least once and even more importantly, learning a lesson from eating shit >the most important part of falling down is how we pick ourselves back up
>>28643542This is one of my fav sportbikes, too bad it's too big for me so I got the 400
>>28643526Oh fuck, did you have to tow it home? What happened? >>28643530What year R6? I've come to realize recently that perhaps instead of buying my zx14 for comfy sport biking, I should have bought a z900rs cafe. My wife recently bought her own bike, 2021 ninja 650. I rode it home for her and it felt so nice for commuting. However, when you want to get down for ripping through corners, the bars are a bit high. Everything is a trade off.I would say get a comfy sport bike but I'm diehard sport bike so I'm biased.>Vtwin TuonoI'll have to research that>I see you've been rekindling your interest in your 999I have, and I can't fucking believe I started on that bike. It's an absurd machine. It's so aggressively stanced, and difficult to maneuver comparatively, and yes it is so beautiful.

>>28643542she has cute cat eyes
>>28643549Maybe a little longer, but I feel the issue is more the shape of the gas tank and the gap between the seat.I figured I'd just make a video real quick to show it.https://youtu.be/VGnsQNi6hnU
