Why is it so challenging for people to just not be obnoxious and ruin threads. For the love of God, can ALL of you stop being fags for 2 seconds? This general is hardly noticeable anymore given how little bike talk there is now. It's just dick measuring contests and retarded fringe politics that nobody gives a fuck about. Dbt needs to be about bikes not bullshit.
>>28663467We just spent all of last thread talking about bikes though, Iass. I can't wait to buy my next 390 bros, literally TWO 390s.

>>28663485in grey/black yes, althought I don't agree
>>28663423I live in Florida and will probably have to do the same thing. I got a mesh jacket from Alpinestars on sale for like $150 and while I don't think I got ripped off, it's heavy, not as breathable as it looks, and desu I think this thing would fall apart in a slide. The only advantage is sewn-in shoulder, elbow, back protectors but I can get those on these base layers and have space left over for an airbag. The airbag probably providing the most protection out of any of this. Then a random cheap leather jacket I get from Thursday can fit over it.

>>28663496I don't think you know what a cafe racer is
>>28663490random jackets don't have the room inside to the airbag, which is why airbag jackets have all the stretch panels along the sides. I got the airbag backpack because like you I like to wear nice jackets while riding.

>>28663613On the bright side, might actually be the secret forbidden ergonomics upgrade for levers
>>28663623One thing I love about my first-gen 390 Duke is the almost free levers and plastic pieces. 2017-on KTM tried to solve all their financial troubles with $100 levers and such. Not correct for what you position as a Hoolie bike.

>>28663639sweet. I bought two extra of each when I bought the bike, but then I got bark busters so I don't really know how they fare in a crash.I broke one of the plastic thingies next to the headlight bouncing off a bus, and the replacement (plus a mirror) was like tree-fiddy. But the *decal* kit to put a new sticker on the plastic was several hundred. Peeled off the remaining stigger to make it look right.
>>28663486Just ban both and be done with this stupid shit. Their feude isn't even funny it's pathetic. You're saying TWO tards are mucking everything up and we don't ban them????
>>28663616I’m not really ashamed about it, I’m not exactly gifted at the inseam so I’ve dropped my bike plenty of times at this point. And you’re right, the first thing I did was laugh it off before picking it back up.>>28663619I have to use my kickstand multiple times every day so I’d say going 1/1000 is a pretty good rate>>28663625It honestly does feel kind of nicer, but I already ordered a new lever. Replacing this one has been a long time coming since its OEM and nearly 20 years old lol
>>28663535I have crash bars, but more than that my bud and I live in redneckville USA and would have seen a bald thumb like him from a mile away and knew to just ride away.
>>28663649Maybe it was the Toyota that broke it. In any case, my fault but she left quickly and if she needed to be somewhere else that was OK with me... Not my place to argue.
>temperature is perfect fall riding temp>pouring rain and lightning
>>28663535No, dropping the bike is really stupid because now you have to go pick the fucker up. You want it upright and ready to ride so after you cream this guy with your biker buddies, you can instantly hop on and sprint off before cops arrive. This is biker gang 101

>>28663900
>>28663896Looks like an old hawk 750 on the right.
>>28663906same engine as the hornet 1000, but shorter first and second gear, and peak power at 9k rpm for more daily usability.Also it has cornering ABS that lacked in the hornet
>>28663827I see it is bully hours.>>28663766Cb300r does 7 and the rebel also does 7. Both have the same gearing but different intake designs. Cbr and cb300f had the better 0-60 even with no torque.Cbr500r and cb500f do mid 5s 0-60 on average when people tested them. It is what it is, probably just bad rider or bad gearing for the weight for getting it to move from stop.
>>28663912I was mainly talking about the cowl and paintjob.
>>28663915>Cb300r does 7Nope its 6.25~.5, every source online such as cycle world says the same and you can even watch it yourself https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Il_dfrC-iYThat image the other tard posted is just total nonsense, even a base ninja 400 has better numbers, complete skill issue and fake news.
Doing some yoga helped me feel more fluid in controlling the bike with my body. If you are serious about riding you need to keep your body in check. If you cant lean the bike cuz your back is stiff then you aren't making the most of it.
>>28663924Cbr300r and cb300r are different bikes anon, ai makes the same mistake but the cb300r despite weighing less has a less aggressive cam and intake designs. Still the numbers are within the 6s but the rebel on the same exact cams gets a reported 7.2s-8s 0-60 while only weighing 50lb more.
>>28662905dude even if you're lane splitting where it's illegal and get in an accident where somebody egregiously breaks the law and hits you, you still need a lawyer. it's not suing the person either, your lawyer is going after their -insurance company- to get you the maximum payout. get a lawyer dude
>>28663941>>28663941>Cbr300r and cb300r are different bikes anonMy b.
cbr300r isn't fast but that's not the point. it's slow as balls to get to 80mph but around the city it's fun to whip around cause it weighs nothing and that hoe gets like 75mpg. not for me but it's a cheap beater
>>28663945>CB300R isn’t fastSame engine btw
>>28663926>yoganigga just stretch lol, gay ass
>>28663950>tricked by ai slop Got this place is low iq.
>>28663950wow Honda is a good brand.
>>28663950i'm gonna assume this is a shitpost for my mental sanity
>>28663950God the ai is so busted. To post findings people have had that aren't cbr300r, the best 0-60 for the rebel is 7.2s stock, cb300r was 6.6s(it also makes more torque and has better mpg slightly in forum posts but that is more hearsay). engines use the same cam and timing but the air fuel ratios are different. Rebel uses a stupidly long velocity stack as the thai tuners have come to work around, similar to crf300 tuners realizing the intakes choke the engine a lot past 40mph. Unfortunately the cbr300r tuning of ari's day really only means something to grom swapers and the crd guys keep trying to use cbr intakes instead of just velocity stack swaps.Kinda like my shitbike rebel but turning this version is a huge pain in the ass even if the engines accessible because there isn't many tuning options for home and I would need a shop.
>>28663942This.Don't EVER let a cagie even come ten feet away from you and not lawyer up. If you get as much as a scratch on your bike, lawyer time. I am serious.

>>28663999zased hondani
>>28664011Take him to a vet. The thing around his hips could just be from jumping from too high. Or it could be a sign of arthritis (outdoor cats develop that super early because they routinely jump from extremely high places)
>>28663648its the chopped single seat rear with the hump on the back that makes a cafe racer a cafe racer, not bikini fairings.
>>28664011Ok keep in mind about stray cats: There is a chance he has leukemia. This is important because they put leukemia cats down because it's contagious in cats. If they say anything about it, take that fucking cat back immediately. Put him in the cage and walk out the door. Any word past 'Leukemia' is them trying to convince you to put the cat down, and you should never do that just because you were concerned about it. It will haunt you for a while. >ask me how I know
Which slide pants do you wear I notice leather coats but I take it leather pants would be hot and make me look gay.
>>28664058My quick google shows that he doesnt display any symptoms of leukemia. But it seems like his QoL would be pretty shit. Why let him suffer?

Thinking about striple 765 again… apparently it’s easy to just throw Daytona fairings on it since they share a frameBut I can’t get a good consensus on reliability, everywhere I read online I can’t find anyone with significant mileage on one. They all have 10,000 miles or less and say they take it to the dealer to get everything done. I understand it’s a newer bike so not a lot of people have *had* to work on it but it’s crazy to me that none of these people have anything to say about it!!!!I’ve heard from some owners that the valves are rarely out of spec despite the small interval and I’ve heard from other owners about totally faultless major engine malfunction. I’d never buy anything new so I’m really apprehensive on getting something that isn’t proven bulletproof but it feels like triumph owners don’t actually want to prove that. Frustrating.It’s all worry for nothing I guess, my bike has a very long life ahead of it so I’m not very worried about having to get something new so soon.
>>28664167From what I understand there's a range of years when they had specific electrical issues and if you someone already went through a daytona or speed triple in the past he will just know what to replace or check after buying but someone who doesn't know won't know until they break and then it'll be frustration time.
>>28664153Empathy elevates the animal into a human.
>>28664167Modern Turnips are pretty reliable.
>>28663791Flashed ECU majority won't have
ECUs exist to be flashed
>>28663915I had a CB300R.I was able to do 0-100kph in about 6ish seconds.Full tuck, quick shifting and I was a skeleton (63kg) at the time.
>>28664187Probably changed the exhaust system too. Might as well swap the engine for a bigger one and then boast about new top speed on /dbt/.
>>28664167Such a cute poster omg
>>28664153I guess he became more of a shop cat now with how much he hangs around. The boss doesnt want him there but can't get rid of him either lol. He just showed up under on of the trailers one day meowing. Now he is a resident. The only problem is that my mom also got a new leather sofa. But she seems on board with it.
>>28664230Also I have though about taking him home since he showed up but never did because honestly, he'd be cooped up in an apartment all day so I'd be taking away his freedom.
>>28664226Cute non-gay poster that is why I love him.

What's more important off road, tyres or suspension?

I've been riding for almost daily for the last few years because I was too scared to drive a car and figured riding a motorcycle would be easier. How much longer can I keep this up until I need to get a car?
Had some young whipper-snapper filter up in front of me at the lights, aggressively, sneakers, shorts and a sweater on some kind of straight-piped harley.He tried to give it the beans off the light but I easily kept up on him without shifting out of first. Guy crests the hill at double the speed limit after I button off and start braking. INSTANTLY pinged by a bike cop a 1/4 mile out. Praise jesus for the silencers I've got bunged in the twin, cop completely ignored me.
>>28664280Really depends on you, brother.My first and 2nd vehicles were bikes, rain or shine, winter or summer for 8 years before I picked up a station wagon and eventually an MX5. 9 Years later I still have the MX5, 250 and another litre. If you do get a car, get one with an emphasis on utility.
>>28664284Makes sense, if I do get one it would only be for the ability to transport goods and people. Funnily enough, I never even saw myself as the type who would get a motorcycle. Should have seen me at the DMV applying for that M1 license. While it was and remains fully legal and defined in the handbook, they really had to dig through their stuff to figure out how to make it happen.
>we want to be like Yamaha-the color
>>28664278The wheel just goes onto a shaft. No aligning needed.
>>28664287Over the years, my parents (both wagons) or work vehicles available for free hire filled the gap. If the Stagea didn't run me broke on gas I'd have kept it, but after so many years on a bike I was hooked with semi-slicks on the MX5 doing corners.That said, I'm pretty happy having a diesel euro 6 doublecab in the driveway, even if the company owns it... It holds;>People>Stuff>Palletized stuff>Literally anything bigger than a double cheeseburger
>>28664287Yeah nc dmv you can't go straight to motorcycle. They have you do the driving and riding practical just to get a licence. Not sure how many states do it this way.
>>28664290Just saying. Mate had the same feeling, chalked it down to being a single male for too long until ti started spitting o-rings on only one side of the chain.
>>28664297cali will let you but from my experiences its a surprise to even the staff there
>>28664297Mfw being 15 taking my learners bike license, they sent me around some cones for a practical handling test and then hit me with the scratchie-multichoice test and sent me on my way alone on a screaming 250.

Under any video / news article about EV bikes I see> Boooo! :vomit: Not a real bike!!!!!!!What makes people write that? I get that not everyone is willing to buy a range-limited bike, but what's up with this visceral overreaction?
>>28664333Catering to their demographic, whatever it is. If someone said "Hey anon, here's a lightning 218 to daily for a couple months" I'd probably just leave a trail of cum everywhere I went.I'm an easy mark, so a 250I4 does the same to me but I also own a bike described as 'too throttle-sensitive' and I love it, so fuck them. Bikes are 90% straight line thrill, 10% cornering.
>>28664333it's same with cars, youtube is either>EVS SUCK, RANGELMAOor>SHILLING PRODUCT, I NEVER SAY ANTYHING BAD ABOUT ANY EVNobody want's to know about everyday experience or people who think yeah I like it i guess
>>28664335>>28664334>>28664333The only legit user experiences I see posted are for ev dirtbikes, in that space it seems like it could take off but for street the few real experiences with zeros have people underwhelmed by the things.
>>28664321Kek.
>>28664334I love driving the little shitter LDV van at work. Just about smokes anything to 40mph before eventually hitting its top speed of 70 a half hour later. Fucker chirps and hits traction control when you floor it empty at 20mph.
>>28664340Ev dirkbikes are big on account of the short gearing and towering torque. Top speed meh.https://youtu.be/8zdIwv-XJiM?si=iSVL6J5MmdKmTTmV

Not in a desert I guess, but still, it ain't about the speed.
>>28664348Fully agree.
>>28664344I have no idea about dirt bikes, let's say you take this on a trailer somewhere and get 2 hours use out out it, is that enough? No way you can charge it in typical dirt bike environments.
>>28664357Couple hours to charge, couple hours to deplete by the looks of things.https://wmr1.com/products/stark-varghttps://electriccyclerider.com/2023/09/17/stark-varg-battery-range-test/
>>28664357Amateur reporting in. Depending on the ride, a solid 2 hour trail one-way on heavy, heavy dirt and hills is grounds (for me) to have an hour break and lunch. I've been on a few few 2-3-4 hour enduro's but they were more hardpack higher speed. Never come close to draining the tank on my pigfat XR400 though.
Hey reditors I can’t get the balls to wheelie. What can I do? I need to post nooners on an anonymous Finnish pineapple carving telegram channel or they won’t fill my narcissistic supply. What do I do here? Stuck on this beginner bike.I’ve got no test and am impotent if that matters.TIA

>>28664390The first step is to grow a pair by facing your fear upfront. For that you have two options: make a selfie while standing in front of a moving train, or show an oncoming truck who's the boss by riding straight in it's way on the fastest road you can find.

>>28664521>>28664521>Unlike Yamaha or Aprilia>YamahaWhy are you pretending like Yamaha has any style? The only nice looking thing they ever made was the previous gen R6, and even that was only good with a custom paint job unless you got the Raven edition. Newest Honda 600 has one of the best paintjobs Nips have put out in years. Nu-Yamaha doesn't have a single good looking bike out right now.

hey tyre question, if I were to replace my touring tires with Shinko 705s, the touring tires are tubeless, these are tubed, is that a problem?
MV Augusta exhausts always remind me of Pipe organs. By far the best looking exhaust aesthetics of any brand. >>286645834 smaller pipes would not mean 4x weight. Low IQ.

>>28664589Not a single one of those bikes looks good or have any defining feature to them, and some like the XSR900GP look outright dreadful and are literally just hipster signals for "dude retro lmao".
>>28664600>opinions opinions opinionsWanna hear mine? I think the bike you posted looks absolutely horrible, I'd be embrassed to be seen in that shit. Looks like the target age for those looks is 14 years olds
The one thing we can all agree on is that Kawasucki has the absolute worst looking bikes of any brand and that MC Augusta exhausts put everyone else to shame. >>28664597When you bust do you try quickly swapping each hole mid O to ensure all holes are satisfied?>>28664602>Ehrm I would be embarrassed to ride something for people who still have hair on their headsThat low T boomie feel, top kek.

My question is how.

Does this look good to you?for me: YES
>>28664680Matte paint is ugly.
>>28664680no, I hate itbut I am going to buy an XSR700 soon
They should trade discords and just start arguing directly with eachother
>>28664680Ugly and no character. It has no soul in its design. Nothing about this bike looks memorable. I think about the classic R1, RC51, 996, k5 GSXR, or a S1000RR or many other bikes. Or even the Dukes or RCs, they have their own look, this looks very generic and cookie cutter but ugly. Old good looking Yamahas are dead, except for T7 and a few other bikes.
>>28664689The lad and the lass should have a boxing match and live stream it.

>>28664703>EuropeanWho owns KTM again?
Sixty miles use now. Speedo broke on the way. Wire lose on the front wheel. KM counters never worked though, trip counter can't be reset. Needle bouncy. Might replace with an MPH model if I can find one.Headlights and rear lights stopped working and battery stopped charging as I have to push start it now. And found a little oil leak in the gear box, which might explain the previous owner's gift of two bottles of gear oil.Shop can fix. I bought it to fix myself but I could be frigging around for weeks and seeing as I want two new tires anyway they can do the rest.
>>28663475It's really not. The mt09 engine is about as boring as they come
>>28664703Ari from Revzilla had one of these, it was a piece of shit, he had to rebuild the engine too often, he tried to like it but sold it because it's just too bad
>>28664710>mt09 engine>boring
>>28664708>Who owns KTM again?Now it makes even more sense, Yamaha hater is a jeet. He likes KTM because they're CEO of KTM now
>>28664711He bought the pre-2016 edition that would blow the gasket head from getting too hot, was fixed, he should have focused on upgrading the cooling. Shame because the 2015 version was the best looking with the ultra tidy exhaust, after that they went to the typical uggo asymmetric side cannon like the nips. >>28664708>NowIts only now, previously it was European, and it still technically is, however it is likely more will be shifted to India in the future.

I'm still in my lurk phase, but when I see people arguing over some of these high speed bikes and if they are good or not, is it really common for everyone arguing about them to not actually own said bike, or even one of it's competitors? Or to have experience racing them? How do you know who's full of shit? Ask for lap times?
>>28664694What motorcycles released in this century have this type of seat aka without passenger (except track bikes and cruisers of course)?
>>28664744You can buy a rear seat cowl for literally every single bike.
>>28664748That looks like shit. And it's not what I was asking anyways
>>28664729Enough to know LAR9P is neither one of those.

>>28664637Honda Sabre is such a sick ride, way ahead of its time and is still a fast bike compared to modern bikes, it's a 40 year old design, Honda was way ahead of the curve then.
>>28664739It's called benchracing and happens with cars too. The fastest benchracers are the slowest IRL because they lack the experience required to know being fast is less about the bike and more about the skill
>>28664739Also, bikes are so fast, the marginal differences between one bike to another is meaningless outside of the track. On top of that, the majority of anons can't max the handling of a Grom anyways, so benchracing is all we have
