>>28665882Yeah your alright bud, although I still haven't seen your riding yet. Only that clip of the girl talking to you and the random piggie pulling up.I've been waiting for a Shoomer run and a video from the R1 guy, but so far I'm left high and dry.
Cagie try to change lanes with any sort of competency challenge (IMPOSSIBLE):#2https://litter.catbox.moe/6g48hvsjrdhkhh7j.mp4#3https://litter.catbox.moe/6um7qs8kknrtuv8v.mp4#1 (posted before)https://litter.catbox.moe/wm8r1yggrgv74787.mp4Total Cagie Death.
Remind only naked are real bikes, windscreens are cagie-lite cope for fake riders.
>>28665884My baik in op, yay! Thanks you baker san.
Let's assume I don't want kawasaki ninja, honda cb and rebel. What would be a good beginner bike in this case? "Just get whatever or this litre bike" is bad advice btw
>>28665905What kinda riding do you want to do?
/adventure/
28665897>wtf people are hesitant to change lanes when they see me doing 2x the speed of the flow of traffic and going into their blind spotgenuinely kill yourself
>>28665905what country are you fromwhat bikes do you likehow much do you have to spendif youre a euro and have to do CBT>A licences, I'd suggest a honda CB125F simply because theyre GOOD, and once you have your A license, an MT-07 as a "beginner" bike if youre american, you can kinda just skip the 125 stage and just hop on an MT-07 or an MT-03 if youre less confident - theyre really solid learner bikes with good dealership support and large internet knowledge bases, as well as being extremely easy to work on if you want to learn that too
post whols
>>28665909More like:>Throw turn signal on>Wait 5 entire seconds until speed biker catches up to you from a block away>Still don't turn>Wait until he tries to pass you>Decide that now when hes trying to pass is the perfect moment to start turningJust another comatose cagie decision tree moment.
>>28665905if you don't give us any details at all except for some random bikes you don't like you aren't entitled to getting better advice than the naked bike advice.So just get whatever naked bike you can afford.
>>28665823>>286657901200/1250/1300GSA, Africa Twin and Tenere* riders generally do actually go offroad>to get to their camp ground spotbut the entire adv genre now is essentially 90s dakar rally-style larp for people that want to put a tent on the back of their bikes and maybe sleep away from home for the weeekend ducatti basically just made a tall tourer nothing wrong with that inherently, but the category is a joke
>>28665894Oh, how about dis one?https://files.catbox.moe/dbxk4b.mp4
>>28665917All ADV bikes are for fat fuck LARPers, if you were actually /adventure/ you would use an enduro.
>>28665918Quintessential Rockies logging road certified moment. I should get an enduro one of these days. Maybe I could own THREE 390s, the Duke, the RC, and the Enduro. Lol.
>>28665917>ducatti basically just made a tall tourerthis is the bike most people need but refuse to buy because they look kinda gawky
28665915Video "#2"Youre doing 120-140 coming up behind the guy, at night, in a 60 zonehe indicates to change lange *AFTER THE JUNCTION*, you speed up on him, without slowing down, cut off the car in the right lane and enter his blind spot, causing him to hesitate and cancel his intention to change laneVideo "#3"106 in a 60, you divebomb 2 cars with minimal room, and enter the red hondas blind spot to do a third, he sees you are about to kill yourself, so he pulls back in to his own lane - you then continue to split at 90-100, while still in a 60 zoneVideo "#1"we've been over this before - you habitually sit in his blind spot, splitting at 60, while traffic is at 30, when he goes to change lane, you tailgate him and then enter is opposite blind spotyou deserve to get knocked offyou deserve to dieyou deserve to have your expired helmet disintegrate to dust as your skull hits the ground you are the reason the public hate bikersyou are the reason we are legislated against you are a retard and a faggotand worst of allyou are a fucking leaf

>>28665932>>28665938Any day now, plebbitdads. I make sure to always bless the big trucks before I split, the Street Gods upon Mount Osplitmus favor those who do. Its what gives my my sixth cagie sense to detect when a split will be closed to me like below:https://litter.catbox.moe/62xn7iq4zkjcytpz.mp4
>>28665967Ok
>>28665960bear 650 as well now
>duur im a retard fuck cagies wtf?!?!?!
>>28665969the chain grab was cool, luv watching all the nobikes and redditards who could never split seethe
>>28665938It’s all seetheGuys on dad bikes are more comfortable, ride more so they’re better at it, and more cautious so they’re less likely to have trouble.But he has made being a tough biker part of his personality. Since most bikers (by mile ridden) are comfy maxxing, he perceives this as a threat to his self image
28665975>replying to himself
call me redditard all you want but divebombing cars that have the space and are trying to change lanes is absolute dickhead behaviour and probably makes that person less likely to give any quarter to bikes in the future which makes it worse for the rest of usif I could delete every car on the road I would but I'm not going to get on my bike and act like a petulant child because they're there, fucking grow up
How does this tire look?
>>28665994And how do I handle this rust?
>>28665994kino
>>28665994like its been left in a barn for 10 years>>28665997new chain, suspension can probably be removed and scrubbed down
>>28665957No im a '92 original hustler>>28665956Maybe i should just darkside the zx14r and go offroad world touring experience on a 3 grand budget
>>28665997new chain or you just oil the shit out of it, rust will fuck off.
>>28666003>rust will fuck offyou have 0 mechanical knowledge
>>28665968No, once you help then with their clutch issues they will forever forgrt about (((you))) and your hunble 4chin request>>28665997You probably want a new chain>>28665988We all gotta pick our battles and hills to die onThe new rider experience is usually squidding into a smelt mark on pavement, hoonigan hooligan shenanagin hoodrat delinquency, or they haddalayerdown and got scared, or God forbid youre that guy who just rides the speed limit on a litrebike- forever, for he is his own restrictoidFor me?Its the energy of whatever picrel is
>>28665975They hate us, cus they aint us. They are frightened by wind so much they need a cagie screen to protect themselves from it, they are too scared to split, they fear wet conditions. Only real riders understand that riding is about embracing the elements, feeling the wind, the assault of the rain, and the thrill of a cagie obstacle course. We ride in any conditions and dance in the rain:https://litter.catbox.moe/hezzvec0itj8xd76.mp4>>28665988If there were no cagies then there would be nothing to split, we prefer having them on the roads here.
>Only real riders understand that riding is about embracing the elements>hasnt posted a single clip or even picture of him out on his bike in inclement weather
>>28666000> like its been left in a barn for 10 yearsOk, so it’s like I thought. Can I buy the tires I need and take them to any tire shop? It’s a 1980 CB750F.> new chain, suspension can probably be removed and scrubbed downI’m going to guess that both of those factors could lead to the rough ride?>>28666003More than anything I’m trying to get it safe to ride and make sure nothing is eating itself. I spent $500 on it, he wanted $800. So $500 in new parts and repairs isn’t off budget.The rear brake master cylinder doesn’t work, but he gave me the 32-1458 kit for it.
>>28666018Literally raining in that video, Iass. The real irony is you sitting here everyday seethin yer poor little ass off and having nobike to post at all LMAO!
>>28666025if i were you, get it in a truck or on a trailer and take it to a proper honda dealership to service
>>28666012>cagers are the obstwcles youre SUPPOSED to avoid and dodgeLike a real life froggerWhat a philosopher
28666028>raining in that videogood joke
>>28665994post 4 number date code on the tireand show the tread. side view isn't as helpful
>>28666031>The rain literally sitting on the dash and camera lens don't existLol, how many asshurt nobike posts are ya planning ta make?
>>28666031not him, but look at the sidewalk how its reflective and slick. he has a shit cam with low bitrate which has this effect of "deleting" rain
>>28666029Honda will still service a 45 year old bike?
>>28666037Honda under mr.honda used to keep all their old tooling and parts for like 50 years strsightThen nu-honda came along and all we got was ptwin sloppa globohomo>mfw honda legacy sold out to bottom line corporate board shareholder jannoidsIll never forgive the ceo jannids for what theyve done, never
>>28666043I have a friend who’s mechanically savvy enough to keep multiple old vehicles on the road.
YAMAHA
>>28666012Mate, I got no dog in your race about how you all ride, but you're waxing real poetic about all that freedom in following a little black line that, should you ever leave it, you will likely be fined or go to jail for tresspassing, assuming you don't just get shot by the owner for touching his dirt. (And like a good hypocrite, if I ever save up enough, I'll buy my own dirt and make sure no one else ever gets to touch it.)I know we're all supposed to spit on the cagies for being stupid cattle, but I don't see the point when I seem to end up in the same damn feedlot. I guess we did get there a bit faster.
>>28666001Have you seen the guy that takes his busa off road? There was one with goldwing as well.
>>28665972Bear is my kinda bike, when I test rode gt 650, its was such a smol compact lil bike it was awesome.
>>28666058And your dirt bike follows its brown line, in a safe space away from everyone else who are deciding what you may or may not do. A man without society and civilization is a beast - we do not shun others, but rather embrace them - only demanding that they recognize a collective and individual do both exist at once, you are not merely a sum, but many parts of a whole. Freedom is within the mind, and also the physical, however these laws and rules are not physical, you abide by them only because you fear invisible power, you are shackled without restraint in the real. They say I must drive in such and such a way, I must hang such and such a thing off my bike, papers, documents, you are tagged from birth via a code no different than cows in the barn. Who said these things must be this way? Was I apart of this conversation? Clearly not! Just because so and so says something, does not mean I must follow it if I do not agree with it.
28666035>spitting constitutes rainyeah nah fag, youre a cunt>>28666036such a shame he's riding on the bone dry roads designed to expel rain, and not on the sidewalk
>>28666037possibly, depending on how remote you arebrand dealerships usually have at least 1 old timer that enjoys working on old(read: shit) bikes that is actually their master mechanicif not, they'll probably know a guy who knows a guy that'll do it for a 6pack
>>28666069u dont ride and it shows lmfao
28666073and yet, I doin a wetter climate than you retarded leaf
>and yet, I doSure kid.
>>28665677I need to get an engine guard for mine also. I know you guys make one which half engine guard, half beating stick. Just have to stop being lazy, and poor and order it.And how is the BMW going?
I'm gonna buy a GSXR 600 as my first bike and what are you gonna do
>>28665894>>28665918>going to have to make a new friendship ended with image
>>28666121Nothin, strictly speaking at low RPM supersports are pretty easy going. The only problem that occurs is if you fuck up and whiskey the throttle, you'll go to the moon.
Does anyone else clean the tubes like this?
>>28666120Going strong, I wanna upgrade to a larger bike.
>>28666121It's slower than a 400 until you get to 8k rpm
>>28665919That’s what I adventure on
What motorcyclehttps://youtu.be/vjIwmJMqrco?t=45
>>28666140Isn't it good for a beginner?
>>28666140>GSXR is slower than lower displacement bike until you rev the fuck out of itwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowtruly you are the first genius to figure that out
Just dropped $1k on winter gear. We're all gonna be cozy soon, lads.
>>28666146Sorry, not everyone is born knowing everything like you.I also have a 400 i4 sportbike and it's faster off the line, much torquier and they reach the same redline.>>28666144In regards to that, yes but overall I think it's a very boring bike for a beginner
>>28666142But adventures can still be had on other bikes like the cb500x
>>286661432012 BMW S100RR

>>28666163Yeah I have no idea how I read that as a 4
Don't know why but I hate Kawasaki.
>>28666166Honestly I just went off pic related, and then searched for the most expensive model BMW had at the time of that release. Rapslop really is so predictable.

it's this bullshit. nobody cares enough to scroll up looking for post numbers to see who the bot is replying to because the reply itself simply isn't worth reading.how do i filter the absence of meme arrows?
Man I can't stand this faggot I swear to God it's literally 390 chamelion tranny blog chat holy fucking shit, how the fuck did this happen? There used to be so many posters now it's just him

the funny thing is, the only person that cares about the no (You) is the guy asking how to hide him not getting a (You) because it irks him that theres nothing he can do about being denied a (You) this is absolute and pure 2018 /pol/-ite babby tier schizoshit

>he's replying to himself again
How many times did you anons take the BRC? I feel like I'm not going to pass the test tomorrow I did so fucking poorly today. I am known to significantly improve after a good night's sleep but it was really bad.

>>28666225The first day is harder than the second day. Think about what you did right and also really think about the way the acceleration felt in your gut. It makes you feel better.

>>28666234usually follows what the manufacturer recommends (to prove its a bad idea)he's been a bike flipper for like 20 years, he knows that changing fluids and a quick spitshine instantly doubles a bikes value
>>28666228I would have definitely gotten myself killed or crashed into something static if I didn't do the training, now I think I will only probably crash into something static & get maimed. Never ridden a dirtbike or anything so I have no prior experience.>>28666227When I actually got going it was really nice zipping around the lot but I messed up so many of the exercises, it was really disheartening.
>>28666239Day 2 you're going to be mostly focusing on the parts that you'll be tested on. The standards on day 1 are higher than the test, like stopping from a start you don't have to get up to the same speed.Just really focus on what you're doing with the clutch and your head. Also its okay to make 1 mistake don't panic and follow it up with another mistake.
>>28666239>I would have definitely gotten myself killed or crashed into something static if I didn't do the training, now I think I will only probably crash into something static & get maimed. Never ridden a dirtbike or anything so I have no prior experience.Pshhh, I drove mine off the lot and I've never even driven manual. Just looked up some guides on youtube, then sent it. I did take it to a parking lot right across the street to practice for 45~ minutes before driving it home though. Also it was scary as FUCK doing intersections all the way back lol.
no you didnt
>>28666246Wrenchlet.
>>28666243look at that stock tail, LOL
>>28666251Still seethin about that line are ya? Remember when ya said this was someone else's bike and then went quiet after pic related?

>>28666254Thank you schizosister.
>>28666242Thanks anon, I'll stick with it.
>>28666243You're a braver man than me, anon.
>replying to himself again
>>28666267To be fair, if you're gonna buy a nice bike right away (would not recommend), then don't do what I did, because I dropped my bike twice on the way back home, and also knew I was going to drop it. Once in the parking lot, and again on a tight left corner. Also stalled it multiple times, so if you get embarrassed about looking like a fool in public learning something, then you'll die dropping your bike and stalling all over the place.
>talking with crusty old German devops guy at work>long time rider since he was conscripted back under the FRG>mention that I ride a JP dual sport, but now I want something used with a bit more top end and some fairings>"Can you find a 2000s Honda Transalp?"They didn't sell that in the US."What about a 2010s xt660z?"They didn't sell that in the US."F650 Dakar?"They did sell that one."But you will not enjoy working on that one."It's kind of weird how many of the supposed GOATs from the 2000s/2010s we just never got in the US. Shit, the Transalp was a v-twin. I thought American's loved v-twins?
>>28666295america hates competition you can get 2000 euro bikes thojust a few more years and you can get newer ones
>>28666295There is an entire class of vehicle not sold in the us the "maxi scooter". We can get the 50cc scooters easy here, but the big ones that can actually be used on our roads? Nope.
>just bought bike>had shop replace brake fluid a few days ago>go for a ride today>half way through notice what appears to be a slow leak from the reservoirIs it fair to say they fucked up somehow and should fix it for free? Granted it's a 20 year old bike so maybe a gasket cracked or something but they still should've noticed, right? Or am I overreacting?
>>28666273>you get embarrassed about looking like a fool in public learning something, then you'll die dropping your bike and stalling all over the placeYeah I was doing that like all class, I stall it then I get flustered and stall it again since I'm now eating into other's riding time.
>>28666302You'll probably still stall on occasion out in public, especially once you want to learn to launch faster, I stalled out a zillion extra times trying to get that tighter. Its worse than in a class because most people don't even know about stalling in the modern era of automatics, you just look like a fucking idiot, and then get beeped at for holding up traffic lmao. At least in the class room everyone is shit and trying to learn, in public its just angry cunts doing their wageslave commute. It is what it is, just have to take the public L and continue learning. Eventually they'll be holding all the L's wanting you split and filter through traffic taking 30 seconds to cut through 30 minutes they have to sit through.
>>28666312>wanting youwatching*
My first ride since a relatively minor (the road rash still sucked) lowside has me scared that I'm going down on every turn. This will go away, right? Also, expansion joints give me the creeps now, whereas they didn't before.
>>28665905I say fz07, sv650, or drz400.
>>28666301>they fucked up somehow and should fix it>it's a 20 year old bikeyou problem
>>28666324Depends on if you want it to go away, do you know why you crashed to begin with? I've crashed three times so far, once going wide, once stunting, and another giving too much throttle on a corner with cold tires. Its easier to get over it when you know what to fix, as you fix it, you won't worry so much about that style of crash. Enviably though you will have to understand that on a bike, you will crash. No one rides without crashing at the start, and the only people who ride without crashing in general are people who aren't learning or pushing themselves to become better anymore.
>>28666301That’s the stuff you learn to DIY so you don’t get taken advantage of. It’s supposed to have a rubber gasket, maybe they overfilled. Open it and check it out. And clean the oil it corrodes paint
>>28666338I'm not sure. I talked about it in here before, so apologies if I repeat myself. I don't know if it was:>gravel>cold offroad tires>too much lean angleI was coming into an intersection to make a left on to an on-ramp. Imagine a big S turn. The intersection is concrete instead of asphalt. As I entered, I leaned the bike over like I've done a thousand times before. I stayed wide within my lane. I kept my throttle steady, neither accelerating or decelerating. I think the front washed out before the rear, but I can't be sure. I think I was going 30mph or below.Motorcycling is definitely something I want to get good at. I'm going to do some supermoto and enduro classes for sure.
>>28666350>offroad tiresWhy the fuck are you leaning over on offroad tires?
>>28666358I don't think I'm leaning very far. And until then, they never gave any objections to it either. It's my first set, however, so I didn't know anything about how they'd react. Pirelli scorpion something or others
>>28666368First set of offroad tires. I had never ridden on knobbies before until this year.
>>28666295Those 3 bikes are trash, a DR650 is better than all of them (I owned two of those 3 and test drove the F650).>>28666358Because that's how a motorcycle turns.
>>28666368>>28666370Scorpion has everything from sumo streets to outright dirt bike tires, are you on actual pic related tires? Because this shit will have less than half the grip actual street tires have, literally worse than riding in rain. You don't lean over on knobbies, you should be riding in a delicate manner on those tires in the street. Not only that, but the compounds are different, street tires are made to grip Asphalt, this shit is made for dirt and mud. >>28666375>Because that's how a motorcycle turns.Thank you pedantic faggot.
>>28666376I went out and snapped a couple of photos.
>>28666376Lmao, if it's just because I was asking too much from dirt tires and I'm actually a big, dumb idiot, that will be comforting.>picrel TENDIE CHECK
>>28666065Yeah perhaps the way was not uberlight overbagged crf450 but instead pigfat lighlty bagged zx14r?Hmmmm
>>28666126Was always meant to be a texas bros trioQuit being a debby downie
>>28666392>>28666393Holy fuggin kek.Ok so there is something called a contact patch, this is how much your actual tire is connecting with the road for grip. The reason slick tires are better for track is because there are no gaps, meaning your contact patch has more grip than pic related - a standard street tire. I want you to imagine what your unholy off road knobies would look like if translated to a picture like this. Literally less than half the amount of contact. Now imagine if even one tiny bit of oil or gravel gets on one of the spots a knob lands on, well you are basically SoL aren't you? Because all you have touching the road is like three knobs at a time, and you just lost one.
>>28666401the early 2000s were so kino... now everything is a ECU governed slop
I have never stalled a motorcycle. Stall my car in traffic sometimes though.
>>28666338>cashing enthusiast and enjoyerBasedId crash more too if it wasnt such an expensive hobby of mine
>>28666412When we need a good 0-60 in 15 seconds, we'll know who to call.
>>28666415For me the real killer is just the recovery, like god damn the human body is such a fucking slow piece of shit. Road rash on my knee is still raised and purple after like 3 months, like breh, its just surface level damage on a small fraction of the body and you can't even get that done in a month? Meanwhile you can gain multiple inches of height in a month when you are growing. "Intelligent design" my ass.
>>28666402Cool picCan confirm, this is why you throw on sumo tire and wheelsets before doin dank nooners around a corner at like 65kph+You will otherwise lowslide doing this on knobbuloidsI have kornered on my knobulars on the express circut freedom Canadian Highway and Suburbia Roads™ a few times at or around 150kph+ and with luggages some of thoseId love to sumo this thing to its real potentialsSpeaking of which, in both instancesOne is my toes keep sliding in my mx boots on the zx14r and as much as i like them and their warmth i thi k if i wana push further i gotta slim them down and either raise the footpegs or figure out a solutions to pursue future leangains
>>28666375>Those 3 bikes are trash, a DR650 is better than all of themI'm curious for your reasoning there. I have a DR as well, and I'm willing to drop 2 inches of suspension travel (except probably not because lol, DR sag) and take on some weight for either a twin or at least water cooling.
>motonigger have announced the fakefaggot leaguereminder that theyre only investing in this now that indian dropped out of making bagger racersthey know indian would fucking smoke them, so now its just a showpiece to advertise what harleys will never doif indian (or any of the jap companies) were smart, they'd call up buell and get him to frankenstein them a better bagger to rape the competition fucking JEWS JEWly JEWvidson
>>28666402Lel alright, thanks for the remedial lessons, anon. SeriouslyI will try to be less retarded in the future. This is actually a huge relief.
>>28666427>the competitive integrity of a meme race only amerifats would pretend to care about
>>28666402Damn. Maybe I should not have shit on 70/30 street/dirt tires as much as I have.
>>28666433it could've been uniornically the most competitive and innovative motorsport (outside of IoM TT)and theyre ONLY investing in it NOW because indian dropped out after years of it being ignored
>>28666427They don't even fucking pretend to be anything like consumer bikes except for those "bags" on the side do they?
>>28666424>knobbuloidsHehe
