I've made a quarter million km on a car and never seen a sign like this one, yet must know it for the bike license
Every time I see another bike on the road there's a gonna be a race whether they like it or not.
>>28672698What's the common trait of a Yamaha girl, and how does that differ from a Honda or Kawasaki girl? I need definitions.
First for attractive Yamaha girl. I'm here to help, only Suzuki girls are attractive generally, but rejoice some attractive Yamaha girls for a while.

>>28672714Yamaha girls come with a gock, Honda girls are stupid and Kawi girls are femcels.

>In February 2006, Yamaha admitted the bike's true engine redline was more than 1,000 rpm lower than what was indicated on the tachometer and had been advertised,[12] and offered to buy back any R6 if the customer was unhappyLol, Yamajew strikes again.
>>28672757>You are not really smart, aren't you?listen here krautybollocks youre barely sentient enough to put together a full human thought on this chinese basketweaving forummaybe use your puny 80iq peabrain to add 2 and 2 together and come to the incredible conclusion of 4 ALL triangular road signs are warnings ALL pictures road signs are information maybe, just maybe, this road sign is WARNING you of some CRUCIAL INFORMATION that may be relevant to you in an area it doesnt matter if the only driving you do is from münchen to berlin on das autobahn to spend your days in Berghainas a licensed road user it is your duty to be able to comprehend and decipher such confusing pictograms to ensure the safety of yourself and other road usersif I showed you a French-Canadian stop sign, you'd not be confused by the fact it says "arret" instead of "stop", despite the fact that even the french in france say "stop" on their signs, you'd know its a stop sign BECAUSE ITS A BIG RED OCTOGN, THE SAME AS ALL STOP SIGNS anyone that driven 250km, let alone 250k km would understand thatretard

>>28672837Thank you /pol/nigger.
I wanna buy a bike but I don't wanna go through all the additional bullshit with getting an M class license (Wisconsin/USA). Could I just get a permit and hope cops won't notice?
>>28672843I still don't even have a proper license, Iass. Just did the knowledge test to get a learners so I could buy insurance and never looked back.
28672841>calling other people "pol">also calling them niggercurious
>>28672843Talk with some cops if you can find one cool enough. You may have to stick with small bores to remain under the radar. Ive been riding dirty for years and never had a cop stop me for it. Then again, Florida is cooler than Wiscahnsin
>>28672843cops are well known for never checking bikes, bikers or licensesgo ahead bro, great idea
>>28672846Guessing the knowledge test is ezpz shit?
>>28672838I asked, they refused. I even asked if I could go drop off the key and they basically just told me it was getting parted out or auctioned as scrap. Guy seemed somewhat competent, was looking at the service department's quote on the phone with me and they wanted "$4500 for damaged fairings and two front turn signals alone. I won't even go into the powerparts catalog things as they're on a whole separate quote"One of the alleged damaged fairings is pictured here... somewhere.
>>28672848Based schizosister.
>>28672841No problem, retard.
>>28672757I think you're right.
>>28672852Yeah, just did a practice quiz online for free a bunch of times. >>28672848>Ahem, actually you can't call me a /pol/nigger because only I'm allowed to say the nigger wordKWAB
>>28672858Thank you /pol/nigger.
>>28672853>somewhereknowing BMW and insurance companies, its probably something like blue being damaged (looks more like bird poo I know, but for sake of argument), and then the damage being calculated as catalogue price for the whole of green, because "you cant just patch it" that sucks major cock, unlucky brother :(
>>28672852>>28672843dont listen to the larping leaffaggothe rides a 160kg bike and cant even lift it up a kerb be a decent human being and get your license the legal way - like the leaffaggot did, because hes too chickenshit to actually do anything illegal except for the one time he "ran from the cops on foot" LMFAO
>>28672821Why even call up insurance for this? Now your baiku is orphaned.
>>28672821Hope you didnt get hurt. What happened?
>>28672872>because hes too chickenshit to actually do anything illegalRemember when you had a melty and started listing every illegal action I took in a single video, schizosister? YWNBARP (You Will Never Be A Real Piggie)
Why some bikes have those ugly transparent plastic bottles with a piss-tinted glass and others don't? I know what they are.
>>28672883because if youre on a bike that needs the pissbottle, you need to know when the pissbottle is getting empty
>>28672738thought you knew how to wheelie, lass? or is that only in a parking lot.oh wait, you're even in a parking lot...
>>28672738>>28672886Why did you just reply to yourself, Iass? Gonna have another schizo melty?
>NOOOOOOO IM NOT GETTING ATTENTION I'LL REPLY TO MYSELF
>>28672870Yup. you found it. It's where the turn signal broke off and lightly scraped the paint. Nevermind the two other scratches when I dropped a ladder on it in the garage and covered it with honda rallye red touchup paint.The BMW emblems are a separate cost from the fairings too but I wasn't told what it was. >>28672875>>28672873I got hurt and was taken away in ambulance with both broken legs and a few other things, hence insurance got involved. I too had thought it a total loss until I saw it a month after the accident and just saw it sitting under a shed. >>28662843
>>28672889>was taken away in ambulance with both broken legs and a few other things, hence insurance got involved.Aww, fuck, man. Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a jerk.
>>28672887sorry man i don't samefag or sockpuppet or whatever like you do constantlyalso i've been out all day. you were here when i left this morning and you're clearly here all day. jeeesus man go ride that thing.
>>28672889>The BMW emblems are a separate cost from the fairings tooand I bet they charge an arm and a leg for each of them too goddamn, hope your healing goes quick and youre back out there for next season
28672891>i've been out all daywell thats just a lie
>>28672890>jerkI work in an office full of boomers and the amount of "leg/feet/fall etc" jokes in daily conversation have made my skin considerably thicker. And not just due to scar tissue.
>>28672853they don't get to refuse, it's not their bike until you sign over the title. You can take it back from them any time you want. If the damage is as you say, the bike is 100% rideable and based on these pictures you don't even really need to do anything at all to it. One pannier has a scuff, the other is bent. If you can bend it so it closes you can keep it. Your engine guard is scuffed. It's whole job is to get scuffed. If they're dicking you around, write to your state insurance commission. Takes 5 minutes and can be done online. https://www.michigan.gov/difs/consumers/complaintthis complaint goes straight to someone at the insurer who handles the insurance co's relationship with the state of MI, it's outside the normal insurance team and will light a fire under your adjuster's assif you post your contract with personal info redacted i can take a look at it and maybe give you some options, i fucking hate insurance cos you should do this for every single insurance claim of any kind>t. claim adjudicator for a major vehicle insurance carrier
>>28672885Majority of motorcycles don't have them, so this argument is invalid.
>>28672887You caught me, yeah I've been sitting here all day replying to myself endlessly with the same prose as always. Think I'm about to meltdown after being mocked so frequently, its over, fuck that handsome sexy Canadian tranny with his huge massive cock that I want to suc- I mean cut off.
>>28672897CHEEZ N RICEWell, I hope insurance takes care of you and pays out for another bike.

>>28672897youch, shit man, at least you're here. I also had an accident but it was with my cage so I just got a bruise. Tho mine being written off makes a lot more sense.
>>28672898Too late for the title thing.I really don't want to spend that much time on this and I'd rather have the money to buy something cheap at the end of this season to have next season. I'm sad at the waste of it all, not the bike going away. I'll find something else I like. Maybe. I've been looking at transalps but there's something about them that just doesn't appeal to me all that much for some reason.
what stops someone from just tipping your bike over when you leave it in a parking lot?
>>28672916Common decency
did a thing, vacuum sealed a voltage rectifier so i can chuck it in the fender bag, i hate the water cooled antichrist
Gave myself the ole spicy exhaust
>>28672914Case in point. It's even got less miles, has the adventure sized fuel tank, and the shaped bmw panneirs for less than the insurance payout. I might limp over to check this out in a few days.>tfw couldn't go back to a bike without heated grips, cruise control, and electronically adjustable preload.
>>28672916Nothing. In fact I've seen this happen in a european city that is considered safe, one guy in a group came to a bike and tossed it. Coincidentally a police car was going down the street, they got the guys like 100m later. They were just some drunk idiots.
>>28672916being white
>>28672929Now I know that's a made up story
>>28672914o if you signed it over then the deal is done, i retract what i said. if you've signed the title over and haven't been paid while they "process your claim", you should file the insurance commission complaint. if a dealership signed the title for a bike over to you, they wouldn't give you a few days/weeks processing time before they expect paymentcan't go wrong with a honda, if you don't like the transalp get an africa twin, nt1100, fury or gwing
>>28672924hate it when that happens>>28672922SMART
>gets screwed by Bimmer Pricing, can't keep his bike>immediately buys another bimmerit's an abusive relationship
>>28672933The story sounds ridiculous and was ridiculous. But usually it's the fakes ones that are most polished.
Getting back into riding after 4 months of repairs made me realize. I have forgotten the muscle memory to slowly release the clutch. I stalled going up hill and ive been jerky going through gears. Also rolling on throttle too soon upshifting. Well I'll just keep riding to work to remember.
>>28672924Nah i got the spicy crank case.
>>28672946It's a retard thing, you wouldn't understand.
>>28672930even the blackest gorilla nigger doesn't go around randomly tipping bikes over, you have to be legitimately maladjusted to just do it
28672946the ktm390adv tranny and the reasonably priced product for a 1st worlder with a job
>>28672961Can you decouple the 390 from trannyism? it's a perfectly decent bike, especially when you can get a prior year model for like $5k.
But seriously I am going to cook the fuck out of the clutch if I don't get my muscle memory back.And the bully 2 glove STILL DIG INTO MY FUCKING KNUCKLES GOD DAMN IT.>>28672830>Gfg>Get raped by tdollBut that is the best part...
>>28672954>I stalled going up hill125?
Is it stupid to buy a bike this time of the year?The prices are better but I will barely use it for 3 or 4 months due to weather
>>28672916The same thing that stops someone from keying cars randomly, puncturing tires, or taking a pocket knife to brake lines on a bike. Absolutely nothing.
>>28672979I've always purchased bikes after the first night frost in late october/november when used, and when new previous model years early in feb/march. It all depends on how much the discount is worth it to you and whether you're financing and have a place to store the bike. Sometimes even a heated storage unit for the four months can be $300-$400 which could still be ahead overall.>>28672916I've heard of it happening, but the one time I saw a bike get knocked over it was by a lady backing into it with her car and driving off. It seemed malicious but could've just been retardation.
>>28672977286cc, rebel needed new tires and was wrecked with insurance dealing with it so I wasn't riding for about 4-5 months. I feel more retarded than when I was completely new because now I'm harder on the throttle, lean, and I keep doing shit from memory that i lost the muscle memory for. Not only am I applying too much throttlw when setting up a downshift but im using throttlw upshifting and downshifting when I shouldn't. I don't need to be on the throttle upshifting, but when I'm not paying attention I keep doing it now.
>>28672979Not really. You will have a whole month dealing with getting paperwork and title as well as time to do short trips to get comfortable for riding season.
>>28672989>a whole month dealing with paperworknigga you walk out of the dealership with that shit in non shitholes
>>28672989>month of paperworkwhat. you can get a paper tag and just keep it with you or figure out a way to put on the back. Insurance is just a phone call with a credit card. I don't know what other paperwork you need unless you don't have an endorsement.
>>28672979between now and march is actually the best time to buy >nowpeople coming to the end of the season looking to shift their bikes because they want a change, or are quitting>after xmas desperate people that need a quick cash-in (youre being ethical by saving them from debt)>after blue monday (3rd monday of Jan)(the least ethical, but best deals) loads of people kill themselves, and their family sells off their shit, they dont know how much much its worth>marchstart of the new season, people realise they actually want a new bike, so sell their old onethe only problem is getting the bike home, if you travel a distance for it, dont have a trailer and the weather is turbodogturd in your country i.e. uncleared snow or sideways rain
>>28672985I've had to run out in nickel sized hail with nothing but a plastic bowl on my head to get a car in a garage before. Does this hurt in full riding gear?
>>28672989>month dealing with getting paperworkwhat kind of 3rd world, red tape, prohibitive bureaucratic shithole do you live in?you look the dealer dead in the eye, sit on the bike, shake his hand, and ride off within 15mins, even buying brand new (like an idiot)a V5C can be done electronically in like 5mins
>>28673000blessed digits of fiscally responsible motorcycling.
>>28673003>hail at 60mphwhat do you think?most gear only really covers shoulders/elbows/outside hips/knees, and back if your lucky
>>28673003Yes. hail seeks nuts and pieces where the armor is thin. Left paintball type welts, and the adams apple is not immune. it's the one type of weather I hope to never get caught out in ever again.
>>28673009I meant once you'd pulled over and had to sit the storm out. Fuck riding through that shit.
>>28672821>>28672870Never buying a BMW
>>28673012>leaving baiku uncovered overnight/dbt/ why don't you own a cover?
>>28673013>Fuck riding through that shit.It was a tornado and it was coming our way. My options were to ride away, or get abducted by the lady in a minivan that kept insisting I get inside.>>28673018because hotel.
>>28673013sometimes you dont have time to pull over, youre in the middle of a motorway doing 70 and the shit hits the fan and theres not another services for 4 miles
>>28672996>>28673004>>28672998Maybe this is why ride now is considered kinda shit. It took a month for them to get me everything so i was riding with an expired paper tag that entire time.
>>28673019>or get abducted by the lady in a minivan that kept insisting I get inside.
>>28673018I used to use a cover but stopped because it seemed to just trap moisture and condensation within the cover to rust the bike. It was a Yamaha branded cover too. I just leave the bike in the shade now under a tree to protect from UV damage. Not worried about rain anymore since it just cleans the bike. Sometimes I have to take rust cleaner to some bolts to clean off surface rust other than that the bike looks mint no different than some garage queen.
>>28673021>Maybe this is why ride now is considered kinda shit.Ride now around here is that + salesmen who try to upsell but then want to drag you through massive financing pits + 2K Dealer "service charge" + tip
>>28673021>ride nowat a cursory glance, sounds like yankee version of SuperBike Factoryyeah i'd avoid places like that, national "salesroom" where they just ship the bikes around to get upsell people who arent willing to drive more than 30mins to look at their dream toytry to find private sellers, shits always much, MUCH easier because bikers know bikers and wont try to scam you. salemen mostly dont ride and just want commission.
>>28673027I only trust the random parts guy at mine because he kept me from the salesman convincing me to start on a beat up w800.
>>28673026Would some kind of moisture absorbing box under the cover help? Asking as someone who will probably have to keep a bike under a cover outside soon.
>>28673034The service guys in the back are typically pretty cool, if not overworked because they are the only cool ones at the stealershipThe guys up front can burn in hell
>>28672967>it's a perfectly decent bike, especially when you can get a prior year model for like $5kKTM 390's in general are turbo underpriced compared to nipshit, literally buy 2 used rc390 for the same price as a used ninja 400. You can buy a BRAND NEW rc390 for 5k Canadian pesos, its crazy.
>>28673024White people in the midwest are unusually kind to the point it often makes me uncomfortable.She pulled up next to me and the bike and kept yelling at me to get inside. I politely declined and chose to ride away nearly eating it on the nearby roundabout.
>>28673038Ah, i see my msf coach talk to those guys when i go there for various dumb shit I don't have tools for. I think my msf coach regrets passing me. Its fair lmao. He saw me, saw me the day I picked it up after months in repair and asked me "are you sure you should be riding" when he was showing off his new gs to one of the shop guys.
>>28673044lmaoHe must have thought you were doing this to impress one of your buddies or because you wanted to go really, really fast on the road.
>>28673043>jockey shifter>fishtails>danish dont think I've ever seen a more pretentious bike
>>28673047I assume it is more because I went through the course on a grom and terrified people by leaning on every turn, i didn't even sit up right and it made the right hand turn at stop impossible but everything else I could do. But I own a rebel 300, this cannot lean and is absolutely the wrong bike but after my crash leaning in the rain I'm a bit scared to lean now.
>>28673050>1946>inline four>shaft driveiirc it also had a foot clutch. Really nice gentleman to talk to.
>>28673057yeah jockey shifters are foot clutch
>>28672843I rode for 25 years before I got a motorcycle endorsement. Even showed my DL to cops a few times when stopped for various reasons. As long as you're not doing retarded shit you're probably going to be fine.
>>28672897Get well soon senpai.
>>28672927Anon, I'd just jump on that bike for that price.
How's this faggot always online wtf?
>>28673036It might it's worth trying I guess since you can just get a cover on Amazon and return it if it's shit easily.
>>28673204He has gone beyond the human form. Legend.
Comfy times were had on my XR150L last night on my longest trip yet. Had 250 miles ahead of me to visit my cousin and stopped halfway through for a break, rode into the woods and idled the bike to run my headlights and USB port to charge my phone and browse this general while sitting on it while eating goldfish I had in the rear box. Used the engine to heat my hands. The way the bike isn't comfy for that purpose as it's designed for 35mph backroads and dirt trails makes it more comfy. It's not much but it gets you there.
>>28673189I'd jump if I could. I don't think he'd be too happy to let me test ride if I slowly shuffle up his driveway with a walking cane shaking a bottle of oxy.>>28673036Some covers have vents in them that regulate moisture to basically be the same as ambient.In hot sun I've even noticed a slight breeze coming out of these vents.
>>28673220>>28673036forgot pic of said vent. Fuck webp.
I had to ride 30km to my mechanic with no electrics, including no instrument panel, indicators or brake lights, because one fuse blew. Thankfully the engine was still running. Thanx a lot Yamaha.
>>28673302That's not Yahaha's problem, it's a wrenchlet problem
Finished the ultrasonic cleaning of the injectors and got it all back together. Going to test ride tomorrow. I doubt it will fix the sub 8000rpm touchy throttle issue but at least I know the injectors are clean now.I do think maybe they were a little clogged or sticking because the ecu has been tuned by two wheel dyno works, and three of the plugs looked like it was running slightly lean. One plug looked perfect. However, that could have been from the valves being out of spec before I did the adjustment.I did however find out that there is in fact a center sync screw for the throttle bodies to sync the two banks together. Found the procedure and pictures in the service manual. Never could get the vacuum sync quite right. Numbers were jumping around and one side has screws all the way out, other side all the way in. So I'm going to back them all the way out and start from zero and do it the way the manual says now that I have that, instead of just pulling shit from decade old forum posts. Kek.One thing at a time though. Need to see if the injector cleaning did anything.
>>28673216Why isn't anyone else admiring how comfy this is? I'm NTA but I want to do this now on my Grom.
>>28673318From today I'm carrying spare fuses in case this happens again so I can pull over and fix it right away but I still think this is poor engineering.
