>The applications, all filed in the European Union, cover five possible new models. The smallest is the “RW125,” followed by the “RW155,” “RW250,” “RW350,” and finally the “RW700.”>But what does RW mean? That’s still a mystery, but one that we can make some logical guesses about. The “R” in the name points toward road or race-replica styling—we can be certain these aren’t going to be Ténéré-style adventure bikes, and the trademark applications come not long after Yamaha also filed paperwork for the names “RZ250″ and “RZ350″ in Japan. RZ was previously used on models including the RZ350 and RZ500 two-strokes, which were marketed in Europe as RD models. So could the RW machines be retro-styled sport machines harking back to those two-strokes?

>>28718537Calling it right here right now.Ducati will implement subscriptions. Fuck it, I'll go out on a limb and say they'll pull a Ferrari where you buy AND rent something that won't even be street legal so you gotta pay them to wheel it to a track for you.
>>28718514Why would Yamaha need another adv bike?
>>28718514thats a sexy fucking bike
>>28718546Gotta pay $50/mo to get the rear 2 cylinders of your Panigale to wake up.
I desperately want to do a trip again, maybe in 6 months.
>>28718546they should just do timeshares through dealerships. $5k, you get a 1/30th share of the ultimate hyperbikeshoot they're already pretty affordable. get you a brand new panigale for $300/month on a 5 year loan.
>>28718546>Ducati will implement subscriptions.Same way CFMOTO put a subscription for all their bikes after they promised free life support? Or without breaking any promises you think?

Can someone from Japan explain this gesture and what's on her wristband?
>>28718596Imagine ploughing that stanky ass after 8 hours on the road.

>>2871860666cc more+quickshifter?
>>28718608>where's kawasaki on this list?There's no adventure Kawasaki motorcycles?
>>28718613Maybe, but I was led to believe the new Transalp is basically an asthmatic pig without the airbox mod + exhaust slip-on + ECU tuning.once you do that it's like 25% more powerful. So this beating everything else stock seems off somehow, unless it's just THAT good of a bike
>this headlight on a street triple with a high fender and a windscreen a la himalayanThoughts?
>>28718614versys?
>>28718597>this gesture711>her wristband711711 seems to be their race number
>>28718614But anon, if the XR650 is there, and the DR650 is there, where is...
>>28718616stock Tenny rider was also heavy af
>>28718617Seems sick but are you sure the bike has space for that kind of headlight?
>>28718608>what the fuck howDR650 God machine that's why.Also, that's just the stock DR. A few simple mods to undo the emissions regulation dogshit would have that DR at the top of the list easy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1F4vzMp1ps
>>28718619I mean.. they call it an adventure motorcycle, but what parts of Versys correspond are actually adventure?
>>28718623Not sold in EU where the guy lives..
>>28718627I mean the one that's on it in the pic. Making a smallish front fender out of carbon myself wouldn't take too much doing, but the windscreen itself would have to be repurposed from something I'm sure. I think it would be a really nice look for this bike
>>28718634Oh I didn't know it wasn't sold in the EUThey made a new ECU just for it, so why isn't it sold there? Can't pass Euro 5 even with that?
>>28718622Lmao, I thought it was something in Japanese
>>28718639Kek, moonrune language issues
>>28718638I don't know anon, if they did and it was cheap I'd buy it as a first bike
>>28718627>>28718617The company that makes the headlight also has a flyscreen that goes with it. It might work on it's own but seems a tad small for the look. The fender can be visualized pretty easily in this pic, remove the side strakes and move it up to the bottom beam of the triple clamp

DOWN GIRL, DOWN!
>>28718695Was this a drag race? I'll be honest I can't imagine a more dreadfully boring kind of racing
>>28718703post bike
>>28718666Pretty much. I think you need to do some things with groups before hopping on a track, though.But yeah, a kid can buy the fastest death missile right after getting his loicense.
>>28718703I get to go brrr and not worry about losing my license, also watch everyone else racing. Probably about 20 bikes and 100-150 cars enjoying a friday evening.
>>28718710How much does a track run cost? Nearest to me goes for 40 Euro per one circuit, I just need a comparison because I'm going crazy with those prices.
>>28718695Was that your first time ever trying to accelerate quickly?
>>28718708Ok
His first motorcycle
>>28718718I hope he doesn't have to figure out how big and heavy that thing really is the hard way.
>>28718714Jeez that's a huge event. They do them down the street from me at the local road course, the straight is plenty long enough for it. I watch the normal races there from time to time
>>28718718>>28718721He'll ride it 600 miles total, realize he doesn't like riding and it will sit in his garage for 3 years until he sells it with less than 3k miles on the clock
>eyeing new KLR with all the good stuff on it >It gets sniped right out from under mefugggggshould I go all-in for a tenny?
>>28718728I would. Do you really want to take it off road?
>>28718717Aye, offroad is definitely a lot more riding lol.
>>28718730honestly 50/50 at the moment. I'm more someone who wants something for the street that can double as something for off-road if I want to go on big BDR adventures in the future.Right now I have a little CRF300 and it's amazing but it's still not something I would take on an 8 hour interstate journey. I don't like taking it on the interstate at all because I pin it at 70-75.
>>28718732I love that kind of dirt. The pine forest leaf litter on top makes it nice and cushy but it still gives plenty of traction when it starts to dig in
>>28718735You will probably appreciate the tenny more, then. Not that the klr isn't capable of that, but they're pretty uninspiring to ride and not particularly capable off road. Just serviceable. If you can afford it, the tenny is just a blast
>>28718741Unfortunately it's sort of all we get in my area unless there's a private open track but that's like once a year.It's ironsand too, so it's pretty dense even though it's really soft on top so really washy but you're never lacking really.
>>28718724That or he is going to yeet into a brickwall or lowslide and layerdown into more plebbitors like bowling pinheadsSad, many such plebbitorsWho knows, maybe he will become a legend and tour all of south america>>28718728Lucky you, you mightve ended up like me with the crf, because i was basically your nemisis with the klrWe are doing you a favour us guysWe are buying the melons off the production line so you dont have to suffer the weight of its consequences after the factTrust me, his klr is gon asploded 15 minutes from home base after 15,xxx kms on the odo
>>28718744Thanks anon, I'll give the stealership a call up later and see if I can come check one out.
>>28718770>Trust me, his klr is gon asploded 15 minutes from home base after 15,xxx kms on the odoUh oh, that happen to you?
Can’t decide between the DRZ or KLX 300 as a forever bike. I’m going insane with indecision.

>>28718911Nice milk crate. Really ties the bike together.
>>28718869>>28718911Where do people get milk cartons?
>>28718938Crates not cartons. I'm a stupid fuck.
>>28718940Idk, my dad found it for me. You can get fancy ones off Amazon though that fold down when you're not using it
>>28718938>>28718940Why at the milk crate store right outside of the milk crate factory where the obly milking that goes on is you of your finances because youre a nocrate
>>28718938You steal them from your local grocery store.
>>28718938When you're out shopping keep an eye out for them. They won't give you one if you ask but if one is left outside and goes missing no-one cares, don't be a dork that buys one.

>>28718819Lots of off-road mostly trails: klxOtherwise drz
>tfw I stop it smells like a 2smokeredo de engineadd it to the list
>>28718716No.The TL1000S/TL1000R has a really stupid 'slipper clutch' design, which is more accurately a back-torque limiting clutch.Cam lobes decrease pressure on the clutch pack when torque is fed to it from the rear wheel allowing slippage of the clutch and limiting skidding/chattering on heavy downshifts.Unfortunately, this means that even in a lever-fully-out scenario, the clutch pack is not actually under full clutch spring compression, so as you release the clutch this cam puts more pressure on the clutch plates proportional to the load from the engine at a given lever position, increasing the pressure to stop slipping under acceleration.Quite a few TLS/R owners actually welded these cams to kill this effect at the expense of having to be more careful with downshifting.
>>28718964Don't come back without talking to your lawyer. No more (you)s for you.
>>28718990>For closed course competition onlyWell, everyone else is certainly driving like they're against the clock...
>>28719006I wasn't just talking about your shitty clutch work homie. Also stop blaming the slipper clutch, get good
>>28719069
>>28718819If NA or AUS, Drz. Life's too short and roads too long to have a dual sport that can't reach 80.
KLR bro questionfor 2K, I can buy an older 2008 KLR that's been well taken care of, it has 16K miles on it and apparently burns no oil (his word, idk if it's true)if I spend like 5K extra I could get a brand new gen 3 KLR with like 6 miles on it. considering it's a KLR, is it even worth thinking about? if I'm spending extra money, is it better to just get a better bike at that point?
does anyone wanna hear me say something funny

>>28719145are you telling me it's AI?
>>28718819Its a DRZ. How is that even a question? But if the KLX is like $1000 or $2000 cheaper, then I'd consider KLX, but for me desirability wise, its always DRZ.
>>28719121This is why I want a DRZ400SM. The new one. I just love it bros. I want one.

>>28718848Gut instinct points to yellow bike, for sure.>>28718997It’s going to be a daily, I know DRZ is top heavy but obviously more powerful, and KLX feels for like a dirt bike for technical mastery.>>28719090AUS. Blessed with the E model. New KLX with Enduro suspension and ground clearance is out. It really is power vs. handling, out of the box. Probably gunna go yellow.>>28719163KLX is in fact, $2000 cheaper.>>28719174Nah, it really boils down to these 2 for the kind of daily I would want. Yamaha coming out with WR125R (?) in the states. Nothing new in Australia.Thanks for all your input guys, probably going DRZe and install a fan later.

>>28719215>i want a gold wing so bad but i NEVER want to pay gold wing pricesYou are lying to yourself.
>>28719221but i don't live there, nor do I have a reddit account[spoiler]there was one about an hour away that I tried so hard to get that the owner basically never responded to. I think he put it on the list of craig and just forgot about it.[/spoiler]
>>28719221that one probably has 100k or 200k miles on it, so I wouldn't buy it myself. I'd go for a cleaner more recent goldwing. I think where the goldwing hits its peak is the gl1500, gl1800 has a lot more bloat but is fuel injected so they're both good.
>>28719214>For example, a 1985 RZ350 with a weight of around 162 kg (357 lbs) and a power output of 52 hp would have a power-to-weight ratio of approximately 3.1 kg/hp>The Yamaha R7 has a power-to-weight ratio of approximately 0.398 kg/hp. This is calculated by dividing its wet weight of 188 kg by its power output of about 73.4 hp, resulting in a ratio of 188/73.4hp approximately 2.56 kg/hpThe lower the number the better.2.56 is lower than 3.1You lost.
That ain't working
>>28719256Based Yamaha evolution.
>>28719256>comparing an 80s bike against a bike 30 years more modern>has near kg/hp and still weighs like 50lbs less2smoke too op, riding is more than power to weight ratio and horsepower, of course a fucking bike 30 years into the future would obliterate it when it has much better brakes, suspension, and just importantly traction, but this is 4ch, benchracing is fun.
>>28719270I'll also leave this, the RD was like 60s and 70s tech really, basically comparing a bike with half a century worth of upgrades

>>28719298Grey imports are a thing. Had plenty here in NZ at the time.
>>28719287What if anon who said he wants a bike with longer seat wants it only because he has the same king sized bunda
>>28719300What are the taxes like in your country? In some countries you pay 5k for the bike itself and 10k more as taxes.
>>28719213holy sexo>>28719215>>28719221>>28719226you just gotta spend time looking, and look goodthe people that buy goldbergs generally look after them really well, even if you get one with 50k on the clock, they'll be good to 300
>>28719303Usually just GST on importation of 15% + the client also pays 15%. We aren't like India with massive taxes on imported as a built-up motorbike since we have no manufacturing industry here to compete.
>>28719310>since we have no manufacturing industry here to competeSame as the US yet the import taxes are huge.
>>28719316Don't you guys bail out automotive goliaths every other term?
>>28719310A 2021 GSXR1000 with 8k miles costs 30k USD in russia. As an alternative you can buy a fucking Ural for 24k, and it's a 70 years old tech with 40hp.It's 7k more expensive than a base model R 12 nineT costs in states.

>>28718502Hello /dbt/ I come to you in in a time of great needLooking at getting either a trackslut (2012 Yamaha R1 or 2014 Honda CBR1000), or an adv/tourer (2016 Multistrada or 2012 BMW F800GS) to do a cannonballrun-esque race across a somewhat long country that is home to a people I don't like very much.If I go for the one of the tourers I would plan on tuning my 2005 Thruxton to make it fast enough to go on the local F1 track.>>28719213Saudis really like these for some reason

Why germans keep buying dirt bikes if you are only allowed to ride it offroad either on your private property or on someone else's private property with a written permission? It's not like they are gonna break the law and ride where it's not allowed, right?
>>28719395Maybe they take them to eastern europe or something. I'm pretty sure they can ride offroad there
>>28719395>Why germans keep buying dirt bikes if you are only allowed to ride it offroad either on your private property or on someone else's private property with a written permission?SuMos are based but also it's only illegal in their country, ride 1+ hour and you can do all the off-roading you want.
I had no idea how good riding was for your neck until I took time off. After commuting only on bikes for nearly 10 years I took a couple months off work and man do I feel the wind now. Went for a 4 hour ride for some camping and my neck was killing me by the end. Maybe windshields do have a purpose.
>>28719182If you ride it you will understand why, it's a crazy bike>>28719273>I'll also leave this, the RD was like 60s and 70s tech really,The RD YPVS had an advanced tech for the time derived from racing bikes, it was a perimeter frame, watercooled and exhaust valves (YPVS), 3 disc brakes and air damping in the forks. 1983. >>28719287>His point was it's getting worse, but it's not.It is though, there is no soul in these new bug bikes even if they are more powerful
>>28719408get a neck brace
>>28719414Or I will just get back on the grind when my leave runs out after this week.
>>28719415May I suggest doing neck stretches and being aware of your posture? old-person neck slump is a serious concern for people who have early life neck pains
>>28719422Its mostly fine, I spend a bit too much time checking out my posture on my shadow. Just buffeting that gets me. Thinking of picking up race drivers neck workouts if I ever take a long break off work again.
>>28719413>If you ride it you will understand whyThen sell it to me.

>>28719433this.
>>28719428>Then sell it to me.NO!
can someone tell me what bike to get I have decision paralysis im stuck between the tw200, dr650, klx300 and the crf300l
>>28719333HOW MANY DBTS ARE LIK YOU???
>>28719451What do you want to do with it?
>>28719458short trips around town and fucking around in the woods
>>28719467I'd say the klx or crf, leaning toward the crf personally. The kawi's are fine but they're very cheaply made. The hondas are a better build quality, a little costlier, but last longer. For bopping around town and the woods, a 300 is perfect
>>28719452Only 5% of Shoomer's lore has been explored and it's only getting bigger.
>>28719492Well, part of the reason was going to attempt to film TWIST OF THE WRIST 3: ABANDONED BUT NOT FORGOTTEN ON MY MOTORCYCLE- WAIT ITS WINTER was also to explore the other 10% beyond what is normally taken for grantedPlus it was a nonfictional love story between a noob learning how to ride and the friends we met along the way of the KAPLAN AMERICAS COAST TO COAST NEW VEGAS TENDIE RUNthe trauma kits, parole officers, and all that stuff- all of it was supposed to educate new dewbwetees and show them the way of the wristBut idk if ill ever manage to pull of a superburgermeet and travel coast to coast from kaplan americas shop as the begin and las vegas as the final destination where we all get a big autism group photo and call each other fedsI swear it was gonna be a real good time once we finally pinned a date to it, and we would all film it amateur hour like some sort of mid 90s skateboard jackass kino and btfo all zoomlettes with our superior tastes in filmographyBut whats dead never dies, and im a real life mc 1%er LONE WOLF with no club and no lawyer now, the timeline shifted too hard into dantes inferno of globohomo jannoids and sneesing limits that i might just never be able to make my directors cut special exclusive edition dreams come trueIm sorry george lucas, keith code, and kaplan america- i have failes all the bakuons
Underrated as fuck
Where do yall usually ride?I've been riding for a year now and so far it's just for commuting and the occasional weekend lunch. I'm trying to think of places to go or things to do that aren't food or work related.
>>28719553If I'm not going anywhere I like to ride through the mountains and smaller, scenic highways
>>28719553This was one of my favorite detours coming back from being stranded in kelowna this summerWould reccommend, bring a friend or two just incase, and warch for retarded cagers think theyre dirtbikesAlso dont fall off the side of the mountain
>>28719433Oh man what a story >a 350cc Yamaha twin against 750cc triples and fours in the 1972 Daytona 200>His TR3 had the smallest displacement for a winner in event history,>In 1969 Yvon Duhamel riding a Yamaha TD3 rode a lap on the speedway oval (which at the time was used for qualifying) to become the first rider to lap the oval on a motorcycle in under one minute (average speed over 150 mph).[11] Duhamel's pole position on the tiny 350cc Yamaha motorcycle against the larger 750cc four-strokes marked the beginning of the two-stroke era in AMA road racing competitions.[11] Don Emde became the first competitor to win the Daytona 200 on a two stroke motorcycle when he won the 1972 event riding a Yamaha TR3.[12] His victory marked the beginning of thirteen consecutive Yamaha victories at the Daytona 200 including nine consecutive victories by the dominant Yamaha TZ750.[13]GIANT SLAYER

i love my r1 bros
>>28719609I'm thinking it's just a meme at this point
>>28719610Bitch how much did you pay for one ride on the circuit?
>>28719609>>28719612My last job i worked i met a filipeno guy on the wellhead service crew and he also lived in edmontonHe said he got a s1000rr as his first bikeHe also rides around sithout a license for it lmaoSadly i did not exchange contact info
>>2871961440 eur for 20 minutes
>>28719619Alright, thanks. It actually checks out for me, I still think it's way too expensive and will just ballern on the autobahn for free instead.
>>28719618The sad part is these people barely ride because of their terrible decision making skills. At least it floods the used market with good deals
>>28719619I mean that doesnt seem too bad compared to more conventional gokarting lets sayWere there discounts for larger timeslots or just flate rate per hour
>>28719610Sir, I think that's AI
>>28719621its way cooler than riding in straight line, but the 40 eur is just the beginning of track costs.tires, fuel, transportation, oil, wear and tear.A solid track day on a 600/1000 will run you about thousand bucks if youre semi-serious
>>28719625dont disrespecc my AI r1

>>28719624>I mean that doesnt seem too bad compared to more conventional gokartingNo it's ridiculously expensive. Renting girls pussy legally is about 50 euro per 30 mins depending on a woman, and it's just a tarmac track lmao.
>>28719628I wanted to start open wheel racing because there was a very active league in my area, but the buy in costs alone are astronomical. And the annual cost even more so. It's really a hobby for the wealthy
>>28719633Yamaha is so much better at archiving and website building compared to the other 3.
>>28719628The kart track I go to is well known for being a great one and it's on the expensive side at 41 dollars per 13ish minute heat. I'd go more often but dam
>>28719638W-where's his helmet...
>>28719644it was a diffrent time
>>28719636>It's really a hobby for the wealthyunfortunately yes, but with decent job you can still afford to go at least few times a month>>28719640yeah 40 bucks is really nothing compared to the costs of mobbin your motorcycle on the track ;_;
>>28719634>paying for a prostituteVery disrespectfulSunk cost fallacy for getting your dingus wetNo woman will ever go as fast as an r1And no r1 will ever love you and give you mini-shoomer babies that you can show how to ride and lecture on the folly of becoming a streetwalker>>28719644Its holding the fish he just caught until he is ready to eatFilling a helmet full of water does two things, keeps fish warm and once foam is soak keeps head cool; amazing helmet technologyBot like nowadays where helmets expire every 5 years and you need a wifi subscription for fish protocols

Apparently there is a Tracer 9 GT near me for sale for 12K. I've heard this is a very, very good deal. I don't know anything about the tracer series. Other than the 9 uses the CP3 and is the ultimate dad bike. Should I take it? I'd like a touring bike but idk if that's the kind of thing I need.
>>28719711Yes.
>>28719713Dang, is it that good? I know it's the advdad brother to the MT-09 but not much else
>>28719721It is a great bike if everything is ok with it, maybe the seller wants a new Y-AMT version or maybe he's too scared of it IDK. No reasons not get it
>>28719727Apparently he was 85 and hit the point of selling his motorcycles. The stealership has it used, 2K miles. Zero scuffs, a few scrapes on the baggies where it was put in a garage and not used for a while, heard it run. I'm looking for something touring but also something that can do a little bit of dirt, not much, not single-track, but gravel and occasional fire road. Someone said 'get a tenny' but then this came up.
The pain of having a beautiful day to ride, but also having responsibilities that take up said day.Such is life.
>>28719665i rode for 700km in the rain with them in a single day and they worked flawlessly,very secure even at highway speed. 10/10 would use them again

I smoke cigarettes because I'm not afraid to die. I stare death in the face every day when I ride my motorcycle so a little bit of cancer isn't going to frighten me. FUCK CANCER.

>>28719964Was it good? Worth it? Any good deals on gear?
>>28719998Its good to sit on all the new bikes and see the demos etc, the gear is all rip off though.
>>28719915A good pic, fine bike. Alittle heavy for the woods but still works just fine
>>28719711I have a 22 and I like it. It's plenty fast up to 120mph. With the suspension In sport mode I can drag the pegs on back roads no problem. I've been told it's the most sporty out of the middle weight sport tortures, which checks out considering its got the MT09/YZF-R9 engine. It gets me home in the rain when I feel like crap or I just worked out at the gym.Probably the only real complaints I had are seat and windscreen, the first things I replaced. Not everyone can get past the looks, I think it looks good from most angles. Pic related is probably its worst angle in the looks department. I actually think all tall sport tortures look kinda funny anyway.I've contemplated stepping up to a S1000XR but I have trouble justifying it. The Tracer is a bike that's rally easy to live with and dose everything well. Its a great "one bike garage" type of bike if that helps.
how do people get their front wheel up so easily? i can only pop it up in first gear but some people (even on eg. klr650s) look like they can just lift it up no matter how fast they're going
>>28720028Are you clutching up? Shifting weight back?
Test rode a new Indian 101 Scout today, holy shit that motor actually rips. For the price, the bike overall isn't that appealing but Indian might have been onto something with that new SpeedPlus engine.
>>28720028Beachbros thread?
>>28720039
>>28720037no i jam the front and use the rebound of the spring while opening the throttlei think i should practise moving my body more, i think i might be leaning forward in anticipation now i think about it
>>28720011That's a glowing review if I've seen one. I'm on the fence about a lightweight ADV and a middleweight ADV and then this thing fell into my lap and I'm on the fence about pulling teh trigger on it. I don't have much experience with sport tourers
>>28720028Follow this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=semBdJKhmPAdo the practice he recommends.
>>28720069If you are never going to go off road or at worst catch the rare gravel road a few times a year, sport-tourers are where it's at. Otherwise get a ADV.
>>28720028clutch is keyplus timing and shifting weight/loading suspension
>>28720109I've been practicing getting the front tire up on my 501 a lot but so far it doesn't seem like I can get it up high enough. I'm happy enough to be able to use it for clearing obstacles, but doing it confidently on demand is a must and I still need lots of practice I guess
>3 out of 5 aliexpress parts for my bike turnet out to be shit>2 were damagaed to a degree that the paint had come off>bores were done so shitty that screws didn't fit>nuts/bolts missing>steel rods for axle crash pads were too long so people had to cut them in order to fit themman if it wasnt so easy to just return their shit and get my money back id never order there again.its like nobody at aliexpress ever wonders if party xyz actually fits a certain bike or not, they just think anything that fits onto a cb500 will automatically fit every other honda with a cb in the name.
>>28720142It took me a lot of dedicated practice to get comfortable with balance point and rear brake (and a few loops).I’m still not super comfortable doing them standing.
>>28720028>>28720154>>28720142>>28720109I'd love being able to do a wheelie but I simply can't justify risking my bike doing it.Maybe when I'm better at riding or have a chance to try it on a small and more agile cross bike.
>>28720154Unrelated gonna take it to a private ohv/trail park tomorrow. It’s 25 minutes away and somehow only heard about it last night. Pretty excited as I just got new tires this week and wanna let em eat>posted from my iphone
>>28720160I hear you just save up and buy a cheapo bike if you want to practice. You can also learn the feel of balance point and brake control on a pedal bike. The skills won’t exactly transfer but you’ll have a huge head start
>>28718514>mustard, catsup and mayoim more of a tzatziki kinda guy
>>28720151You deserve everything that happens to you for buying chinkshit, wrenchlet
>>28718718i can telli dont know what it is but reddit has a way of making anyones "first thing" be the saddest thing ever.i just feel depression and cringelike a kid opening a "games cube" instead of a gamecube for christmas
>>28720205i hope he loves itgenuinelybut, i just see immense buyers remorse for him soon.
>>28718938go to a grocery store and ask if they have anyor maybe a cafei know when out early before cafes open up the milk trucks will drop 1-2 of these at their door so you could probably ask them if you can take it instead of them just chucking it out.but sometimes they get deliveries at the back so you could skulk around the back of cafes looking for some.also you can just buy them for $20 but it feels stupid to buy something that just gets tossed by the thousand every day all over the place.
>>28720202we're talking about a clutch cable cover, which is 2 pieces of stamped aluminium.only difference is that the UK brand import (china to uk to me) is twice as expensive as the direct import from china to me.unless my stamped metal parts and molded plastics get imbued with performance enhancing bonger magics by the ghost of HER MAJESTY herself if I re-import these items via the UK, i will always buy simple shit directly from the source in china.
>>28718911what about Mount Fuji?
>>28720205I dont get it, did he buy a fake BMW or something?I really can't tell but from the pic I'd guess its a normal bike? Am I retarded, what am I missing?
>>28719553you should go /out/but not like to a paid camp groundlike WAY OUT and do some proper bike camping
