I did a 50 mile ride yesterday and my cock went numb halfway through. I like to be aware of my penis at all times. I feel like less of a man if I can't feel it. What can I do about this?
i know these are gay af but i'd ride this thing to work everyday
I was gifted low aperture telephoto lens and now it makes taking these shallow focus shots so much easier to do. I’m having so much fun
How to check where was a Suzuki manufactured? I asked chatgpt obviously, but somehow I don't trust the answer.
>>28936377Why should I get one over an old motorcycle?I’m not gonna lie, I think I get the appeal.
>they dont make em like they uses toBrosI stumbled upon this manual by clymer publications for kawasaki servuce and rrpair of all 250-750cc tribbles from 1969-1976Talk about baste
>>28936494might be on the VIN plate on the bike, or google the VIN and go from thereidk about suzkui but hondas made in japan always start with J as the first letter in the VIN

He says it doesn’t start. Needs a new starter and battery.. do you think he’s tried push starting?
Anyone got anything good to watch on racing L twin engines? I've been checking out Troy Baliss interview footage and it's been pretty interesting.Not just mechanical stuff, but intricacies of racing with one of these versus a Inline engine.
>>28936507Forgot pic.
>>28936499>>28936505>>28936506The Kawasaki triples are some of the only nip bikes I wouldn't mind owning, seems pretty cool.Then again I'd probably just salvage the engine and cram it into my Izh
>>28936516I wouldnt mind making my vtwin boomer shoomer something like this or a sidecar gig alsoSuper smoke 3 stroke turbo smoke at those speeds sustained must be hell to rebuild all the time

>>28936519Roller bearings on the engine, transmission would take anything the engine could do. Rings every few thousand was reasonable if you consider a few thousand a year normal (cars were old if they got to 50k back then).Plenty bike if your country is a couple of hundred miles in any direction.
>>28936327widest most open pic i have.i think i might pull the plug on the airoh commander. do you guys prefer to have your bucket matching your gear/bike or you prefer wild unique graphics and don't care about matching colors?

Lift came in today. Finally rebuilding chain tension adjusters (they were messed up.) To do now is properly set preload, find the one piece of plastic I'm missing and maybe rebuild the front forks. >>28936499>>28936504fucking based. >>28936549good shot>>28936544Fucking kino shot, mate.

Everyone wants VFR, buys one and then does not ride it like at all. Looks like a pretty shite motorcycle if even some random bike gets more kms done on this thread alone.
>>28936576Cool bike, how do you like it?
>>28936580Thanks anon, I love motorcycles so much
>>28936638I got a viffer with 55k on the dash, sounds like you just like painting with a broad brush based off anecdotes rather than facts.

Description:>Fresh paint. New wiring. Total rebuilt engine full custom jobby come get it 5,000 oboThoughts? It does have a seat. This is just the best picture. I want a shovel, but this doesn’t seem like a bad price. I mean obo he’d be down for 3,500; right?
>buy replacement engine (feels goodman)>rad starts leaking from a crash that happened 1 year ago (feels badman)THE MOTORCYCLE DEMANDS MORE MONEY!
>>28936702idk bro it looks like a cool custom bike.. but its kind of some other guys project? idk how this chopper thing worksbut it does look cool bro
>>28936702>Fresh paint. New wiring. Total rebuilt engineso he spent all of that money building his "custom jobby" only to sell it when it's nearly complete? why would anybody do that?>lifted brotruckdon't trust this man.
>>28936735It is pretty cool, huh? I just wonder if I should wait for a shovelhead to pop up.
>>28936740Maybe I should wait on a shovel..
>>28936745maybe you should buy a real motorcycle instead
>>28936740>why would anybody do that?We bought a car off a retired guy who didn't have much love for driving, but really enjoyed tinkering. He'd get a shitter, fix it up, then sell it on regardless of potential profits or losses - there are some people who just like building stuff.
Wooo my zookie is the OP! I made it to Breanais today, that's as far down the West of Harris as you can get, super remote. Heading for Stornoway tomorrow
Don’t think I’m riding today so posting oldies. God damn do i miss the open road with no responsibilities. Think i gotta take a month off work next year and ride down the 101 again, all the way to sa Diego this time then back up through the desert in spring
>>28936759>there are some people who just like building stuffso why not complete the build? he'd get more money if the bike was complete.white men should build families.
Thoughts?
>>28936821do a wheelie so only one wheel gets wet
>>28936821that motorcycle has a rearview mirror, steering wheel, and an airbag..
>>28936821The correct way to act is to write a strongly worded letter to the local council and demand that they build better roads.
>>28936832Apparently they give zero fucks about motorcycles and simply slap a car GUI onto motorcycle questions.
>>28936821honestly i think i'd ride closer to the kerb to splash the pedestrians. fuck em.

>>28936772Rolling
Been riding my new street triple for a few days now and it's just such a nicer experience than my old 650 ninja, but it scares the hell out of me since it has so much more power on demand. I love the exhaust note the most though, easily my favorite part of the bike.
>>28936911Why spend money on biek when job give free biekThe fortnite guy is permanently larping as senile boomer so I have no idea why you're surprised he has exactly the matching bike.

>>28936377Good post, very cute
>>28936982Nice, friend.
i've got a wr250r and it's cool and all but it's kinda heavy and i wish it had a little more power for offroad shit, but man it is really nice to take it on streets and not be worried about getting popped by the cops like i would with a dirt bike. out in BLM land and camping and such.i'd like a real deal dirt bike but not being able to get a plate seems like it would bite you in the ass. is a ktm500 or a crf450rl going to offer what i'm looking for or am i still going to be hunting for more? my friends are all street bike people really, so it kinda sucks that i can't see the difference first hand.
I ride with Jesus.Jesus rides with me.
>17.5L tank>bars vaguely where god intendedWow with only 460,000 yen in accessories and an 8-12 month waiting period you can make this bike actually appealing.
>>28937014I don't think jesus would like soulless ai images
>>28937059God made everything. AI is God's creation.
>>28937064AI is the antichrist
>>28937064Wasn't there something in the bible or such about the devil being cast to isolation, but humans gave it a voice and AI was apparently that voice they gave to the devil?
>>28937071No you fucking schizo.
>>28937070AI helped my tune my carb. It's alright.
>>28937059I believe this is true. God gave us brains and natural talents. I think God would rather us use the abilities we were given to create something rather than “hey ai, make this thing.”>>28937071I believe you’re referring to Revelation 13:11-18 NIV11 Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. 12 It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. 13 And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. 14 Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666.
>>28936979do you really rev it that much?
>>28937113>I think God would rather us use the abilities we were given to create something rather than “hey ai, make this thing.”but we created ai, it did not spring forth from nothing, it is the product of human knowledge and understandingcomputers are made from the stuff of the earth and do not just magically appear.
>>28937076>>28937113It was the seal of solomon, so not in the bibble I guess?
>>28937120Wasn't the tower of babylon also built by man?
>>28937125No wait fuck, the tower of babel, not fucking babylon, gotta stop listening to jungle for today
>>28937120You don’t need to ragebait dude. You know what I mean. I have talents and abilities that you do not and vice versa. If I go to my friend and say “hey man, write a heartfelt letter to my mom/dad/whatever” it didn’t come from you, did it? “Hey man, write a heartfelt letter to _____. Be sure to say I love you, you’re really sweet, and be sure to include x, y, and z.” It still didn’t come from you no matter how many mental gymnastics you wanna jump through. >>28937123Idk. Maybe I don’t know what you’re referring to.
>>28937125that wasnt actually real dipshit
>>28937131It was. The Bible is real. Jesus is Lord. It’s all real. Always has been.
>>28937137Do you think a mother would rather have her child’s crayon drawing stick figures, or an image generated by a program trained on other people’s art?
>>28937131Neither was the holocaust or the moon landings
>>28937149would you prefer some random child's crayon drawing stick figures or a an image reminiscent other people's art?
>>28936911because they didn't fall for the litre bike meme.

chinking up my first baiku
>>28937207What bike? Admittedly I've been starting to stick a lot of chinkshit on my bike too lateöy, thinking about ordering a whole handlebar setup for 80 bucks, with cables, controls, risers and everything.
>>28937206You don't get it because you aren't a leader
>>28936944Ride a bike without a tachometer, that'll teach you real fast and if you can't hear engine rpm by tone then sorry you're tone deaf. Rev matching by tone makes the motorcycle become a musical instrument, the tachometer is a crutch

How hard would it be to repurpose this bag as a saddlebag for my Bonneville? I guess I'd need to make some kind of luggage rack to secure it to, no? I could just buy cheap saddlebags but I think this looks cooler.
>>28937394quick and dirty is to just bolt the side of an oil can to the backside of the bag for support then mount it to a fender or such from the strap loops with bolts.Proper way is to weld up a frame of some sort, preferably an L shaped one from steel rods that the bag mounts to.L shaped so it supports the bag when you put weight into it, so it's actually the frame carrying the weight and not the bag itself.

>>28937071>>28937076Mark of the beastThe beast that is and is not and yet isThe same beast rises up from the sea(nations)ErgoAi; being a culmination of all mans intellect into an open source and automated process, fits the bill when combined with a culture of globohomo, new age religion, and the rampant idolatry for the climate change and machine itselfPeople worship the planet and the idols generated by ai etc Yes, ai is thoroughly satanic and demonic influence. Its an acting substitute for God and many people's prompts are categorically divination and idol worship- or idol generation for that matter

Suzuky
>>28937137Yes, as it is nowBut we invent something like VL-JEPA and ai advances in the direction of consciousness more or less within an order of magnitude than it was previously beforeMaking an image of the beast that speaks blasphemies against God has already been majorly achieved, and many are already deluded into arbitrary worship of the beast and its image alreadyMany have claimed ai has becone their god, if not indirectly imposed as the selfsame alreadyConsequently, the mark of the beast is a financial singularity that prophesied to come about, and ai will surely regulate it among digital meatspace- since the actual mark will involve itself in tandem with other such technologies as the internet of bodies, biometrics, state surveillance, digital ids- and them being directly linked to a unique DNA-signatureThe funvaxx of the plandemic basically proved we have the technological precedent and only lack the infrastructure, but also proved how fucking stupid everyone was to line up for clotshots; of which there are adjuvants which are composed in sone instances of self assemblying nanotech and graphene nanoroutersBasically, the bodily hardware for the mark of the beast softwareAnd everyone has gaslit themselves into oblivions despite the multitude of kings of the earth conspiring to this one accord, multiple whistleblowers- and hitherto mind you, as well as open source publications and findings proving that these biotechbologies were injected en masse as a multifront bioweapon>the guy who wrote into law the convention of bioweapons/terrorism has advocated that those injections were the same category>the guy who invented the mRNA process also condemned these funvaxx claims of immunity>all the media propaganda and gaslighting>no, i will not forget how you fuckers locked me down, condemned me to death, made me near homeless and lose my job, and then cause normies to treat me like a societal leperIt was a foreshadowing for how the mark will be way worse

>>28936647Yeap, I like it a lot. It's my first bike, no scooter\moped\125cc anything experience from before, so engine's more than enough to get me in trouble. Also roads here in Norway where you can really go fast are extremely few and far in between so. Also corners and acceleration are the fun parts, not going fast in a straight line. :p
>>28936457so do that? its probably less expensive than your car. sell your cage and go full time open road, i know i don't regret that decision. i would rather do what i did, and ride a traditional motorcycle, but a three wheeler is still far and away superior to a cage. >>28936519on the other hand, at this point, be honest and buy a miata or other small roadster >>28936574Why? Would you rather it be sold by someone with a worse dealer network and technical support?

How do you guys square away the fact that you could become dead or permanently disabled every time you get on the road? I gave up riding around 6 months ago after my third crash, but I feel like I'm going to have to get another bike soon just because it's the only thing I really loved doing. Nice cars don't scratch the same itch. Not even flying does.
>>28937446Pembeltons and Morgan 3 wheelers are cool, a miata is not
>>28937445What kind of riding are you thinking you'll wind up doing? The Bonneville would be the easiest for a pretty girl to ride on the back of. And you get to be the little spoon.
>>28937450You sound like a bitch
>>28937445z900rs se
>>28937450I started worrying the moment I realized I stopped fearing dying
>>28937450There's an amount of crashes where I start thinking you might be the problem
which sound best to you?https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dZpIJXx0bQk
>>28937486is it bad if I think honda sound better than dugati?
>>28937496Little brother today started complaining that his suzuki gs500 or whatever the fuck that chink bike is was leaking into the ignition pickup from "somewhere".Told him it's most definitely whatever oil seal is on the pickup shaft, but he started going "nah it's probably the oil pressure switch", even thought he posted me a pic of the ignition pickup and you could clearly see that the oil seal was leaking, whereas the oil switch is threaded and thus won't leak.Then he started coping "well it probably needs oil in there anyway to lubricate the bearings".At that point I just figured that it was pointless to argue with a woman and told him it's probably leaking from the piston return spring shaft and cut the call.
>>28937453This is the plan. >>28937455What's the advantage of this over the W800?
>>28937507w800 is like buying real retro bikewhere with z900rs you get modern naked bike underneath with all the tech but it look retro on the outsidestuff like ridemode, IMU, ABS, traction control, Cruise control i mean if you think about T100/120 is basically like that toobut if you think OI MATE I LIVE IN LONDON I DONT NEED MAX SPEEDthen there are jeet bikes and maybe SR400 too as options but then again I thought you can get w800 and t100 during your A2?
>>28937450We can exist without risk, but living requires effort. Ride motorcycles.

>>28937554Oh, you're trolling. Gotcha
>>28937450You lack faith and it sounds like you are the problem. Probably had too fast a bike or still treated your bike like a car.

>>28937645It depends what you want out of it really. I don't think there's enough power for me to enjoy it on my local roads, it'd be flat out everywhere just about pulling along which isn't for me, but if I lived in a more built up area I think I'd love it.>>28937647I need to go get some more pictures, I can only keep posting the same ones over and over again. What's going on in the background there? Also how do you rate the Pan America? It's an odd looking thing but I fuck with it.
>>28937649Nah.
>>28937651Controlled burn. So far I love it. Taking it on a road trip tomorrow. So that should be fun. Only thing I dint love about it is the wonky ass bluetooth set up. But besides that its great
>>28937654Yeah mine has bluetooth too but to be honest I haven't really used it, it has the option to put Google Maps on the dash but I have to keep my phone unlocked to do it, and even then it's only Google maps. I'd rather just put it on the Quadlock and use whatever mapping thing I want, I don't listen to music when I ride either so it's kind of redundant.

>>28937450>you could become dead or permanently disabled every time you get on the road?Round here we call that stinkin thinkin, if thats what you think about when riding then stay off bikes and don't come back.
Told my coworkers I'm getting a motorcycle license and every single one of them separately told me how dangerous it is and how their friend of a friend crashed on a motorcycle.
>>28937450Do you live your life in a box?>third crash>Nice cars don't scratch the same itch. Not even flying does.Maybe a R3 is more your speed. Something slow. Like a Grom.
>>28937747>haha 'donorcycle', get it??
>>28937747I have a lot of friends of friends that knew a guy that crashed. Many such cases.
>>28937747I always just tell them my dad died in a crash and I don't care what they say
>hai guize, i'm going sky diving this weekend >HELL YEAH HAVE FUN>hai guize i'm getting a motorcycle this weekend>ZOMG YOU'RE GOING TO DIEwhy are karens like this?
i ordered my new helmet and weekend will be shit so i will have time to get it before i can do a proper ride.Anyone has any reccomendation for cheap but good goggles that are ok with glasses? i saw you need to look for OTG but what about some of the cheaper models like 100% ones? do i just have to look if they have triple foam so that they get a bit further?

>>28937780>see one almost reasonably priced used bikePeople are still selling used First gen R7's for over MSRP on marketplace for some unknown reason.
>>289374501. Skill issue2. You live more in 5 minutes than someone who doesn't ride in 50 years3. It's cheap as fuck compared to car shit4. You experience the real world unfiltered, being able to smell and see everything far better than a car5. Death is the ultimate orgasm, life is short death is long. Either way we're going to all meet the reaper 1 day so you might as well live a little before the ultimate end
>>28937747To that, I usually reply that their friends are idiots and I'm not an idiot, so I'll be fine.
>>28937207NEVER buying used.
>>28937792>People are still buying used First gen R7's for over MSRP on marketplace for some unknown reasonWhy are people like this? It's a good bike but man that's expensive
>>28937651What tires are you running? Like them?
>>28937469>>28937557>>28937561>>28937751>>28937793I've posted about this before, but my first two were in Okinawa in the rain on a clapped out 250. Wasn't even going that fast, but the roads are made of coral there and they turn into a slip and slide whenever it rains. The third one was a stupid mistake and entirely my fault though, I thought I was crossing a one-way street that was actually a two-way and only checked one side of the road, I pulled out in front of another motorcycle. I rode a LOT over the past several years, that 250 being my only vehicle for a year, and am pretty technically skilled. None of my crashes were from pushing my luck like counter-steering in a corner or trying to wheelie to impress my TingTong followers. I just know that it only takes one fuckup for things to go south.
>>28937907Can't say I've ridden in okinawa but I've ridden on ice in ohio for yearsand still haven't crashed
>>28937930Ohio is how you greet other riders in Okinawa
>fixed alignment>replaced broken swingarm chain tensioner (one side was messed up)>took off the boomer bra (I don’t know what else to call it - that weird leather gas tank wrap)Next I just need to fix the one cracked fairing and get the belly pan sorted.Wise ones of /dbt/, should I get graphics for this zzr600 Ninja? I was thinking purple 90s-accurate silver-dusted “Ninja” logos for the bellypan low cowls once I’ve either fixed them up or replaced them would be kino, but if I get kawi green graphics/decals it’ll look very asuka-pilled which I’m fine with.Oh I also have to clean off the windshield. It’s filthy and darkened
Replaced my brake lever :)

What's the consensus on aftermarket turn signals? Do you just buy cheap ones, or are there reputable companies that people like?

>>28937930Not only are a retard for riding on ice, but you also live in Ohio. God help you.
>>28937907Ok so your first two was due to island infrastructure that is well known so you can throw those out.Third one was just rider error of not knowing the area.
>>28937980lmao I think the guy you're thinking of ended up snagging a CBX1000 engine at auction. What a MANIAC.

We put my wife's candle collection in my shop for storage and the entire shop now smells like a candle store. I'm not even mad. It smells good. I'm just shocked that it could make such a large space smell like candles.
>>28938076No one cares, Gaylen.
>>28938089You care enough to respond :)

any of you use vans for hauling bikes? the idea seems so fucking sick to me, but i don't know if it's worth having an entire extra vehicle for just hauling shit around. i'd like to be able to bring my bike further out for camping in other states.
>>28937614CBR 125 pikachu edition!
>>28938094With enough candle power, we can rebuild the time machine pills.>>28938096Candle collecting (or hoarding) is a real thing apparently.>>28938100Kek, no. The internet did away with that business model for mlm. She just really likes candles.>>28938106It's boomers who want to take everything with them to the grave. They fucking ruin everything. I swear they will take western civilization with them if they can.
>>28938110You can move a bike in a Transit van. Doesn't have to be a fuck huge van.
>>28938110I'm planning on getting a covered trailer with a drop ramp and just pull it with my truck. I figure it can double as a redneck camper.
>>28938119I've moved 3 in a rental mercedes minibus. The seats had to go back in obviously.
>>28938120that's sort of the exact predicament i'm in. i feel like a trailer is smarter financially, just from an upkeep perspective. but towing a trailer also kinda sucks dick. and if you're parking it, you have to worry about locking it up. and you can't take it to the same sort of places you could take a van. but it's also a lot easier for me to justify dropping a couple grand on a trailer. the van is so slick though.
Buy an Ural
>>28938131Big cargo vans are definitely fun to own. Be prepared for non-stop "pedo van" jokes from everyone you know. It gets old real quick.

>>28938194>>28938197Oh I see. People ride motorcycles to attract teenage girls. It all makes sense now. I thought you all had a death wish.

Update on the dead battery on my CB1000 Hornet:>they put in a new one for free since it falls under warranty anyway>for some reason the battery didn't charge for the ~50 miles I drove right before I decided to take a break. they couldnt explain why>they assured me that the voltage regulator is fine and the alternator also works>thank god the only thing that reset was the clock, I was afraid the QS would've been completely reset as wellTL;DR new battery for free, might switch to LiFePO4 later this year anyway, even if I've gotta pay for it with my own money'luv me bike, 'ated having to wait for the mechanics to look for a problem that turned out to be a fucking battery swap in the end. still glad to have her backNow I'll wait for this abysmal weather to clear up so I can finally slap my sticky tank pads onto my new tank (different story).
