>>28959036Bring back dsg, scooter thread
>>28959061my family got a lot of bikes over the years that I keep taking out to ride from K7 Gixxer, T120, MV Brutale, vrod, vespa, motocompobut the one that actually my ownare Yamaha Grand Filano 120ccHuntercub 125Chink Zontes 368gDT50in couple of years will probably sell my chink maxi for transalp or whatever good used middle class ADV come around when I have the cash so transalp, 800de, ibex800, Zontes 703f, tiger 900, Pamam whatever around the budget
So now that cars are way faster than. Bikes what's the point? Is this the reason dbt is dead?
>>28959127because of jew people cant afford cars or fill it upso there will always be people on dem bikes
>>28959133Wild
>>28959127How much for a car that's faster than 5s 0-60?
>>28959140Caterham only cost 50k brand new

I was considering Tiger 800 instead of Versys, but it was out of my budget at the time.
>>28959036I like old bike
Daily Reminder:Onsa is real. Kando is very real.
>>28959101Did you know ZZR was a tourer, not ss?
>>28959168Same
>>28959166HODL thenyou can only save more money for better bikethe bike price only drop down until it meet your budget
>>28959165>On what basis?Idk, I just got a feelin'
>>28959179Budgets are for poor people
>>28959179I already have Yamaha in a very small market and 0 ability to buy another bike without first selling current one.
>>28959180Admittedly I don't know jack shit, but I've never taken my bike to a workshop.I do all my maintenance and such by myself.
>>28959184nice alternator, you can post here all you want. if anyone fucks with you, tell them youre with me.
Bros, I don't fit into summer mesh gear...
>>28959188Workout and eat better. You got this bruh
>>28959190>eat better.Surely you meant eat less...
>>28959190work in and eat butter, I got this
>>28959127My bike is slower than my car and my car is a rav4
>>28959127My bike doesn't even go fast.
there's a home depot with a view of the hollywood signnever seen a home depot with rooftop parking before lolalso I put a windshield on, works pretty great
>>28959044baste
>>28959172Yeah it means I only pay like $20/month in insurance. Funny enough though it’s just a previous generation Ninja ZX6E, renamed when they started making the ZX6R, so it would’ve been classified as a super sport if it was made a decade earlier with the exact same parts, engine, fairings, seat & suspension lol.But don’t tell my insurance agent that…
Didn't really get any opinions on this in a previous thread.I currently have a 2021 Svartpilen 401 and I want to move up to something bigger. I have had it from new and it has been fun, but I don't want any more of the KTM crap attached to a bike like that.Thinking about something used and have been thinking about getting either a 2024 MT07 or a MT09 from 2016, since they hover around the same price point where I live.I have been on a couple of MT07, but never a 09.I mostly use my bike as a weekend thing, but do sometimes use it for commute on the freeway.The 401 works, but it is strained on the freeway.Is the 07 "enough" bike, or should I jump to the 09 for the nicer suspension and brakes?
>>2895926107 is enough for everything you really need, 09 is often claimed to be more fun07 has shitty suspension, 09 is okI'd personally go with 09 just because 07 has a tank shape that tries to crush my balls every time I break too hardAlso, look at tracer 7
>>28959170>kando>realLmao>>28959243Nice, LA smog
>>28959243Whoa
>>28959299>>28959301yeah it was pretty smoggy yesterday but it made for a cool sunset
>>28959244>ticks
>>28959294Prefer a naked, so Tracer is not it.Thanks for the input though. Might go for the 07 then
>>28959243is that the home depot near the chemical explosion thats about to happen?you should go over there and take a pic, wait til it goes off first though
>>28959261I woulnt bother with MT09 or CP3 bikes unless you go with XSR900GP or Tracer 9but even then Tracer 7 is still fine
buy suzuki
>>28959358Why?
>>28959358I’d rather not, honestly. I like what I like.
>>28959358I will probably, it's on top of the list for me.
>>28959377cant you at least put transalp on that list?
>>28959380No, unless it's the old one. I don't like the new one for some reason. I'd rather get a used Africa Twin instead.
>>28959377>this clusterfugI remebah you
>>28959318are you not wearing pants while riding fren
>>28959314Damn, bro. Good eye for lighting.
>>28959391Show me motorcycle pants for the hot summer season.
>>28959127Faster than what?Bikes are for the next generation who has no money.Most poster are out riding, touching grass and chasing ass.
>>28959395doesn't exist fren sry. You either wear thick riding pants for safety or you take your chance with lighter pants or shorts but if you fall well rip idk
Girls like Hane don't exist
>>28959395I'd rather suffer from sweaty balls than deal with ticks, so even during the summer I wear long johns tucked in my socks and jeans on top.
>>28959354Oh, I thought that was way way bigger. It's just bad zoning. My city we have massive oxygen and fuel tanks out at the bay, that would only destroy the airport, a couple of bridges and the rich people suburbs.

I was the anon looking for a dirt capable twin with screw/locknut valves. About the only option is a Moto Guzzi v85tt, which is a weird ass transverse v-twin with saft drive. Aside from being a porker for dirt, has anyone owned one of these engines? I hear nothing but horror stories about Italian motorcycles, split engine blocks at 8k miles, blown for seals, etc. Are the Guzzis that bad?
>>28959466P sure dbt has only one moto guzzi ownerShaft drive is kinoItll sound good but at that weight id rather just have a scrambler i guess
>>28959357It's going to be the MT07.Don't want a bike with fairings.If it were to be the XSR, it would be the regular one, but then we're out of budget anyway
>>28959466yea but you deal with it because>Italianluigi may have had too much wine to drink on the day your bike was made, but thats just the sovl of an italian bike
>>28959495>StelvioShit, man. Vroom vroom.
>>28959472>P sure dbt has only one moto guzzi ownerIt had three or so.One stelvio, one red was it V65 and one California
>>28959036Cool of you to show the baby some love OP!>History editionIn the mid late 80s italian manufacturers started a war to make the best 125. These bikes could be ridden by 16 year olds and they were fast with about 30 hp and around 100 mph.Honda couldn't compete with the italians so they got the italians to design and build bikes out of italian parts, grimeca brakes and wheels, marzocchi suspension, gilardoni cylinder, etc and the craziest part was the frame, a thick cast aluminium frame (alucast). There was a naked, a faired version and even an SP edition.Honda being Honda wanted the bike to be easier to ride and frendlier than the racier pure italians and had big success. Muh electric start only (except SP).You could see many of these bikes and even RD 350s and RG 500s with the odd i4 back then:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07cN6Lj_U1whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z5ro3V3JIYThis is what they took from us
>>28959472I was gonna get one but ended up getting a honda instead.
>>28956739>>28951548Vibey Yamaha XJ6 anon here.I did vacuum leak check with generous amount of carb cleaner, around throttle bodies boots and the ones below that go into manifold - nothing.Then I redid Throttle Body Synchronization but this time around 8K RPM instead of idle. It's curious that on idle (~1.3K RPM) vacuum is even across cylinders. But if you rev up the bike - cylinders 2 & 3 begin to lag behind. Broke two of the little shit vacuum hose plugs in half, should probably look for replacement if I keep doing this. Doing TBS on like 11K RPM near redline is also an option, but I don't think my neighbors would appreciate. Even I would need earplugs for that.Torqued front steering tri-clamps to spec, their punch bolts that fix them to forks. Upper ones were pretty loose.Finally, did away with rubber padding between handlebar mounts and risers >>28954138, because I was done with bar impotently rotating under the clamp on me. When different risers arrive I might repeat this experiment.Test ride impressions:The vibes moved from 6-9K RPM to 7.5-9K RPM, as before - any higher than 9K and they are so high-frequency it's imperceptible.But a 7K being vibe-free is already a win, as this is a comfortable cruising RPM.Right peg & right handle (throttle-side) still vibrate, but how should I put this. The amplitude seems lower. Now if I just put weight of my arms on them - I don't feel the numbing sensation anymore. I did a ~1.5 hour round trip on a highway and my hands weren't numb after anymore.This still isn't as comfortable as the bike was after I got it, but it's already much better.AI slop recommends checking front steering bearing, since it's an easy check I will do it tomorrow.Then I will hope that a better handlebar, different mounts, & bar end weights would solve the rest of the problem. If all fails - I will consider anon recommendation and hammer two fucking kilograms of fishing weights into the bar.
>>28959466About 30% of moto guzzis are lemons, the rest will refuse to die.v85tt is great, but it's the only bike I STRUGGLED to pick up.

thoughts on the RE shotgun 650 lads?i rode on the meteor 350 a couple of times and it was surprisingly fun, only issues were the power output and forward controlsshotgun seems to fix those issues so it got me interested
can i be next thread picture please? "bad ideas edition" or something.I got lucky that 30 minutes later a fucking 2m tall dude came from the same road i did with his big adv and we pulled it out from there and waddled it trough a field to get past that spot, it was all super soft mud, like 15cm deep
>>28959563dude you can't park there its a fire lane
>>28959358Nice
>>28959570I mean it's just a theory, but if you put it here on its right side and pulled it while sitting on the ground you'd pull the front wheel to the hard ground.
>>28959575Beep Beep Beep, what you don't have AAA.I have RAC un F my S level.
>>28959358>150000very cute post
>>28959575I tried back then but the picture doesn't show how Little space Is left on the right and how inclined the ground was. We had to push It back trying to keep It as close to the Woods as possible while i was in the middle of the mud trying to not let It slide back in or fall to the side.I Need a dedicated trail buddy and some easier tracks but the Onsa lucky charm worked again and It only got two Little scratches from this and the other ordeal i put It trough today

>>28959653Make sure to give them your unsolicited opinions on the jews to make sure you can keep riding alone
My old new bike is still at the dealer, they are willing to trade it in but are reluctant to buy it back.RRREEEEE, I want to ride, but none of the bikes available at that dealer speak to me.
will I die if I go from an R3 to a GSXR750 after like two months of riding

Why did no one tell me that owning a bike is all it takes to socialize as an autist? I rode around town and stopped to talk to one guy with a souped up BMW and he invited me to a cookout with his boys, then a 636 parked outside a restaurant and he invited me out to ride, and then a group of bikers at a gas station who let me ride along and taught me how to pop wheelies. Wtf
>>28959743>one guySome of us are out here trying to get biological pussy if I wanted to talk to a nigger I just log in to 4chang
>>28959743>as an autist>stopped to talk to one guyYou are not autistic, you just another young kiddo who craves for attention. Try tiktok brainrot and tell them about your condition while dancing lmao.
>>28959743you are not autisticsome young dude basically verbally assaulted me at a gas station and then gave me his phone number to go ride with him and i havent texted him since because im actually autistic

>>28959127Riding a bike is more fun than driving a car. The physics are just more fun. The experience is engaging in a way higher level than a car will give you. I don't ride to go fast. I ride to ride.

so after destroying my rear seat cowl, of which is impossible to replace due to scarcity, during a rage fit because of diy painting gone wrong, i've decided that i'm better off getting a motorcycle with readily available fairing kits that can be shipped to your door painted. is the 6th gen honda vfr a good choice?
>>28959899No, buy my zx14r and free me from indentured servitude at the hands of the RCMPyou have the financial power to both save and redeem Shoomers, should you accept this quest, the timeline can be saved and globohomo defeated by the REAL AMERICAN MC 1%er Resistance forces, but with Shoomers captive inside the suffering nexus of the alberta oblast- that great victory will never be realizedOnly (((you))) can save him and seat cowls forever from the SSBEOY timelineHurry, time is of the essenceOr else use duct tape and patchwork it into a working shape thatll bolt on and cast a mould from it to vaccum seal a new prototypeBesides, iant it cheaper to commission a plastic fabricator than buying a whole new bike?
>>28959899If you have such little self control that you let your inner tard destroy things over minor setbacks then maybe motorcycling is just a bad choice for a hobby in general.

>>28959912>like 2500 dollars for 10hp/10tq gain. not sure if worthAre you racing this bike where such marginal gains could make a difference? Or are you just looking at parts catalogs too much and wasting money on a street bike?
>>28959892You stupid fucking ni**er, take it slow. I have both 300 and 850, 850 is not more fun than a 300. Take it slow while learning and while on public roads. Stop acting like mustang drivers.
>>28959917>Or are you just looking at parts catalogs too much and wasting money on a street bike?That one. My current cam with tune benefits more from being around 4500 rpmI always ride this bike just under 3k. I don't even know what I'm doing anymore. I started shopping with the intent to make my engine more reliable. That would be head breathers, piston jets, and the comp ramp. But then I thought if I'm opening up the top.... might as well.... >MFW
>>28959918it's 4chan anon you can say nigger.I am a reasonably responsible driver lol, getting to 100 isnt something im doing regularly, just nice to know I can. The wheelie was just an accident. My biggest complaint with the R3 is that I literally have to like shift gears before im even through interesections, like first gear ends at about 28mph. I just want a bit more than that, and then I need good passing power at like 75mph, which it really doesnt have
>>28959922I get it, man. I've gone down the rabbit hole myself. I spent a lot of money making a small displacement shitbike go just a LITTLE faster. Ended up selling it and just buying a bigger bike. I don't even crave speed, I just liked the idea of having the most bullshit done to it possible. All I got out of it were some cool Malossi stickers and the desire to do it out of my system.

>>28959570First time I took my dual sport offroad, I got stuck in mud for like 2 hours. Part of that was me resting after dragging the damn thing out of the mud, trying to remove mud caked on it, etc. Ever since then I try to avoid mud. Especially if I don't have aggressive knobbies. Mud is a bitch and I think it's the weakspot of the "offroad bike". Any other vehicle that would even think about going through intense mud has 4wd.
>>28959928Yup. I just want to molest my bike. I'm thinking what I really desire is an older harley to wrench on. To have the wrenching desire but to be a wrenchlet and stick with bolt-on parts... that is like purgatory
>>28959844>cuteErm, excuse me, but the black one is a race spec 12,000 rpm beheaded kamikaze. Show it the respect it deserves.
>>28959816Cool kymcos.
>>28959743Thats amazing.
>>28959955I'm going to curb stomp this bitch
>>28959926I've been banned way too many times on blue boards. Having to shift is not a problem, you'll get used to it. Having more passing power is problem, try riding at higher RPMs, after your break-in period. Before a bigger bike consider getting a tech air 5 plasma.

>>28959963It was 15c and yes visibility was very low. Was giving my dad a hand on putting his engine back together.
>>28959988Thumbnail looks like you're holding a snake.
>>28959988I guess just grind the left over part to the main bar offget some nice thick and strong steel sheet, cut it nicely and bend it into a saddle and weld that to that same spot, then weld the flat bar into that saddle If you are confident enough to trust your bike with your own welding skill then go right onPersonally I would just buy a new one
>>28959992Yessssss kinda ddoes brossssss>>28959993I thought i could reuse both piecesNow youre saying i need new bar and a drill pressAnd a paintjobs afterFug
>>28959995I mean you can still use the old pieces just trim the edge of the small bar you holding now and weld that to the new saddle cleanly maybe double up the saddle thickness to compensate the length you trim off make it match the old length where it goes on your bike
>>28959999one thing to addif this is a cheap temu crash barthere is no need to saddle shit upjust clean up the old weld and weld it directly if you wantcause really the other part will snap next time you drop it anyway
I'm tired of everyone telling me to get an SV650 or an MT07.I want a Ducati Monster and everyone is telling me it's a bad idea
>>28960024So get a Ducati Monster. I don't see what the issue is.
>>28959986CB500 My beloved!
>>28960024Get an SV650 or MT07. Ducati Monster is a bad idea.
>>28960024I think you should get KTM duke or its chink clone
>>28960036Get Bajaj, it's a licensed copy of KTM Duke by a poo country for less money, if I remember correctly.
>>28960044Poobike
>>28959570shartpillen indeed
>>28959613So many old boxers around me, I'm also thinking about lowballing some boomers to get one, but at the same time I don't know if I want an old shitbike. Even worse if they will continue to be reliable and comfy giving no reason to get rid of the bike.
>>28959535>The amplitude seems lower. Now if I just put weight of my arms on them - I don't feel the numbing sensation anymore. I did a ~1.5 hour round trip on a highway and my hands weren't numb after anymore.That was bullshit. My wrists hurt the day after. I should've brought my old bike over instead of selling it.
>>28960087If they were cheap old BMW boxers, I'd be swimming in them, over here they are not cheap :(
>>28960071it cleaned up all nice now>>28959935yeah before this part there was anothe mud crossing i couldn't avoid and i dropped the bike and spent probably 30 minutes getting it upright because i couldn't get a grip with my boots and was completely out of breath. i don't think i've ever been that tired before, wrestling that thing in the mud 4 times in 30 degrees weather drained me completely.>>28959663i have on video the first smallest mud puddle i had to ride trough and as soon as i reached the other side i started sliding but i kept it upright, the gravel roads at the start of the forest and the more tidy dirt roads at the top of the hill where really nice tho as long, i can see these working on more dry places with little to no rocks and holes
Has anybody attempted to replace a tubeless tire on their own with amazon tools? How difficult is it? Or should I just take the bike to a shop?
what are the top options for mid weight ADV thesedays?
>>28960128T7 for simplicity and beating the shit out of it. Taureg for maximum grunt to weight. Probably the Transalp or 800DE for crunching miles.I'm sorry to all the ktm 890/f900gs fanboys, but I refuse to call a 900cc bike, no matter how good, a fucking middleweight. We have to draw a line in the sand.
There's really not that much anime itt
>>28960176if your gonna bring it up then at least post some
>>28960121This looks like a Honda am I right?
>>28960121Take it to a shop. Even if you get the new tire on you're gonna have problems setting the bead
>>28960121not worth doing yourself without a machine
>>28960176post some yourself thenFellas yesterday's adventure just made me want to get another beta, it's clearly the superior trail bike for manlets
>>28960180>>28960205i dont have any, i just steal anime from here and /c/, is that bad?

>>28959832nice congrats have fun
>>28960243I want to do it when I get my license. What countries are the best on TET?
New ohlins rear shock arrives in only a couple of days now..>Excellent
>>28960276whats that gonna do for you that your current one doesnt
>>28960262honestly idk fren I'm a beginner I started riding the tet very recently and only on a smol section, I can't tell you which cunts have the best sections but I don't think that you can go wrong with countries like France or Italy or Spain, or even Germany, they have lots of nice countryside. Switzerland too maybe
Bros is it misfiring or am I tripping? https://vocaroo.com/12MVjIpWhor0This is cold start, inline4 injector, Yamaha XJ6

>>28960329did you ever do a valve adjustment yet
>>28960329that bih sounds like its knockin' to me RIP btw
>>28960226michelin mast race>goodyearit should be illegal for a company that makes such a shit product to still be in business
>>28960240yea do it
>>28960329Sounds utterly normal. Remember that tappy valves are happy valves. Protip is that a misfire will always make itself VERY well-known, especially on a four cylinder. You'll hear thrum-thrum-thrum-BRUM- (and here the RPMs will drop REAL low - almost to stalling) and the whole bike will shudder hard then thrum-thrum-turm-BRUM and so on. It's not a minor thing.
>>28960351>it should be illegal for a company that makes such a shit product to still be in businessboldest of claims my darkest of nobike leanlet ni66er bretherin, lettuce bear witness that back tire of thoustmve're. YAMAHA
>>28960243>french TET>that bridge Oh fuck we live closeby i think
>>28960359>1cylare you thin by any chance?
>>28960329>>28960347>valve adjustment yetNot yet. Will ask the shop to do it in a month, when I'll have to stop using bike for a while anyway.>>28960350Don't pull me leg, I'm neurotic and WILL order replacement coils when stressed.>>28960355I see. Euro bill test video. I don't see it being sucked in. Do you? https://files.catbox.moe/kxdhdn.mp4
>>28960363>WILL order replacement coils when stressed.yea do it, maybe that will help with the low oil pressure and smoked bearings.
>>28960329>Yamaha Yea you're cooked. Yamaha isnt actually a good brand.
>>28960363coils wouldn't do shit about knock, but that doesn't sound like rod knock, like I said in my previous comment, it's just tappy valves being happy valves. You probably don't need an adjustment, but you should be able to check the tolerances yourself; since they're still audibly tappy I'd say they're fine. Traditionally, valves are installed to the low end of the tolerance, and tighten over time as the bike wears - at which point they need loosened again. From your video that is 100% not misfiring. Chill out dude. Motorcycles are loud and grumbly and vibratey.
>>28960361i guess? i'm just a manlet that wishes it was taller so it could ride glourious dual sport/light enduro with no issues without lowering them
>>28960363WEBM Euro bill test>>28960369Okay thanks>>28960365>low oil pressureOctober 2024 there was "Check oil" indicator going off couple minutes after ride start, went away on its own after a month or so. The level is sufficient and I change it every year. Chalked it up to cold weather.Do concern me more about this though.
>>28960374Found your address by the serial number on the bill. That's going to be dbt's next meet up place.
Does anyone have a good version of the image file used to print these stickers?I have a vector with no color information KEK
>>28960379As long as you're okay with cheap rum in a dusty room
>>28960359cute 'pilen fren! I've seen a few around where I live maybe one of them was you
>>28960240Only if you want your chain to last 20,000+ miles
>>28960386depends on where you usually go to ride on road because i never saw another gen 3 pilen around here and i had to ride a bit of highway to reach the mud hell so close but not that much.also it might be a totally different bridge and be being a retard again but i remember i saw it before when looking for "nearby" trails
>>28960281>What can it do that stock can'tA LOT. Fully Adjustable settings and not being ancient at 26 years old is just two big points off rip.I also got a suspension link that remedies the rear shock being off center. Which means more available traction due to the suspension geometry being more linear.OEM just can't compete with Ohlins.
Am I the only person who is convinced chain drives on road motorcycles is a gimmick to produce transmissions cheaply while pretending you are manufacturing racing machines while consumers are happy? It's the worst drive out of all, suitable only for racing bikes and bicycles at best (yet my personal bicycle still has a belt drive). Wtf anons? How retarded are riders? Shaft is a godsend drive, yet only BMW and Guzzi are trying to keep them alive.inb4 b-but the shaft eats 50cc of engines power (then put more power you retard), btw all the comparisons performed on a new chain freshly lubed not on your crusty whatever you have back there
>>28960396>yet only BMW and Guzzi are trying to keep them alive.Ahem
>>28960396Chains have sovl, simple, cheap, and most efficient in transferring energy to the rear wheel. Luv me chains simple as. Shaft drive is neat though, perhaps we can agree belts are cringe.
>>28960400Yeah, I already said BMW
>>28960044Nuke India
>>28960402That's an indian actually
>>28960401>belts are cringeUr mom is cringe anon, belts are amazing and are miles ahead of chainscin every single term.
>>28960404It's a honda CX500, see how the cylinders are jutting out?
>>28959892Of course its fast enough. People use R3's as a learner track bike for racing.
>>28960395>26 years old>i'll allow iti thought you were replacing a 2 year old shock on a new bike only just because yellow-brand-popular

Today and yesterday i learned that israelis love zx14r bikesBecause those are the only two dming me asking to buy this 'kuWonder if ill sold it today?
>>28960414make sure you charge them 29% interest
>>28960406That thing looks hideous. Like an inbred VFR.>>28960412Meh, heavy. Great for tourers. I liked my old CB750 which had one though>>28960410Yeah no. I'd never buy nu-slop.
>>28960417>he didnt websters dictionary and biblical concordance the meaning of the name Shoomer(s)Shomer ShabbosAlso, should i go roding with my tallit gadol today on the zx14r past a synagogue? Might work with thw advertising, but i sadly dont have an israeli flag to double down withI shouldve done this during the itanian protestors yesterday, i saw one israeli flag there so im assuming the group was anti-irgcBut ive also never ridden with my super tallit before bros, worried it might be sucked into the chain, and its a very clean white wool i dont want bugguts on :/
>>28960394I live in a pretty dense area with lots of baikus so I've seen a few pilen but maybe not like yoursto get to that bridge I need to ride like 30-40 minutes, and from there it's a 15 minutes rides iirc. It's a pretty cool area imo
>>28960396Unless you're cool with everyone swapping to mounting all these parallel twins with longitudinal crankshafts, I don't see that happening. Also, I don't know much about belt drives, but how do you keep mud and rocks from fucking up the speockets + belt?
>>28960240I lubed the chain on my old shitbike. Then I stopped to lube it. I noticed no difference, maybe a tiny bit more rust which doesn't stay there when I ride regularly.On a newer bike I never lubed it and didn't spot any rust.>>28960344Literally you.
>>28960439Somebody NEEDS to make road6 anon a Michelin man jak'

>>28960434Loved these since I heard one razzing round my local city centre with a naughty pipe. Also reminds me of Scout Trooper helmets.
>>28960460you better buy z1100rs next year then
>>28960451DRZ4
>>28960462The older version is superior in every way.
>>28960462Why the DRZ4?Sorry I deleted my post anons. I got a little self conscious.
>>28960471its somewhere in the middle of the two, its road legal but faster than dr350the brand new DRZ4S is nice but the price is kinda retard so let someone else be the retard and you can buy those used in 4-5 years
>tfw shoomer sale en routeHes coming to look at itJew bros, pray for great successZx14r timeline can finally end
>>28959036What do you wear under the jacket in hot weather?
>>28960488A hoodie or similar
>>28959181you must be the greatest business 'man' in your village.
>>28959354>wait til it goes off first thoughya in 2 more weeks. You ever see some small fire get so much coverage on the news? I wonder what those slimey fucks are up to.
>>28960462>>28960470>>28960471>>28960475Literally just get an old Dizzer.The only thing you're compromising on will be the suspension which isn't great on either of them and if you ever even get close to the limit of the stock suspension on either you'll get get better forks.
>>28959443>do not put anything in the rear pockets. You will lose it.more excellent bike noob advice as usual.
>>28960507The ONLY downside of the DRZ was the 5-speed, and they didn't even update it to a 6-speed.Fucking retarded
>>28960507>if you ever even get close to the limit of the stock suspension on either you'll get get better forks.you can do that by just softening up your compression via the adjusters. The DRZ just need a nice fake chineeeez Ohlins setup.
>>28960509well apparently you needed lower seat height ya manlet
>>28960511Yeah, I wanted to include some suspension comparisons in >>28960507 but I ran out of room and realized there is far too much to talk about between models and potential mods.These cross training enduro videos are GOATEDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwqVjnddOGAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWUHSDq7JsYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ep80_2rSo08
Good morning I hate women
>>28960514What? I'm saying both models have a 5 speed because Suzuki didn't update it.The new bike has a lower seat height and I was shitting on the new bike.Besides, you could just buy a lower seat for like $100
>>28960380It's been about 10 years since I bought one of those and stuck it on my SV650, holy fuck.
>>28960518I'm going to corner her and show her my side by side comparison of the old dizzer and new dizzer until she sucks my cock and rebuilds my carburetor.

>>28960543That head being snapped back makes me check my own is still attached every time
>>28960475>>28960507I’ll look into an old DRZ400 or (Dizzer) then.Out of curiosity though guys; do you guys think the pros way outweigh the cons in getting a DRZ400 over a 2 smoke?I apologize if I’m being repetitive. I’m actually diagnosed OCD and adhd, so I legitimately overthink everything like this. It’s not fun.Anyway- part of me does like the idea of being able to do MX stuff which does interest me, plus the raw torquey power of 250 2 strokes is just addicting. However I do very much so like the idea of being able to actually use a DRZ400 on the road, and at night. HahaIdk- like I said, I apologize if I’m being repetitive or whatever. It’s just the hardest thing in the world for me to make decisions.I do love the looks of the old DRZ.
>>28960555Poor frog :c
>>28960557Hopefully a nuclear winter never happens. Either way, I’m hoping whatever bike I decide to get it helps me get out more.
>>28960555MotoCross is an entire other hobby. You're talking about doing top end rebuilds every 50 hours and bottom ends every 100 hours.You also need an entire set of gear, a lot of skill, time, money, access, and you need to be able to pay for hospital bills.If you're actually entering the MX hobby then yeah, get an MX bike like the RM. There's virtually no crossover between the sport of MX and riding dualsports.
Oh man I haven't been here in ages, how's it hanging fellow riders
