>>29036091>pic of bike (hosted)What does this even mean?
do you ride with your friends?
>>29036115It means on a website like Imgur or something, a website who’s raison d’etre is hosting images. As opposed to attaching the image of the bike to the email
>>29036131Well it would appear I did not email him correctly
>>29036122I don't have friends. The last one said he will call me to meet up, it was three years ago.
I love riding scooter in warm summer nights
What edition is this?

>Tuner warning, don't run ethanol free fuel.>Find out a lot of people are putting ethanol free fuel in modern high performance cars and motorcycles.>People are paying premium prices for worse performance and worse knock resistance.
I’m 6’4” and adventure bikes are the most comfortable bikes I’ve ever ridden. I love my Tenere but it’s only a matter of time before I say fuck it and add a BMW GSA to the garage. I want something I can ride for hundreds of miles in maximum comfort.
>>29036200It can have a little ethanol free as a treat
>>29036179>I love riding scooter in warm summer nightsMe too, I love seeing women wrestle with keeping their skirts down while operating one
Rolled over 600 miles on my bike, so the first service period. Called my dealership since I got the warranty package, along with pick-up. They can't get out to pick it up until next Tuesday and recommend I don't put any more miles on it until then. I am the fucking RAPED.>>29036203Based. I was going to get a Harley softail but sat down on a Kawasaki KLE and was sold. Being a tall man and seeing a piece of machinery made to fit you is something most people can't appreciate.
>>29036213Where do you live where women wear skirts?God I wish
If the women ride scooters where you live, you're poor
>>29036091clean thread, will be posting my biku
>>29036180This, Idk what to talk about!
>>29036111checked and why would he leave this out? is this a JavaScript tranny thread? need to know ASAP
>>29036122Used to, then that friend god a girlfriend and became lame then that girlfriend turned into a wife and a baby and the bike was sold and I never see him anymore.
>>29036225welcome to lonely rider club HQ
>>29036122Does your bike ride you while you sleep?
>>29036230nigga...
>>29036226I don't find it lonely. I don't mind riding solo, especially since I like to use my bike for weird trips and stuff so it's kind of like personal time more than anything.
>>29036238>it's kind of like personal time more than anything.Yea, me too kid.
>>29036230
I'm like 37 lol
Hello frens! I need a helmet. Does anyone have any recommendations that wouldn’t look out of place atop my 90s-ass kawasaki? I like the biltwell Gringo series, or the Bell Bullits, aesthetically
>>29036254>Hello frens!hey!
I ordered new tubes and tires from Cycle Shlomo and they got everything in a day later except one of the tubes which is taking a week, which I didn't realize this weekend when I put my bike up on the stands and took the wheels off. It's looking like a damn hovercraft
>>29036254
>>29036253bro we are fucking ancient
I keep replying to older threads by mistake....
Spent an hour in a total deluge today>severe thunderstorms >do not travel except in an emergency Rear got plenty squirrelly just from water in the road, but made it home safe Thank you Jesus, thank you Soichiro Honda
>>29036275Not me, I'm in my prime.
>>29036275Niggas in this thread were calling me old back in 2020, they're all gone I turn 37 next week
/o/ is firmly a millennial general in the same sense that 4chan is a millennial website. everyone else is just a tourist.
Are there any California zoomers here? Let's meet up. We'll see who rapes who
There's this guy on the mountain who's a 70+ yr old ex racer and it's so mind bending watching someone who's just league's faster than anyone elseIt's like watching someone move at 2x speed in real life, he moves the bike in a way that's extremely purposeful despite moving at 55+mph in a decreasing radius hairpinIt's crazy just how much difference there is between a track day enthusiast and a genuine racer
>>29036298trvke
>>29036308Training and talent make a huge difference. I too wish I was a racechad but my parents were huge pussies when I was a kid.
>>29036308The fastest guy in District 36, the fastest guy in all of Northern California, showed up to Hang Town National and didn't qualify for the main (top 40 riders)Pro racers are so much faster than the fastest guy you know. It's humbling.
if I had a superman body I would just shoom all day fucking long, especially offroad, no fear about breaking my neck or anything
>>29036350do you ride an r6
>>29036254Arai, they haven't changed their helmets since they started making them.
>>29036267Capeshit is gay
>>29036214Hope you broke it in like an itallian stallion otherwise RIP >>29036298>things an unc would say4chan is always changing, and it sucks but this place sucks less than most of the suck
Used later 90s early 2000s Hayabusas are scarily cheapHow bad of an idea would it be to go from 50cc scooter to Hayabusa?
>>29036298>Tfw no pre-wall qt trap gf
>>29036308>>29036345Something I've noticed a lot of street squids cant wrap their head around is that most of these guys cut their teeth on low power track bikes. I bet if you handed that guy a Ninja 500, R7, or RS660 he would still lap most people on that mountain.>S1000RRMan I really really want one of these, I don't care that its the influence bike.
>>29036298Facts, the only people that leave this website are actually losers irl because they think they need to conform to some sort of standard of interests and websites they visit after a certain age. In reality they are boring and have nothing to do 24/7.
>>29036372Babied it, obeyed all the manual's 'rules' to make sure it was broken in correctly. Rev bombed it a few times for some kids, but otherwise doubt I broke 100 mph more than once if... anything close to that. I'm too old to beat the shit out of vehicles.
I gotta be honest. I don't understand the point of a liter bike for the road. I went from my 300cc to 650cc and it's more than fast enough.
>>29036445Because instagram told them that the only way to get tha gurlz is by having a bigger and faster bike even though the fact that you will statistically see more qts in the back of scooters. It's a fact.
>>29036308its all in the brakes buddy.
>>29036200It's best to mix it if you have a car or baiku that's not resistant to ethanol. 50/50 mix seems to do my beater Jeep well.
Deathsport is the only trve sport.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU-ynRoqDEs
>>29036448Only newfags would think a female cares about a literbike. Foids like Harleys and guys that race dirt bikes
>>29036464My gf loves my naked standard. She repeatedly kept smiling and saying "You're so cool" when I got it.
>>29036278Cute!
>>29036397>Something I've noticed a lot of street squids cant wrap their head around is that most of these guys cut their teeth on low power track bikesNot really in my experience, there's one other racer (active) on the mountain and his lowest powered bike is a grom. The lowest powered bike this guy has is a Husqy 701, but he cross trained a lot with dirtbikes/sumo if that's what you mean.I've actually really only seen 2 people out here who push less than 100hp sportbikes, both were track enthusiasts but nowhere near as fast as the racersKart Track racing is great though, training on smaller bikes is definitely helpful.>>29036448I've asked the fast people on South Grade why they use literbikes on such a tight road and they all say it's the always on tap power, the ability to always enter a corner at the desired speed. None of them say that smaller bikes are bad or the wrong tool, but they all choose liters for the easy power on demand
>>29036485>>29036397Here's some sub 100hp bikes hauling ass though, they're rare but they're cool when they're there
>>29036485Most socal riders get run over by Mexicans before they can achieve greatness
>spent forever finding neutral on a kawasaki
>>29036511If you just sit there with the clutch in there's still a coupling action happening between the clutch plates, , apply very light vertical pressure to shift lever, blip the throttle when trying to find neutral to unload the trans, pops right out of gear. Good luck little anime wrenchlet
My hydraulic clutch bikes never find neutral I think redditnine made a video about why Kawasakis are so easy to find neutral
why is everything reddit
>>29036518You tell me, you're the one that's from there
>>29036520I've been on 4chan for 21 years
>>29036513>>29036515>Grab hand lever>Yank it to neutralSimple as
>>29036523More like r/4chan longcat ass nigga
>>29036485>choose liters for the easy power on demandSo they are ez mode plebs. Got it.
>>29036526Nah we've already established in this thread I'm old.
>>29036492You don’t ride and you will die alone
what to do against analysis paralysis when buying your first bike? I'll (hopefully) have my licence on Aug 17th and it's driving me insane.I'll ultimately go with my gut and heart, but here are the bikes I'm fretting over>Royal Enfield Bear & Interceptor>Moto Guzzi V7 & V85 TT>Kawasaki Z650 RS>Triumph Scrambler 400X/Street 400I'm fine with a used bike as my first onewhat to do what to do
>>29036546Which one is cheaper and less painful when you drop it?Have you sat on any of them? Seat height is a fucking lie on some of these bikes.Do you want to learn to wrench or just get a shop do it?
>>29036546Stop fretting, get an Ural
>>29036546bro obviously the kawasaki. Two jeetbikes and some obscure pastanigger brand? yeah get the z650 lil nigga>>29036543rode your mom last night bitch
>>29036550I'd cry if I dropped any of them, not because of the money, but because I'm careful with my shit. the cheapest would be a used 5 year old Interceptor, the others all cost around the same and 1-2.5k more than the INTI sat on the Bear, the V7, the Z650 and the Triumphs. I flatfoot all of them, the Bear and Scrambler I find the most comfortable I think. But I'm learning on a Honda CB750 Hornet, which is a little lower and it's fine too.I'll gladly learn how to wrench, at least the regular maintenance stuff
>>29036551they're only sold here with the stupid wagon on the side>>29036553the kawa is a beautiful one, but it's built in Thailand, so I don't know if I trust them more than I trust the Italians
>>29036556>Learning on a Honda CB750Explain and expand.
>>29036561Yeah, Ural stopped making Solos sometime ago because they didn't really sell all that well even by Ural standards.You can take the tub off by the way, it's not a very hard job to do, but if your Ural has a leading link/swingarm front then you might not want to even try. Only the telescopic front ones are ridable without a tub, the swingarm front ends become way too twitchy.
>>29036562I'm from Austria, so we don't get our licence by recommendation, but have to go through driving school with 14 hours on the street, thorough theory test and ultimately practical test on the road, in traffic, with a gov official driving in a car behind me, giving me directions.the driving school's bikes for the full A licence are Hornets and that's what I'm driving for these 14 hours.At first I thought it's a bit overpowered, but if you're not retarded and are careful with the throttle it's fine. my teacher had no chill either - at first I was a bit hesitant with my speed - ~80km/h (50mph) but 5 mins in, she gave me a hand signal to go faster and catch up with her and I was fine going the rural speed limits of 100km/h (60mph). through them into the cold water, I guess
>>29036565they're pretty hard to find. there's only a single dealer in the entire country and a whopping 3 used ones. one from the 60s, one from the 70s and one from 2015
>>29036568Good explanation.I would say the bear would be better choice, but you will have to get a fuel controller on it to increase the service intervals. Thank you eurogay5+ for ruining everyones fun.
>>29036581>one from the 60s, one from the 70sSame bike, unless the 60s one is a 6 volt there shouldn't be any mechanical difference between them.The biggest ones might be the carb mounting studs in the heads.Frame might be different too if it's an M63 or M67 frame, probably the latter for the 70s bike.
Finally reassembled my bike. It's been on the lift for at least 2 months.
How much HP is enough for beginner bike?How much is too spicy?
>>29036606I think 30-40HP is perfect for a beginner. If that's too much for you I don't think bike riding is for you at all. I don't think anyone needs more than like 80-100HP for the streets.
>>29036606>below 30piss easy even a baby can ride it>30-50normal, mild>60-70 little spicy but some people like it >80-90quite spicy, thread carefully >100+too spicy, a live cam content in waiting but im sure literanon will argue that anything less than 100hp isnt a real baik
>>29036254Do not buy a Bell QualifierWorst helmet I've ever had.I love my Bell Moto 3 and OLD Shoei street helmet.
My first bike which I bought a few months ago, a Ducati Monster 620. Been having a blast driving it. Got it for 2k eur (EU) with basically every maintenance done.
I want to go out riding since it's finally not raining but I'm chronically sleep deprived
>>29036645Welcome to the new world in which they control you via sleep, caffeine, energy, and lack thereof.Escape it
Time for a 450km roadtrip to get some shitty toyotas oilpan welded.
>>29036655I've noticed that the more coffee I drink the more lethargic I am. Green tea seems to be better for me. But I wish I could sleep properly so that I won't accidentally kill myself when I go out riding.
ausfag herewanting to get into bikesis $5k enough to get into this (LAMS course gear and bike)i can do basic work on it etcdon't care about new assume im gonna bin/drop it anywaywould rather something comfy rather than fast
Does being physically strong matter as to avoid dropping a bike?
>>29036689THINN BOY detected! Post that body son I'll tell you what you can handle
>>29036689yeah but being taller is better than being a stock manlet
>>29036546Don't intentionally buy anything made by indians.
>>29036704I can squat/deadlift three plates and a bit more
>>29036721Yea let's see it!
Did an off-road rally this past weekend on a KLR using their provided dual-sport gpx files. Learned me that for the riding I want to do more of the KLR is not the bike for me. Looking to sell it and either get a new KLX 300 or find a used WR250R and I'm torn on which route to go. You retards got any input?
>>29036723I don't swing that way "bro"
is 40 pounds in bike weight a big difference for a beginner? talking about ease to learn and improve, not performance.
