Eliminator or Vulcan?

Sometimes I like to hold in my turds and ride my hawg in 3rd gear. The vibrating makes the pressure from the turd press against my prostate and it feels gooooood.

a job

Reposting from the tail end of the last thread. Bought my first bike a few days ago and I plan to start practicing with it tomorrow. 2008 Honda Rebel, 250cc. A few days off during work days allows a lot less traffic to contend with. All the gear squared away, and insurance soon to follow. Even scheduled a class.

Now all I have to do is not get myself killed or let someone else do the deed.

Any advice, exercises, encouragement to get a litre bike as soon as possible?

>>28460927
congrats anon, welcome to /dbt/

>>28460901
We love our YouTube fatwives here

>>28460927
250 cruiser to a leaderbike is quite the jump compadre
maybe just take it slow, for now.

and remember to always wear your gear - it doesnt matter if its 30c out there, you'd rather ruin a jacket than your skin

>>28460927
If you were American you could buy a liter bike right now.

>>28460927
>Any advice,
Leave it in the garage.
Buy a dirt bike.
Take it out for 8 hours every weekend.
Start riding the rebel in autumn.

>>28460927
grats brotha
if you live somewhere with a bunch of warehouses, go use their loading dock areas to practice get a feel for your bike
always wear gloves
if you want a sports litrebike, consider getting a sports styled smaller cc bike - controls and position are wildly different

>>28460947
faggot

My first bike. Midlife crisis edition?

>>28460966
grats boomer, you gonna go touring?

>>28460916
Y tho?

>>28460901

>>28460968
A bit over the summer. Lots of dirt roads where I live too, so some offroad capability doesn't hurt.

The warehouse parking lot is a good idea, but as to the dirt bike I have few options. Additionally Ive been bicycling for years and its my main cardio workout. The litre bike was a joke, Ive been thinking to get somethibg more along tbe lines of a 90s cb750 or a SV650 eventually. Im not interested in racing, just riding and camping in just off the roadside nooks.

As for gear use discouraged by weather, I work in an non air conditioned factory in the south. If theres a breeze on me its better than a HV beekeeper suit at work.

>>28460966
welcome to /dbt/ bro, nice bike

>>28460984
What is the Porsche 928 of motorcycles?

>>28460966
nice colors anon

It's humid and shitty outside, I'm taking a nap next to my motorcycles.
Goodnight, dbt.

>>28460992
I don't know a lot about this car, it seems like a platform that departs from Porsche's normal formula, mainly by having the engine in front. Still performed really well as a touring car though, just kind of misses the point about being a Porsche?

>>28460992
Gladius years of the sv650

I feel that I'm really over thinking my first bike, like I want something to learn on, be a daily rider, but also be something I actually want

>>28461023
you don't want your first bike to be something you really want because it's gonna get beat up.

>>28461023
Pretty much any bike you want has a learner's appropriate version. Most of the world has cucked license structures that don't let new riders start out on a "middleweight" or 600 or whatever so the manufacturers basically have to produce a full spectrum. Once you get the bike start planning little trips (even if you have to stay off the interstate), maybe do some light customization but don't fuck the resale, and a year will go by quick. Then you can move on to something else. I think I've usually kept a bike for 12-18 months before I wanna try something new.

>>28460992
>>28461019
I was just about to say this. Specfically the blue Gladius ones.

I mentioned the Shadow 600 project bike my buddy inherited a couple threads back.
This is what hes working with.
I realized with the cut frame and fork mounted bars that someone was going for a bobber build and sent my buddy a couple pics of completed bikes. He got pretty exited and staged the parts to get an idea of what he had..

>Go back to check the header nuts and retorque them after taking a ride
>one is missing, fuck
>M8x1.25 OK they have those at Ace
>Different socket size than the other 7
That's going to bother the fuck out of me if I don't replace them all. I am gonna be a wrenchlet forever

>>28461069
The pic thay sent his excitement level into overdrive.

>>28461023
I'm a firm believer that as long as you can control your wrist with proper grip, leave your ego at the door, and know your limits whilst slowly building them incrementally will permit you to choose any bike you can flat foot.
Personally, if you have absolutely no experience try getting a cool naked bike instead of the sport bike.
>pic unrelated

>>28461069
>$15,000
>i know what i've got
>no lowballers
>will swap for a new R1

>>28461071
Really gonna piss you off when you buy the rest from ace and go to install and realize the factory ones were smaller because of clearance issues in some areas and now half are one size and half are another and some of the originals look like shit now because you forgot they were different size and ground them up with the larger socket but didn't care because you were going to replace them all so then you spent 3 hours on nipponEbay trying to decipher moon runes and Google translate to find OEM parts...

>>28461082
That is absolutely some shit that would happen to me. The ones I bought are a 1/2 inch socket and then OEM are 12mm. I think that would make them the only fasteners on the bike that require an SAE tool. Hopefully after I heat cycle/tighten them a few more times they'll stay torqued or I need to just get an actual OEM replacement this week.

>>28460970

why do harleys have 2 tanks? are they really that heavy?

>>28461128
They used to have 2. Now the other cap just for show I think.

>>28461128
Modern ones have it for heritage reasons.
Old ones have it as a way to extend range for a gas thirsty twin. V twin = Twin tanks,

Also, this >>28461082

>>28461074
This. People coped and dilated endlessly about me starting on a Ducati 999. Talked endless shit that I would wreck and die. As the weeks drug on, they got more and more butt blasted and it seemed like they wanted me to crash at that point so they would be right.
They were all faggots and I still haven't crashed.
Wouldn't recommend starting on a bike like that, but you can absolutely start on a 600 if you're mature about it with no ego.

>>28461109
The nap was amazing.

>>28461215
>kick starts are just more satisfying
I've jumped up and down on too many kickstart levers to romanticize them. The satisfying part was just the fucking thing actually working in one or two kicks, so "relief" was probably a better word.

>>28461299
The good news is that newbie sport bikes are almost naked bikes with fairings. The Ninja 400/500 is a classic example. Or beyond that there's the "softer sport" genre like the RS660 and the GSX-8R.

>>28461299
Ive run the gambit and my tastes change gradually over the years.
Kind of.
There's certain bikes I'll always wrap my legs around but a style i found too "yuppie" 5 years ago I may embrace today.
Ive also been ahead of the curve and liked a type of bike and got bored of it about the time it became mainstream.
Im really fucking old by the way.
Like ive already taught the grandkid how to ride so im not some faggot zoomie going "omg these 2025 builds are so cool and retro" kind of shit.

Went back and blocked off the secondary air intake, disconnected O2 sensor, took another ride. Yup, decel pop is completely gone and the sound is just straight up fuckin intoxicating now. Love it. Header nuts all made it home too, it's gonna be a good week br/o/s.

You forgot the part where he took his helmet off, they literally had his face on camera, next to his very unique bike. 20 minute YouTube video with him talking. Multiple calls to the state police that day with timestamps and reports of when he was blasting down the highway. Out of state rider with his phone transmitting on Denver towers.

Quit fucking posting this video like it's some dead nails proof that BIG BROTHER WILL ALWAYS GET YOU, you stupid fucking retarded nigger faggot.
>generic sport bike
>takes off from police in your own city
>phone captured transmitting on local towers
>No face
>Change fairings
>New helmet
OH WAIT, NO, SHUT IT DOWN. MY PHONE WAS USING THE TOWERS IN MY OWN CITY, THEY FUCKIN GOT ME.

Shut the fuck up you stupid fucking retarded nigger. They would literally have to crowd source, "has anyone seen this generic sport bike rider?" And someone would have to know you. But here's the kicker, DON'T FUCKING SHOW THE COPS YOUR GEAR AND YOUR BIKE. NO EVIDENCE.

>>28461392
A few guys have gotten ID by the cops because of they're bikes. They end up being one of a few bikes in a town so its easy to narrow down the address.

>>28461398
Yes, this does happen, but that's exactly what I'm saying. Someone has to know you already. Don't go running from the cops in a small town anyway, that's just retarded. You'll have to deal with the cops at that point, but if they don't have your face, they can't prove it was you.

This retard keeps posting the Gixxer brah video as if it's some proof that no face no case is bullshit, when literally had his face on camera because he took his helmet off, AND same thing with S1k rocket who got arrested recently. They had his face from Instagram lives.

how do I do a 450 mile ride without suffering too much?

Couldn’t ride because I was shitting literally all day.

>>28461421
Drink plenty of water the evening before, wear earplugs if you don't already, and maybe get a throttle boss if you don't have cruise control. The first time I tried to cover 300+ miles in a day that was the one thing I wasn't expecting, using way too much grip pressure on the throttle and just gripping the bars too tight in general tires you out needlessly. I've seen guys use those additional seat cushions before and they say they work, I haven't tried one yet.

tearing apart the DR350 today, and hiding from the lightning.
Whoever owned the bike last overfilled the fuck out of the oil.
Like almost double what it should have.
It's a dry sump so they probably thought it was empty.

What are the chances something got damaged from that?

>>28461466
Very little.
Aeration of the oil in theory but if youre not hearing any knocking or rattling then you're good.

>>28461462
Rode it the other day, and yesterday where I saw some dude total his Ktm 1290

>>28461467
The engine wouldn't "rev up" according to the auction. I assumed a blocked jet (I'm tearing apart the little Mikuni now) but could the extra oil prevent that as well?

I imagine the piston rings would be the first to go/blow if there was too little air(too much oil) in the crank case, right?

It's probably fine since it sounded okay idling before I started ripping into it, but I guess I need to learn how to rebuild a top end anyways if it's fucked.

Yeah but on an air cooled 883 or 1200 they’re perfect

I guess they just expect the owners to replace that thing?

>>28461472
How does the carb look? Ive rebuilt that same model a few times now. Are you replacing the rubber seals and were you able to remove those philips screws w/o stripping them?

>>28461788
I like how I can't even tell if the exhaust has been edited in photos now.

>>28461798
What do you mean? That's what it could've looked like. This is what Honda actually delivered.

While I am glad I now know how to fix a punctured tube with tire spoons, fuck whoever dropped a bunch of nails on a state highway.

I am hugely ass mad that retro bikes tend to go with the bobber style and don’t just ape the looks of the 50s and the 60s whole cloth

>>28461812
Some of the best looking bikes ever devised, and it wouldn’t even be difficult to make bikes that look right, here’s an example of a dressed up evo sportster
Coming from factory the exhausts would have to be thicker but besides that - which is easy to change after the fact - it’s not like the car world where there’s a million regulations of roof height and car has to be able to go upside down and on and on
They don’t do it because they SUCK

Carb looks so-so. The screws were fine, the float bowl screws had already been replaced with hex screws so that's one less thing to do.
I've already ordered an All Balls rebuild kit for the carb and petcock.

>>28462317
I'm currently nobike, looking to buy one. I've ridden a bit before and I4ve been around them all my life tho.

>>28462317
I own one but I ride like absolute shit because I never learned to pedal bike and never had a bike till this year. I don't ride as much as I want and everyone tells me to upgrade than spend money on this. I put maybe 800miles at most for the year on it cause I'm legitimately directionally challenged and ride the same few 30min spots.

Still wondering if i should go gayfe or power cruiser for next bike.
I just want something i can tune/mod.
Damn i want an xlcr or a guzzi.
>>28462317
You need to be a nobike, to become a hasbike.

>>28462434
Id a guzzi

>>28462434
Guzzi. The parts are easier to source and they have a modding scene.
>Tfw having to use guzzi shocks when my rebel gets back
Btw if you want to lower or raise a rear end on a guzzi or honda rebel they use the same eye size of the shocks with very close length but way better options.

>>28462432
the more you ride, the more you'll appreciate the bike. I put much less miles, and desu i wanted to trade in my bike after the first year. But after 2 years, i realized, this is the only kawasaki with SOVL, something only realized when you've spent time and done your own maintenance on it.

I wonder what's easier to sell / which way will I lose less: a brand new bike with 200km on the odo, or the same new bike after its 1kkm service.

After today's ride my right thumb doesn't noticeably hurt, it seems breaking-in gradually diminishes the vibrations.
And my back doesn't hurt as much after the ride since I focused hard on consciously maintaining and changing posture, but it gets tiring quickly.
I can't tell whether a bar riser will fix the ergos enough to make it not suck, but now it sucks hard enough to make me think of selling the bike.
