Yeah right

So tell us about her, anon. What was the bike that never let you down, but you wanted something newer, faster, or nicer, only to realize later that you never should have let her go.

Shit like this reminds of having an office job where I had four or five different pointless meetings over the course of the day, and everyone had to pipe up for no reason at all with inconsequential input.

This is backwards but fits surprisingly well.

>>28489874

>>28489761
Speaking of.
Damage to the GS500 was worse than I initially thought.
Oilpan got damaged and and the left header is destroyed.
Part of one of the oil pan bolts is broken and stuck inside the block.
So that's going to be fun.

Also the front wheel is dented and no longer holds air.

>>28489874
wrong

>MAN THESE PEOPLE TOOK MY KIDS FROM ME THEN THEY FROZE MY BANK ACCOUNT

>>28489881
that oil pan is toast lol replace that thing and did you hit a pothole? the rim could be bent

>>28489878
I scored a front fairing off some chinkshit quad to match the EX300 tank.

>>28489889
Slid out and into a curb. I don't know if the bike caught on something while sliding or what, but it wrecked a lot of stuff.
I can't fix anything till I get paid anyways.
>the rim could be bent
Part of the lip is bent completely outwards.
I don't know if hitting it with a sledgehammer is a real solution yet or not

>>28489884
So here's the issue.
I respect that bike.
Its a beautiful piece of history.
I would rather throw my bride on the back of that and ride away from our wedding instead of a limo.
But I'd never own one as anything more than a collection piece.

A CBR250RR will smoke the shit out of it in any competition or measurable metric.
So what's the point?
Because its "our heritage"?
So now they should be entombed in some boomer tier "I know what I got" logic and left to rot in a garage? Or sold to some man-bun hipster faggot to ride to Starbucks on saturday morning (?)

>>28489898
Rims fucked.
A professional MIGHT be able to fix it with some heat and love but if you go wacking on it it will only cause more damage that theres no coming back from.

Ebay is your friend.

>>28489885

>>28489911
Ive welded a magnesium rim.
I didn't have a gas chamber, I did it with a vent plate.
My asshole was so tight that light could not escape. Pretty sure that afternoon took 2 years off of my life (stress kills).
-2/10 will never do again

>>28489917

>>28489848
It was a bugeye zuma clone with off-road tires. I could have given it a proper death off a sweet jump but I sold it to my co worker instead.

I don't see a reason why I shouldn't pick one of these up and strap it to my XR. even just zip tied for trips.
https://files.catbox.moe/pr69w3.mp4

>>28489898
that sucks, are you ok?

This is for sure the move. Can't believe I found rattle can that's a near exact match.
If I can't nail down a RH side main fairing, I'll end buying a set of temu fairings to get the four pieces that I need.

>>28489932
unfuckingbelievable bro... it actually WAS the right color

>>28489932
But why
As Yamaha shill in the Yamaha day-thread I have to admit OG Suzuki color scheme is neat

>>28489908
>>28489911
>>28489917
Okay so basically it's not worth it and I should just get a new one, got it.
As for the header, it's taco'd and makes the bike only run on 1 cylinder.

The stock exhaust is 1 piece from header to muffler.
Could I take an angle grinder and chop out the broken part, then get someone to weld a new piece in? Or would that be stupid expensive or something?

Or, could I do pic rel and nigger rig it like a 3rd worlder?

A new exhaust would cost $300+ after shipping.

>>28489930
Yeah I'm fine.
Would've been better if I just wore my gloves, but instead I'm retarded.
Just got some road rash on my hands and joints, bruised ass, etc.

>>28489936
Very surprising
The ONLY difference is there is a subtle metallic in the factory paint, but it's close enough.

>>28489943
I want the bike to be darker and the white looks odd to me in that color scheme. I'm keeping the OEM fairing, though. Would be dumb to paint over them.

>>28489946
>Could I take an angle grinder and chop out the broken part, then get someone to weld a new piece in? Or would that be stupid expensive or something?
>Or, could I do pic rel and nigger rig it like a 3rd worlder
Yes.
Here's some custom Ferrari 430 Scuderia headers.
Notice the welds.
Clamps aren't a big deal either.
As long as it can flow youre good.

>>28489953
Thanks for the header porn.
If the flex pipe is fine for a cheap temp solution I can get some stainless headers and a supertrapp muffler down the line.

>>28489953
I remember an episode of roadkill garage where they bashed some headers in to make them fit and bashed them in too far then had to drill a couple holes, heat it red hot with an acetylene torch and used a 90 degree hook to pull the pipe back out. Then welded up the holes.

>but muh forged aluminum
Lmao anything can be welded

>>28489964
Lmao I can see their faces in my head realizing what they've done.

>>28489953
take it to a community College welding class

>left cover laying on bike, went inside to let it cool down
>walk out to put cover on
>someone put it halfway on
Okay, I get that they were probably trying to be nice. Guessing it's one of the immigrants.
But man, this has to be the most anxiety-inducing vehicle to own.

>>28489987
It probably blew away, and someone just hanged it back on.

What year Katana is this?

>>28489999

Love it

>>28489932
hi texas anon, I've come to inform you that you really need to trailer your shit to Cali at some point.
Did ACH this weekend and this road seems like it would be exactly your speed. Whole bunch of really long nice highway sweepers that are perfect for proper supersports, tight enough that you don't have to be doing 100+ to have fun but not so tight that you have to be constantly dropping 2 gears for every other turn
https://youtu.be/JiY2h8F4pWs?t=92
stamped for when the action starts

BMW get

>>28490001
fuck

>>28489995
Holy coomobile
I swear the only reason those Katanas get hate is because they came in that shitty red color that sunfaded after like 1 year that makes them look ugly as sin.
Paint them well and keep the headlights from getting foggy and they look hot.

No idea the exact year, but those more bubbly "GSX-F" Katana 750's went from '98 to '05 I believe.
I don't know if the 600 was made for a different period of time than the 750 or what.
Also depends where you live I guess.

Absolutely worth it, granted some can be very unforgiving to mistakes but the roads are kept in really really nice quality for being used so regularly
>Can't you rent bikes? I bet I could rent a gsxr600. Wonder how expensive it would be vs trailering.
You can, and fairly cheaply too. But (speaking from no experience) it's probably similar to airbnb where the owners are annoying and try to nickel n dime you for bullshit.
>>28490076
>/dbt/ does socal supermoto + canyons redux?
idk what even you're referring to but I'm actually saving up for a lesson day for my bday in february, really really wanna go there as soon as i can. Would love some proper coaching and a chance for a track day that I can afford

You might not like it but this is what peak performance looks like

>>28490080
I don't know why aftermarket fairing kits aren't all the rage right now.
they should be mass produced and on every hood bike in 2025

They should be as common as slip on mufflers

>>28490089
It was before your time. A prominent socal anon fucking launched himself through a roundabout shortly beforehand on a clapped gixxer 1000 and that kind of hung a bad cloud over the whole thing.

>>28490091
Germans are always tards, when they make something that works and the people love it, they hate it.

That's just the stock photo from delkevic. My can will be slightly longer than the picture at 14". It's one of only two exhaust options that clear the sw motech center stand. The stock exhaust is such a fucking sewing machine, it really made me fall out of love with the bike for a while.

>>28490138
I never understood the sewing machine insult when it comes to PTwins.
PTwins SHOULD sounds like sewing machines.
Boring power delivery, practical, commuter, quiet, polite, happy.
"Aggressive" PTwins like a nerdy kid shooting up a school.

This is how a PTwin should sound

Can you guys help me? Got a leak in this fuel line hose here, a 2002 Vulcan 500. I can not figure out why it's leaking. I replaced the hose and the fuel filter but it still leaks. If the gas is on it drips out slowly. If the bike is actually turned on and you use the throttle it leaks a lot in a flow. I had to replace them both since the tube was old and got ripped (gf dropped it, it's her bike) and the filter plastic was cracked. Previously it did not leak at all, the fuel filter there is the same one as the old one. The hose is on there tight as fuck on all ends even without any zip ties but I tried some and it didn't help either way. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to fix it? It can be turned on and runs normally but does leak pretty steadily.

>>28490196

>>28490205
And congrats, now it makes 5 less horsepower than it did because he clearly did not tune the bike for it.

>>28490212
actually it makes way less cause thats the single cylinder f650gs

>>28490200
Get a service manual and work your way backwards towards the fuel tank.
Probably a seal somewhere at the tank and it just drips down.

>>28490205
Yeah this guy seems like he knows about bikes

>>28490233
well its the single cylinder bmw those just stall anyway

>>28490236
That may be true, but I guarantee it totally fucked up his back pressure making the bike run more lean than usual losing him about 8-10hp.
I'll bet anything nothing changed with the bike after that, and that he just subconsciously gives more throttle with a slower clutch release while taking off.

https://youtu.be/pATI02P7MZs
This sounds like its gonna blow up lmao

>>28490242
It sounds like it's idling way too high, but singles always sound like they're idling too high for me.
I don't know if it's because of vacuum leaks or if they just crank up the idle speed as a bandaid solution for shitty idling or what.

>>28490248
well that one's a twin

>>28490252
Then the idle is for sure too high. My PTwin can idle at like 700rpm

>>28490231
>>28490242
>>28490252
Why did they make a twin and single of the same bike

>>28490072
>I really want to make a trip out to California
STFB (stay the fuck back)

>The F650GS typically idles at a steady 1500-1700 RPM
What a piece of shit

>>28490258
because Germans are retarded.
then they renamed the 800 twin and resumed production of the single under the g650gs name

>>28490260
Of course

>>28490196
The Yamaha muffler design is particularly egregious. I bought the bike with a Yoshimura and went back to stock for the centerstand + being a good roommate. I miss the louder, traditional glass pack muffler every single day. Now I'll have it back.

>>28490284
Just make sure to tune it to the bike.
I've always loved Supetrapps because on carbed bike I can just adjust plates to make it easier to tune.
I guess on efi bikes they just adjust timing and fuel delivery?

>>28490287
Most modern bikes have a hard limit to how much they can compensate AFR (untuned). The CP2 bikes are included in this. I bought an extra-restrictive baffle to quiet it a little + reduce exhaust flow, and the bike has the el cheapo method of getting more fuel, which is an air temperature sensor trickery device that basically makes the bike think it's always winter time and thus will add about 8% more fuel on average (some nerd on YouTube actually did the math/testing). It'll run fine based on my time with the yoshi pipe, I'll just actually repack the muffler religiously every second or third oil change now that it's easier to get at. This is a lot closer to the size that I ordered, this dude bought the giant 18" muffler.

>>28490299
>>28490287
I will own an aircooled carbed dirtbike with a supertrapp at least once in my life, such a cool idea for a muffler.

It needed tires, the first valve service, and an obd scanner +motoscan to get it to stop freaking out about the brake light.
It's a common thing the US to write up the bill of sale/title transfer with an amount that is often less than half the cash that changed hands, especially in states with high taxes.

Texas outright banned lane splitting 2 years ago, lmao. Fucking recucklic of Texas that I live in.
Abbott did some based things, though. Banned red light camera, vetod the THC ban, banned abortion.
He also did gay shit like age verification for porn sites, and refuses to acknowledge or say anything about the coward police at Uvalde, which is the biggest offense in my opinion.

I still lane split and I'm not forgetting about Uvalde, or the SCOTUS ruling of "no duty to protect"....EVER.

>>28490704

I overtook two cars by crossing the double yellow in the twisties not knowing the motorcycle behind me was actually a pack of 30 motorcycle cops. Cop in the front flashes his lights at me, stopped next to me in the middle of the road and told me not to do that again and that was it lol.

Nope. Lol. Pretty gay. If it's heavy traffic, cops won't light you up for it though, they understand.

>>28490750
Yeah, it's kinda 50/50 with him though, honestly. He did some based things, but also some gay things. I'm not too upset about the porn age verification thing. Only thing it worries me about is it opening up the legal argument for identity verification on other things. But they've had that forever on controlled items over the Internet and technically porn is a controlled item if you were to go to a store for physical media, so I don't think it will go too far.

>>28490781
From what I've seen a lot of them are actually rolling back on how strict they are with the age verification. PH used to require an account, but now it just has a pop-up "are you sure you're an adult?" button and after that you're in. It's very similar to what you expect if you visit, say, a brewery's website.

Banning red light cameras was gay? Vetoing the THC ban was gay?
Banning abortion I understand there is a debate on.
I'm in favor of banning abortion, but not for the reason you probably assume. I understand that it's taking a life, and I recognize that it's wrong. However I'm not a complete moralfag and recognize that now there's a whole generation of black criminals who won't be getting aborted, and that's a bad thing as well.
Ultimately, I have a problem with letting women make that decision, and I'm generally in favor of anything that removes major decision making privileges from women. Especially the right to vote. That shit need to fucking GO .

I have a different U-shaped bag (more aggressively u-shaped tho) and it's a mixed bag in terms of usability. it's nice that it "sticks" in place a little better when full but it's really hard to get things into/out of the bottom U parts, and things don't really like staying there either.

Used 100%, no matter what you get.
You'll outgrow it and sell it within a year. If you dont thrash it too hard you can sell it for what you paid for it.
Buy new and youre out $5k+ that could have gone into your forever bike.

Females really be like that sometimes. How long have you been with her? Hopefully not long, because you should just bail at this point.
Running with a backpack really is not a good idea and you made the right call, honestly.

It's best to start on a 600 for track, but if it's your only bike, it's your only bike. Just be careful. That's an expensive bike to total on the track.

nobody buys sportstourers because they can get a sports bike, or a tourer, that doesnt compromise on either aspect

the sportstoureres left in production are in small batches, and the ones on the second hand market are either failed products (like the HD PanAm) or 20 year old bikes with 4million miles on them

I'm going to guess most people selling dual sports are older guys deciding to upgrade to a more road oriented bike, and the guys selling sports bikes are probably younger. While it won't always be the case, consider which of those two groups was more likely to ride conservatively, high/low side on asphalt, and follow the maintenance schedule on their bike.

Or maybe sport bikes just depreciate a fuck load faster and the old dudes are selling way over blue book value because "they know what they got".

>>28491608
