Are you dwarf maxing or skinny, because if you got the strength you can get the super meteor or the Vulcan.

I'll have a look at these. We have both dealers not too far of a drive from me so i'll try them out in person and see.

>>28492954
Damn bro, what's your inseam? Like the other anons mentioned your best bet is probably one of the smaller metric cruisers. If you need/want more displacement then maybe a rebel 500/1100.

I don't believe you, but the Rebel line was basically designed for tiny women. Though you're really pushing even that, holy shit you're small.
Honestly you may be better off going full Chisame and get a scooter.

>>28493074
Metric cruiser or Honda Grom. You would be an ideal candidate for a Grom CBR250/300 swap but that's $$$ and wrenching. Try the Rebel 300. Buy one used. If you want more in a few years, Rebel 1100 or Harley Sportster 1200.

couldnt even wait for the post limit, thats how desperate you are

Biggest lie I’ve ever been told is that no one cares if you ride, when I go to the same place for lunch twice an employee will almost always recognize me and ask about my bike
Especially so with zoomers and old men, they both really really think it’s the coolest thing ever if you ride.
I used to really struggle with my social skills and being unable to talk to people but now my bike does all the conversation starting for me. /blogpost

this place is so fucking cringe i cant even

>>28492221
Every crash becomes a wrenching lesson

>>28492999
Workout and cruisers are your best bet. Other non cruisers options are Kawasaki Z/ninja 400/500 and MT-03.
I have friend and she is shorter than you and she rides a ninja 650.
Go sit on some bikes and see what your body says is right.

>>28493135
So when you see a woman riding a sport bike are you looking at her ass or her ride?

>>28493074
Watch some female motoyoutubers like Doodle on a Motorcycle, she has some good shortie advise.

it would be interesting to test the limits of the goldwing ngl

>>28493226
At the track they would do open laps for visitors at low speed and guys would bring hawgs, ‘wings, those 1000kg bmw things, you name it. I bet they were having the time of their lives

>>28492954
Realistically you can ride any bike you want, it’s just going to be more effort to learn
If you can get your thigh over it you can flat foot with one foot while the other dangles and your leg controls the bike. This will work for bikes which other people can flat foot on both sides with both legs, like cruisers.
You can also both start and stop from standing,I know of one guy who rides a GS who does this, on and off at every light. You can ride literally any bike you can reach the handlebars this way
It’s not this guy, but this is what he does

Real. It makes you more popular at work too if you commute by bike

>>28493074
Your inseam is only 3” shorter than mine (5’9” man with freakish proportions) and I used to ride an Africa twin, it’s fine.

>>28493196
they can afford em they just dont wanna wrench. i talked 2 into buying sportsters and both keep them at their friends house who actually has tools and bike lifts and shit

realistically speaking can a motorcycle hit 1M miles like truggs and cars can? Which adv bike would be best for trying to achieve this?

>>28493293
All you need is depth of part supply
An 883 sportster that eventually you bore out to 1200 which also has stock parts then bore out again to a robust aftermarket for instance

>>28493293
Regular maintenance on a platform with few know faults.
It's not an adv but I've got a BMW K100 I'd sell you if you are near Missouri.

Let's day that theoretically the most annoying person in the world is on his bike, revving the piss out of it in neutral. If I were to stomp his shift lever down from nuetral to 1st, under high rpm, without him engaging the clutch lever, am I fighting him right then and there, or would I have the benefit of him having to sprint the 10-15 yards back to his original starting position to beat my ass?

>>28493055
Dude, that's like... three whole american dollars.

Oh so it was important for new riders then?

>>28493074
If youre not my girlfren by the end of tomorrow you were like kando, doesnt even real
Get a cr500 and defy reality

>>28493293
Realistically the rider will wear out first so only inherited bikes have a chance.

Is a Kawasaki Ninja 650 a good first bike? I know it's kind of on the high end of displacement for a newbie but there's almost nothing around below 500cc.

>>28493348
The kawi 650 piss twin is pretty tame. If you're good on a bicycle and aren't completely retarded you should be fine. Also look at the Honda 500cc bikes.

>>28493293
Yes it's possible. Yes it's been done. You probably want to use something like a KLR.

The highest mileage bike I've seen in person was actually an ST1300 with 850,000km, and that was like 7 years ago, dudes probably up to like 1.2-1.3 million km by now if he's still riding.

>>28493293

Remains to be seen, but I'll definitely be taking it slow while learning.
>Also look at the Honda 500cc bikes
There don't seem to be many in my area but I'll keep an eye out, thanks.

I want bike, family saying get a wage cage trying to scare me with bad weather and being like everyone else

I do not like the idea of getting a wage cage

Found this in my ZX6R ECU, after the motor blew up.

>>28493371
Bad weather doesn’t matter, you can ride 365 a year
It’s just a little more money in gear and slightly more thinking required, but not much

>>28493371
If you live somewhere with a real winter, a bike can't be your only transportation. It's just a horrible idea to even try. Cops would probably pull you over where I live and chew you out, even if you weren't technically breaking the law. Your family is right. Get a cage first. A bike is basically a toy up north. Now, if you live in the southwest US or something. Discard this. You can daily a bike if you live somewhere warma and sunny.

I can't stop laughing...just what, who the hell even says that???
But hey, Bmw R12, Tracer 9 GT, Scout, and Scrambler Icon are comfy AF, especially the Tracer, feels lighter than the baby Versys.
The RnineT is less comfy, but how bad is it riding a fairingless bike? I feel like the versys windscreen helps so much.

>>28493439
If you live somewhere it snows they know how to clear the roads
You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about
>t. rides year round in the north

>>28493447
You're a total cityfag if they clear the roads fast enough to daily a bike in the winter.

Needs a thorough wash and new tires then it’s time to do some trips

>>28493450

I really regret selling my '06, especially since it had an McCruise put on by the original owner.

>>28493443
The Tracer is nice. Seat on long rids sucks so I had to get a new one. Stock windscreen also isn't good.

>>28493371
So you dont have a bike or car?
Thats a bad place to start.
By that I mean youre unfamiliar with handling a bike AND dealing with suicidal asshats that prowl public roads.

bros... i think the germans won this round...

>>28493371
Dunno where you live but where I'm at we've recently been having weather that's harrowing enough I don't want to drive my car, let alone a bike. I'm talking beautiful sunny day to gale force winds, falling branches and minor flooding within 20 minutes of the first drop of rain. If you live in Cali or something where you only have 1 season it might be a good idea.

>>28493443
some sales fags are really not meant for the position

>>28492999
>I'm skinny, petite. Very little muscle.
I highly recommend something in the light dual sport category like the KLX230S or the XT250.

TUx bros

I took the secondary throttle plate out and it really improved the riding characteristics. I find the throttle a lot more responsive and the engine livelier. It's even easier to rev match because it spins up faster. Before, the engine had a sluggish character compared to my crf300L which I assumed was due to a heavy flywheel but now that odd behavior is completely gone. So if you have one of these, do what I said

Just picked up a KDX50 for the grandkid.

>>28493443
Naked bikes really benefit from even a small windscreen. It's still a lot of wind blast.

>>28493503
Goldwings had that decades ago.

>>28493503
Only 29 years late to the party.

Fuck fuck FUCK $240 for a tow :/
can /dbt/ help me diagnose? I rode about 70 miles with no problem, then the bike lost power. I was able to start it but it dies when any throttle is applied or when idling in 1st (idles in neutral OK). Problem persists regardless of choke.
this is my first bike and it was my first real ride on it. I am thinking its a carburetor or the fuel pump.
2003 suzuki intruder 800 with a relatively unknown history. It did run fine for about 70 miles. Died at low speed, just farting around at 30mph
What do /dbt/ think i should start with to diagnose and repair?

>>28493196
Most zoomers ride surrons which is basically the same thing. Especially YNs

>>28493371
get the bike, you will be cooler than everyone who started with a car and they will respect you more later if you don't listen to them

>>28493534
1988 was 37 years ago.

>>28493538
if it dies with throttle its not getting gas, clean the jets and put a fuel filter on it

>>28493503
maybe you should get a car

>>28493544
The K1600 got reverse in 2017.

>>28493503
I know the wing does this too but I would suck white cock for a k1600

>>28493518
Unironically you need to go to the gym and lift.

im going to the store for a soda run and i want a candy too, what should i get bros

>>28493538
damn anon sorry to hear that

>it dies when any throttle is applied

clean the carb first to see if it improves. if you want to check the pump you can either check the pumps resistance with a multimeter or the fuel pressure with a pressure gauge

>>28493443
As long as you don't ride long distances with lots of bugs a naked shouldn't be a problem. Longer rides would benefit from a big screen though pic related.

>>28493619
Always a happy time when R3 anon shows up.

Have you looked into pando moto? Skin UH03 armored shirt with cooling fabric technology.
It's the way to go my dude. Feels better than riding in a T-shirt honestly, but I'm sweltering in Texas right now and you're chilling in perfect weather.
BUT. Still worth it, I think. Feels better than wearing a jacket and it will make you look extra THINN. (I'm a chunky boy, so I gotta do what I can)

>>28493622
I was looking at pando moto for a while but they’re a bit out of my price range. Which is a shame because I hear their triple A leggings are actually great.
But it’s not really the point, part of the reason to ride with less armor is to remember that I can
I don’t do it often and I never go further than a few miles but when I do it feels amazing, I know what I’m risking
Thanks for the tip tho, cause I do be cooking in my John Doe Kevlars lol

I always tell myself I should wear my gear more often, but then I'll make some excuse for not wanting to and end up in an enduro jacket and boots only. Used to wear it religiously, but now it's only for longer rides. It's just too comfy man

>>28493641
KLX kino

>>28493636
I also have the leggings. I don't wear them when I'm commuting because it's such a pain in the ass, but I wear them any other time.
I really want to put my race leather on again but it's so hot. Almost had a panic attack one day in the leather because I felt like I was vaccum sealed inside of it. Something about the feeling of the leather sticking around my shoulders and arms and upper back just sends me off the deep end.

>I also have the leggings. I don't wear them when I'm commuting because it's such a pain in the ass
I used to be this way but now that I commute during rush hours, I really value daily gear just because the last thing I want is to go and lose my ability to ride because I got cronch while lanesplitting. I know it can't do much for impacts but every little bit counts.
If I lost the ability to ride I feel like I'd have lost my purpose in life

My buddy took tren and destroyed his would be marriage bc he thought his finance at the time was cheating on him with someone from a zumiez store. He came to this conclusion because they visited a zumiez on their vacation in California and she asked the guy if they had a shirt size in small. Apparently he flipped his shit hardcore at the guy when he found “the last small in the store” and had to get escorted out of the mall. They cut their vacation short and he went back home. They had a kid together and everything, and all bc they had a shirt in stock and he thought it would be a good idea to blast tren daily for a month straight.

Brazil is a fucked place. Bro was struggling mentally and physically. His bike ended up exploding and he had no career bc in Brazil if you’re not born into wealth you stay at the bottom. He apparently had a fatal illness too and was in a lot of pain. Bro just lost everything and well couldn’t take the physical and mental pain anymore. Ended up asphyxiated, turned on an oven hooked up to a surgical mask and went to sleep

>>28493756

>>28493756
Damn bro. /dbt/ lore drop right here. That’s actually very sad.

>>28493761
Gaymu, and gn anon have all died since I been here. I’m pretty sure FTR anon had to sell his bike after he got out of jail to pay bail.

>>28493756
Didn’t he have like MS or something?

>>28493756
Brazil, India, and Thailand are all places I will never visit.

>>28493777
Man a year ago there were a bunch of these for sale in my area, and I kinda regret not at least looking at one.
Does it rumble as much as I imagine?

>>28493784
This is haunting.

>>28493788
It does, especially around the mid-rev range. At idle it sounds like its about to shut of because the rpms are in the 800 range and it chugs like a steam locomotive. i've become addicted to the low propeller plane-like sound it does when you short shift it while cruising. The thing has some sort of vaccum that causes it to pop on decel like crazy.

Miss the morning commutes with my bro. He got a different job. We used to cut up in the morning going to work pretty often. So much fun.

I remember when his bike caught fire after the hole in the gas tank. His only way to make money by doing deliveries.

>>28492986
I'm considering a Daytona 660 as my next bike since it's lighter, cheaper, and more trackable than my sport tourers.

the one that makes you happy

>>28493808
As far as new bikes? wait for the next generation of the CBR600 (currently available in europe), otherwise consider a ZX6R once the major recall has been done to them. Used? YAMAHA R6

>>28493808

>>28493795
I used to give him bad advice itt for fun. Maybe it's just because he's dead now but I feel like he got bullied more than he really deserved

>>28493825
I gave him great advice up until I got "What" and "What do you means" from easily googleable answers. Then I started giving him plausible but malicious advice

>>28493709
Ear pro or plugs, it's the duration of sound more than the loudness of it that causes hearing loss.

Buy a bunch of the silicone 26db NRR plugs on Amazon. Keep some oin your jacket pockets. They go in easy and are reusable.

>>28493831
It's pretty difficult to confirm when someone dies just because all we'd ever know is that they stopped posting. Gn was one of the only ones that was easily confirmed that I'm aware of because he got doxxed (or doxxed himself, whatever)

>>28493802
750 hands down. Only caveat I'll give is that I like the 600 for doing twisties and track when you're really pushing it. It's more forgiving than the 750 if you accidentally throttle it too much mid corner.

>>28493831
>Ducati 999 anon
I'm still here bro. It was there another one?

That 900 second captcha was bullshit tho ngl

>>28493849
They held a vigil for him a while ago, and lores not fake. He actually did kill himself.

>>28493808
600rr, very well made machines. The better choice if you plan to ride the public roads more. The 750 is better if you're shorter/ergos fit it and go to the track often enough to justify

i need ftr tranny to come back what the fuck,

I'm going to buy a Street Triple 765 RS.

>>28493841
Oh the same ones I use for outdoor shooting. I was looking at options but I guess I was overthinking it thinking that there was a motorcycle specific thing to use since that seems to be the case for everything. Thanks. Do you think I should go for tethered or non tethered? Seems the tether would be cumbersome with a helmet.
>>28493831
Yep. Firefighters being exposed to the sound of the engine running and the sirens all the time come to mind. It was never a big problem for me while commuting because it isn't that far but if I'm going to be doing these longer rides protecting my hearing is a must.

>>28493865
Same. Eventually...

>>28493848
lol they thought you were dead

Heres a pic of hotwings doggo
>>28493840
forgot about him, theres a couple of more i cant think of off the top of my head.
>>28493843
They may be forgotten by others but their shitposts live in our memories forever.
I always wonder if scootyboi was the motorcyclist that got run over in Seoul a few years ago, that or his female boss locked him in her closet.
>>28493848
Nope just you, as far as i know.
Glad to see you're still here anon.

>>28493100
Real. Just flat foot 1 leg instead, practice shuffling your ass on the bike.

In other news i fixed the fork leak with a cutout, magic. I don’t have a vise so changing seals is a shop job and both dealer and independent shops quote way too much(for my pocket).

>>28492971 (OP)
What happened to gaymu? I vaguely recall gn anon just died in Brazil or sth

>>28493870
I post here pretty often, surprised you thought I was dead. This >>28493863

Good job anon.

>>28493870
>Nope just you, as far as i know.
There was another 999 anon

>>28493126
That's because you probably got a cool bike. If you have a "beginner bike" like me nobody cares, other riders at lights don't even say hello and they actually avoid looking at me
There's a bigger chance for an uberjeet on an ebike to talk to me than other motorcycle rider

>>28493929

>>28494077
DRZ KLR whatever.
My 2 cents.

>>28493771

I will hate myself if I get this one, but I don't see a better sumo than this RRRREEEEEEEE

>>28494178
but what is "better"? Are you riding a spec sheet or are you riding a bike? Try others as well even if they look "worse" on paper, they might just feel better.

DRZ4S? Whatever the latest iteration of latest DRZ400 SM is. Try that.

>>28493811
Unironically the best answer.

Didn't know Transalp, T7, F850GS and Vstronk-800 were so economical, It's better than my Honda Jazz by quite a lot so that a win. Also, not horribly worse than G310. I see this a complete win, I want one of these 'kus as my next baik.

>>28493598
You should kys. Disgusting.

>>28494249
That's the best I normally get on my jazz, still good not as good as I thought. Stop tempting me to make bad financial decisions!

>>28494251

>>28494249
>geo metro
Related to suzuki swift. Anon, even the new swifts will mog your F850GS in the highway, I'm sure. If you try hard enough, you should be able to get 51 US mpgs in a brand new swift. Suzukis are something else, and they run forever.

>>28494245
Ducati you mean? Too loud + fuelling a bit fucked up, feels like a carbed bike in a bad way when you have to maintain constant speed.
>>28494232
>>28494189
> even if they look "worse" on paper, they might just feel better.
Yes, I want to try new 'zuki when it becomes available here, but I already have a 5-speed 38hp thumper. I'll be pleasantly surprised if new drz would feel nicer than this gaytm, but I don't expect that'd be the case.

Someone installed one of these but for noise near a neighborhood on my commute.
It became a leaderboard and the community that put it up ended up taking it down a week later.

>>28494377
We have these too but over a certain threshold over the speed limit it just shows a warning sign instead so people didnt clock themselves doing stupid speeds.

>>28494388
Ours started flashing reds and blues over a certain speed which got speeders to panic brake.

>>28494419
Over a certain displacement size you can't rev low enough to compensate. 1250-1300cc is about the limit.

>>28494461
Oh I've long since accepted that trying to ride an 1100cc cruiser efficiently isn't gonna happen, especially with my fat ass. I'm just happy that she's not running dangerously rich anymore; I used to get about 80 miles before having to flick over to the reserve.

>>28494480
why do all enduro 2 smokers cost a lot

>>28494377
>>28494388
>>28494457
We have the red&blues on ours. Its on a trailer and the local.cop moves it to different roads coming into town.
Ive taken my R/C cars to it when its in front of the police station (best piece of asphalt and its a 25 zone with light traffic so I can get my car if I crash) and clocked my cars to verify upgrades have increased speed.
48mph is my max on a 1/10 scale, 32mph on a 1/16 (thats squirelly as fuck at thise speeds) for those that are curious.

>>28494493
Oh right I keep forgetting how heavy cruisers are. If I'm crooooozing below 2500rpm on a 1250RS I can get close to 50mpg, and that includes up most hills.

>>28493230
>Is it true that 125 cc dirt bikes can be easily converted to well over 15 hp?
yes, 180cc Cylinder kits are very common

>>28493293
I think something tuned for mileage like the honda nc 750 would be able to pull it off.
