whats going on with the troll threads? the other one doesnt even have a bike

What's bad about it?

>no weeb shit in OP
I rock with that.

>>28505347
nothing wrong to be honest. as long as the one you get is the yellow one of course

>>28505351
im fine with the anime but we are here about bikes at the end of the day

what is most outrageous is baking a general and then calling out for the hatred of brands baka how does that even make sense

>>28505357
Absolutely

>>28505347
how much?

>>28505334 (OP)
had the chance to work on a kawasaki this week. really nice frames

other thread has NO MAP

Tranny thread

>>28505378
it should be that way actually. the trolls got banned a couple of days ago for posting it. its sad because its just like 2 or 3 guys replying to themselves

>>28505375
The kind that don't crack? Kawi is actually decent brand.

>>28505347
Unironically everything

>>28505385
the bike was actually involved in a collision and the front at some point was gone but the frame was intact lol

>>28505385
when have they ever cracked?

>>28505379
What’s up with the other thread having no bikes posted?

>>28505401
Yamaha R9/R7 frames are cracking anon, Yamaha probably went DEI. Sad.

why doesn't dbt just use tagmap? direct person to person communication and no need to send your personal info into some rando by email

>>28505403
its the guys that got banned last week but i think at this point they should be creating their own bakuon general if they really want it that much ngl

>>28505413
we are not about doxing anons

>>28505407
their 790 looking sexy

>>28505419
Hotwing doxed, Texas anon repeatedly doxed, and plenty plenty more

>>28505429
not anymore. thats why DBT never grows and we will change that

>>28505347
It's disappointing and overpriced. Mostly I'm pissed about them not literally just copying the wide-ratio gearbox aftermarket kit.

anyone going to laguna seca for moto america this weekend?

>>28505347
didnt ryan gosling ride one of these

>>28505432
but it is reliable af

>>28505433
Don’t dox yourself anon, dbt needs to grow

>>28505433
wish i could but i have to wage lol

Is everyone really in here? Is this the real thread?

>>28505347
Seems pretty good, better than the original desu. But you can also get better bikes for the price

>>28505445
you are not lost brother this is the real one. also based gixxer

>>28505439
How would you know it literally just came out

>>28505452
isnt it technically the same as the previous drz?

>>28505456
No it's got EFI and a whole new engine.

does any one here have any experience with high flow fuel pumps? are they just a meme?

>>28505433
please share pics if you can anon also checked

>>28505460
hold on didnt they have EFI before? damn i guess i just didnt know lol

I don’t understand why anyone watches this retard

>>28505432
hot take i think thats the best dual sport from japan at the moment

>>28505482
I liked watching him, he makes fun of gsxrs, I liked watching him hangout with his frens and family. I don't watch him anymore, probably got bored.

>>28505482
i get ryanf9 but i feel like adobo sometimes is just flexing his bikes instead of the actual content

>>28505466
No lol. The DR-Z400 and DR650 are so fucking old that "fully transistorized ignition" instead of POINTS was on the features list.

Table saw.
Wasn't the saw blade.
Hit a knot and the board popped HARD and split/shattered my finger.

Should have just fucked with the bike tonight instead of "being productive" and building frames for new windows in the house

>>28505557
Oh ya, doc just came in and wanted a better look.
Apparently I cooked 2 fingers

>>28505559
ffs anon i really hope you get better thats fucked up

>>28505559
Get better anon kun

>>28505559
First douchebag doc says the socket is obliterated and the orthopedic might want to take the finger off at the knuckle.
I just said "no" and he looked at me like hes never heard that word before.
It's gonna be a long night....

>>28505620
Yeah, get a second opinion.

>>28505620
You can always chop it off later if it's chronic pain after healing. Don't let them fucking just take part of your hand without at least TRYING to fix it. That shit sucks anon. It's always a DIY project too, never at work even.

kek

Had to sell my bike because the job market around here is fucked and I won't accept 50hrs week for a barely livable wage. I have considerable savings so I can outlast this economy until they realize hiring pajeets is not the way to go long term.
Anyway I couldn't justify owning a '''nice''' bike (10yo SV650 worth 3k kek) but I don't want to remain a nobike.
I'll try lowballing boomer bikes that've been sitting for years. Also thought about getting an old CB500 PC26/32 for a thousand eurodollars. Anyone here ever had one? I don't mind having to wrench and I guess it would be fun to have a beater to throw in corners.

I'm thinking about getting a WR155R for city riding. This will be my first dual sport if ever. I'm 5'7 and the seat height is 880mm / 34.6in, am I going to hate it? I'm still looking for a dealer that has it so I can try it out, in the meantime I'm asking here.

I've been shitposting for 20 years

I saw a tiny mouse in my garage 2 days ago and saw it again this morning. It was walking around under my bikes then escaped into the wall. I don't want to do anything because I'm too lazy and don't want to disturb it, but I have also heard stories of the mouse going into your airbox and eating the wires. How common is that really, on bikes that I ride at least every couple of weeks?

>>28505367
Jfc you are such a disgusting little newfaggot redditor it's unreal, we deserve you though.

Lol, I pulled a 3 day ban for NSFW gore pics of my hand. I didn't even consider those pics a big deal, its just life.

Didn't let them take the finger.
Middle knuckle is smashed and no longer a joint.
Have to have it pinned for a couple months and see how it heals.
Doc says tendon is heavily damaged but I can still move it. I dont need strength, just motion. Luckily I typically just use my middle finger for the clutch so still have 2 fingers to hold on.

Hate it.
I'm still going to make the replacement fairings, but I'll just wait until I can find used ones from wrecked bike at this point. Not going to waste the money on a fairing set when my mind is being this fickle.

>>28506451
Looks great. The blue matches the frame color too. I'm watching your every move cause I want a 750 too.

>>28506339
i ride a 34,2in/870mm seat height super motard and i'm 5'5/165cm: you just need to get used to it with a couple of rides and you need to be a little more mindfull of proper foot placement when stopping on inclined roads
it's not a big deal especially since they are so light i don't even scoot with the ass to put the full foot down and use only the tip of one at normal stops.

only thing i don't like is if i have to go on the highway since here the speed limit is 130 Km/h so even on the right lane i'm at at a speed where air becomes a bit of a problem, add a windy day and it's not great with it being so light and tall.

>>28506425
Yeah I want to pet him

>>28506463
The blue will look good for sure. I just don't want it that bad anymore. Not bad enough to pay for a full unpainted set. I'll just wait until I can get some cheap on marketplace or offer up.
It'll be nice to have both sets so I can switch it up if want to. Definitely not painting the OEM fairings.

One interesting thing I discovered though, RH side low sided seem to be more common than LH. Found a lot of used LH side OEM fairings on eBay that were still good from crashes, so I deduced that it probably means that. Though, the fairing that flew off at 160 mph on my buddy's gixxer was the RH side. I think that was more coincidence and freak occurrence than anything though.

>>28506743
never heard of these. I've thought about how cool it'd be to turn my bike into a 90/10 capable bike but it's cheaper to just buy an old DRZ or CRF

>>28506761
this is what I'll probably end up with. I've wanted Road 5/6s for awhile, but wasn't sure if they're still the best all-around for a pavement princess

>>28506765
I want them and I don't even have a pavement princess right now.

How do you get better at turning right? I’ve noticed I’ve got a full inch on my right side but almost nothing on my left, picrel is after going up and down on Angeles Crest
I noticed it while I was doing parking lot practice earlier too, there was a mental block preventing me from leaning in right and keeping my eyes up

>>28506786
practice making turns without modifying throttle. I noticed my slow speed turns (turning right) suffer a bit and have worked on hand placement so as to not blip the throttle when manipulating the handlebars.

>>28506786
>>28506789
What this anon said plus most slow speed right turning difficulty stems from awkward hand position on the throttle. When you're comfortable not using throttle and want to use a bit, modify how you hold your hand. Instead of a standard grip, change to an ice cream cone-like grip.

>>28506533
>getting so old injuries cancel your plans

>>28506808
Yeah. 27 and it's already over for me. At least I got my endgame bike already
>>28506584
>>28506542
True. I think I'll heal up in time for the weekend, and if not just nom some painkillers and send it. Been too long since my last trip
>>28506557
I'm fine but my friend just got sent home from the hospital after a week and a half. Came in late with the burst appendix so it spread a bunch of infectious material around, couldn't do surgery - too risky, antibiotics weren't doing it until they installed a drain for the abscesses. Should be in the clear for now but he's in no condition to ride off the grid for 2 weeks.

my enduristan saddle bags arrived today

>>28506806
also work on not only pushing with your inside hand but pulling a little with your outside hand.

>>28506789
>>28506806
https://streamable.com/aafqsx
I was working from the point of view that throttle hand position was definitely a problem. I noticed right away that because I’m used to having my arms fully extended to reach the bars I was moving my torso when the bar came in rather than my arm. Leaning down towards the bars, keeping my arms bent/loose, and keeping my eyes up helped alleviate this with regard to comfort but it didn’t fix the mental block that came with the terror every time I felt my handlebars full lock right which I never felt when they did the same to the left
I will try this one next time I get a chance thank you anon <3

>>28505347
Everyone who owns one loves it. There are two main complaints
>It's expensive
It's made in Japan, of course it's going to be more expensive than KTM slop. I think it will grow into its price like the old one did
>It's 5 speed
It's a dual sport, you'll barely get above 3rd off road and it can still cruise at 120km/h perfectly fine. 6 speed bikes like the CRF300L and WR250R rev just as hard in 6th as the DRZ does in 5th.
If 5 gears is such a big deal to you then this bike isn't aimed at you. It's a true 60/40 machine, leaning more to off-road than on.

>Oh also check out police bike low speed maneuvers too. The things they can do with big heavy Harleys is incredible.
desu one of my most contrarian opinions are that police rodeos are overrated and unfairly praised. While they are extremely talented and lowspeed maneuvering is a fun class of motorcycle sport I really don't think it translates all that well into actual riding the way people seem to imply it does.
Would be nice to be able to get my slowspeed riding down pat like that though, and enjoying working on my ability to do so.

More of the old British style and I think there are some Jap companies but they don't like sending stuff over seas and Japanese language only.

unironically amazon lol

Is there any better feeling that swapping out riced parts for oem style ones?

>>28507008
Use webike for jap jackets. You end up spending 24~36 usd on shipping though but gear overthere are pretty good but featureless in the sub 300 usd range. I like my komine and rs taichi stuff, but I haven't tried kushitani.

in a bad mood earlier and needed some late-night helmet therapy after a snack at my local PvP zone (waffle house).

>>28506339
you'll be fine, arguably you should look for a slightly more beefy engine because you will want to be able to escape city traffic, but don't let me convince you otherwise. I'm sure sumo anon can give you some tips and tricks to putting the right tires and suspension to make a true supermoto out of it.

>5'7"
you're like two inches taller than I am and I think that bike's seat height is only three inches taller than this one. You'll be fine. I can flat foot this easily.
For manlets like us, weight is always the biggest concern in our first bikes because ~50 lbs isn't a lot to most people but it means almost a third of our body weight to us.

>>28506505
Nice

>>28506557
No, I like that. I hate how fickle my mind is being with the color. Lol. So I'm not changing anything until I can find a cheap set of used fairings.

>>28506844
Looks really good. Took me a lot of practice to git gud with low speed.

Memes aside is quite reliable (at least based on my own experience). Zillabucks are kind of dope too. I got me a tank back for “free” with zillabucks I had left in my account a couple of months ago and guys sent me some stickers too.

The Dainese jacket I want is $900. It isn't fair! /Cry

So what happened? Did the check bounce? Or did the Indian engineering blow up on him while he was riding it?

buy an ad yammie

>>28505347
Literally only the price. I want one. Yeah, it's expensive. But you get a 100% Made In Japan (with love and kando) bike complete with a J-vin. If you don't have a J-vin. I WANT THE YELLOW.

what the fuck are these things on the back of my brake rotor?

we got a smartass over here, next question is who do they belong to? if you get stuck your mom should be able to answer

Today kinda sucked.

>Finish suspension work on parent's truck, discover rear pinion bearing is completely destroyed, have to rebuild rear axle now
>Install new front seal for the AC compressor on my 68 Chrysler, new seal is leaking

Highly annoyed. At least I can ride tomorrow. Motorcycles cure all ailments.

>>28507140
The gps trackers? don't worry about those we'll come get 'em :^)

>>28506943
If you can handle the bike at low speeds, with very fast transitions, precise corner control, a lot of fast inputs, it does help at all speeds. At that point, though, just do supermoto racing/track riding.

Super helpful stuff, thanks br/o/s

>>28506472
>>28506903
>>28507069
This is the best I can afford right now, so I can settle for the engine. Although, I'm planning to just replace my stock tires with roadtires when they get worn out - should that be fine? I don't want to spend to change the sprocket/rims/etc. in the meantime.

Is this reasonable for a 20000km old cb500x?

>>28507407
No, weren't jap bikes supposed to be indestructible

>>28507432
CB500x is made in Thailand. My 3 month old one was burning insane amounts of oil, got rid of that thing ASAP
>>28507407
Try an oil change or even flush first

>>28506973
For me it's pic rel
the most beautiful moto jacket ever made

If it is first gear only that isn't the gearbox that is your chain and sprockets.

question:
What's stopping you from buying an XSR900GP?

me: I have no money

>>28507441
I love Yamagaps and Yamholes

>>28507441
I don't really care for jap bikes or sports bikes.
At least it looks a bit different from the masses, but still not my thing.

Finally swapped the donor in. Wtf, now it’s slowly leaking oil right by this bolt.

Remove bolt, coat in RTV, re torque?

>>28507469
Also, does Ducatis engine coating just suck or what? Donor had half the miles of original block yet so much worse as far as this shite flaking goes

Do you have any sliders or engine guard? It could be from it.

>>28507437
My Cb500X is working fine, I might sell it for other reasons.

>>28507441
I already bought an R9.
IF ONLY YAMAHA WOULD DELIVER IT ALREADY

>Hey bro, let's take two bikes with two different riders for a mild rip in highly controlled environment for a non-timed, non-competetive event, have them bandy some opinions around at the end

>YOOOOOOO, YAMAHA SISTERS WE CAN'T STOP WINNING

KYS fucking tranny. Haven't seen anything yet that proves the R9 is better. Just a bunch of opinions.

>>28507584
The R9 riders pretty decisively beat the Panigale V2 and GSX-R750 riders in Motoamerica Supersport at The Ridge last month.

>>28506322
aren't you a retarded faggot and a tranny though?

>>28507592
>muh fast bike better
Anon, if all you care about is which bike has the best horsepower then you're missing the point of bikes alltogether.

>>28507592
This man looks classy, like it's the 70s all over again with mustaches and Yamaha dominating in America. What a time to be alive

>>28507445
>Phone on ram mount
Too much risk to your primary comms. I keep mine in a tank bag.
> Garmin
I currently run their 65s on mine. Great for wilderness, dogshit for road use, and the batteries go quick

I really just want a waterproof Android phone sized device with only GPS, wifi, and replaceable battery. I'm going to lose phone signal where I'm going anyway, so I don't need connectivity away from a router, and I make due just fine with open source map apps + gps.

>>28507447
This honestly. In high school I drove a delivery van and had to make 5-10 stops all across the city in a 8 hour shift. This was before smartphones and gps and everything. There was a big map in the warehouse and I would plot my route before hand to make an efficient route. I'd memorize the first stop and have a general idea of the complete route. After the first stop id look at my atlas for 2 mins and memorize the second route. Same for the rest. It became really easy.

>>28507604
It's a racebike, and The Ridge is an insanely twisty racetrack. Yes I think winning races is proof. All the bikes in that class had roughly equal horsepower.

>>28507441
It has no appeal to me. The last bikes on my Forever Stable list are a Z900RS, a dualsport, and a Harley.

I always thought the 80s were more popular than the 70s. Music, culture, motorcycles - everything peaked in the 80s. Why are they keep making so many 70's looking motorcycles instead?

>>28507658
Idk but I want my rebel300 back already and Honda should keep making bikes that look like the super four and vtr/vfr lines with their newer bikes. Tired of bugs. Return to 80s-90s half faired sports and standards that look as good as moto guzzis.

>>28506806
What's wrong with me if I'm better turning right

>>28507364
welcome back brother

>>28507374
lmao what are we looking at anon? what happened

>>28507658
The 70s were the peak of Pure Analog. The 80s were where computers and fairings came in, and if you're going to go full fairings just make a modern sportbike. I guess an 80s or 90s retro sportbike would be defined by a chunkier seat+pillion+tail, less punishing ergos, and more interesting paint jobs?

>>28507671
Your bike is gone, retard. Call the cops.

>>28507736

>>28507703

Where did I go?

>helmet shifts just slightly and pushes your hair straight down into your scalp like a bunch of tiny needles instead of just matting it down flat

>>28507441
Cracked frames, ugly styling.

>>28507407
So I went to talk to my mechanic, my chain have around 3000km left and he recomenmends the change of the whole transmission kit, it's usually done around the 22k - 26k range, so it's not that bad, also, I'm this anon >>28377344, so it kind of makes sense I guess

>>28507103
Bruh, the ad money ran out. KTM and Triumph are giving 10y warranty on thier 400s in jeetland. Its funny as fuck, better made Honder, Suzukis and BMWs don't but KTM does?

>>28507777

I don't like kike holes. Onsa is pretty ugly. If it were Hondahole or Suzukihole 100% yes.

>>28507153
You are too smart for /dbt/.

>>28505347
No sixth gear, I like old styling better, all beside the point, I'd buy one if it were sold in my country.

>>28506384
I can't wait until the day I get one and I hope mine growns into a girthy monster.

>>28505334 (OP)
rip sef

How much realistic lean angle do supermotos get? I don’t mean when they drift it, like just full traction through a corner how low can you get before it’s suicide

>>28507824
Sadly alive n well.

>>28507853
Skill level and the hard limit is till the pegs touch the road, so depends on the bike, if you get race pegs, you should be able to get more lean.

>>28507592
By what standard did they win?

>>28507828
Am I though?

>>28507863
noted, really wanna getta supamoto cause going fast and leaning far is and I want the highest level of that fun

Sadly checked

>>28507863
>till the pegs touch
99% of bikes are going to rub before they lose traction. Ive ground factory running boards on harleys on a "standard" turn without even thinking I was even leaning aggressively let alone near any limits.

>>28507905
This one comes with a dick right?

>>28507951
I genuinely wonder what percent of people obsessed with futanari deveolped the fetish after coming to 4chan.
