/adventure/

How much can one expect to pay for a tune for my full header exhaust replacement? I have seen people talk about vcyclenut but I am in Canada and locally got a price of $700 CAD (500 USD) for a dyno and tune/remap for removing any restrictions on the system and mapping the proper air and fuel for the new exhaust and a hi-flow air filter. Does this seem like a rip off? Never done it before so not sure what to expect to pay.

>>28602550
if you have your own laptop, you can do it for free
idk about prices in canadia, but 500usd seems a lot
i got a full flash in the UK for like 140

>>28602550
What bike?
If Two Wheel Dyno Works offers a mail in ECU tune for your bike, do that. It's the best way to go. They've done 3 of my bikes now.

Can someone please explain to me why the DR starts without the choke (with some effort)
But dies if you try to apply the choke, and will not start with the choke pulled on.

>>28602552
I’ll be honest, I just got this bike and I’m not looking to fuck something up by trying to do it myself. I’m sure it’s not too difficult with research but I’d rather pay the labour to let the guys who do it for a living take care of it.
>>28602555
Tracer 9. Did you mail them yours? Or go in person. I’ve been worrisome of the whole mail-in idea.

>>28602558
Fuel air mixture is off?

Finally got my dad a Road King Police at auction. Gonna go pick it up in Columbia MO next week. Probably just ride the bitch back because the station told me it had a service and new tires put on it before it was decommissioned 6 months ago. 80k miles on it so another 450 or so won't matter. It's going to be his retirement/Christmas present. He'll get it around Thanksgiving.
Might need to get a new seat so my mom can ride on the back. Anyone know how to convert those weird springer seats to regular ones? Is it just removing that spring and seat to bolt on a regular one?

>>28602570
>Is it just removing that spring and seat to bolt on a regular one?
Probably.

>>28602569
Must be eh.
Might explain the thing shitting itself when the main jet comes into action as well.
Too rich maybe.

>>28602566
>I’d rather pay the labour to let the guys who do it for a living take care of it.
good man

Check out the new BMW concept, pretty cool right? Now I can be a cager too!

>>28602575
Too rich.
Take out air screw a bit?

I bet he looks so cute on his cute little bike

>>28602558
>>28602575
You're running rich. Air filter could be clogged. If at altitude, lean the fuck out of the mixture screw so you can at least get it to idle. Don't spend too much time bogging it or you'll be fouling spark plugs.

did they program the robot to turn left to right?

>>28602610
Spooky

>>28602621
Black widow with a 300mm can. For the style of the bike it fits really nicely instead of the typical shorty pipe. It’s pretty loud even with the bigger muffler but I also don’t have the baffle in. Sure as hell beats paying literally double for an akrapovic

>>28602637
>it took a robot 200million dollars and 10 years of research to be 40 seconds slower than rossi

im 30kg overweight and could get 20 seconds off rossi on a 400cc cruiser

>>28602642
>Sure as hell beats paying literally double for an akrapovic
thats where youre wrong kiddo
over its lifetime, the akra will save you double its worth in fuel costs (and generally sounds way cooler(imo))

>>28602637
God damn Yamaha is ran by a bunch of retarded faggots, god knows how many millions of dollars they paid grown men to make these faggot gizmos, meanwhile every single bike Is a cp2 lmao

>>28602637
>hurrdurr im a retarded nip
200 billion yen for this

>>28602646
>the akra will save you double its worth in fuel costs
Kekd, you have never removed a fastener in your entire life

>>28602653
i removed your mothers bra fastener last night so i could get a look at HER 300mm can

>>28602592
I've always wondered, is it really an air screw, or is it a fuel screw?
It has a Mikuni BST33 carburetor (which all the forums seems to hate) but I refuse to just buy a better carb until I conquer tuning the stock carb at least.
>lean the fuck out of the mixture screw so you can at least get it to idle
It idles okay, but it won't idle or even start with choke (no matter how many kicks). It ONLY kickstart with the choke off.
I've got like 10 spark plugs for this thing because it happens to use the same plugs as my GS500 lmao.

The air filter thing might be noteworthy. It's not bad, but it's not clean. Maybe I'll open it up a little and see if it runs different.
It doesn't rev up currently. Or rather, it only revs up a couple thousand RPM, presumably only on the idle/pilot

>>28602646
I needed the extra money for a tune and a nice helmet replacement regardless. I can agree akra has the best product overall but couldn't justify the price difference.
>>28602656
kek

>>28602637
what the FRICK

im NOT happy about this, like yea its more powerful than 600cc 'ku but i still dont like it, it should be like 150hp is freaking 900cc

will this buff out?

>>28602637
I'm so happy my future robowife will be able to ride motorcycles with me

>>28602668
So it reached 1996 600cc i4 performance level

>>28602673
even with hail mary tune it cant beat r6, yamaha r6 has the most kando in it
https://youtube.com/shorts/5-0Kg_LfFo0?si=a5sfSacLZ9YXs-D-

>>28602668
experience riders will get an r1 (or another brand)

new riders dont want "sissy shit" like an r3 or r6
but they cant actually afford the insurance or upkeep of a bigboy bike
so theyve made some autistic middleground to keep newfags happy, while also placating the insurance companies AND environmental agencies

you'd unironically be better off buying a 636 if you want power
at every powerband and range, its getting mogged by 10 year old KwakTech

I knew they were gonna be shit from the day they announced them
but boy did I NEVER expect it to be THIS bad
r7s are gonna be a coveted for the next few years amongst this autistic niche market demo who demand a yammerhar but are too chickshit(or poor) to get an R1

>>28602676
>r7s
r6's*

>>28602668
Wow I thought the mt09 made more not to mention the r9.
Love my mt07 though

>>28602676

>>28602675
>Kando
Here's some kando.
https://youtu.be/7Eyz8Wax_18

>>28602676
you know what I don't like modern bikes, but I would maybe get an r7 IF it took advantage of the smaller engine made to be a smaller bike, and without all the fag gizmos and sensors
but it's a tall pig fat bike
same with the aprilia rs 660/ 457, they are just too big and heavy

>>28602657

>>28602680
This is wheel horsepower and not crank hp, which is advertised.

>>28602657
Take the air filter off and see if it still bogs.

klx300 or crf300l if I want something that is minimal maintenance, super reliable, and good offroad?

>>28602735
I got the klx since most comparisons say the suspension is better, otherwise they feel the same. dealer was more local as well, so go with whatever you like.

I was supposed to be dead by now, bros. Somehow I lived and stumbled into a good woman. Guess I have to live life now. I'll live for all of the fallen.

Kando are real
Helmets isnt expire
Scooters do motorcycle

Simple as.

My helmet is 5 years, 2 days, 1 hour, 27 minutes, and 38 seconds old. Is it okay to use still?

>>28602759

He was a faggot, but he was OUR faggot

>>28602762
Nah fuck that gay fuckwit
I haven't been here in like 2 years, what happened to him and r6 and all the regulars from a few years back?

>>28602765
uhhh, I don't know. I haven't been here often enough. I assume gaymo got killed by the police or something.
And I think R6 is still around.

>>28602742
Was she a virgin at least?

>>28602774
Yes she was.

>>28602765
I don't know but there are twinks now

>>28602783
Godbless

>>28602788
I'm waiting for Risitas Sperg to spawn up and have a crash out now lmao
Mention someone getting a virgin gf and just can't handle it.

>>28602770
>I think R6 is still around.
No way
Paging r6

>>28602797
What is he jealous or something?
Love is real brehs, not much else to say.

>>28602805
He's been mad since tzr twink left for his portsmouth vacations with his bf and never came back

>>28602805
I'm not sure. He'll randomly crash out over me when I'm not even in the thread, just schizophrenically repeating slogans to himself. Lol. Totally mind broken.
Some have said that the Risitas Sperg is actually R6 with split personality disorder, but I don't really believe that.

>>28602801
He was here earlier

lol moore mafia got me laughing at yamaha

gotta jailbreak the ole ball and chain

>>28602735
I have had 4 hondas, most of my friends had mostly hondas, the one yamaha blew up. So I am partial to honda. Offroad? You have to know what type of offroad, light, steep trails, deep sand, woods, desert? It all matters. If you are any good suspension will really help, but its best if you learn how to do it yourself it can get expensive if you keep paying someone for suspension service. with practice and setup you can rip a big heavy bike to do a lot, let bike do the workhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPLJn3IygAg

>>28602907
nigger are you moving houses or what is this

>>28602910
Just camping, with pretty minimal gear, smallest tent/bag/pad I could get without spending thousands on the setup plus critical repair stuff.

The mess in the background IS from moving recently though.

>>28602675
We both know GSXR750 is better.

>>28602783

>>28602919
for how long?

bike's been in the shop since saturday and i can't pick it up til saturday. i miss it ;_;

>>28602934
Just a couple of nights. It's the tent, sleeping bag, and pad taking up all the space. Not a whole lot I can do without spending $500+ on each of them and this GL bag is only 39l in an awkward shape so it's tough. I did just think of a different way to pack it that might be better though.

Massive tax reduction for everything in India. Motorcycles below 350cc from 28 to 18%. There is a further 1% decrease I think, but not sure yet, for above 350cc it's increased from 28% to 40%. Here also, we should see a further reduction in price by 15% I think. It's not clear yet. It's good times ahead, I can feel it.

What happens if you trade in a bike thats worth more than what you are buying? Does the dealer just pocket the extra or what?

>>28602942
Brother, if the pad is cheap and big strap it to the outside. Same goes with the tent.

>>28602742
>Had to turn down a woman today
Being a handsome sperg is literal hell. Its for the best. If I went on a date she would have just found me dull and boring.

>Peak power at WOT at 10,000rpm is the only measure engine metric.
Don't forget this was an engine designed for a street naked. Peak hp is largely dictated by how much air the engine can swallow and exhale in a given unit of time and how hard it compresses air fuel mixture. Being a 12v engine it'll always be at a disadvantage to a 16v unit of the same cc. But at every rpm below peak power and the R9 will be pulling harder. Just compare the cb650 and mt07 here and it's the same story.
Still. I didn't like yam's triple when I rode it for lacking any character.
All things considered I don't think cc to cc comparisons are as good as weight lbs & purchase price. This is where Suzuki's 1000cc gsxs1000 steamrolls the 900cc naked class

>>28602740
KLX suspension is better and it's a more lively feeling bike, which is surprising. The klx300 suspension is currently the exact same as the klx300r, which is a true trail bike, though it's obviously tuned differently. There's a handful of other differences between the 300 and 300r, but the 300 (street legal version) is still superior to the crf300l for offroad use.

I personally got the 300r because I can legally ride OHVs anywhere that isn't a highway in my county, and the cops don't care as long as you aren't speeding. They understand you don't have a speedometer so they just expect you to be respectful and try to come close to speed limits, as well as follow traffic flow.
>>28602886
I know there's a massive difference here, but I actually find the klx300r easier to ride than smaller bikes in harsh offroad terrain now that I've ridden it so much. I used to want a lower sitting bike, but the real dirt bike gearing and grippy offroad tires make it handle much better, for me, than any smaller or easier to handle dual sport where it matters. This is mostly relevant for like "mild" hill climbs and steep ledges where I'm more than happy sending my 300r, but I back off or dump a klx140rl or xt250.

My new baiku

>>28603270
Almost unbelievable that one can survive a hit like that. Makes you want to wear a neck brace. Cripes.

>>28603272
Boomer cruiser is not my style anon, lower suspension travel can only be so comfy. Longer travel suspension is comfy for me. Cruisers give me tailbone pain. I might be more of a monke.

**I** know theyre not sissy bikes (well r3 is becuase of r3 anon) but the avg biketok retard thinks anything below a 1000cc is a hair dryer and if youre bike isnt covered in carbon it aint shit


>>28602685
>they are just too big and heavy
because everything is geared around and designed based off of top end race bikes
the only place trickledown actually works is in vehicle design, where consumer products are downstream of motorsports. It leads to great innovations like cars actually having safety features, and bikes having ABS that doesnt suck (too much) cock

garage I go to hasnt ever pulled a single person for things like that on MOT
what the insurance company doenst know, they cant charge you for - just remember to reset it to factory if you sell it, and inform the new owner that its flashed (or make it some dealerships problem)

do you take your helmet into cafes with you?

Went dual sporting on a powerline trail with a friend yesterday in PA and now they're trying to charge us with criminal trespass because some boomer fuck sitting up in his home alone noticed us having harmless fun and reported us and some bored cop who just sits around that area all day got the call and started following us.

So quad lock seems to be the top tier choice for smartphone mount, but how reliable are the non-case mounts?
I want to use my phone for GPS but since I don't have a pixel, iPhone or Samsung I'm afraid the phone will fall

>>28603422
It would be really difficult to nail you under this law. The defense in 3503(c) is pretty easy to argue, and the charges listed in a, b1, and b3 obviously don’t apply. It’s not clear the b2 charges apply, and the knowing requirement is always a difficult burden for a prosecutor. Probably just wanted to scare you into not doing it again.
Although if you DID do it again, now the knowing requirement is pretty easy to prove.

>>28603513
>how reliable are the non-case mounts?
They work fine, I used one for about a year before I got a different phone with a case. The non case mount just sticks on whatever phone you have, it's not going anywhere.

It is whatever you want it to be ;^)

so a couple of months ago I finally got the last license I needed to drive my all time fav bike, the original hornet
I got the first refresh one, with the 18 inches front wheel
after riding it for these past months I decided to upgrade the front suspension, I simply replaced the springs and it's been night and day, I can't believe how much it's improved in any kind of driving
what should I upgrade next?
I'm fine with the exhaust, I was looking at the brakes steering
should I bother with a steering dampener?

>>28602907
Ah, so you're the one that was posting his Kelty on /out/ then, well I'm the one who got the Naturehike Cloud Up 2 Pro, I'm supposed to get it delivered around this week, so I'll give a short review about it, but considering its less than 18in in length packed, I bet it will be the Kino pick for anyone who wants to motocamp, since volume for us is a bitch more than weight itself.

Have fun on your trip and bring extra socks with you!

>>28602985
The tent is probably the one I'd strap outside if I had to. Trying to avoid that and keep the weight more forward and low though. I think I've got everything fitting in the bag except clothes and food though, and those will go in my backpack.

>>28603008
I really do anyway, I need something that can cruise at 80 and do at least 150mi between gas stops.

>>28603535
Yeah and hopefully it should at least minimize the impact on handling. I've never had weight on the back of the bike so I'm pretty sketched about it but I keep reminding myself that it's way less weight and lower down than a pillion would be.

>>28603576
Man that looks sketch to ride.

Motorcycling is the only thing keeping me from an heroing at this point

>>28603664
It should be mr.Jesus anon

>>28603668
incredible post bud, I hope anon(s) finds God's light

>>28603600
Yeah. The Kelty is even shorter at 16" so it's very moto-friendly as well, but the bulk of the fabric parts still fills up a whole "leg" of my saddlebag, even with them in a compression sack. I'll probably do a review on my stuff too, maybe I'll bring a real camera so I can get better photos than my phone can do.

>>28603668
It should be but I’m living through what Saint John of the cross called a dark night of the soul. Saint Mother Theresa wrote how she felt this way for decades, utter darkness - famously she says punctuated by hope when Saint Pope John Paul II was elected to the pontificate.
My participation at mass feels hollow, my prayers feel ignored, I can’t bring myself to spend time with His Word.
So right now it’s motorcycling.

every time I see those years, I have to take it all in.

Got a puncture in my year old rear tire and the guy that patched it said keep it below 80. Debating if I should ride it and just be conservative and get some more life out of the tire or just take the L and buy a new tire now.

>>28603764
give it a proper sendoff with a burnout, then get a new one

>>28603764
Also the tire is barely a year old. Plenty of tread left.

Anon, Jesus was crucified once and for all, not every eucharist
You have to come out of babylon and egypt, the vatican and catholicism are a false christianity; look at every depiction of their dead Jesus inside a church, He is wrongfully pierced through the palms and as dying in every single one
He was pierced through the wrist bones, lest you break one of His bones and violate the prophecy, and He is the God of the Living
You will see the Scars, come the day of
And be of good cheer, He overcame the world; the euphrates river is drying, its happening in our lifetimes

Dont worry we have 1000 years to reconcile and forgive and learn properly, everybody is right when everybody is wrong kind of multiplication through division

>How to prevent
chain, disclock, datatag, airtag, beacon

Have signs on it that say it's armed and ready to explode if stolen.
More sane method is just have a very loud alarm and an airtag.

>>28603799
Disc lock and a gun on you is all you need.

Disc lock for parked, gun for jackings.
Just keep in mind that neither will stop 2 dudes and a pickup truck from taking your shit if they REALLY want it / casing you out.

Bike bros, Ive been riding a honda 250 for the past 4 months and Ive already started thinking about my next bike. And from all the reading Ive done and listening to the guys I sometimes ride with, an SV650 from 2003-2008 would probably be my choice. Torque and pick up and go to make hills a breeze at 65mph, and able to haul camping supplies on the back or a girl as well. It just looks good as well.

I know I should wait, and I plan to not even begin looking at listings until january. But I cant stop thinking about it. Is there anything about it that I should be aware of or wary, especially when buying or first learning? Or am I being a neurotic schiziod and should just send it?

>>28604257
Or, consider: Honda Hawk GT 650 that's tricked out. If you are scared of an SV650 being a little too quick for you.

>>28603775
Our Lord established a Church, with visible signs of unity, one, holy, Catholic, and Apostolic, over and against which the gates of Hell shall not prevail. The only reason anyone knows Our Lord today is because that is how He ordained His message me spread to all nations through the ages.

I do disc lock on the go to cities, at home a disc lock and a wheel lock on the back, if they’re committed enough to take both wheels off and carry it away good for them. No good spot to lock it to the frame

Looks like the BMW C1 might be coming back.
I've been looking for one of the original ones for years, so I might unironically buy one of these if they get released. It's just so fucking ugly, I love it.

>>28604257
take the suzukipill and you will not look back. They are the toyota of bikes

>>28604301
>make the k5 since the Mesozoic era

Shocking, I know

Your thoughts, anons?

Unlike the healthy cyclist, a person with the motorcycle syndrome literally needs his machine; without it, he has a sense of “something missing” and an “acute awareness of inadequacy.” As one patient told Nicholi: “If I got rid of the bike, there would be nothing but me, and that’s not enough.”
Occasionally Nicholi’s patients were promiscuous, but without pleasure; often they were impotent; always they worried about discovering that they were homosexuals. All the patients saw their cycles as extensions of their masculine selves. Said one: “The noise is all you hear. It’s masculine and makes me feel strong. I approach a girl on a cycle and I feel confident.”
Without their bikes, the students also lacked confidence socially and academically. Passive, apathetic and inactive, the afflicted students spent their non-cycling hours sleeping, talking aimlessly, drinking beer, or escaping reality in TV and drugs. When anxiety threatened to overwhelm them—often in the middle of the night—they took to their cycles for the illusion of “doing something and getting somewhere.”
All these symptoms are explained, Psychiatrist Nicholi believes, by the patients’ “tenuous masculine identification,” often caused by difficult childhood relationships with demanding, critical and successful fathers

>>28604301
Its not that I want it just for those things, its that I can have my cake and eat it too. Some weight thrown on the back and still capable of some foot work. If the suzuki is like what you say though, I am going for it.

WOAW!

>>28604257
>Is there anything about it that I should be aware of?
If you don't enjoy your 250, you won't enjoy a 650 either.
Never buy a bike without ABS.
If the chain's fucked (or new) the rest of the bike hasn't been maintained either.
Tyres (and helmets) have a shelf life.
ADVs (eg V-Strom 650) are the endgame.

>>28604323
I think fantasizing about bikers being gay men makes you a gay man

>>28604323
I think those people sounded like they genuinely needed help, but I'm sure therapy was going to fix whatever was wrong.

>>28604323
>The act of lifting the front wheel, called “riding a wheelie”, conveys the paradoxical nature of the cyclist’s relationship with his machine. In one sense the vertically erect motorcycle represents a surrogate erection, displayed to attract female attention and show dominance to other males. Yet the verb, “to ride” a wheelie, also suggests an awareness of the passive nature of the rider - it is the machine that is erect, not the rider.
But seriously, that’s an interesting theory. I believe his patients were Harvard students seeking psychological counseling, so I would guess a lot of it is due to their having self-selected. Being a “college boy” at that time, when many were in the shit in ‘nam, may be a factor as well.
I sometimes worry I spend too much time thinking about bieks, though.

>>28604323
There's no doubt that people who ride by choice have some shit going on inside them that they need to escape. I don't see it as part of my identity or anything like that.
For me, it's simple: once you've felt the SNEED, for it, there will always be a need.

>>28604373

>Abstract
The author presents findings of an in-depth study of nine accident-prone motorcyclists and outlines a previously undescribed syndrome in an attempt to elucidate the psychological causes of the rapidly rising rate of motorcycle accidents and deaths. Examining the reasons why the motorcycle is particularly dangerous to these patients, the author explores the specific ego defect common to them, their adaptive and defensive use of the cycle, the cycle's symbolic meaning, and the unconscious conflicts it reactivates. He also suggests that this syndrome gives clues to understanding accident-prone drivers of other motor vehicles.
>Your thoughts, anons?
Sounds like bullshit. He published in 1970 and it's not in the DSM5 and wasn't in the DSMIV so we can safely say it wasn't accepted as a real thing by his peers. The author only has one other published work that was similarly frivolous. He spent his teaching career lecturing on Freud and CS Lewis and only got into psychiatry after discovering brain surgery was too hard. His speciality was children and youths, but hisprofessional life was working for sports teams and corporations.
To sum up, he was a professiinal grifter hiding behind his Harvard credentials and adding nothing noteworthy to his field.
My opinion? Both you and he can eat shit.

The good news is that Suzuki is so reluctant to kill a winner that brand new SV650s are still basically the same bike.

Yeah, two different ebikes, stolen by marauding pavement apes from Oakland. I wanted something heavier and harder to steal. So I got a big bike and a big chain lock. Now I can ride wherever I want and not fear thieves.

I don't know what things are like where you're at, but if the golf courses near me were torn down tomorrow, they would immediately be replaced with high density housing bug hives for non-Whites. I'm not saying that just to be a jerk to you either.

>>28604574
Sounds like it's just another thinly veiled justification for hating white people.
Just like how here in Australia on the weekend, "pro-Palestine" protesters were attacking anti-immigration protesters.

If you vandalise a golf course with a motorcycle you should go to jail. I frankly don't care if you would rather it was filled with low-income housing, you can be a nigger somewhere else.

>>28604566
The greens at a golf course are expensive as hell. To just repair the damage would take more than you make in a year and then some. Then you're denying service to a business, and lost revenue for what the club house facilities take in, and lost revenue for what the caddies make. Add on top of that the fact that everyone in the system coming after you golfs there.
There are much more impactful ways to catch a felony and earn an extravagant financial judgment against you if some kind of social change is what you're after.

Geomax MX52s, which come stock on the 300r. They're not ideal for sand, though I've used it in sand and river silt plenty of times, but they're perfect for hard rocky surfaces which we have out here. Not street legal though. If you want street legal get a D606 rear.
