How do I animu my bike?

I like this thread and Suzuki

37 degrees and sunny tomorrow morning, I'm riding.

Btw, full leather doesn't actually do shit for warmth unless you have insulation underneath it.

>>28713319
I wear a hi-viz overcoat over my leathers in extremely cold conditions. I might not look ""cool"" but I stay alive and warm.

>>28713326
>hi-viz overcoat
People tell me that I look like a police man.

Anybody got fun music streamies to share?

Come on, I want to see some other dbt streamies.

>>28713287
it's already animu you just have to put on the bugman costume and fight shocker

>>28713343
Pretty good bro, the first one has that nostalgic feel, my fav is eyes without a face tho

Single cylinder supremacy.

>>28713387
I have Goku Chan though, does that count? It doesn't feel like I'm animu maxxing.

>>28713431
Real bikus already have enough animu in them.

>>28713388
That's my bike. It's not soulless, it's straightforward and honest. It does exactly what it says on the tin, and I like that about it. It definitely does have character, it's just a quiet and reserved personality rather than a giant in-your-face extraverted personality.

>>28713115 (OP)
>NO KNOBBIES, NO PROBLEM
This isn't off-road, it's just a gravel car park.

WEATHER STILL LOOKING CLEAR FOR FRIDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.
ME ON FRIDAY IF THEY GIVE ME SOME EXTRA FUCKING WORK TO DO AGAIN LAST MINUTE.

>Processes 150k order at 27% margins like a fucking slave
>Gets 3 whole runs after traveling 200km to run three (three) whole runs over 5 hours for $70.
This time I might just bring an extra set of clothes so I can shit in them and promptly leave.

how do you cope with finding the perfect deal on facebook marketplace and the guy goes "hey somebody messaged me before you but if he doesn't come buy it then it's all yours" and then a couple days later the listing is marked as sold?

>>28713475
Internalize the suck and move on.
never happened to me with a vehicle but with a fisk tank last year at a rather reasonable rate. Got the cash out from the bank (Took up my whole lunch break), booked out 4 hours of annual to make the drive and pick it up, called the guy before leaving to let him know my ETA and he was all "Bruh I hate to do this but my mate just called me saying his tank is leaking I gotta sell it to him okay bye".

I didn't wish cancer upon him, but if he happened to get it I wouldn't blink.

I thought Yamaha bikes are just as legendary, what happened?

>>28713475
I saw a video on YT, some dude posted his bike on marketplace and recived first call one minute later.

Why is SRAD legendary?

>>28713515
50% of the reason I want to park a TL1000R next to my TL1000S.
That fat fucking ass.

>>28713517
You can buy a seat cover

>>28713392
Suzuki is really stupid for not having a 2 cylinder GSXR400 and a racing SV in full plastic. New riders in Europe and Pajeets have no choice, they have to buy a Yamaha or Honda.

>>28713518
Indeed, my last one had one. I've been eyeing up one from Jay-aye-pan for a couple peso's.
But the TLR just looks so fucking thikk.

I'm a neet and I've saved up enough for either a shitty car or a bike.
Now if I get the shitty car, if i get kicked out, I won't freeze.
BUT
A bike sounds infinitely more fun.
What should I do /dbt/?

What bike? Bring us some pictures back hun.

>>28713630

Don't hate the game, but you gotta play it anyway. Just buy older gen, or save more monies and then get one. The bikes are not going anywhere.

if you dont own a car get a car
you can sleep in a car once your parents get sick of you, you cant sleep in a motorbike

>the vast majority of motorbike owners in the US see it more as a toy for fun than as an utility used to commute/work
>the vast majority of motorbike owners in Asia see it as an utility and means of transport, not a toy
>europe is somewhere in between
is this accurate? would this explain the huge rate of motorbike fatalities in USA compared to Europe?

>>28713648
chiggers dont ride bikes, they ride scooters
your entire argument is based off considering scooters to be bikes
but no self respecting human would call a chigger-scooter a motorbike

americans have more accidents because they have a lower standard of driving than euros
and they have higher density population centres, with even lower standards of driving, thanks to demoRats and their sanctuary city policies that will hand out full licences to any venezuelan that "claims" to have had one issued back home - with 0 vetting
(we'll see this rise in deaths in the UK soon, as they're giving every single african a free drivers licence (1.2million+ licence conversions issued to "new arrivals" who have 0 vetting or testing done) and as more moslem kids come of age and get their free motability cars and crash into anything and everything while high on balloons)

>>28713648
the USA has like 500 times more people than the entire continent of europe

I think I want a Street Triple 765 or a Monster 1200. Anyone owned either of them? I've rode a Stripple and it was a fucking hoot, but the torque of the Monster seems interesting.

>>28713319
>>28713326
Rode to work at 27 this morning in my bright yellow occunomix high vis oversuit. Just picked up a klim airbag vest as well for this winter since I’m getting old and slightly more risk averse
Feet and hands kept toasty warm by heated liners.
With the right prep riding in the winter is very cozy, as long as they keep the roads plowed
Starting last year the city no longer plows the alley, so I had to dig it out myself a few times, super annoying
One of these days I’ll get a snow blower

What are some other oil cooled engines you know?

>>28713697
every engine that has oil is also cooled by it

>>28713717
No, usually they use coolant

>>28713722
>oil doesn't cool an engine
ok retard?

>>28713722
Not him, but are you stupid?

>>28713724
>>28713727
Oil lubricates the engine, cooled by air and/or coolant
In some engines oil is used also as coolant, so there's no coolant, only oil.

>>28713648
It's because of 3 main factors
>roads and streets are treated the same so you have boomers pulling out of their driveway into 60mph traffic
>roads are flooded with retarded geriatrics and wild animals who went from riding/raping donkeys to driving 2 ton vehicles
>law only enforces traffic when convenient for them and they know you wont run. this emulates natural selection which leads to the shithead concentration increasing over time.
there's more but those are the main ones. 2/3 of those are easily fixed but would mean certain people would miss out on gibs so it never changes.

Hey I need some advice. Never ridden a bike until the MSF course. Finished it and I have two bikes I found.For $2700, a 2018 CBR300R. For $2800, a 2023 CB300.

What do you guys think is a better buy?

>>28713746
Basically they're the same. Depends on condition and which one do you like more

>>28713746
Frankly buy whatever is cheapest and isn't a piece of shit. Your first bike won't be your last and you'll probably fuck up your first bike by dropping it in a parking lot or something.

>>28713697
Glad you asked, I've got a few

>>28713128
>REAL /dbt/
>another tranny thread
sure
not posting my bike btw

>>28713732
And in those air cooled engines can you think of any fluid moving around in the engine? The primary cooling comes from the air, yes, but on many air cooled bikes you'll still often see an oil cooler. If they don't have one and are a performance engine, like a dirt bike the oil is absorbing heat and evaporating.

>>28713746
You'll have more fun on CRF300L

>>28713746
I'd get the 2023 CB300R. Its a great bike, my friend has one.

>>28713644
I tried once on deebeetee withe the honda clutch princess
Sadly she hasnt replied in what seems like years, or several threads

>completelly ignores the fact that americans can access ANY high power large motorbike after just one basic exam and without any extra requirements while europeans have to slowly graduate from smaller bikes, into bigger ones, forcing them to start out in low power bikes while they get used to riding
i would go out on a limb and guess that most motorbike fatalities in the US are people who have been riding for less than 3 years but got a 500cc or larger as their first bike anyway

>>28713733
I think most people are incapable of safely operating a motor vehicle and in other countries they’re either
1) comparably wealthy and mostly white (or were mostly) or East Asian, so people can just ride public transport and stay off the road
2) so poor so the retards genuinely can’t afford cars
We need to put a leash back on niggers and make it so that the temperamentally unsuited get off the fucking road and onto a train

damn maybe dont threaten the people that you want around you fucking psycho

>>28713515

Not as cool as H000nda vtec and V4s.

>>28713777
>most motorbike fatalities in the US are people who have been riding for less than 3 years

We actually have the numbers. A lot of riders are already not getting a license even when its easy.
https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/813732

>2023
>6,335 motorcyclists killed
>82,564 motorcyclists injured
>28 times the passenger car occupant fatality rate.
>34% of fatal crashes had no valid motorcycle licenses.
>26% alcohol impairment
>41% died in single-vehicle crashes were alcohol-impaired.
>In States without universal helmet laws, based on known helmet use, 51

>>28713798
They are cool but they didn't have the impact or reach the SRAD did

>>28713789
>>old man pleads that he will not do anything to my bike and that i return home (hes old and wants someone to take care of him)
fuck him, next week he'll be complaining about the bike again
go your own way bro

>>28713798
True or the honda fireblade (which is why the SRAD exists)

>>28713805
Srads are good bikes, but literally only like 2 stunt riders went on about them. They got eclipsed by the fireblade.
>>28713527
>>28713517
Tiller killers are dope widowmakers, almost got one before stumbling into this

>>28713805
What went right back then? Was everything just cooler? Lean bitches, fat bikes?

>>28713782
true but a big factor is growing up around cars and bikes and playing racing video games in a modern country vs affirmative action license in your 30s+ after a lifetime of nothing but sitting on your mammys stoop eating mosquito burgers. the latter will never ever ever catch up to the former in common sense or skill

>>28713812
That is one cool baik. Animu approved, do 3d women trouble you for sex all the time?

>>28713818
I catch em mirin' but I have been too depressed and stressed to chase skirt so id say im a sex Had-er
Favorite bike I've ever been on tho so that makes up for it. 03 SP2.

>>28713812
>They got eclipsed by the fireblade.
The 600 and 750 SRAD eclipses the CBR F3 though

If you're riding a homologation bike, does it make you a homo rider?

>>28713827
Well yeah the F3 wasn't that great of a bike all things considered. That being said the SRAD only Spawned because of the blade'

>>28713814
>What went right back then? Was everything just cooler? Lean bitches, fat bikes?
Yep, everything was cooler, more genuine, sun was yellower and shined more, flower smell was more pronounced
Overall people put themselves out there and now everyone is on their little screens, they even want more tft screens on the bike and muh synchronizations and service warning faggotry
Less third worlders too so the standards were higher and the world wasn't full speed hypercapitalism yet

>>28713845
Nowadays you have to buy heritage rose breeds if you actually want them to smell good

>want to learn to wrench
>no one in the family wrenches
where does one learn this things

>>28713871
the internet or in school/internship

>>28713871
I've seen a few wrench wenches on YT, it's simple:

1. Buy a bike/car and wrench
2. Come to your local shop and start working

Easy

>>28713871
>Hey guys Chris fix here and today we will

You will need tools. Which is an investment. Not a small investment either depending how much you wanna be able to do.

>>28713871
Start with changing a bulb, removing wheel, changing oil, changing air filter, removing fairing etc, in time you will become a wizard or tech support idiot for your family.

>8k miles
>3000$
is this the move for babbys first bike?

>>28713878
You can buy tools one by one.

>>28713881
No ABS and no FI, so no. Just get a modern bike for your first bike.

>>28713881
>2002 sv650s
thoughts on the cockpit?

Bike still at shop.

>>28713881
Can't you buy a supersport in US for 3k?

It seems to be a little bit expensive for a 25yo bike, low mileage doesn't really matter if the shit is old af.
In fact it might be even worse because no one maintained it in 25 years, if we assume the mileage is real ofc

>>28713888
Suzuki was shooting for poor-core, but turned out kino.

>>28713881
>>28713888
It's been dropped on the left side I believe, the lever is broken
Considering it's your first bike you'll probably drop it again, I would get something lighter for a first bike

>>28713877
>Come to your local shop and start working
wdym? a local bike shop? do they let people work on their stuff there?

>>28713645
that shit last for 2 hours at best, a rubber wiper for your glove lasts forever

>>28713900
keked
>>28713901
like what

>>28713905
>rubber wiper for your glove lasts forever
huh? like a windshield wiper but tiny or something?
that makes me think.. why not add tiny electric wipers to your helmet? why hasnt anybody thought of this?

do we watch competitive moto racing here?

>>28713911
never got into motoGP or F1 or any of that
dirt bike competitions seem fun tho, in the same way that Rally seems fun and exciting

>>28713881
>>28713888
If you go for a 2003+ you get fuel injection

>>28713911
I've got a Motogp and Isle of Man video passes, I'm not a hardcore race fan, but it's nice to watch throughout the year

>>28713906
Nta, but for first bike get a rebel 300, rebel 500, cb300r, cbr250r, duke390, meteor 350, himmy 411, himmy 450, gurella 450, int 650, g310r, g310gs, cb500r, ninja 250, ninja 300, ninja 400, almost anything Japanese 250 or 300.

>>28713881
Nah, wait for a newer red one to come up.

>>28713689
got one

>>28713635
>Bring us some pictures back hun
the OEM plate holder is starting to grow on me. it doesn't necessarily look sleek (especially not from the side), but I like how it reflects the taillight.

>>28713927
phwoaaar, thanks fren. i like the duke 390. 2018 with 5600 miles for 3900$, modern and sexy

>>28713940
one more

>>28713798
This is true

>>28713911
I try but I forget when its supposed to air every time and then miss it.

would a duke 790 be too much for babbys 1st bike?

>>28713911
Yes.

>>28713904
>do they let people work on their stuff there?
They give a job if you can do it and if you're a hot girl.

>>28713977
no, always get the biggest bike you're comfortable with (unironically).
once you've found it, google the rpm range at which it unleashes its power and just stay away from revving that high for a while.

this fucking boomer myth of having to bux 20 bikes with 50cc incrementals every time is so god damn retarded and costly that the only generation who could've come up with are baby boomers who were accustomed to everything being cheap as fuck.

>LISTEN HERE SONNY I STARTED ON A 150cc, then 200, then 300, then 350, 400 after that, then i got a 500cc and after that I bought a cbr600 that I rode for two hundred years (bless you bro), then upgraded to a 700, 800, xr900 and SV1000. sold that one for a 1100, now I ride a 1300cc bike and im glad that I didnt start on a big one right away, mightve killed myself!

if you aren't a complete retard with literally no self control, it does not matter whether you start on a 500, 600 or 1000cc.
if you ARE a retard with no self control, your 125cc will be your last bike because these things can kill you just as easily.

SEXO

>>28713977
Yes you retarded fuck. Stick to the list I gave you.

>>28714006
why do my frens bully me so? i just want to be sporty and kewl
>>28713987
unfathomably based. the 790 looks cooler than the 390. i like the nekked bike look over the underpowered 300cc "sport"bike cb keker. but i like the 390 too, it is CUTE cute fr.

I went inline 4 and it feels so much better than the twins I was used to, I can't ever go back senpai

the orange on the 390 is pure sexo. im originally belgian but id be willing to go by "the flying dutchman" for this hog

>>28713672
>With the right prep riding in the winter is very cozy
based. i like winter riding more than summer riding.

>>28713927
i perused this list once more. its a solid list, something for everyone. the rebel is not my style, and i dont like getting an underpowdered sportbike. i dont know what a himmy or nutella is, but i do love their hazelnut spread. rn feeling like the Duke is my best option

>>28714019
>wants to be cool for a firstbike
Youd have to buy one of my bikes for that to happen silly nobike
Now choose one: crf450rl or zx14r

Hope you brought cash
I KNOW WHAT I GOT, and that crf needs wrenchin

>>28714043
but are you man enough to ride a scooter?

https://voca.ro/18sio7uZVhfO
does this 883 sportster sound good? someone is offering it on facebook for $2000, and what should i look for? it might be my first bike and i really like the sportsters with the big tank

>>28713958
Eclipsed by the RZ 350 YPVS

>>28713616
God I wish I was that bike seat.

>>28714054
he didn't rev it and all these bikes sound shit at idle

>>28714019
one day you might come to the conclusion riding a small bike fast is much more enjoyable than riding a big bike slow

>>28714043
just get a mid-late 2000s i4 600
>>28714054
sounds like they cold started it with no choke, it should smooth out when warm but carbs need small tweaks for big temperature changes so it could be that too

>>28714059
plz guide me sir
i am a nobiker but i really want one badly, what should i look for in a used harley?
i must close the bike case and get all the pussy

>>28714043
>i dont like getting an underpowdered sportbike
kek, u don't even know how to ride yet bro, the 13 year old kid on the yz85 is faster than you on that duke and ur here talking about bikes being too slow for you
get a grip

>>28714067
Not him, but you aren't going to attract the opposite sex on a sportster.

Get something with "glide" in its name. That will do it.

>>28714067
if all you want is pussy then ride a scooter because bitches love them scoot brutes.

>>28713987
Bless you anon, for making lightly used (and lightly crashed) bikes so cheap on marketplace when beginners buy them and then realise they're way too fast.

>>28713977
Would a Lamborghini Aventador be a good first car? Because it has a lower power to weight ratio, even if you factor in a pretty heavy rider. If you would have been fine with that as a new driver, then you'll be fine with this (unironic advice).

>>28714077
>Would a Lamborghini Aventador be a good first car?
No.

What's a best i4 to buy as a newb?

>>28714084
the orange one

>>28714082
Is that from Australia? We have the exact same laws for bikes as well. It basically limits you to a 500cc, which is coincidentally the perfect upper size limit for a beginner anyway.
The AI got it wrong btw, learner drivers can drive anything. It's once you get your P's that the limit applies. You see some pretty hilariously fast cars being driven around with L plates sometimes.

>>28714084
>hai guize. wat biek iz gud?
>also, i'm trans if that matters.

>>28714084
ZX-4R or 500SR.

>>28714085
>>28714092
>>28714093
Nevermind, I think I like FZ6 Fazer the most. It's also cheap.

>>28714090
here are the results for my specific state in australia

beginners can learn how to drive in the Lamborghini Aventador but must not drive that same car when they get their licence.

>>28714055
What year is your RZ350?

>>28714100
if you want cheap and cheerful then get a scooter

>>28714111

belgium doesnt exist

>>28714114

>>28714117
Well since I'm not white I can't say I'm flemish or dutch or french. That's why belgian it is.

>>28714124

please come to australia and fuck my wife

>>28714100
unironically a good choice, but whatever you choose get some cheap frame sliders for when you drop it so you dont damage the frame and tank

1983 bro, what year is your Interceptor?

>>28714109
>>28714133

Its what my friend started on (again) after a dirtbije hiatus of like 3 decades idk
Hes pretty based

At least he has a japanese girlfriend unlike you.

>>28714143
Have you bought that Gulf FZ or nah? I don't understand.

>>28714144
Im so glad the police didnt cause me to do that during the recording incident on 118th ave with the jailbait incident
I mightve had an incident like this one and then roped incidentially
>incident

>>28714144
all he had to do was follow the white line

>>28714147
Ive ridden it a few times but i traded the vfr800 for that fz and gave it to him cause we are BROS bros

Shouldn't you cover the engine holes before spray painting it?

https://youtu.be/bQIDkmmqv5Y?t=2627

Is he retarded? Am I retarded?

who knew that Shoomers™ is a boomer with a grey beard

>>28714154
You gave him your VFR, he gave you his FZ, and then you gave him his FZ back for free?

Ghost rider style

>>28714160
No i went and traded my vfr800 for the fz6 and then brought the fz6 back and said here you go buddy

>>28714159
And stay off my lawn

Anyways vfr800 gone byebye long time now, almost a year i think now? Maybe im wrong or it will be a year by next i cant renember these things much bros
I remember getting hailed on the vfr800 on the way back through hinton, it was brootal but also cool


Was a pity in taking this photo because i missed the sportster full tailend loaded sidsybat backback and shitbobber cruise out of the dirt road behind me and on the highway, few other bikes that day, it was great around there but i regretted my shoei helmet for touring immediately lmfao
It only gets away with that as a summer headpiece bros, or slowpoke style
Those hailings fuckin huurt

Doesn't look like a KTM tho. Can't tell at this angle but I suppose a guy who sends it through a red like that is the kind of guy who'd stick a rag in the tank where the locking cap was before he broke it off.

How often do you wash your bike

>>28714272
2x deep cleans a year (1 at the start, 1 at the end, of the riding season)
and then maybe 2-4 times through the season, depending how much offroading or bugkilling

>>28714267
I know this bike is fine, but just the look of it, something about it screams I'M CHEAP and Chinese. Maybe the type of the plastic or its form. It doesn't look like a HONDA bike

Is DCT gay?

>>28714292
No more than you are.
>>28714272
Not nearly as often as I should. I do a lot of dusting though.

>>28713068
>Not everyone lives somewhere with year-round riding weather.
Every American in downstate NY or below has year round riding weather, its the significant majority of Americans.
>Motorcycles are ultimately toys in the North American market.
This is true but only for subjective cultural reasons
>They chew through consumables and are expensive to insure, usually offsetting any cost savings in fuel.
Theyre cheaper to insure than cars, often significantly cheaper. My motorcycle coverage is 1/4 my car coverage and its better. Running costs are comparable, cars need tires and brakes too but you spend less on gas. Because of how expensive gas and insurance are, it puts motorcycles in the significant lead. You can sit down and run the numbers on this yourself.
>You buy one because you want one, not because it's practical.
That is why people buy one in north america, but they are extremely practical.

>>28714292
Gayer than sucking cock. If you don't want to operate a clutch you should be honest with yourself and buy a scooter.

>>28713115 (OP)
I'm 30 and own a 2019 Goldwing DCT Tour. Yes I already have a form of arthritis.

>>28714292
As a Goldwing owner yes, it's nice to have sometimes but you lose the gay little connection with the engine.

>>28714272
Depends how much moon dust I acquire. If i gets bad enough that I cannot read the lettering on the tail, that's my barometer to clean it.

Remind me the name of this joke of a manufacturer.

Today I had something happened I never experienced before.
So yesterday I had a ride in the rain. Then I got home and parked it in the garage.
Today I go to the garage to take the bike out, on foot, and I notice it won't move forward. Im like, wtf did I left it in 1st? I never do this. Then I see its in neutral. But it won't roll forward. I had to push it quite heavily and then finally it started moving after a strong initial push
I assume this was from the rain yesterday? I read somewhere the rain cause cause this to happen where your breaks get like sorta glued to the disc a bit?

>>28714329
Ok pinhead.

But that said, Transalp or V-Strom 800 (not the DE).

>>28714545
Lmao wrong file fml let’s just try one at random since I have no thumbnails

>>28714070
im lilerally the fastest eber on a real bike though. 2 weeks of parking lot training and im world class

>>28714043
Get a drz or something similar

>>28714499
Vstrom is the best of those, but Himalayan if you're looking for some harder off-road.

I discovered today that zoomers are terrified of their front brake and in fact exclusively use their rear brake to stop. I didn't believe it at first but after reading a dozen comments and arguments across several social media platforms, it is indeed the case that the majority of zoomer riders believe it's "correct" braking technique to only use the rear brake. It seems most of them think they'll immediately fly over the handlebars if they breathe on the front brake lever.

I hate zoomers so much bros.

>>28714574
I can't reach my rear brake easily with any riding shoe at all so I use my front for basically everything except full braking and hill starts.

>>28714578
my bike has a design flaw that basically makes the rear brake useless so I learned to slow and stop using only the front. not ideal, but certainly better than rear only. learning that all the faggots I see riding around with helmet covers and the the biggest chicken strips I've ever seen are only ever using their rear brake is equal parts maddening and hilarious

28714574
this is a bait post
do not reply

>look up some motorcycle review videos on YouTube
>the algorythm starts feeding me crash videos
Why

>>28714318
Do the side bags fit a full face helmet? Reviewers over glaze over how well the luggage actually works. My top case is only 52L but my side bags are 44 each so my storage volume is very is slightly larger than the gwing

>>28714606
Sure, they're posting old boomer memes and replacing boomer with zoomer.

>>28714292
If it's Honda, no.

>>28714325
So cool.

do we watch real bike racing here? for me its gooning to the dutch cutes

>>28714499
For first bike, himi, for second bike vstronk or transalp. Just take a test ride.

>>28714341
yeah its probably some corrosion from the rain. lubricate your shit when it dries out, wd40 + ptfe is pretty good you need to be on top of maintenance when theres water involved

>>28714631
is there a female moto gp or something similar?

>>28714318
>I'm 30 and own a 2019 Goldwing DCT Tour. Yes I already have a form of arthritis.

damn, im 39 and i been mirin the '24 flat green one, wondering if i'm too young to be on a goldwing.
i'd get a manual tho, no dct for me. from my cold dead hands

>>28714694
moto gp is unisex. there would be females in it if they qualified. 2 wurman have got into moto3. that's the farthest.
there's not enough females interested in motorcycling in general to develop an entire race league for them

>>28714618
The side bags don't but the rear trunk does.

>>28714694
sexo GP with the dutch pros?

>>28714716
Not about interest, femoids are not cut out for physically straining sport. Almost no one is for that matter.

>>28714720

Try a GS before going Goldwind, its the official Dad mobile. Or 1050DE or AT, like a proper ADV.

Which way GS man

>>28714740
>GS -
bmw is garbage
>AT
actually also considering one. the 6.6 gal tank is wild. would see little to no offroad use, which isn't uncommon for most owners of that bike I guess

at EICMA honda revealed a cb1000 GT, which would be perfect, but in all honda's cheapness it doesnt come with android auto. I wanna go xplorin i need maps. also apparently not scheduled for a US release which is mega gay

>>28714760
2nd paragraph >>28713845

>>28714760
Maybe 1000gt doesn't IDK but AT comes with android auto and applel car play.

>>28714777
i know that was my point

>>28714766
i'm with you. fuck this gay earth. however you are in europe and cross countries in a day. I am in the US where it would take months to go across this country and back. the only ounce of technology I'll submit to is android auto and jewgle maps

FRAUDKEK CAN ONLY WIN ON THE BEST BIKE

Do we have spaniards or italians here, what do they ride?

>>28713697
Bandits also use those older oil cooled gixxer engines, 1200 is a stroked out 1100 for example.

>>28715029
>oil cooled gixxer engines
The fuck is an oil cooled engine?

>>28715029
Delicious cam swaps.

>>28715033
Instead of a radiator with coolant it has one with oil. And extra channels in block to circulate that for taking off heat. It still keeps cooling fins like regular air cooled engines, though smaller ones. Kind of a lightweight engine but they don't make a lot of power, and bikes themselves are heavy anyway. E.g. you would compare bandit with partial fairings to a fazer but the latter has like 20 extra horses.

>>28715039
To add perhaps I meant the comparison with 600s. Not sure about liters but supposedly 1200 bandits make way more power than within official specs.

is the difference between cruisers and other bikes just seat height? i feel like if you got a scrambler seat for a meteor 350 it'd just look like a standard bike

Shoei GT Air 2 for $500 or AGV K1S for $274? Noise doesn't matter as I can just wear earplugs. Comfortably is what I want

>>28714720
its top left for me

>>28715066
Simply, the difference is just steering response and centre of gravity.
Less simply, it's far, far more than that.

>>28715080
>>28715066
Makes sense that short guys are drawn to cruisers so the seat height will be lower.

>>28715074
You have to try them on, see which one fits your head better.

>>28715033
Its air cooled engine, but it adds a small radiator to cool the engine oil.
