First for catbike

80's aesthetics were so GOAT

> tfw no CB(R)650F

Pretty new to bikes; ;so if I wanted to replace my old lead acid battery that is a 6v 4ah, with a more modern and powerful lithium ion battery that is 13.6v 4.6ah would there be negative side effects due to to being a higher wattage, etc? Forgive me if this is a simple question.

DO NOT get a battery with a different voltage. You'll fry your electronics.
Higher capacity is good, you shouldn't go lower than OEM.
Maximum power output (in Watts, power is voltage x current draw) must be equal to or higher than what your manual suggests.

I have a cat and a bike. Does that count?

>those headers
Muh dick.

My bike has a cat, does that count?

Okay so I'll have to find a 6volt battery but it's okay if the battery is more than 4 ah?

Pics of cat on bike

no
yes

dat motion blur
>VERY fast cat going at incredible hihg speed

Yep. The voltage is how hard the battery pushes current into the bike; if you push too hard it breaks. 4 Ah is the capacity, i.e. how long it can supply current until it "runs out" (voltage drops below 6 V)

Your cat looks like one of the earth worshipping hippy types.

I have pics of my cat and bikes, but none of cat on bike.
I'll fix that when I get home

tell boss you're sick so you can do it now

I'd like to see you take a better picture of a cat just touching down from a 60mph wheelie in 2012

>Non runing bike
>Flowers
Fucking gay m8.

Thank you. That helped alot. It's also proving harder to find modern lithium 6volt batteries haha.

I live over 600 miles away. But luckily it's crew change day. So I'll be home tonight

Some guy wants to exchange his suzuki bandit 2001 blue clean 16kkms for my blue ninja 250R 2009 22kkms with yoshimura slip on.

Advice? For or against?

Also would swapping to a modern battery require any electrical system change?

>trading bikes
huehuehuehue

...

Shouldn't be the case but don't quote me on that.

You're welcome. Why not stick to regular lead acid batteries though?

Bandit what? 250? 1250?

There both shit, but the bandit is faster.

Bandit s600

r8 my planned day
>ride to shop to buy metal tongue scraper
>ride to supermarket to buy bread rolls
>make omelet with bacon and put on bread roll
>eat while watching Deep Impact

Looks clean, do it m8.

Thanks!!

You have to ask yourself: why would he want to make this trade?

Fucking gay m8 and deep impact is fucking gayer.

I've just heard they are unreliable and pretty much stop working after a year anyways. As well as I was looking to hide all my electrics under my seat and it would help to be able to turn the battery on its side. That being said the cost may keep me from it. Normal lead acid one is like $20 where as a lithium is like $160

OR skip the dumb shit and just go ride all day.

Needs more bikes.
> tongue scraper
What the fuck just spin up the rear tire and lick it you pussy. I don't even need to do that, I just clean my tongue by eating out one of my many playmate side bitches every morning before I hop in my Porsche.

He said because he rides alot in the city. I put my 250 for sale to get a zx-6 but id have to put in like 4-5k more. He exchanges his 4 free!

What bike do you have btw?
I'd stick with lead but that's my opinion. They should last a couple years each, are much cheaper and don't spontaneously combust.

Just remove the shitty leds.
Probably bacause those bikes are heavy as fuck and he only wants a small bike for commuting. You cant really go wrong with karana/bandit engines.

That bike ran fine m8

I am picking up a 72 Kawasaki g3ss (first bike) at the end of the month. I'm trying to get sorted the things I need to do to it. I'll most likely stick with the lead acid one and just figure out a way to hide it.

Pics of crew on cat on bike

20 years ago when it had headers and spark plugs

damn...
managed to lose about 2000km worth of tread in about 50km of riding this afternoon.. rear is just about bald now.

Recommendations for new tyres?
May as well get them this week, thinking another pp3.

Best litrebike for my fifteen year old nephew?

You shouldn't get a bike that old as your first, you'll probably spend more time fixing shit than riding. In any case good luck. Stick with lead.

It ran about a year before that picture was taken and a few months after it but it was a bit useless to me cause of 6hp

>Liter
Fuck that m8 get him a busa.

No busas as he has never ridden a motorcycle before

Shit bikes can be fun m8.

I'll get right on that

Your probably never going to ride m8.

Not unless he's a nigger m8

Well I'm getting it pretty cheap and is currently running, and if I were to buy a modern bike in the style I like, well I just wouldn't be able to have a bike at all really.

Busa's are as ugly as they are fast.

Well it's running and driving as of now, so hopefully I will.

Just like ur mum when she rides my dick, fagget!!

>going to the doctor
>think nurse there kinda likes me
>she's always doing funky shit when i'm around
>want to ride bike to doctor
>it's going to be cold and cloudy
>the helmet will mess up my hair

No but seriously, i can ask any random bimbo for their number but what the fuck do i say to my nurse?

Just saying, you'd probably have less of a headache with something like a used CB 500. Expect to spend easily the cost of your bike again on spare parts within the next 2 years, if you can find them at all.
In any case, I hope you have fun regardless.

Are compound tires a meme?

>Old 2 smoke as first bike
Dont do it m8.

> mess up my hair
That's why you go Bruce Willis style, motherfucker.
> what do I say
"Heute Abend kriegst du erstmal ordentlich den Kolben reingebuttert du Fiqqhure."

Just look at brazzerz nurse videos m8

In dbt owning a bike is a meme

I do really like the brats people make out of the CBs. And your most likely right, although there have been a bunch of replacement parts put on, it's just the quickest way for me to get a bike right now. Seeing as I'm doing a partial trade and only giving 150in cash for it.

Try M7RR's.

But it's so cheap:(

>Failed hipster cucks project
Ayy lmao!!

S20 Evos or the new S21's or whatever they're called.

Was thinking of trying the power one or the power pure if i don't get another pp3, heard anything about either?

Oh for fuck's sake.
It'll handle like shit. The engine will feel like shit. It'll break down and cost a lot of time and money to fix when you can't afford it and just want to ride. It's an old bike that you shouldn't chop up.
SAVE UP UNTIL NEXT YEAR AND GET SOMETHING THAT WILL ACTUALLY BE A GOOD FIRST BIKE.
Please user, I'm trying to help.

Did you even test ride that thing?

>That's why you go Bruce Willis style, motherfucker.
I'm trying to go Axl Rose atm.

I need to ask Veeky Forums how to keep my hair from looking like pic related.
Yes i have the face for it
No i won't post face

>"Heute Abend kriegst du erstmal ordentlich den Kolben reingebuttert du Fiqqhure."

She some kind of Asian/hispanic
I tried but fuck paying for porn

> how to keep my hair from looking like pic related
by cutting it off ya poofta
Veeky Forums are a bunch of twink ungas desu

What are some good first bikes that are in that same vein of style then?

Its a money pit. like 2 months ago i sold a shitty cb450t that was neglected for 5 years to some hipster cuck for $900 the bike was in its last legs and i just primed it black, new china headlight and shit $15 clubman, the faggot is going to dump atleast $600 just to get it running properly and like $800 more for looks and other things.

I kinda get like a semi-jewfro going when my hair grows out but the army look faded in 2012.

Girls dont like beta cuck long hair, specaly nurses m8.

>beta
>long hair
This is how far words can come from what they actually mean

>Girls dont like beta cuck long hair
No see that's the guy on the left. I'll be Axl Rose on the right.
As a non-beta, i do things like ride bikes, shoot guns, and do drugs but i can't drink because permanent brain injury.

Not moreso than goodbikes

You shouldn't base your first bike purchase off a certain style, much less something as shit as brats or whatever the hipsters call them.
You want a 4stroke around 50-80 hp with an upright seating position that was built in the last 20-25 years, used but as close to stock as possible. No cruisers, no supersports, no cafe racers or other shit. Ride it for a year or 2, then get what you want once you can actually ride.
If you're not looking to learn to ride you might as well leave and go to Veeky Forums or some other forum where style is what they value.

Suggestions:
> Ninja 250
> CB 500
> GS 500 for poorfags
> SV 650
> Ninja 650 / ER 6n / ER 6f

any reason why i should get them instead of what michelin is offering?

>80hp
>first bike
You're like that cool uncle that no one talks to anymore after they found child porn on his computer, also he gives bad advice.

>Trying to look like a girl is not beta

Chicks dig the man bun
>tfw look exotic enough to resemble an overgrown chinkman
>mfw i'm just slav

Long hair brother reporting in
Condition every single day
Brush every single day
Keep it silky smooth

This is seriously the worst bait I've ever seen.

>he thinks 650's are too much for beginners
>LAMS bikes

Well I look like Ryan Gosling (pic related) and every single one of the 12 nurses I banged last month said she'd never fuck a long-haired commie faggot so there's that.
Excuse me, gotta tell me assistant go to the shop and pick up the Lambo.

>Wanting to look like a whiny ginger who got beaten up by a fashion designer

Hate to break it to you, but Axl's hair is naturally pretty much dead straight. If yours isn't you'll have to pay through the nose to have it chemically stripped.

Only tattoed vane sluts from tumbler.

U mad bro

I just figured I wouldn't enjoy riding as much if I didnt like the looks of the bike. I also figured it wouldn't be as big of deal if I dropped this bike as it would be if I saved a year for one.

Well yeah if you look like a twink you're a beta but i'm "swole"

nah man buns is out.
I'm going 80's glam rock.

Might even do hairspray and a base.

Thanks homie. Do you use shampoo/conditioner combo or a seperate conditioner? My hair is slightly curly naturally but I don't want to use spray/iron to keep it straight.

Man buns are for faggots and no girl likes them

Kek, lonely house wives love the fabio.

>>Wanting to look like a whiny ginger who got beaten up by a fashion designer
To be fair his ego makes it difficult to mount an effective defense to attackers.

Shampoo and condition separate
I only shampoo every three maybe four days though, but condition every day
My hair is really thick so I gotta autistically brush it

That's why you get a cheap bike as your first (read: around 1.5k - 3k).
Also you must never have ridden a bike before because once you're on one and riding you won't give a shit what it looks like. Do you even have gear yet?

Steel Panther, fuck yeah. But long hair on aa dude IRL, no thanks.
