>a fucking ice cream cone

daily reminder that honda a shit

Somethingth for evening rides.

was this the best biking game?

Hast du in Kurven noch nie mit dem Motorschutzbügel aufgesetzt?

I caught some schoolgirls posing on my bike today after I came out of work. They laughed and ran away when they saw me coming.

Life should be more like my pornos.

TOP 10 FOR FUCK CARBS

also which sumos are fuel injected

was that the one where it had big open outdoor stages that you could drive around on in multiplayer?

good luck fixing ur efi when you crash after your willy

>I'm too inept to understand basic mechanical principles
And not many that you're likely to be able to afford

I was offered a 1990 Honda CBR 600F for my 16giggitybyte iPhone 6+. The guy lives quite close to me so I could go check up on that bike myself before agreeing to trade, he claims it's in okay condition for an old bike, not perfect but drivable.

Should I do the trade if the bike is infact in okay condition and not a total bomb on 2 wheels?

i can fix it i just don't want to also it's raining so I don't really want to go outside

i'll just buy a new bike check m8

Warning: Oldfag

Obviously check it first, but a bike for a phone is always a good deal imo.

ROAD REDEMPTION

U gon get mugged bruh

Then bring the bike inside, if you're cold they're cold and that's just cruel

>Then bring the bike inside, if you're cold they're cold and that's just cruel
bike has a comfy cover though. also my insides are not big enough

Forgot to add that I've owned one bigger bike thus far which was an ancient 1987 Kawasaki GPZ 500, the same kind of bike used in Top Gun, but smaller as that one was 750cc if I remember correctly

Also, not gonna get mugged because I don't live in America, no offence.

where do you live

i'll come mug you personally

Finland. My friend lives in the same city as the dude who's selling that bike and told me that he's chill.

> Kurven fahren

>Also, not gonna get mugged because I don't live in America
As an American, I kek'd
But if the guy is serious and the bike isn't a clapped out pile of scrap, go for it m8

20 DAYS

REEEEEEEE why isn't it June already??

How retarded would this be as a first bike?
>hartford.craigslist.org/mcy/5563253913.html
>no headers
>last ran eight months ago
>salvage title for "scratches to the frame and damage to the Tank and Tail"

New helmet day, also this weekend is supposed to be sunny, so I can finally give these tires a good scrubbing.

Why does my 90cc dirt bike start to bog out high up in the rev range?

Should I enrich the fuel mixture a little?

Seems unlikely that it would've been totaled for scratches. And I wouldn't pay over 1200 for it if you can get it to fire off without the pipes

Ye, I'm going to give that thing a look tomorrow. I kinda like my iPhone, so if he's going to jew out and ask for more money or if the bike runs like raped ape and is held together by zipties, I'll just back out.

That's not Fuel.

Easy test to try, if yourcarb uses and enrichening valve for the choke as opposed to a butterfly plate.
Turn the choke on and see if the bog improves. I'd it does you need to up jet sizes.
Also make sure everything is clean and undamaged on the intake/exhaust.
And lastly have you modded anything without rejetting?

s20 evo?

I'll try the choke trick

>And lastly have you modded anything without rejetting?

no sir.

Are bikes loud enough that you should wear ear protection while riding?

The bike likely isn't, but the wind is if you're going around 100 kph for a while.

So basically wear a full helmet and you're good

No, wind will still create turbulence that will deafen you over time. Wear ear plugs pls user

Työnnä cebaris perseesees homo :DDDD

It will only help if you carb uses the enrichening system and doesn't have a butterfly plate in it.
What bike and year?

road noise is pretty bad once you get going. slow speed your bike might be loud enough

I get road noise in my hjc and in the sedici which are pretty cheap brands.

Hirtä ittes kasseista kattoo sitte ku ne laskee, fägötti

>fägötti
I wonder what this word means

hjc fucking blows.
Its a wind tunnel inside my helmet at 35 mph

No, they're the stock Pirelli Rosso 2s. The bike isn't broken in yet.

Tempted by this, but something seems off. Surely it can't be good to only do 380 miles on it in 3 years.

>Never been out in the rain
>Bike is in Sunderland

I just don't believe you

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

some chickenshit keeps hanging bags on my bikes handlebars whilst im at university. if I catch that twat im going to replace his innards with said bag.

anybody ever tampered with your imaginary bike guys?

Probably old guy bought it, got bored, left it in garage.

A guy at my work in his 40s bought a brand new Yamaha 125R whatever it's called and prefers to take his car to work, some people are quite retarded, in fact anyone who bothers with a 125 is.

>either really good rider with indistinguishable chicken strips or the colonel himself

How much are they asking for it? That could also be a big indicator

Is anything in them? Or are they just empty plastic bags?

£2500, which is about £500 more than I'd pay for it.

my shitbike tops at 70 and highways are pure sketchy. but yeah next time I'm going to get a better brand

nah. I ride like 140kph every day for 40mins on a bike with no fairing... single cylinder even without baffles in the exhaust it was still fine, probably not too nice to drive behind with the racket it makes...
>agv stealthsv hardly makes a noise

empty just to make the situation worse. if there was sandwiches in or something it wouldn't be as bad. ive parked it in my vision... its just a waiting game now.
should I wear my Kevlar knuckled gloves to end the cretin?

Yes, you should

Most bikes aren't loud enough, but it's the wind noise that screws with your ears. After a long day of riding without ear pro, my tinnitus acts all fucky.

>tfw wearing ear protection while riding is illegal in my state
>Cruisers blasting retardly loud music out of their bikes speakers is perfectly acceptable though

What if a cager was trying to poison you?

Hey /dbt/, is this a decent price and bike for a beginner:

>sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/mcy/5591970972.html

Want to keep it low because I'm going to spend a bit on gear tbqh.

>when your friends see you on a street bike

this. never trust a fuckin' cager

Pretty nice, go for it.

If the miles aren't ridiculous, should be a decent deal

No hätä, itte chillaalen bemari langoissa koska tykkään pippelin venyttimistä. Ajattelin bemarin pyörää tossa yhes välis kun kuulin et ne on iha jees.

im fucking ready.

>implying EFI breaks

>which sumos are fuel injected
Pretty much anything 2013+. KTM EXCs, Yamaha WRs, Suzuki RMZs, etc.

Not DRZs.

It shows 12k miles on one of the pictures.

I was going to spring for an Fz6 for $3k
>sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/mcy/5582636214.html

I was shooting for those kawasaki's everyone recommends but they're going for at least $3k or higher for whatever reason.

That was crashed. Not sure if that matters to you. It matters to me.

looked cool at first and then i was like

what the fuck kind of 4 into one micro dick looking shit is that?

no fairings or anything, clearly missing parts, and that ghetto exhaust? yeah f that

Dbt i want this bike

charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/5539082699.html

Also can we have some general banana bike appreciation?

get it then fgt

I'm a big league stunna now

Holy fuck that sprocket
That engine probably has 25-30k on it with that gearing

>shifting to 5th gear before you get beyond a brisk walking pace

Lower gearing makes the engine turn faster so it would read higher than actual mileage if it was measured on the transmission of that bike.

DRs measure their speed/miles on the front wheel, so gearing doesn't matter.

Thanks for letting me know to avoid that.

Not too many options for bikes in my area, either salvaged title, high mileage, or some other issue or another.

I found this as well but the mileage scares the shit out of me:

>sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/mcy/5591451938.html

Think I'll spring for that Honda.

Ive noticed some people gear up on the rear sprocket to varying degrees, and i looked a little into the performance side of this, but i dont understand much about the maintenance bit.

Why does it wear out an engine so much faster? Are there any other wear issues associated with big sprockets?

What's the best chinkshit 125? I'm considering a Lexmoto ZSA for £600.

They read off the front tire, which would logically lead to the engine having turned a similar number of times to a reasonably geared one with 25k on it.
As in the odor reads low but the engine may be thrashed. Plus airheads and low speed aren't a good mix

Depends on the extent. It means your engine revs more per mph you ride which at a couple teeth difference doesn't really matter but when you drop the ratio like that you you make a big discrepancy between typical engine wear and miles indicated compared to normal

idk. it might be fun for a first bike.youd have to undue everything the asshole did to it though, starting with that fucking unfortunate exhaust. Try to pick it up for 2k, citing the disastrous "custom work".

Dual sports are literally designed to go slow on trails. It won't hurt them. Yes off-road mileage with lower gearing puts more wear on the engine with street mileage. I would still expect the engine to have tons of life left on it though. DRs last a long time.

>in my area

This is key. I've driven across the country to look at bikes. Never bought one in state. You can't just look on your local craigslist and call it good.

my first bike was a wuyang 125 and was absolutely shit. stupid me was stupid, buy and old Honda cg125.

>swear on my life on the tank it said 'please drive crafurry'

I have a dr650, they generate enough heat that if you ride trails that warrant that low of gearing the engine is going to overheat a lot if you don't stop and take Lots of breaks.
Also where the fuck do you get a sprocket that size for that bike?

>thought the same
>mfw all it needs is warmup and choke
>mfw even FI bikes need warmup and choke

There are places that will custom make sprockets.

>mfw EFI bikes don't need choke because they automatically enrich the fuel mixture when cold

>mfw the clutch on my bike doesn't work until the oil gets hot
>no choice but to let it sit and idle to warm up

Do you go about searching each states local craigslist or cycletrader or some such?

>manufacturer's face when

Use searchtemptest, its probably the best. But yeah forums and stuff too.

you're all faggots, but my kind of faggot

or beat true G and buy this sexy mother fucker

too bad he has some gay ass pipes on it and youll have to put out the 500 for vance and hines

sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/mcy/5589117877.html

It's not unbearingly loud but constant exposure will harm your hearing. Even on the highway it just sounds like the window wide open in a car.

atlanta.craigslist.org/sat/mcy/5592954810.html

What do you guys think about this bike? I've been riding a Honda mb5 around town but I would like the freedom to travel far. Anything I should look out for? They said they are just a title loan company and they repossessed the bike and it was still working when it was brought in, but beyond that is my legwork and risk.

the honda cb750f is what people see and think its a cafe racer. So they try to copy it and get themselves a supuer faggy cafe racer bike and a super faggy helmet and go around town all super faggy and shit.

but in fact, the cb750f or the 900f is the truth.

parts are rather cheap as fug, they're easy to work on, and when they're looking /running good, people ask fucktons of money for em
