Nice ant picture bro

>honda

I took the pic at a weird angle. Okay, here. First for beloved nekkid man.

>red.dit

you know how if you pull the lever part of the way so that when you give throttle it will spin up the engine but not all of the power will go to the wheel? That is is you slipping the clutch.

A slipping clutch is one that produces the same effect without you pulling the lever

And I'm still jelly of where you live/visited..

>stator

but how did that trip make you FEEL?

>he got his bike in a girls' color
lmao faget

>implying blue is not the best color in existence
Guy, come on. Get your shit together.

ty

that makes sense, thanks.. kind of how i give myself starting power in first gear on my little bike

what does it mean if the bike "falls" into neutral unexpectedly?

I've never seen a girl that color. Did you serve on the USS Enterprise?

better than this guy

Blue (fast) SV's are charged at the factory with mo' powah.

fucks sake, the impeller is touching the housing. What do?

This can't be normal, everything is seated properly.

Between 1st and 2nd gear? You didn't kick it into gear hard/far enough to get it all the way in. In any other gear? False neutral, which is pretty bad.

You didn't put your washers in the correct order

>dat thud of the skid plate hitting the rocks

Made me feel like I'm not a whiny chritian writer twirp

I'm glad I didn't pay to see that though. Sounds like it was worse than 21 Days Under the Sky

i feel like it's happened in 3rd or 4th

only a handful of times but enough to make me hmmmmmm

i thought it was a slipping clutch because i didn't know what it meant and i know the guy i bought it from used automotive oil

did you make the webm with sound of that yet?

>Sounds like it was worse than 21 Days Under the Sky
lol I watched that a couple days ago. So much talk about
>muh riding experience
>muh hardass
>bikes aren't good at going far but I did it anyway
>rain was cold. can't keep goign but did

best /dbt/ movies

i like PSYCHOMANIA

youtube.com/watch?v=gc8bHG4VB2w

>21 Days Under the Sky
I tried to watch that on Netflix. The Easyrider nostalgia and biker magazine prose irked me. Then I fell asleep.

never rode a bike before and Im thinking about copping this.

is this a terrible idea?

longisland.craigslist.org/mcy/5575375866.html

are Hondas even good bikes? a friend of mine told me they are shit but im not so sure if I believe him

>honda

Dust to Glory
Road

I don't have the footage, only Wombatanon does

>never rode a bike before and Im thinking about copping this.
go back to Veeky Forums before you kill yourself.

Are we talking about A Story Worth Avoiding?

Closer to the Edge, On Any Sunday.

Buying a bike like that is a fucking mess because every time something goes wrong you have to figure out what the fuck the previous owner did to it so you can unfuck it and order a part that won't collide with his custom shit
>$2600 for a 70s bike

Old bikes always need something...

I don't need to know anything about this "male" to hate him.

one day....

Seriously worst fucking movie I've seen in my entire life I should have been kicked out of the theater I was doubled over so hard laughing at how bad it was

unless you want to learn to hate riding, get something stock

...

torn between this and kawi

need to wait until september tho

Movie sponsored by BMW, no? Suzuki tried that, in the end they figured it would have been cheaper to give every customer they acquired a free RM125 than to have made that movie...

mkay so what do you suggest as a first bike that has a similar body style to that one?

I dont like the look of modern sport bikes

this POS ducati is being sold nearby for $2475

newhaven.craigslist.org/mcy/5541879456.html

sponsored by sena, klim, bmw.. maybe arai

Actually, BMW was smart and stayed completely 100% off the sponsorship

I'm tempted to never buy an Arai helmet for their sponsorship of this shitheap.

...

Lots of people say they left the theater early. Apparently they are offering refunds for people who feel they were bait and switched to watch a kumbaya faggotfest when it was supposed to be a legit epic moto adventure film

is that good or bad?

>copping this
Veeky Forumsggot

>125
In the US market they would have to pay someone to take that shit off their hands.

get an 80s shaft drive honda

>honda

>has never ridden a 125 MX bike
Literally the best bike.

Figured it out, that chinese bloke, sum-kunt forgot to put the circlip back on the end of the impeller.
I shouldn't drink while wrenching, shit like this always happens.

You fags are making me want to see that movie now

the word cop has been around before Veeky Forums you fucking idiot. also I dont even go on that board so clearly you know more than I do faggot

How do those douchenozzles get sponsored by Klim? I need free Klim gear and if they paid me to take a year off and moto the world I'd do it tomorrow.

Twisted Throttle sponsored it too. They posted in one of the threads on ADVrider saying they just wanted to build good bikes and had really nothing to do with the film kek

STONE

be more specific. can you name any models

Do you guys hate Honda because they are too perfect?

What movie are you guys talking about?

>not riding a glorious 450
cucked again

>Honda

They gave up and just make bland uninspiring bikes these days.

astoryfilm.com/about

this shitheap

>panda

I've never seen anyone outside of Veeky Forumsggots use that stupid term and I've only been to that board a few times and it's filled with insecure betacucks.
You also have no reason to get that bike other than for looks so you are a huge Veeky Forumsggot.

cb, magna, ascot.. fuck, even a silverwing, all can be found in good working order under $1500
then do your own cafe mods once you're used to it

Kawasaki is probably the "better" bike for city riding but you can use YEC on the R6 and tuning YCC-T is hilariously simple.

idk what that means, can you get rid of the low midrange?

>feel sad
>ride
>feel happy
Is this normal because I could get used to it.

kawasaki is the only of the 4 jap bikes i've never owned

oddly enough it's the one i goo over the most lately

>human nature

Anyone else
>>Delkevic

Loud in the bottom, not so much at the top

Vibrates the god damn ground at nothing

way too loud 4me

pretty normal.. bikes are the best

>captch 369.. damn yo fine move it to you sing it to me one mo time get low

Funny, I've also never owned one, I've had a Honda, a Suzuki, 3 Yamaha's, and a Triumph.

Now I'm curious what brands /dbt/ has owned?

The only con I've heard was that they're underpowered.
Other than that the bikes are very well balanced which is pretty much a Honda thing, is that why they're bland?

YEC is the Yamaha Racing ECU. It's a really simple switch to flash your ECU to a streetable version so you can do remapping, speedo calibration, etc, without having a Power Commander and increasing your insurance premiums (if applicable where you live).

YCC-T is just electronic throttle. Some people get mad about them but I kind of like mine honestly. They're REALLY easy to tune though.

>can you get rid of the low midrange?
Get rid of? R6 don't have any anyway. You do your remaps to try and add some in.

Realistically all the 600s feel really similar to each other and most people couldn't tell the differences. Buy whichever you like the most and don't worry too much about it.

I used to mainly ride Hondas but I really love my R1. I was in the market for a CBR1000RR originally but the R1 was right place right time.

>human nature
Pretty much man haha. I can't get into most Kawasakis besides KR1S but one of the old ZX6R was the bike that really made me want to start riding.

Look at my glorious WERKS clutch basket. It's a thing of beauty. All machined and shiny.

Why couldn't suzuki just make it right in the first place.

2 yamaha, 3 honda, 1 suzuki, 1 harley

Getting used to it (or maybe going deaf)

Had to get rid of shit-tier ancient TBR, bike handles better

Honda a shit

tru

What helmets are you guys wearing?
I need to buy a helmet for the safety course in June, the most comfortable helmet I've worn were from Arai but they're expensive as fuck.

Lazer monaco because cheap, light, and flips up.

went out and rode around for 25 miles seeing how the new Engine Ice is treating my bike
i live in a climate of 4 month long summers at a consistant 110F or hotter all day
>mobs it through the long, empty twisties at the airport
i went balls to the wall high as piss revving, gave no fucks.
>temp gauge never even got to half way
holy shit im fucking IMPRESSED. it really does reduce your operating temps, and by quite a bit too.
>feels when a brand actually delivers exactly what it advertises
guise if you ride at high revs a lot or live in a hotter climate i strongly suggest Engine Ice as your coolant.
>not a shill
>manage a large auto/light truck repair shop

One of these

bell qualifier dlx

soundly webm up thur

i have icon, this triggers /dbt/

Custom fit bell star carbon, it's fucking shit but comfy.

Icon Airmada. Turbo comfy if it's not too cold. Scarf it though and it's the single most comfy helmet I've ever worn.
