i'm a lost child /dbt/, take me under your wing

>implying
Nah I gotta go to a buddy's birthday party to get piss drunk, and I'm gonna take take the bike out anyway, so it's getting ridden.

I gotta sell him on learning to ride so I can have more bike friends.

Holy shit new IL user!
Try looking for SV650s. There's a lot of really cheap nice looking ones in the area

>urbana
Holy fuck other IL user.

all those that you mentioned

urbana ohio my dude

i want a supersport though and i don't want to look squid

i'm leaning towards ninja though becuase i've never owned a kawi before

Fugg you had me excited :(

I think /dbt/ has reached a record number of DRZs.
>i had one before it was cool

Squid is an attitude, not a bike.

all i've had today is pizza and ice cream

and I'm going to post my bike for sale

CBR is most comfy
Gixxxxxer is most squid
Kawi is usually fastest
R1 sounds best (2008+)

sry i should've linked the listing

:^(

If the only bike I have is in the shop waiting for parts, am I temporarily a nobike?

I got work until 8 tomorrow, but if you want to go for a late ride my email is on the map.

I definitely might hit you up familam.

are you gonna be a scumbag and sell it as is with filthy carbs?

Gsxr is most comfy with good power
CBR is level headed choice with decent power
Kawi is ludicrous speed and track ergos
R1 (2009-2014) is pretty heavy but manageable
R1 (2015+) is 600 nimble

>r1
>supersport

So many drz's, so few that ride enduro bikes without riding them on road

sportbike = 600, supersport = 1000 is how I usually differentiate them

CBR unless the very recent models are different, CBR has most upright ergos

>most level headed choice
This doesn't mean anything.

i have to get up soon but i cant help but keep window shopping for sikk bikes and sikk gear ! !

hey the carbs are actually clean

>drz
>cool
never have been and never will be

good man.. its getting frustrating seeing lots of these ads here on cl that say their carbs need to be cleaned. . .

im thinking about putting my bike up on the market today too user, now to start thinking about what to spend the moneys on.

awesome, I'll be a special snowflake forever then

i put street tires on my dirtbikes,, now i just need to get plates that say
>TARD

I used to think drz sm was the fucking shit when I first got into motorcycles. then I realized there's many better options for sumo

still would pick one up for $2-2.5k

>this actually got made

Holy shit this made my day

w h y

Supersport = 600

Superbike = 1000

>going off of race class specifications

ye cuz this 1 is taken

I paid $2700 for mine. There's better options for sumo, but a 450mx conversion isn't a good DD, and the husky/KTM offerrings are few and far between as well as $$$

>ruining

no cunt. 90% of it is just useless clutter. I bet you're the same cunt that complains every time. Nobody reads it and it's pointless.

kill yoruself

youtube.com/watch?v=RukYj7dFWSg

did you torque those to 100 ft lbs?

I torqued them to twist-of-the-wrist tight, ya know?

im thinking about buying a motard kit for my 300 after i sell my cb400, figure it should be some fun riding that through the twisties every now and again and its not exactly a big job to do the conversion

If you count how many DRs and DRZ/green DRZs as well I'd say like almost 1/6 of the hasbikes here rides one of the two

I've had them for awhile.
My original one years ago that got me hooked.
Think you had a weird looking ninja 500 around this time or might even of been before that.

I know how that feels ;)

Friend just sent this to me
>punch guy wearing motocross gear
>get obliterated

fucking do it bro

you might be right about that, but having posted in this thread for like 4 years i've developed the suspicion that we have a ton of lurkers that don't post and ride mainly sportbikes

my old nasty yellow drz that got me through most of college. Thing just looked poopy but was actually nice. 2000 drz400s, bought for $2000 with 1900 miles. Beat the crap out of it and sold it for $2800

>slater

fucking lol

>go to road America for superbike double header last year.
>it rains Saturday and I miss most of Sunday
>get buell 2 weeks later
>ride to road America yesterday
>torrential downpour all the way there
>was sunny for a little bit then started raining right as I left that night
>ride back up today and it's a little cloudy but it clears up by the time the races start.
>beautiful day of racing
>meet a guy from Ohio with a turbo Tl1000r
>tell him he has a death wish adding power to a TL
>get to ride the course for a little bit
>starts to get a little bit cloudy when I get close to Milwaukee
>starts raining as soon as I get home
>have to cancel ride with grill
>the universe does not want me going to Road America...
>8/10 will go again next year, just hope the rain let's up this time

muh toofiddy
didn't know you had others before the Kawi

man, not even trolling I used to get asked if this was a Ducati all the time. kinda miss that

Buy whatever you want and like. If anyone calls you a squid for owning what you like tell them to fuck off for being such a colossal faggot.

I have no idea what's going on, but seems like an average day in Russia

It rained when I went to superbike 2 years ago as well, it just rains for superbike weekend. I'll be going up next weekend and forecast is fucking 95.

>have v twin sport bike
>only been called a ducati once
Idkhtf.

actually bought the yellow one to ride while the klx400 was down being rebuilt since I left it with a guy who took a year to rebuild it cause his back fucked up and I was too far from home to fuck with it. So just bought the yellow drz cause it was cheap and sold it when the klx was fixed.

If it was red it would be
>mfw every time I ride guzzi's some fucking redneck asks if it's a dooo cat eee

how has buell ownership been?

If it's not red you're SOL
Ducati's come in any color you wish, so long as it is red.

Clutch weep the first month, oil leak back in March that got fixed late April (without pulling the rear header). Other than that nothing really interesting other than my race bodywork for it. And I will be tracking it.
What if I paint my body work orange?

Is orange red?

>tfw im a third new user, kankakee
Just bought a '00 shadow vlx a couple weeks ago but it's sitting til I take my classes in early July and get my license. I can't wait, really

At least half red.

Found the turbo tl guy on tl planet.
tlplanet.com/forum/main-forums/tls-tlr-main-forum/1318156-213rwhp-turbo-tl1000r

We need to do a Chicago/northern Illinois southern Wisconsin /dbt/ meet. Or go to Slimey Crud or something. There's so many anons around here.

>tfw in the collage
feels gud mang

>tlplanet.com/forum/main-forums/tls-tlr-main-forum/1318156-213rwhp-turbo-tl1000r
Is that the same dude with the turbo ZRX1200R? Dyno setup looks the same.

Is the guy doing the collage in here?

>gets punched off the bike
>doesn't immediately helmet-butt the dude into puree-of-douche to fertilize the grass

Admirable restraint, that.

Just bought two 1 liter fuel bottles for my biku
>realize after ordering from amazon I need little paper funnels to go with them
>is an ADD ON ITEM

Fug what do I need that's $25 anons?

i'm failing college

...

get a phone mount if you don't have one.

other than that just order some other bike maintenance things you might need later

Sorry friend. Sucks for you but you're not what I asked for.

300 sumo would be pretty awesome

>you're not what I asked for.
my dad said the same thing

Where are these posts.

>not the forty-eight

Why even live?

I'd be down

>Just bought a '00 shadow vlx a couple weeks ago but it's sitting til I take my classes in early July and get my license. I can't wait, really
Where you taking the class at? Also I'm down as fuck. I still have my 70 mile route saved along with some other fun shit that's hidden around this horrible flat grid.

feels

sorry user

in le archive friend ;) *tips*

Scout

why do you always fuck with the OP

Because there's literally zero need for any stupid shit to be in there. Take your autism medication faggot

you're the reason there has to be 8 different "i'm thingken about getten a boik Veeky Forums wdy think?" threads each day
if three extra lines in the OP hurts you so much then you should probably gb2 reddit where you can downvote them

>admitting you're a reddit nigger

Ok newfriend

The extra lines in the OP stop nobikes asking us stupid questions.

The only reason you don't like it being there is because you want idiots to post so that you can give them even more retarded replies.

You are cancer m8, your shit posting is half the reason dbt has been shit lately, go back to /tv/

Fuck right off you australian faggot.

/dbt/ has always been shit and will always be shit. So fuck right off. I've been here for years and its always the same. /dbt/ is shit and it always will be.
