GODDAMMIT I JUST WANT TO RIDE

IT'S MY WEEK OFF I BOUGHT THE BIKE I PAID THE INSURANCE I SHOULD BE ABLE TO RIDE

REEEEEEEEEEEE

>watching the bump limit on almost every dbt thread so you can force your bad meme

I bet it's an Australian.

what?

Thats why i ride a harley.

>needed a red flag, multiple crashes, a restart, and jlo's worst ride in years for a SATELLITE honduh to win the race

t. drop

Probably harley spam user.

>brits
Doesn't really matter. The only ones who get fucked over this are themselves, the rest of yurp is merely slightly inconvenienced. Also the brits weren't even present at the first SEM and haven't contributed to the second. Not even sure if any are coming

TASH is CTA

reminder to make fun of wranon when the fuggs up his test today

>Ybrgrill

Nope, tash is to poor to afford printer ink.

The aussie won as he isnt no fair weather rider faggot like the rest.

>haven't contributed to the second
Like anyone has besides the one guy who organised the whole thing.

is that a pic of 6xl user?

i don't think so

>the one guy who organised the whole thing.
Hello :^)

> tfw can't come to this one
I probably wouldn't have shown up to SEM3000 either if I hadn't put that much effort into organizing shit 2bh.

Here it is pretending to work

Sheit is that today? Good thing I got off uni early, I smell greentext incoming.
> implying the exam wasn't canceled because he drove like a shitcunt and got done for speeding several times
> implying he gets to ride his bike even if he passes
> implying his mum will let him

>33 points after a win
dont think hes much of an any weather rider 2bh

Is his mum hot?

He probably spends all the practice sessions spamming Harleys and GS500s in /dbt/ so he doesn't know the tracks when it's race time.

GOING TO PICK UP PAPERWORK FOR BIKE IN 2 HOURS

HYPE

Would it stop you if she wasn't?

>after my lowside the trottle control and front break lever doesnt work
WHAT DO I DO

>break
i guess it's BROKEN? hahahh

Pump/bleed

you think bleeding the brakes will solve the problm for the front lever? it goes all the way in without pressure

any way I can do this at home?

What about the throttle control?
>:^)

If there's a bubble/you spilt fluid, bleeding is the only solution

What if they're gonna fail you?

Here it is enjoying afternoon sun

qt!
buy it some farkles

Is that common during a lowside and does it match my symptoms? what about the throttle control? are they easy to replace?

throttle is 2 wires. are they pulling? need some more info than 'its not working.'

I wouldn't call it common, but having the reservoir on it's side is a great way to kill your brakes
Most throttle locks are electronic if oem and mechanic if aftermarket...
In both cases i'd just buy a new one

I know that feel bro
>ordered summer gear
>delivery my take a week longer
>only have winter gear
>it's 36 degree Celsius the whole week

what should i get?
heaps faster than the gs500 i traded hey

meaning no matter the input on the the throttle the RPM's dont change

the lowside unhooked the two wires (they are wired in paralell right)
so the breaks arn't THAT bad? man im hopin this is an easy fix I need to get to school next semester and I cant afford a new bike or huge replacements

forgot to say I put the wires back in

fender elim / integrated tail light
grips

hmm not that much i'd do actually. usually all the blinkers gotta go and maybe the mirrors but the kawi's pretty well set up stock.

so you look down at the throttle body thingy (forget what its called) and it should be twisting

I guess I'll become a criminal.

Tomorrow my YBR 125 goes in for its MOT before I sell it.

I know it's only a 125 and I have a much better bike now, but I feel somewhat sad about selling it. My first bike, 11 months of hard running by a newbie. It did me well, but times changed.

Can't help but feel sad and worry for its future.

what's your next bike gonna be?

I got it 2/3 weeks ago

How much are you selling the YBR for? It's probably the best 125cc commuter scooter without being a scooter you can get.

There's a shitty one in my dealership for 1,5k

It's a 2006 with 25.3k miles on it (UK).

Gonna list it on eBay and Gumtree at £800 or best offer. Realistically looking for 650-750

ebay.co.uk/itm/YAMAHA-YBR-125-LEARNER-COMMUTER-LOW-MILES-TRADE-BARGAIN-PLEASE-READ-2009-/291741294822?hash=item43ed22e0e6:g:w78AAOSw3mpXFQOH

That's basically my bike, but that's an '09.

Mine has black clocks, full steel exhaust and different bar ends.

I have fitted it with Michelin Pilot Streets, sub 1k mile chain and sprockets and it will come with new front brake pads to be fitted. (Was planning on servicing the fronts. They work, just not outstandingly.)

Took my R3 in to get detailed and fucking dropped it. kill me son, do it fast

> dropping bikes
LMAO retard.

Shit happens, that's life.

As long as it's not pissing vital fluids she'll be fine to ride her home.

HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE! HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE! HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE! HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE! HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE! HONDA IS THE BEST MOTOCYCLE OUT THERE!

well now you actually have something to detail. honestly what IS there to detail to begin with short of painting it? wash it and clean the chain?
get your clutch recall taken care of.

>factory yamahas and ducatis couldn't stay afloat when a SATELLITE Honda could

Lel

Slightly unrelated but what's the appeal behind the R3/Ninja 300 or is it a mostly American/Australian thing where you don't have to start on 125's like here in the UK?

Kawasaki would like a word.

First drop. only had my licence 2 months. call the cops

broke the indicator off and scuffed the side. I still left it there because he thinks he can fix it

well i say detail, but its getting paint protection. make that rain and dirt just fall off

Australian, so i have to get a LAMS bike. R3 is really comfy, and has a lot of little things that the class competitors dont. Looks mint too

you are mistaken. jorge had a difficult time but still got some points.

they're manageable bikes, and roads in america are terrible on a 125. i shit on em all the time but i did the ninja 250 meem and happy i did.

Change the indicator of yourself man, it's easy as shit.

Literally just take the side fairings off, unplug the broken indicator and unscrew it, then reverse the process with a replacement indicator.

Im getting LED indicators and gonna put them on myself. i meant he can fix the scuffing

Good morning /dbt/ pham.

Spurdolandian here, when you get your license you can only get something with

WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY /DBT/ ?

I JUST MADE MY A2 - WILL EAT NOW AND THEN RIDE THE TT

Same laws as me. EU laws still apply in the UK lol.

47hp is enough for me at 21 anyway.

>legalfags

WHEN WILL THE SECOND TICKET ARRIVE ALREADY

thanks user, the throttle works (I can see the cable go in and out but is only responsive when It goes out a lot) so the throttle is SUPER loose and the idle I had on it before makes it stall easily

hold me /dbt/ I think my engine is fucked up

I DON'T KNOW
MAYBE THE SECOND WILL COME TOGETHER WITH THE THIRD ONE

WE A2 ANYWAYS NAO

What part of Engerland are you, brah?

Maybe post a video of it for us.

COME TO LUXEMBOURG

Trafford, Manchester.

there were 2 supermotos you could have taken a pic of.

what use would a video be, the throttle is loose and the engine is running like shite (idle notch I had let it run at 1.3k RPM's idle but now it would stall at that idle)

dbt never skimp on tires, because that drizzle rain will fuck your shit up ;-;

>supermoto
nice meme
who gives le shit

I AM EATING NAO
MAYBE THIS WEEKEND

>because that drizzle rain will fuck your shit up
Only if you're shit, m8.

>implying I didn't

ayy

why did nobody ever tell me there was a wankel dirtbike?
it was called the Hercules 303
fuck i want one

it was the tires I swear!

I was stopping and as the weight was transferring to the front tire I low sided, that would have neber happend in good weather.

The tires are also like 10 years old

Oh I've heard you lost your license, so I should put you back on the Sem list.

A-FUCKING-GAIN

what bike?
if it's carbed take the carbs out, disconnect the throttle cable and reconnect it. make sure to adjust for freeplay

No excuses, breh. Mine are 7 years old, cracked and squared off. Rode for two hours in heavy to moderate rain the other day and didn't crash. Better brake control and forward planning is the answer.

Ex500, how would the carbs get fucked up?

>tfw I just remember I turned the petlock to off after the lowside
o im laffin
moderate and heavy rain isnt bad m8

its the light drizzle rain where the lowsides happen because you underestimate how slippery the roads are infront of the stoplights + all that gunk comes up

on a scale of 1 - 10, 1 being get them done asap and 10 being it's okay to leave until next month

how okay do you reckon it is to ride on this daily?

the carbs would be fine, but the throttle cable may have been pulled from its guide at some stage. This would cause it to be loose or even completely non responsive
