is he a manlet? Do you have to be a manlet to be good at motogp?
Jaxon Ramirez
no, and no.
Liam Walker
Rossi is on the tall side compared to other pilots >i (and most of dbt) would still tower over him
Adam Robinson
do you not know what a 2 stroke cylinder head looks like?
Look more closely at the bottom pipe. It's not wrapping around to the other side but going straight up to the cylinder head.
In this pic blue is the engine outline and the black circles are where the pipe mates to the cylinder.
Aren't they going to still be sold in the US market though?
Josiah Anderson
probably wouldn't hurt, horse jockeys are tiny and it's a similar concept.
Dominic Morales
>tfw you'll never race motogp because you were born a normal sized man
Fucking end it lads.
Michael Miller
>the crankcase is still uneven between the cyls >that is still the most cockeyed twin i've ever seen >in your scheme the bashplate has a convenient gap right in front of the head Can we agree that's a shitty render and end it?
Julian Powell
baz is a big guy 4u
Christian Cook
>because you were born a normal sized man yup, that's the reason. totally not because you are a slowfag
Adrian Lewis
it may be a shitty render but it's not a fucking parallel twin.

Gonna ride to work tomorrow for the first time in the hope of gaining a little street cred.

Henry Adams
Well that's cool and shit but... why
I wanted black or tri but it was sold out. Repsol looks pretty nice in person though.
>riding season Fuck that. I'm riding in the rain. >plebian choice Yeah true, look above. Thanks though, and yeah the YZF is hot as fuck,it's what I originalky wanted. Tbh I don't know what you are talking about with the 100/80 130/70 thing tho
Isaac Nguyen

Blake Walker
>Repsol looks pretty nice in person though.
It does, until it gets ever so slightly dirty, then it looks totally shitty. My buddy still rides his Repsol CBR125, and he rides it daily so the orange wheels get dirty really quickly, then it looks awful.
Also you'll feel like a total tool when you pull up at the lights, and somebody on a Repsol 600 or 1000 pulls up next to you. That's the main reason I didn't get one.
Ethan Morgan
>buy a bike in december >it finally gets above freezing so I bundle up and ride out >end up staying out after dark >have to ride home in the rain at night after it dropped like 10 degrees
Logan Davis
AH HA HA HA HA, dude, my low limit for riding in my town is 27F, as long as there's a clear path, I'll ride with snow on the ground XD Gotta ride when you can man.
Nolan Hall
Oh,that fucking blows. Well it's technically my first bike, so I planned to take good care of it anyway. I will be able to wash it daily. And it's fine. Here in Norway I will be lucky to see a fellow biker at all. >tfw a guy on a duke 1290 nodded to me today >t-thanks you too
William Lee
Confirmed. 60mph windchill is a painful.
Jordan Parker
>you'll feel like a total tool when you pull up at the lights
the reason you never get a 125cc ""sportbike"", even gs500 will laugh at you hard because you can't keep up on your REPSOL SUPASPORT
Logan Wright
I wouldn't nod at a scooterfag like you
Austin Martinez
I didn't mind having a 125 sports bike because it was fun to ride, but I made sure I didn't get a race livery because it just wrote cheques the bike couldn't cache. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting that body style though.
Jonathan Butler
when i wave scooters it's always by accident.
Angel Hughes
>hurr muh superior height >implying it's your height that makes you a completely shit and slow as hell rider There are quite a few tall, fast riders, you just suck dick
Josiah Perez
Err... ok? It's not like I asked for a nod or anything
kek, he didn't wave though. And people in Norway don't really care about engine size, they are just happy to see fellow bikers riding around. Happy place.
Evan Jackson
race me irl fgt
Juan Garcia
Hey I would do it for fun senpai. I don't mind getting shat on
Jaxon Nelson
>I don't mind getting shat on hey buddy, wana make $10 tonight?
Samuel Richardson
just learn how to wheelie to gain rep. You'd prob be able to get it higher than most users here if you're not a puss and you can use the clutch properly.
Zachary Bailey
would an avg temp of 0~℉ be too cold for regular winter riding? Wind chill can drop it to -30 easy though
Cooper Edwards
even if you had great gear for the cold, you tires would be like hockey pucks.
Angel Long
yeah you'll die
Joshua Morales
Oi lad, sounds good
Why. Why do I need rep. Why do I need to be cool. Sure I would love to willy and and ride fast and all that nonsense, but for gods sake, I'm just glad I got a bike. Bikes are fun. I wanted a bike. For fun. Not to be cool
Jaxson Reed
wheelies ARE fun you nigger
Hudson Martinez
...
Daniel Torres
Did you read the post? I would willy for fun. I would love too. But not to gain rep, as user said
Xavier Hernandez
>earplugs all the time >become of the very VIP tinnitus club anyway
God damn it.
Robert Diaz
Why are bike engines mounted backwards? Why is the outlet port facing forward and the intake backwards?
Camden Young
>never earplugs >ears are fine
I don't have a stupid loud bike tho
Jaxon Richardson
reminder that honda a shit
Joseph Cruz
for fun
Asher Sullivan
>just do it pussy
Benjamin Bennett
Probably fuel delivery. You have a carb or a throttle body behind the intake, followed by possibly an airbox.
Chase Foster
did super america meet ever happen?
just wait
Hudson Long
Why not place it forwards... Where air is rushing towards?
Connor Watson
I do. Sometimes when I ride near walls the sound of the exhaust bounces back and it vibrates my entire skull.
I wonder how professional pilots deal with these things.
Ryder Myers
Because having the exhaust in the middle would make the fucking thing melt along with your balls, now it's in the front where you can get airflow on the headers, also the induction and fuel delivery systems are tucked safely behind the engine away from debris and mud. There's a reason all inline engines and thumpers have the headers towards the front and all V-engines to the side: airflow.
Ryder Cook
here you go, header pointing backwards. happy?
Asher Edwards
>did super america meet ever happen? Supposed to happen in a few weeks.
Lincoln Reyes
>125cc repsol
Why.
Benjamin Scott
I don't think so, did it die? >yuropoors do fun shit >muhrica: w- we can t- too! >fail miserably >sem2 most likely a resounding success
SUPER AUSMEET when?
Adam Jackson
Thinking about it.
We'd have to do regional ones. Nobody is gonna ride 40 hours to hang out
Easton Morris
given by his comments afterwards, he's a little bitch. Also a yuropoor
Charles Wilson
My vtwin goes down and then to the tail, but this
Anthony Cook

John Bennett
Yes >most badass engine "face" ever
Connor Gray
still towards the front technically
Kayden King
>Yeah boss ima need 2 weeks off to ride cross country for 2 days of camping Yeah sure
Asher Gray
1983 Nighthawk 650 with 19,000 miles for $1300, should I go for it?
Eli Hernandez
>Not getting 5 weeks of paid vacation every year How's it feel like being poor?
Gabriel Hernandez
>Never wear earplugs >even when fabricating shit, using angle grinders, air compressors, etc >Still no tinnitus
Nathan Cruz
Heat reasons yes
Honda actually mounts the engine "backwards" in their MotoGP bikes to reduce the gyro effect (crankshaft spinning opposite direction than wheels) and it makes a slight but noticeable difference in turning. Tradeoff is complex engineering that wouldn't be viable for streetbikes.
Lincoln Bell
>it takes him a week to ride 40 hours kek
Elijah Adams
That's what the yuros did, don't have it in you?
Nicholas Cook
More like >hey, yuros are having fun >we should have fun too >let's meet up whole continent to explore, no borders or bullshit laws >hei, guise let's go to de snek :DDDDD
Brayden Diaz
It is cumulative, so enjoy being deaf the last half of your life.
Jose Bennett
Also the effect is so negligible it's innoticeable outside track environments with race machines and world-class riders
Christian Roberts
>Implying I expect to live past 50
Austin Wright
Feels bad. Hopefully graduating and getting a real job will change it >fell for the college meme
Leo Moore

Nolan Young
>>sem2 most likely a resounding success We'll need to wait and see the survival rate before we go saying that.
Luis Moore
>no borders Applies to EU, too. >no bullshit laws Yeah really depends on the state. >snake Why even? There are an endless multitude of twisty roads equal to or greater than the overhyped and overpopulated Snake.
Logan Robinson
yeah that on top of that, just not worth it for street bikes.
Brayden Diaz
That sucks lad, I'm sorry.
Restricted. And Norway is honestly not poor.
Blake Rodriguez
>Snake >Why even
That's the point he was trying to make, I think.
Nathaniel Rodriguez
You'll need very good heated gear to not be miserable in the cold. And even then any small ice patch in the road could be a death sentence.
Austin Stewart
Just because your country isn't poor doesn't mean you aren't.
Dylan Gutierrez
If you're in mid-California, route 88 has some of the most amazing mountainside curves I've seen in a long while.
Wyatt Fisher
EU is full of borders >As an example, until the 28th i'm not allowed to leave my country >Anyone who had to pass through France had to get helmet stickers >No modifications, Italy and germany don't like those >most passes are a pissing contest between forest patrol and local police over who can screw with more motorcyclists Fucking hell, i'd easily abandon my family to fuck off in one of your deserts and all you can think of is le twisty canyon road?
Parker Walker
Well, I'm not. Does that work? My bike choice doesn't really have anything to do with money.
Caleb Brown
>too young to buy big bike >still able to buy brand new Jap 125 >poor Not him but I dunno, m8.
Jeremiah Martinez
They're actually going to the dragon, not the snake. And it's not just riding that one road and leaving obviously. The dragon is just a landmark that most riders want to visit at some point, so they're going to meet in that area and then explore the Appalachian twisties.
Landon Wood
Thanks for believing in me and my economical safety, user
Ayden Long
except 125cc bikes are cheap as hell even brand new.
Zachary Reed
Do the French actually enforce the helmet reflector shit? I intend to have some with me when I go but I'm not putting them on unless I have to.
Jose Brown
>thinking a brand new jap 125 is alot of money
Lucas Hall
>>sem2 most likely a resounding success Yeah just like the first one >bunch of anons riding super slow >half of them crash >one dies
Jeremiah Williams
I bet you had a whole bunch of them when you were 18, right?
Ryder Morris
I had a dirtbike that was more expensive than that turd when I was 16.
Luis Morgan
It cost me 5.3 k dollarydoos. And as I said, bike choice has nothing to do with money.
