First for Aprilia a best

Hnnnnnnnnggggggg

Strap bottles to the sides, niqqa

No

Nah. Just get a petrol can and bungee it to the tail.

my current tank has a hole tho

Put pipe from extra canister to tank hole

>those chiken stripz

Didn't think so

>comicket
>weebs in the streets raving about pokeymans

>BMW that is actually dirty
>Madrid references

It is impossible to have a bigger boner.

Anyhow, rode about 200km today. Went to the Southern tip of the island and while the ride there was cool, the place itself was pretty meh. Did a 360 and turned around heading to the Northern part of the island. Took every single dirt road I found on the way, found an enormous pile of dirt in the middle of some fields.

>mfw this guy isn't coming to SEM

When SEM?

Soonish.

Spanish*

Ah, too soonish. If everyone survives this one for a third I'll go.

Tomorrow

with the red scribbles in front it looks liked SUPER FURMEET to me

once I realized it wasn't that it was a lot less interesting to me

>continuing the blogpost

The worst idea available was of course, to go up the thing on a street bike. (see ). Once making my peace with the prospect of dumping my bike and myself down the whole thing FKG-style, I went up.

It was terrifying. Once up there, I understood why the enormous pile of dirt.

2bh I could get a ferry and improvise 1800km of riding, but it would be >extremely painful and horrible with this bike and my back. Besides, you'll have plenty of interesting characters there already.

Sounds like fun, m8. You just need some semi dirt tires on that thing and you'll be sweet.

Yeah but the suspension is horrible for that though. No travel at all and every minor bump feels like I'm trying to destroy the bike. Can't find many dual sport tires on 100/80 and 130/70 on 17" either.

Anyhow I made my way to where I wanted to go and fucked around on the town until I came across an alley well I didn't know what I was expecting, but it was surprising to find the sea.

Wich?

Why are y'all's tyres so small?

Left

Left.

Continued to go nowhere in particular until I stumbled upon this other road.

senpai it may not be worth it. If I go down that route I'll get a proper dualsport.

Small power delivery / weight / chassis / everything. No point on a 160/60 rear with 21hp. I suppose a wider front tire would be cool but my rim is pretty skinny too, 110/70 sits with the edges mostly unused.

Anyhow it turned out to be a scenc road with a ton of viewpoints and all my pictures ended up sucking bigtime except maybe 2 in which I angled them all wrong.

At one point the narrow bifurcated and I took the narrower path. 50m into it there was this enormous sign

>PROPERTY OF SPANISH ARMED FORCES
>DO NOT PROCEED
>DEMOLITION AND LIVE FIRE DRILLS MAY BE TAKING PLACE
>ROAD BLOCK IN 250m

Of course I had to proceed :3.

>clutch cable for my zx9r estimated delivery went from July 25th to July 18th.
I'm much happier now.

Now I just need to quit being lazy and see if i can weld my DRZ's kickstand back on. I really don't want to pay out the ass for used one.

these would be really nice with a better camera.

>tfw can't fabric fo shit
your plan was so nice

>that pic
muh dock

Thank you user. A camera is in the plans.

You should have been there!

Then I stumbled upon this this evil looking motherfucking goat. Thank god it was siesta time otherwise god knows what could have happened.

>You should have been there!
y-yes
giv gasoline money and I will come with you next time, I promise m8
nice goat btw

shit meant to reply to I'm off, now back to the scheduled Rossiposting.

Finally sorted out my mpv and ffmpeg installs on Ganoo/Luhnicks so expect some more webmemes from MotoGP / Moto2 in the future.
Need to buy a new cam mount as well.

GROM FUCK YEAH !

Is this actually a good first bike? I'm trying to spend as little money as possible

did tfw no grom user get a grom

pretty decent 2bh

cuckhold: the post

Looks like an SV, but with a single sided swingarm
With some love it could turn out pretty goat
It seems to be a vtwin, which is very good if you plan to keep it as a workhorse

My friend's dad who has been riding for his whole life told me to get a DRZ 400 as my first dualsport.
Is that a good first bike?

Why don't they make rad looking mopeds anymore?

I would not be caught dead riding the gay style ones.

aerodynamics

I dropped my bike and the only damage done was the left mirror shattered; the right mirror is still good.

Can I legally ride with just a right mirror? I know you can have just a left one but no one ever comments about the right mirror.

Fetch one quick, if you get stopped say it was vandalism and that you're heading to the shop


In 20 years i've never been stopped, not even while taking my trackbike to a meet

>my friend's dad
I've been trying to figure out if this means you're a cuck to no avail

i would flip that upside down, bottom is basically arcane technology with a lawnmower engine strapped to it.

So, total newb here, i'm in the market for new grips and maybe even new bars
I've measured with a caliber that where the bars are attatched they're 22mm, as expected, but measuring the throttle tube and left side they come up as 26mm...
What measure am i supposed to go by?

...

Need an entry level DS helmet, I'm looking at AFK, Speed And Strength, LS2.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Mainly commuting, will rarely be going over 60-70, rarely doing long distance.

Why are women so fucking shit at riding?

>Why are women so fucking shit at riding?
They can't handle their emotions so they can't handle the horses

Lel. Awful at everything.
Literally, ride in straight line, stop,
Can't do it, drop bike.

...

Women have like 10x the ego of a man, but none of the bravado
They panic, drop whatever they're doing and cower

I'm going to look at this tomorrow to replace the dead SV.

What do you think?

how does it make you feel that cagers dont like us?

>What do you think?
Wonderful bike
>you don't desrerve it

What age are you? Nobody likes anybody, m8.

That second guy looked like a tryhard.
regardless
>can't drive themselves because their arms are too big to turn a wheel
lol

Are fender eliminators worth getting?

Yes if you want cops to scrutinize you even more.

They're worth making yourself for $5 and not paying $80 for a bracket and some bolts. Ignore the guy saying cops will look at you, its probably more likely they will look at you if the have the giant ugly stock fender on because they will think you're a retard.

>Ignore the guy saying cops will look at you,
Don't ignore all the forum posts of people bitching about how cops tried to ticket them because of fender eliminators.

By the time you've added all the parts to your fender eliminator to make it actually comply with the relevant legislation, then guess what? You've just made a fucking FENDER!

Hahaha, laws. As long as you have your plate lit up and the turn signals 10 inches apart its fine. Stop being autistic redditors. No cop cares, as every single bike in the country has a fender eliminator.

I don't know how the rules are at your place, but here the license plate has to be easily visible and illuminated, nothing else.

LS2 and AFX look the best. I like my Bell MX-9. Can remove the visor because at those speeds when you aren't facing forward the wind will twist your neck, keep that in mind when you get a helmet with visor. otherwise it's great for the sun and for debris kicked in front of you in the woods

>he doesn't know the plate becomes the fender

Helmet cam actually caught something mildly interesting today.

The hawk was trying to eat a snek on the side of the road and I scared it as I went by causing it to take off and drop the snek.

>As long as you have your plate lit up
look m8 cops already don't like sport bikes. You're basically just asking them to pull you over and question you about the legality of your setup.
Simply google fender eliminator cops to see the myriad of people pulled over.
Whether ticketed or not, it's a pain in the dick.

>Never have i ever been pulled over
>Any sort of cop interaction has been quick and polite
>Most of them have no idea what your bike is, nor do they care
Forums are full of tryhard faggots

I opted for ths AFX-FX41 actually, thanks!

...

definitely

Ok, most comfy, light adventure bike or touring? Anything sub 500lbs that would still be comfy?

Looking for 2nd bike so something a few years old that's available.

Same here. Maybe because we have a national police force in Canada and they have quite a lot of training.

OR those people were riding like idiots and the cops just needed an excuse to get their bikes off the road. If someone here has a fender eliminator I can bet on it that they are riding like idiots.

Nice pic from vid. ..what cam

A F800GS, Triumph Tiger 800

My bike looks alright with the stock set-up, mainly because there's no fender
If i end up getting a slipon i'll consider it, since there would be much more empty space
Who in their right mind would memorize every single bike's stock look
Cops are state workers, and thus lazy as fuck

Try not riding like a douche and making cops find a reason to harass you, plates and lights and reflectors and all kinds of shit are easy pickings. You're not gonna get pulled over for having a clearly visible, lit up plate on the rear of your bike. Period.

>OR those people were riding like idiots
So anyone on /dbt/

>muh conjecture
>muh anecdotal evidence

>the cops just needed an excuse to get their bikes off the road
They can do the same to you for going 51 in a 50 zone.

but nah, it's fine, do what you want.
