Who is this and
What happened to him?

Why do you have to post that
>this ain't a feels thread

im 5,10 and i fit on my dizzer. you can always buy a lowering link if you really need it.

thank you gents

So many 16yolds this summer
Really hope there's a janny doing it for free round here

he died on the way home from sem last year.

>Euro /DBT/ meet
>Group ride for a few days
>Hung out
>Had to leave after a day or so
>Group kept riding
>Died on the way back home

Someone help me with the full story

so he had to go home from sem early too?
thats even sadder.
maybe hed still be shitposting if he stayed a while longer.

>wog
>dirt bike
Who knew

How do we know he died? Maybe he just thought you guys were a bunch of queers and stopped posting.

He represents all of us, doing what we love despite the risk. 10/10 guy will be missed

>look up reviews of the new Africa twin
>all manual reviews seem to sneak in how it'd really benefit from the DCT
>all the auto ones sing the praises of the transmission in dirt without actually ever going off road
>90% of crash videos involve the DCT one
I'm gonna guess mama Honda slipped some cash around to get sales up, i remember two guys here have one, any glaring problems?
SEF or axel on the archives, lurk moar
Some relative posted an eulogy, we got invited to his funeral...

no, he did a trip around europe after the sem.

because a bunch of us were at his funeral

Not sure why i quoted there, sry

>see the expected Indonesian price for this thing
>it's higher than a CBR500R in Canada
>lose any interest I might have had

>figure out later that Indonesians pay the equivalent of 18,000 freaking freedom bucks for a 650
>but the CBR250R was dead on the equivalent of the CBR300R here

I don't even know what to believe. I need to stop worrying about low displacement 3rd world cuck bikes

and he died on the trip around europ?

miss this game

Yes, in Norway

The only thing that bike will do well is pollute the google image searches for mc22's.

Not even on the bike. Iirc he went off and into the woods and felled off a cliff

He fell off a cliff, but sustained serious internal injuries. They say he was alive and in mass pain for at least a day before he succumbed to the eternal bleeding

I still don't believe he ded.
No one can actually die.
Motorcycles are safe.

>eternal bleeding
internal you gook

motorcycles are safe but gravity is one hell of a bitch.

>I need to stop worrying about low displacement 3rd world cuck bikes

yes you really need to

But dude it has three throttle modes to put all that 45hp down to the ground.

wait what?
was he riding his bike or he just fell off a cliff?
or he did a Travis Pastrana without a parachute?
wat habben?

Like the mc42 didn't pollute mc19 searches

>see a guy on a bike having trouble on the side of the road
>black
>no gear
>riding INLAHN FO' SUPAHSPOTE
>shift down two gears and scream past him redlining

...

Like it actually needs 3 throttle modes, no doubt like all of Hondas other parallel twins it is a shit heap incapable of producing top end power, i bet that 45bhp is at 8000rpm.

It's still slightly relevant as the ultimate bike for cucking RC390s in lightweight class racing.

Don't knock it. Gravity is what keeps rubber and asphalt close together

anyone ride with a pillow on their seat?

>Don't knock it. Gravity is what keeps rubber and asphalt close together
truly a double edged sword

>I'm going to deliberately not help a fellow biker

Are there any ptwins that have the pistons always si de by side?
>cyl1 is in compression
>cyl2 is in exhaust
Would that resemble a 2 smoke?

>it feels slow because it's not revving really high
t. Cuckasaki 250 owner

Not him but i wouldn't help a walking wetsuit either.

No, that's wrong.

...

I 05343
>45 bhp at 8krpm
>from a 250
P noice desu. That's the kind of tork I'd expect from a 650

I've ridden a gixxer with a pillow AS the seat

r u allowed to park there?

>it is slow because it loses half way through its rev range
No point having a bike that can rev hard if it doesn't make more power when it is, especially when it is a little engine that i supposed to love revving.

How can i put this in autistic dbt will understand terms?
i know you guys find understanding bottom end, mid range and top end power bands to be really confusing.

Where he fell looked like a fairly straight road too. Went full reddit and forgot to turn I think.

I cant remember where the news article was posted.

>caring if you're allowed to park at that place

For the thirty seconds I'm there, sure.

Do you have 'roids?

No, when camping I do use my tent as a back rest

>No point having a bike that can rev hard if it doesn't make more power when it is
Sure there is. Protip: Shifting is slow.

Only fags ride witg highbeam on during daylight

Yeah nah you really don't understand power bands at all.
This might make sense to you, bike with top end power band keeps pulling all the way to the redline, bike with mid range power band stops pulling before it even gets near the redline, you have to change up gears sooner.

>bike has cracks in fairings longer than my hand
>missing one front turn signal
>license plate holder is not stock made of shitty looking sheet metal
>shitbike4lyfe

...

you were wrong

you assumed something in the world wasn't going to bother to try to kill you unexpectedly. you could have waited 2 seconds and gotten in at any pump or at least checked his damn reverse lights

at best you might have been morally right but with broken fairings, but what's the point in that?

>and you should have had LOUDER PIPES duh

Yes and? What necessity do you have to run the bike to redline besides your OCD? That still gives you more ceiling for leaning the bike over on full throttle or running it out in lower gears instead of needing to upshift or tag the limiter right before braking.

The CB500 and NC700 have low rev limits close to the power peak anyways so I don't even know what you're going autismo over.

Because you're going to go full autismo right after this, yes, race bikes all tend to make power at high revs, because given a displacement limit and nothing else that tends to be the best way to make the most power. That doesn't really mean shit to low displacement bikes that are all limited to around 45hp anyways so they can be sold to new riders.

sometimes when I have lbm issues or if my gf pegs me too long,
its not uncomfortable to sit with roids tho. walking is awkward and running is uncomfortable.

you're probably allergic to gluten
say goodbye to beer

Post your new gear so I can call you Trolly McFuckenDollars

>The CB500 and NC700 have low rev limits close to the power peak anyways so I don't even know what you're going autismo over.
Because i am worried it is a smaller cbr500 which has the most boring engine ever put in a motorcycle.
What is wrong with not liking that?
They could have made a new inline 4 that does actually make usable power but no.

I haven't bought anything except guns and a trailer hitch, sorry

see

I am going to check out a 2002 GSXR 600 this Sunday. Only 11,000 miles.

Anything in particular I should be looking for? Guy in the listing says

>perfect condition, new fluids, new battery, always garaged, bone stock

Tires are good on it too.

Asking $3,300

God dammit

No, i will not accept that 250's are glorified meme bikes that only exist because of shitty laws and no fun is allowed anymore.
i just want there to be a new cbr250rr... is it too much to ask?

You want something that doesn't make sense to build, so man up and build one yourself

>Tires are good on it too
tell him that the tires are not stock and offer just 3k for lying about it being bone stock

>acquire 6 50cc engines
>machine together a block
>stick a crank in it
>no counterweights because muh i6 armony
>bolt a frame to it
>obtain 300cc inline 6 godbike

Im imaging someone trying to rationalise that.

Im imagining your mum on my cock

norfolk.craigslist.org/mcy/5654257966.html

should i be best off with a 400 or will i be overwhelmed with this 650?

I wouldnt help a black NOGATT either

Nah, the Drz is overhyped, as a beginner the dr is great
>a 650 thumper is nothing like a 600 raecbiek

Isn't it a thumper? Wouldn't have too much power, just don't be retarded. It will only go as fast as you want it, I started on a 600cc i4 with over 100hp and I'm still alive.

Kids start riding bikes that weigh less and have more power when they are 13, you will be fine.

Just because gimp suits turn you on

So dirt bikes are for kids

The starter bike meme is meant to scare budding hoons away from things they can kill themselves with

If you're really scared of being shit at riding, you can put in limiters and downgrade the brakes.

No it's just a two cylinder four stroke that operates on opposing strokes.

>Are there any ptwins that have the pistons always si de by side?
Old Triumphs had 360 degree cranks.

>Would that resemble a 2 smoke?
No

Yeah, but instead of going
>bang - compression
>exhaust - bang
>suck - exhaust
>compression - suck
It'd go
>bang - suck
>exhaust - compression
>suck - bang
>compression - suck
Even bang, but more vibrations

Yes 360 degree ptwins will vibrate your fillings out

i dont plan to hoon either way. i just want something that will allow me to ride year-round

and sportbikes never really attracted me, i dislike the seating posture desu

2 stroke means there are two revolutions of the crank shaft for every power stroke in the engine, basically a 2 stroke engine revving a 5000rpm = a 4 stroke engine of the same size revving at 10,000rpm

get a meme t - 07.
Least comfortable sit ever fitted to a motorcycle but dem motard ergonomics.
