watch it live faggot

>watching sport events after they took place
Really?

it has 43
and even if it had, who would find out? :^))))

>watching
>not racing in it
Git gud

the police/insurance after you inevitably fold yourself around a tree trying to make ebin footy for the dbt that no one will watch anyways, and then you're pretty much fucked

Isn't there someone on here with one of those that has literally never worked?

90s design is fucking based

All these squinty headlights out nowadays suck

>the police/insurance after you inevitably fold yourself around a tree
that's not how it works m8

Watching it live doesn't change the outcome.
When you're watching it """live""" it's not even live, it's delayed several seconds.
Can't make webms from a live stream.
Live stream requires a good internet connection and is susceptible to interference. TV requires a receiver which I don't have, plus (depending on channel) a subscription.

>someone on /dbt/
>not being able to make their bike work and refusing to take it to the shop
Sounds legit

yes it is, they often do that with retarded kids that crash their bikes, when they have a suspicion you might have modified it they will absolutely take the bike apart and look if you modded it somehow. and then, in case you are still alive, you're fucked both ways, or your family that will have to pay for damages you inflicted on your little glorified scooter

>Can't make webms from a live stream
Yes you can. There's a web service that automatically makes webms from Twitch streams if the chat erupts, so it can be done.

Is 45000 km/ 28000 miles on a Yamaha SR 125 too much? Need a reliable commuter

I have sauce for HD stream of all motogp/2/3

well then you can basically get fucked

>Black Diamond
da fuck is that

why should they have to pay for the damage that has been done to the bike?
and it would burst into flames anyways if I should crash that hard, because literally all the fuel will spill

it all depends on how it was treated and maintained. i'd rather have a bike with 45000 kms that has been serviced well, than a bike with 20000 kms that was neglected

Try again.

REEEE why did the KAT guy have to be stupid and host servers in fucking GERMONEY so they had an excuse to seize his shit?

there are other people in traffic besides you you egoistical cunt

I CHANGED IT THIS SUMMER GODDAMMIT

It's gotta be a short or a parasitic load or alternator. Healthy bike don't just chew through batteries at this pace.

and?
because my bike is rekt to shit they should have to pay for the bike (?) because there are other people on the road?
suck my dingeling m8 youre full of crap

They do if they're italian :^)

t. mvanon

slavshit with japbike here so coast should bee clear

>slavshit
That only guarantees mechanical parts.

google black diamond supermoto, basically it's the best CR500 sumo you could possibly build

That swingarm looks suspiciously Aprilia like

Going to be replacing the aging fuel lines in my bikes this weekend. What's your favorite brand of fuel line and hose clamps? Just want some basic black fuel line

You probably have a short

t. shivlet

just use old tires

My dad keeps telling me to buy a Ducati monster

Are they good?

Fucking expensive

They're not any better than any other bikes.

They're just fucking expensive.

they look good. not the newest ones though
other than that they're ducatis

I can get a 796 for about £3500

Do they hold value well?

The new ones are not so unreliable, but are a bitch to service
The old ones are a blast, but will burst into flames
Get an SV or specify what you'd like

why are bikes so bikey, bikey bois?

Dude needs to get off the bike.

>Do they hold value well?
yes

>SV

lmao

Miles?
It probably means the big expensive service is right about to be due
T. bloke who lives in ducatiland
If the motor is fucked it doesn't deserve 800quid

Anyone here own as SV650S? Any good phone holders out there for the bike for GPS use?

They're italian and cost italian prices for everything. They're signalling devices.

Get an SV if you're considering a monster. It's an all-around better machine.

Also where i live they're considered grill/fag bikes

SV's look like boring shit though

You again. Tell your dad to fuck off and mind his own business when he knows shit about bikes.

Literally first time I've posted in a year

I'm about to buy my first bike but am limited to sub 350cc

I can get a really good deal on both the Yamaha R3 or a 2014 Ninja 300 ABS edition today.

I much prefer the styling of the R3 over the ninja, but the R3 doesn't have a slipper clutch.

They both have ABS

wat do

Oh, I don't ride to attract other dudes.

wr 125

>slipper clutch on 300

Lol senpai that won't really matter. Can you test ride?

Otherwise get the one you like the most (I'm biased towards the R3)

R3 does not have ABS.

Get the Ninja. Better gas milage and better range.

There's a guy who said he wants to buy a bike and his dad told him to get a Ducati but he knows nothing about bikes. He posted in the last threads.

Well that's not me

Yeah, going to test ride both in a few hours.
I really do like the R3 more, but am kind of wary of the back wheel locking up if I don't rev match properly.
It has ABS outside the US

They are :
>beautiful
>fun
>unreliable ( better than before but still)
>doesn't sound good
>gets hot
>expensive

If you are rich and want a sexy bike, go for it.

They don't sound good?

That's a deal breaker for me

had a monster until it got totaled (lady crashed into me)

ended up getting a dual sport afterwards. its cool and all but i miss my monster every single day srs.

>I'm about to buy my first bike but am limited to sub 350cc

Where is this a thing?

>wat do

Buy a bike that isn't shit. If you have to get something sub 350cc just get a 250cc trail bike, have some fun, learn to ride on the road and dirt, don't stress about dropping it etc if you're dead set on smashing plastic get an old 250 Ninja.

Oh, didn't know that. Lucky. I wanted the R3 but the ABS on the Ninja made my insurance cheaper.

Slipper Clutch is nice. I mean, I still did manage to lock up the rear wheel once or twice back in my noob days so it isn't a cure-all.

I think the bigger plus on the Ninja is the added fuel capacity. You get an extra seventy-ish miles per tank if you're riding "Eco".

But it's negligible. Get whichever is cheaper or whichever you like the look of better. It's your first bike, you'll adapt no matter what.

most bikes don't have a slipper clutch.

they sound super good. newer ones are liquid cooled so don't get too hot.

Because that is a couple of thousand over my budget.
They are going for 8k+ where I am, where as I can get the ninja and the r3 for $4500 AUD

the only bike i can reliable lock the rear on is the shivvy and that has retarded v2 compression
a 300 p-twin will just jutter

>back wheel locking up if I don't rev match properly

You would have to try outstandingly hard to make that happen on a 300, as in dropping two gears, near redline, in the wet. Which is something you should never do unless you want to destroy your bike.

Hell I don't think I ever made that happen on big bikes even.

ABS discussions are beating a deadhorse. Some people like it. Some dislike it. As an advanced rider I feel it gets in my way. As a beginner it can be nice to have, but it isn't really something necessary.

What difference does a slipper clutch make anyway? Would you even feel it?

depends what your taste is, it's alright with aftermarket exhausts ( Termignoni etc..)

Thanks man.
The bigger fuel tank does sound rather nice.

guys. i recently got a DR650 and rode on some dirt roads. seat is uncomfortable as fuuuck so i tried changing around my posture by bending my lower back. now two weeks later my back still hurts. i think i fucked it up with all the bumps and what not.

>how do i transition from street to offroad?

you stand up, you dunce

The seat shouldn't be uncomfortable because you shouldn't be sitting when it's bumpy. Stand up dude

>$4500

The fuck are you talking about? You can get a clean low k's DRZ400E for less than that here in Aus, you can sure as fuck get a 250cc trail bike for less.

Also what's all this bullshit about sub 350cc? LAMS is 650cc

There's literally no reason to be looking at R3's and 300 Ninjas in Aus.

I give up on this place.

I got a much cheaper insurance quote for 350cc and less.
I'm in uni and shit is expensive enough as it is.

I'll take a look at the DRZ though, thanks for the tip.

have you tried lying to the probably online form you used to check that?
where i live power decides and dirtbikes have lower rates due to less general hooning

But you do end up looking like a bogan. So that's a trade off.
Get the R3 in blue.

If cost is an issue i'd seriously be looking at bikes like...

gumtree.com.au/s-ad/busselton/motorcycles/kawasaki-klx-250s/1123440851

...just clean, low k's, no nonsense trail bikes.

If your insurance company won't slug you a whole lot more for a DRZ400E, go that way.

They'll hold their value better, be cheaper to repair and maintain and are a whole lot more fun and comfortable to commute on.

...

Quads decides which one I buy

It's not the best for advice unless you like getting ignored or obnoxious answers. Try a real forum. This place is just for showboating, tripfags, and samefaggoting.

100% OffRoad

D606 rear
MT21 front

clear as mud
but we already told you
in case it wasn't clear STAND UP ON YOUR GODDAMN PEGS

Put a stiffer rear spring, then search out for an adjustable front suspension.

And stand up on the slower bumps.

We did that with my DR 350 compared it's performance to a newer 650

Yo impact do you tend to ride on the highway with your dr350? How does it handle high speeds?

And stay away please

>compared it's performance to a newer 650
But the DR650 is super undersprung from the factory

...

Boring. Uneventful. I play on my phone...

Rode better than Wombat's when we took it out in his woods......
