/dbt/ can you tell me why Harleys have a bad reputation?
I want to get a motorcycle soon (maybe within the next 2 years) but I just can't love the normal sportbike body/shroud styling. I really do love the Harley aesthetic.
Are there any brands that have a better reputation, but also sell cruiser / bobber style bikes?
Thanks.
Julian White
Jap cruisers are pretty nice. Indian and victory are def superior to harley if u want murican made
Parker Johnson
all the big jap companies sell crusiers, sometimes with a different brand like vstar or go with indian
Christopher Robinson
>only harleys and supersports exist I despise you
Landon Baker
All Japanese companies (Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki) sell cruiser style bikes. American company Indian/Victory also make cruisers. British company Triumph makes cruisers. Italian company Moto Guizzi makes cruisers (weird ones).
All that said, are you sure that you don't like standard and naked bikes too?
Aaron Carter
>indian
Aaron Davis
I wouldn't pay 1250 for that. Maybe a 1000
Jaxson Butler
Kavasaki Monkey a best.

Luis Jackson
All the jap companies sell cruisers
are you sure you don't want a standard?
Bentley Ward
yeah there are oversized dirtbikes, oversized dirtbikes with street wheels, fetal position racebikes, slow bikes with a more upright position that only look fast, and hipster cuckbikes
get a clue man
Angel Long
"standard" is the most nebulous bike category that you might as well say "something that isn't a harley or a race replica".
Juan Thomas
or a dirtbike :^)
Jason Davis
dirtbikes aren't bikes user
Jack Rodriguez
They're toys. For kids
Owen Sullivan
Do any of you guys use WinFF & ffmpeg to make webms? I wasn't happy with the default presets in winff for that so I niggerrigged one that seems to work fine with it.
Any interest?
Isaiah Cook
Isn't Kymco a spin off from Honda?
Dylan Taylor

I use Webm for Retards, and I think most of dbt does as well.
Ryder Allen
I'd pay 750
Henry Gutierrez
i feel so awkward upshifting, how do you guys get your foot under the gear shift lever comfortably

I am a linux user... sadly I have learned to accept command lines... even if they are more arcane-spells that I need know and not understand as opposed to an actually acquired knowledge for me.
Nathan Torres
it becomes a natural movement all done by muscle memory. If you're not comfortable with where the gear shifter is you can adjust it
Carson Ortiz
>place food under lever >push up
Levi Robinson
Have floorboards. Plenty of room to get comfortable
Jayden Perez
Zog it,
Some one may find it useful.
Cameron Walker
Zrx1100 or 1200
Jacob Russell
Looks great with the acerbis tank, huh?
Charles Young
I love these. I want to grab one eventually as a second bike. Something more comfortable than my cbr.
Landon Sanders
Ascerbis tanks look awful kys senpai
Lincoln Allen
That tanks fucking ugly.
Jackson Stewart

On a scale of 1 to lift, do you even bro?
Jordan Evans
i slowly set my bike down when getting on outside my house and had to get my bro to come outside and help me get it up. my former driving instructor happened to be passing with a student at the time too
Easton Howard
Max comfy, the vibes arent even that bad with the right handgrips, some thick bars and bark busters. Plus it's kickass around town and isn't half bad on Highway with a 15t front sprocket. I think it looks nice, plus witb the fuel that low, it brings the center of gravity lower and makes it handle a bit better, less topheavy.
Easton Evans
Lol i thought you replied to my xr, the red zrx is my buddies. Its comfy af stock, has a ton of torks, and is a great all around bike, it's as useful as any standard, but has got some serious balls. Definitely recommend it.
Anthony Hernandez
I think it does
James Young
Just for clarification Is the stock one, and pic is acerbis tank
Cameron Rodriguez
that has nothing to do with the fact that theyes look like hot garbage.
Brandon Robinson

R65, some other user and I sat down last night and whipped up a bash script for lazy Linux users. Works p well I think, I'll just have to test a little more. Also command lines are love, and life.

Jaxon Thomas

1250 would be a good price where I'm from. The dr did get it right for the most part and is a bit lighter than what most people get nowadays in terms of enduros.

William Murphy
That too
Jonathan Ortiz

You guys need to learn the proper way to do this.
with the right technique, even a 90lb girl can lift a 1200cc Harley

Ryan Stewart
Hey guys, so I have a meme bike, the r3. It's just not quick enough for me to really enjoy riding, so I have been considering getting a new bike once I get my enlistment bonus in the navy. Budget would be around $7k US, and I can't decide between a naked or a sport-touring. What would you do in my situation? I will likely be buying used.
Caleb James
>can't ride fast >buy a more powerful bike This is why not one single American is any good on a motorcycle t. European with full A license who could ride an r3 and beat you on an r1
David Rogers
Do you like to go fast? >nekkid Do you hate to go fast? >sport tourer
No fairings make everything seem double hektik
Logan Jenkins
You just better hope there isn't one fucking gentle sweeper or you're t o a s t
Thomas Hall
>enlistment bonus Well, lemme ask you this: where's your first duty station and what's the overall bonus? If the terrain is mostly straight roads like NAS P'cola and Jax, then get a naked. You're gonna need all the airflow you can get and you'll get a decent rush just bombing around town and onnabeach. If your bonus is right at 7k or so, bank it. Invest that shizz, see if you can blast it into TSP or something. It'll pay off quite nicely later. Trust me.
Jaxson Hernandez
Alright, asshole, how about some real advice? I ride on flat fucking highway for miles to work, and am tired of riding in 6th at 8k.
Thanks for the tip, I have only ridden faster sportbikes before, and I really don't think I could get used to the seating position, so that is the main reason I'm asking. Considering it will mostly be for commuting, I'm leaning towards sport touring.
Overall bonus is 12k and I will be in Charleston for two years. >inb4 worst rate
Daniel Parker
A comfy sport tourer would do you well, since you've got hills and mountains not too far away. You gotta do some weekend trips, motocamping, etc.
>rates You Navy folks' rate system baffles me. Then again, I've rarely worked with Navy folks so I've never really tried to learn it. Inasmuch, gotta start somewhere.
Owen Bell
bought 125cc shit small bike cuz im pussy going a little fast on corner random bump bike turns into a plane
XD
Carter Wilson
Don't listen to Veeky Forums.
If you're having fun on a 125cc, then you're doing it right.
