I was gone for a few hours, are we still mocking the ameridumbs?

What bike does our supreme leader, The Donald ride?

u sure u want to do that? we're probably at our most unpredictable now, and we've got plenty of nukes.

an OCC choppah

The bike looks nice but holy fuck, they should fire the marketing people/monkeys for using so many buzzwords.

>>Low RPM assist
what the fuck?

that z900 looks like a real fz09 killer. but i know the price will put it in a slightly different category.

>The assist feature is activated by the clutch, which communicates to the ECU and raises the engine RPM when the clutch begins to engage.

Basically if you don't give it enough throttle to take off the bike notices it and rises RPM. Without it you would just stall like usual.

Nothing to worry about, just relevant for new riders.

i stalled for the first time in a while the other day. i didnt tighten the clutch cable adjuster full, and it rattled loose. it dropped the clutch at too low an rpm when i was coming out of a stop. my right boot got caught on the peg and i almost dropped it.

Yeah, go on, nuke the world, first day we're gone, second day you'll be gone even if no one responses.
It's only natural for ameridumbs to kill themselves.

How could you put your trust in a man that hasn't been honest about his hair with himself for 30 and more years?
It's pathetic.

>and an unstable president

Make America shit

Does your bike have dual throttle valves?

>Nothing to worry about
I want to ride the bike, not let the bike ride itself

idts

do you mean styling wise, or overall performance wise?

Xth for Best Beginnet Bike (tm).

lol that frame is so infamous

does nothing until you stall, its for nubs
if stalling counts to your riding experience you should stop riding bcuz you suck lol

if you constantly need an electronic nanny system to stop you from stalling, you should stop riding

omg lol are you retarded
nobody is going out buying this bike like "oh yeahh low rpm assist I totally need this" its just there lol, get in touch with reality nerd

>nobody is going out buying this bike like "oh yeahh low rpm assist I totally need this"
then why would they offer it?

fact is, too many retards that think "oh shit, I have all of these electronic doodads, my bike is basically uncrashable" will get bikes like these, vastly overestimating these "security features", and will end up fucking killing themselves. The last thing this world needs is motorcyclists that have no idea how to ride because their bike does it all for them, in addition to car drivers that also basically let their cars drive themselves

They did it just to piss you off.
Is that what you want to hear?
Do you feel important now?

>t. nobike

>sitting at T intersection

Is it all in my head or can you do such a thing

I think i'm gonna keep the thumb thingy
It's really comfy

You can do that on a bicycle, so a 250 would be able too.

...

Not in your head, your wheel is sliding.
try not taking off so aggressively around slow corners maybe.

Cool. It's fun so I'll keep trying.

Maybe don't, your bike may have enough power to lose traction slightly but i doubt it is breaking traction completely, going to end up high siding if you keep at it m8.

your bike and all that so what ever floats your boat.

aw fuck

fug ducatis

Washed bike, convieniently the 5 degree weather turned out to be sun and no wind around noon so I actually developed something of a sweat. All that's left for winter storage is to put it in neighbor garage, mix in fuel stabilizer, remove battery and seat and shed a single tear.

So I survived my first season of riding:
Times crashed: 1
Times dropped: 6?
Turn signals replaced: 4
Flywheels jammed: 1
Waves: many
Friends made: 0
Girls picked up: 0
Travels through shitty small villages that can go fuck themselves: 2
SEM2 trip: n/a
Boring webms: 2 and counting
Guy I bought bike from also had thumb thingy, told me to consider learning without then adding it for highways, next season imma try it on travels

>Times dropped: 6?

u wot

yeah 6 why so many m8?

>Times crashed: 1
the meme is real

Why do you overtake like a bitch.
Shit is dangerous.

Nice webm, you gonna die if you keep that up.

lol that overtake was pathetic

I live on a slope and have no garage, unparking it the first bunch of times was hard. Also it's got a choke and once I unparked it, put in neutral, let the choke rip, and while doing this put on the rest of my gear. Vibrations made it move JUST A TINY BIT and then it fell on the downslope side. Adrenaline rush getting it back up was real.
Technically 2 now, once on very first ride on own motorcycle, driving it home underestimated a roundabout. Then like 2 days ago I took out someone's rear light in stop-and-go-traffic. It was a weird day, I was riding 150kmh on highways having fun, then on way home at 20kmh I hit someone.
Not proud of it, I usually don't overtake when I'm not sure it's safe. This was the 2nd to last commute I had at that job, I had ridden that stretch of road 180 times this year. I was being a retard. But hey, close call webm.

Not a bad idea. Thumbs are strong and it's a way to avoid carpal tunnel.

>avoid
I'm afraid it's too late
Got my wrist properly broken when i was 9 and thoroughly shattered it playing hockey

>close call webm.
that was't a close call by any means, that was just a retarded, slow, and irritating "overtake"

You funny euros shouldn't be worried about trip upping the nukes. Be more worried about trump being butt buddies with Putin and that trump would probably be a vindictive Asshole and ignore the russkies driving tanks over your lawns.
So what would make for a SHTF/TEOTEAWKI bike that is street legal that could be ridden around while waiting for apocalypse?

Buy and study a copy of Proficient Motorcycling.

Keep your head and eyes up and constantly, SYSTEMATICALLY scanning your environment. When riding think of nothing else.

You guys thought Trump winning the presidency was nuts? Check this. I am going to remove my wheels using the OEM toolkit.

Nigger when Chernobyl happened we couldn't even eat vegetables in Italy, why the fuck should we fear Russians? Clearly they can't be that retarded. I hope.
If it comes to close combat I'm pretty sure EU can face them.

The problem is the energy. Those government retards sure must wish they had develop green energy and they'd be self-sufficient right now.
Rip wheels.

No, he's right.

Dou eeeeeeeet

Russia is a joke. Ever had any russian tourists in your town? They're on the same level of the chinese, ignorant troglodytes who have no respect and knowledge for and about anything.

I dreamt tonight that I was riding my bike, braked into a left hand corner, hit a small bump and lost the front.

Is that a bad omen?

Yes skid demon likes to tease his prey first. Beware.

I got it started, dunno how but im going to get the battery tested.

Only if you are a wizard.
only wizards have powers like that.

If you think it is you will most likely crash.

Nah, that's a sorcerer field
>he majored in wizardry

This so much

The only close call i actually had was when I was riding with a mate of mine up a rather steep mountain at dawn. I had my GPS on, and got distracted by that, and afterwards, looked into my rear view mirror to check if he was still there. I must have only been looking away from the street for one or two seconds, but that was enough to already be on the shoulder at 40 kmh. I luckily could still save it and clear the corner, but that made me realise how vitally important it is to always 100 % know what's in front of you

good thing my bike is not registered until march then :^)

Hey how much did you pay for that shit?

Don't buy Suzuki.

I'm a bit salty for the DNC putting a scandal ridden lizard and for the Rust Belt for voting for a clown in a naive notion that those jobs will actually be brought back.

E-eicma...

It came out to a perfect $500 with shipping.

Fuck I shoulda specified, meant bike, my bad.
