no better or worse than knowing there are millions of males out there who ride much better than me.

>what's stopping someone from fitting a long flat seat to it to make it a standard/ujm ?
Its fucking retarded to cut a new bike and try to make it something its not, in that case just buy an ujm.

They dare make changes to rebel?
Rebel 250 had no changes since 1986.

I'm really not sure, is this supposed to compete with the Street Twin? It's like a weird half cruiser

The entire fucking theme Honda is pushing the bike with is that its a platform for customization. What separates a UJM from a cruiser with mid controls that hasn't been lowered?

My shitbox has a broken heater fan so it's very fucking cold right now, and the windshield steams up something awful

Would a bike be colder still? My dad has a 125 I can borrow whenever.

85-86 were ist gen and had different calipers, cylinder head and carbs. The newer ones were the same as a cb or twins star.

>What separates a UJM from a cruiser with mid controls that hasn't been lowered?

The whole tank and have a diferent angle. Also risers and rake.

>Street Twin?
its more if like vtr250 met a vulcan 650 and fucked. This would be their baby.

>MVanon ded
Again? or did he just stop posting like me because the weather around here has become depressing?

>cafe racers in general.
They look cool. Sometimes add really gay modifications and make it look super try hard and minimal while decreasing actual performance/structural integrity. There are a lot of shit mods out there.

>the ducati scrambler CR.
looks tight, gets like 110 miles to the tank tho. Kind of shit for "commuting"

He still posts p. regularly. Went riding with him thursday

I dunno, how rare is this?

muh dick. it is genuinely my favorite looking bike when it has the fairing.

Why are 1th generation Honda MSX-125s (also aka as "Groms") on CraigsList for $4,000 dollars when they are $3,200 new?

It's basically exactly what I wanted when I wanted a beginner cruiser.

Hey. I posted a couple days ago about help reupholstering my bike seat. I got a yard of fabric from a auto upholsterer for $20 and did the job today and it came out okay so thanks cuties.

Short brake levers are okay on bikes with powerful brakes. The reduced leverage makes them easier to modulate.

Short clutch levers are the devil though

the gsxr250 will be the best beginner bike five years from now

Nope, shitty made in india bikes are never good.

Cumming on blow feels amazing!

post your bike grill

i think the bmw 310 will be very popular, second only to the Suzuki DRZ400SM.

>hit a mosquito in florida

>literbike in the rain
it's actually not that bad. it's a little intimidating knowing that the slightest touch of whiskey throttle and/or cluth inaccuracy will spin the rear before you can blink, but it's not actually that bad. i think liters are actually better in the rain on the freeway than other displacements because you can putt around doing the speed limit at 4-5k. if you never want to touch that fire-breathing powerband you really don't have to

>it's a little intimidating knowing that the slightest touch of whiskey throttle and/or cluth inaccuracy will spin the rear before you can blink
Same as any other bike, really.

do you not have a rain fuel map / traction control?

Does your liter not have traction control and rain mode or something?

nope, all analog.

My bike is better in the rain, as it has no extreme power, but all usable power.

I normally ride with 3-4k rpm, only need to go to 5k rpm to reach 130km/h.

do you have a mode for rain, or some kind of control of traction?

do you moderate the rain? do you have control over your own actions?

>lets computers do the fun part of riding
>glitch paralyzes bike in the middle of nowhere

Does your liter have a mode for pain? Do you regret having traction?
