who?

is the kawa Z750 too fat to fuck?

I assume he's talking about iannones supermodel GF or whatever.

And I dunno if you've seen iannones social media accounts you'd know he's not very bright, he's thick as a brick but rides fast.

LMAO

fuck lel

why is it so heavy

>207kg dry
that's easily 240 wet, my GOSH

Congratulations on not updating the webm thread link.

Go get a bitch pregnant ya cuck.

What does this come from now?

6/10

Africa Twin or Versys?

I am both not italian and not heterosxual

AT for man
Versys for cuck

*where

Those goes hand in hand.
It's the picture, go look at the leaked video.

Does it sound different than usual when the engine is running? I'm not familiar with how Gixxer 1000s should sound.

Also, thank for the crash video. I'm webming that shit and posting it in the webm thread.

Well, considering it has a 750 cc engine, compared to a Yamaha Fz6, it's weight is not that far fetched

DUCATI MASTER RACE

That's some seriously old news with the crash vid.

>I'm webming that shit and posting it in the webm thread.
Already been done, slowpoke

Fuck. Whatever, I'm doing it anyway.

I must remember that, for the rest of my life I will probably eject at least three loads out of my butt every week, at least three times, and along with other ... Like a million other humans at the same time. I am human, like everyone else, and I must stay modest. This is just a thing.

Noticed how Americans will say i am Australian?
We see through u Americans. We know your who are.

POLL ROUND 2 (because hurr durr democracy)

Pick the final destination, time frame, and prove you're not american.

My bike is currently in the shop, what do I do?

Is a Suzuki GSX-250F (Across) capable on the track? I sorta want a CBR250RR, but I'll mainly be commuting and the Across seems more comfy and practical (luggage compartment), so I'm just wondering if it'll still be fun on track days with my other friends on their 250s. Also, it's a fuckton cheaper.
This is my first real bike outside of a scooter. Yes, probably the 1000th time I've made this post.

First for handa a best

Africa Twin because, yknow, actually offroad capable.

>250
>real bike

memes aside, sure it'll do.

>firstbike
>track
yeah, sure hope it is cheap. that things gonna get thrashed.

>le funny 600 killer meme

Yeah yeah I know, but I'm broke and I want a manual clutch because the scooter's getting kinda boring.
I know it'll probs get fucked up, but will the Suzuki be as good on the track as the Honda? It's a bit heavier, but it's slightly more torquey and has the same HP and top speed.

>250
>track

pls go

all 250s are such budget bikes they're hardly different. one might be marginally better but you're new so you would have no idea. either is ok.

if you actually want a small bike for track use, get a KTM RC390, there's even dedicated cups for those

Vstrom

Suffer

Any jackets that have a cutout on the sleeve so i can see my watch? I like to know what time it is while im out.

look at dashboard

>implying my 1990 suzuki has a clock.

Buy a modern bike

>no
I like my shitbike. I just want to see my watch while i ride.

>what are phone mounts
>what is autism

I know of another LAMS legal bike that's comfy to commute on and good fun on a track.

Why is everyone constantly shilling the gay ads SV650?

a well tuned across could be fun but for competitive purposes it will not be able to keep up with a well ridden mc22
t. me

Rasputin pls go

should add that the real suzuki mc22 equivalent is the GSX-R 250, similar but different to the across

Phone mounts look tacky. Ill just cut the sleeve and stitch it. Need to see my watch.

>autism
>he can sew
>needs to see his watch while riding his sewing machine
Now that's what I call tacky, friend.

>cant mend clothes
>doesnt have a nice watch
>wants to look tacky with a phone mount
Youre unstylish and useless.

put the watch on the bike

That was the gayest thing I've read today. Get out faggot.

Now thats not a bad idea. I would need a smaller band if its going on the handlebars though.
Do you read gay things often? Its easier to read outside the closet friend.

>207
>+ 18kg fuel
>+ 3,8L oil = 3,8kg
>+ coolant and brake fluid = ~1L = 1kg

ok it's 230kg

still pigfat

4.2 gallons is still only 11kg.

Nice comeback, seamstress

Whats a good , decent quality bike for a traffic pack city with shit roads but great mountain roads nearby? I was look at both this and the versys 650. The market here is made purely of KTM, kawasaki, royal einfield and ducati. Well those or cheapshit honda scooters and bikes (not that i fund honda bad, the ines they sell around here are)

SV650
V

Buy the red one so /dbt/ can have all four.

>Fuel capacity 19 l (4.2 imp gal; 5.0 US gal)

maybe you should learn to read, 11L would be laughable for a 750

It still has a far better power to weight ratio than most other naked sportsbikes

4.2 imperial gallons. 5.0 US gallons.
Even still, 5.0 US gallons is 30 lbs, or 13 kg.
>11L would be laughable for a 750
11L is 2.9 US gallons, or 2.4 imperial gallons. Are you fucking stupid? Also, the FZ-07 has a 14L (3.7 US gallon), not that far off your "laughable" 11L tank.
>inb4 "but I said 750, not 700"

>Bike sits for a while because british weather.
>Now it won't start.
>Battery has 10.2 V.
I need a charger lads, anyone have any good/bad experiences with particular makes and models?

It has an absolutely woeful power to weight ratio compared to most naked sportbikes.


what is wrong with your brain

you quote the OP, a picture of a Suzuki DRZ400SM and then ask this ridiculous question? begone with you.

Hello, and welcome to Veeky Forums.
I understand this is your first time here, so I recommend you spend some time reading, instead of posting, to learn about our culture, and how we act here!
Enjoy your stay.

Suzuki GSR600: 98hp/212kg=0,46

Yamaha FZ6: 98hp/216kg=0,45

Honda Hornet: 97hp/203kg=0,47

Kawasaki Z750: 110hp/219kg=0,51

And if you look at the torque numbers, the picture becomes clearer too

as a reference, the almighty SV 650 has a ratio of 72hp/190kg=0;37

im not saying the kawasaki is the best bike, but it has a pretty good power to weight ratio

Somebody buy my KTM, it's taking too long to sell

why do dirtbike helmets need that flat piece of plastic stick out in front of the top of them?

genuine question

Because you touch yourself at night

block sunlight, block dirt/rocks easier when you look down

>honduhh
bottom of the dyno again lmfaooooooo

well you're comparing the wheel hp of some to to the crank power of the others. (Z750 is around 90-95 hp atw, the SV650 is 72 atw first of all) and I mean you have to compare it to a class below it in order to make it competitive.

Against the gsx-s750 (another utterly boring bike), MT-09 etc it doesn't stick out in any way.

Then you have that whole literbike sport naked thing which happened and most sport nakeds are just much faster than it.

I'm not saying it's slow but the phrase "far better power to weight ratio than most sport nakeds" is laughable in the same way it would be if I said it of the Z1000 which makes far less than it's immediate competition.

Keep rocks and dirt coming from other people's bikes from hitting you in the face, also can block sunlight

The z750 was specially designed to compete with the 600 Superbike engined standard models, and at that, it was pretty good. Also, I pulled the numbers all from the same website which. I should have probably said "better power to weight ratio than the bikes it was targeting at the time"

do you realise that you're comparing a 750 to a pack of 600s?

>GSR750
>same power atw
>20kg lighter

are kawasaki even TRYING

The gsr was built like 7 years after the z750 hit the market

As I said, back when the Z750 was introduced, you could only really either buy liter bikes or kinda gutless 600 engined bikes. Kawasaki actually closed that gap

*cough*

>lights went dim
>Pulled over
>Wont start
How's your night?

uhhh
are you fucked in the head mate?

Maybe a look at those price tags will help against your cold

>designed to compete with 600s
>has to have a 150cc higher displacement
>still not even 100whp

this bike is a piece of shit bro.

>triumph electronics

you were warned.

Are you dyslexic? Do you see that teeny tiny little X in between the GS and the R?

>GSX-R

I literally copied the manual and it says 18L you retard, what the fuck is your point with your converting shenanigans

>what is torque?

"bro you can only buy shitbikes the z750 totally wasn't dead on arrival"
"n-no i meant you can only buy naked shitbikes, the z750 is the king of shit"
give up nobike

Yeah, I think it's just the battery terminals.
Has fucked up before and they look corroded as fuck. Waiting on my mate to bring his toolkit.

>GSX750 (1997)
