>it's snowing
Fuark I hope it's just for a day or two

I'm never gonna be rich

Good thing you don't need to be rich to own a nice bike

why?

Take your shitbike out in it

Posting from the side of town that didn't burn up

Get it out of your mind that rich=happy. Also, you can buy a nice ass bike for less than most middle class people spend on their cars, so I don't think its any issue :)

What year is that? I like the accents a lot

...

>want to buy 2017 FZ07 in spring
>also want to buy new house
Fug

why not wait for the xtz7?

Cause I don't own a shitbike
Hopefully the traction control will manage on the road

'95 right before they added VTEC
I got a quote of 400 to paint the back end red like the rest of it.

you only need $7

Meh, take your 130hp sportbike out in it, same difference.

Damn bruh nice viffer.

First im hearing of it.
Not sold in US?

But DRZ a shit tho

How do you deal with ice?

Thanks, slowly moving up in the baiku world. Working on fixing up the FZR1000 now

S1000RR, 40,xxxkm's Odometer, looks really good condition, video shows it runs with no issues what so ever, looks to be good condition, well serviced.

Price is good, what do you guys think?

Do it mang
Fucking love my XR such a sweet engine

You only need $7k to own the best new bike on the market, the instant classic 2017 SV650.

Buy the red one today!

More Yamahas in the snow pls

How is the engine in low speed stuff, aka doing commuting?

>over priced
>underpowered
>cant turn
>heavy as fuck
Suzuki recipe

you're fucking right.

and i'm pretty fucking glad. it way less stressful than owning/financing a car.

I fucking love bikes now !

my bad, T7
>asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/yamaha-t7-concept/

That's the only snow pic I have I think.

What all bikes do you have now?

patience

XR has the single R tune so it will have more bottom end.
RR definitely isn't short of torque though from what I've read. Fueling is very smooth also.
I commute on mine all the time

do you have a garage?

or do you have a way to conceal your bike from thieving spooks?

im an oaklandfag too and ive had every fucking bike or scooter stolen from me as a kid.

Oh my.
I wonder what it will cost
The FZ is pretty cheap

that alot of fucking miles

At least the used models aren't too bad down here, I think the SV650 memer was right
>cheapest models 3k dollarydoos
>haven't been niggered out for the most part

by comparison I can't find a CB500 for much under 5k and GS500s are 3-4k

I was going to post photos of this horribly customised 'repairable' write-off GS500s with purple LEDs all over it but the fucker took it down.

Or a low mile used FZ6 for $1500

itll have to be close to the competition so 10-13k would be my guess.
and calling for a 400lb weight itd be the lightest bike in its class by a fair bit.

you should get a shitbike, they can cost less than a crash on a fully faired bike

Fj1200, FZR1000, VFR750

Eh. The FZ07 is only $7k
And i have dirtbikes already

Yes all in garage, honestly just getting a cover goes a long way towards not having your shiny vehicles jacked in these parts if you absolutely must park on the street.

>tfw no longer have a literbike
I miss the torque

The issue isn't the cost of the bike but the insurance. There's no multi bike discount here and insurance is expensive

not sure how much it is where you are but my dr650 is about $2.60 a month

rocket 3

I think you underestimate the amount of jewing that goes on in this country

Holy shit guys riding in winter fucking SUCKS

I want one but no money or garage room currently

well thanfully you still have them. it's one of my main gripes living in oakland, that and faggot hipster liberals trying to gentrify a place that's beyond saving

How much of you weight should be on the ground when you stand at stops?
Im not sure if i should lower my ninja since around only 60-70% of my weight reaches the ground . Is this normal? Im really new

Whatever is comfortable man.

If you have a scarf and skiing apparel (gloves, balaclava, woolen socks, maybe bibbers if it's fucking freezing), it helps.
I agree though, I wanna move back to Florida for nothing else but the weather.

A lot of people don't even put two feet down at lights, so you're probably fine the way you are.

i feel your pain lad, i want to go back to cali. but at the same time i like my guns so it's a catch-22.

I commuted for 10 months on a KLR with a 35" seat hight.

my inseam is 31"
You can manage.

Dont forget to report incoherent jew burner posts.

No it doesnt. Its great, 10c is a nice temp to ride in.

Reported
:^)

Barely any, just enough to keep the bike upright.

Enjoy it :^)

You still end up buying shit bikes. I can literally go out and buy a 20k bike in cash right now. But, most of the time i still look on CL.

don't wanna deal with dealers, dont' wanna deal with breaking in the engine.

will probably buy a new bike later this year tho.

That's a tall bike, I never realized they were that high up

They sag quite a bit when you sit on them

whatever though, it can be paid off within a year whereas a car takes fucking forever. i'm gonna rely on bikes as long is i want.

My bikes are like 38" and don't sag as much.

My balls are tiny and dont sag at all but my dick is huge. What bike is the best for me?

GS500

What a turd

DRZ400SM

What a turd

i'm making money again

i want a new bike

should i get a zx6r or a drz650

i know they're vastly different bikes but my goal is just pure fun

Are you gonna go off road?

on a drz, sure

How the fuck am I supposed to answer this?

If you want to have maximum fun off road a dr650 is not the answer either.

so the ninja then

>dont' wanna deal with breaking in the engine.
is hard break-in a meme or real life?

i already have two 2 stroke dirt bikes

i'm thinking more sensible adventure touring fun vs. nutty toe gay fun

dr650 is a great cheap reliable shitbike that can still take you yo uall over the place

Get a supermoto and do both

yeah i feel like the dr is probably better value

ninja would probably get taken for a few short hops then stolen or some shit

like what?

i'm a shortass, keep that in mind

I think a 600 is only worth it if you're gonna go tracking or you have some really crazy twisties.

otherwise I'd just rather a 750 or a larger displacement bike for cruisin' and what not because I think in order to make 600s perfect for the road you want to go -1/+2 which will make them less cruisy on highways and what not.

DRZ400SM > DR650 >>>>> Ninja

You got that backward m8

I think it's more likely the opposite. Dirt bikes are nigger magnets.

i have a harley and an old honda 500

was planning on tracking and twisting

i don't want any more

Yeah get a sport bike especially since you already have dirt bikes.

Fairweather riding is honestly the best riding.
>this triggers the nocar poorfag commuters

is it silly to dive headfirst into sport bikes and get a 600 off the bat?

Get an f800gs

No. 600s are pretty fast but not uncontrollable rockets like everybody makes them out to be. The power comes on really controllably and they're even docile if you don't rev it out everywhere.
I kind of wish I got a liter...

A liter bike is more practical and will have more low end torque and linear power delivery

Why does anyone ever recommend a bmw?

bmws are terrible value here in north america

i'm not so hyped on practicality if i get a sports bike

i will probably trailer it a lot

Nice meme. You can find a picture of any bike which breaks.
F800gs is a very capable touring and off road machine.

you can do this with a cbr600, they're great learner bikes. theyre super slow and will not surprise you at all.

But seriously
Its a massive issue.

I don't know how it can get any more linear than the. It's a straight line climbing steadily with no jumps or exponential growth. The only place where it strays from linear fashion is the last few RPM where it runs out of breath.

found the cringy bus riding teen

than the 600*

I haven't found that to be the case.
The dealership's I've gone to always list price accurately OTD unlike other brands where they have a bunch of hidden bullshit.

>crashing a bike will damage it
wow who knew

found the guy who hasnt ridden all the 600s and doesnt know the hondas weak as fuck

Look it up yourself
Bmw a shit

not a learner bike, illiterate edgelord
