go sit on your dildo

Why are people not convicted when bikers get killed over road rage? You always see people cutting off bikers like they have some personal vendetta against them which sometimes even leads to death. And they never get in trouble.

I was riding with a friend yesterday. My friend was cruising and he pulled up between 2 cars at a stop light which is legal here. As the light turned green the car to the right purposely turned left into him trying to cut him off and ran over him. Ended up with a broken leg and totaled bike. Guy got a ticket for reckless driving and that was it. Fuck that bullshit. He purposefully cut him off and intended harm.

better at breaking, costing a fortune and needing constant rebuilds, yes

Didn't even see this.

650 is breddy fun. More or less has the power of the duc but it's way more reliable and comfortable. Don't really know why I never rode it much before now.

tfw i have a 450EXC and a DRZ
tfw I rode the DRZ more
tfw KTM broke down anyway

...

>faster
>more powerful
>lighter
>more fun

To be quite honest with you family you couldn't pay me to ride either of your shit cuckbikes.

you have to hire a lawyer and pursue civil and criminal charges against him.

Fuck off jethro

kek. are you upset?

>gender is a social construct fuck it anyway
>they literally have the wrong genitalia for fucking

>tfw can't make boring webbums anymore because Mac

Reeeeeeee

ffmpeg exists for mac

>mac
Did your ex-wife take your balls in the settlement?

AWWWWWWW YEAH COCAINE NIGGERS

Did you guys get to ride today?

No, still ice everywhere, and its going to snow a shit ton tonight

I fucking hate winter

Nope, had to drive a buddy to work so I took the Jeep.

I got told to quit riding my dirt bike on the road and revving it by my retarded landlord.

underrated post

no. it's cold here and riding in the cold isn't particularly fun.

naw its all icy and shit

yeah im not a fuckin pussy

My niggah

whycome MX bikes have 19 inch rear wheel while enduros have 18 inch rear wheel?

Would the bigger wheel be handy for going over bumps on the enduro too?

I think the enduros use a taller profile tire. So the outer diameter ends up being the same but the tire can do more of the suspension work.

MX bikes probably use the larger rim so they end up being slightly lighter.

This is going to sound silly but

>My old man
Relationship has been a bit iffy over the years but he used to ride a bunch and knows his shit about bikes etc still rides occasionally
Still rides occasionally but may not be the best at troubleshooting and figuring out what the bike may need

Or
>Friend of mine
Same age as my old.man
Used to ride a bunch
Still rides occasionally
Haven't talked to him.in a while
Probably knows a bit more on the mechanical aspects about bikes and what it would need etc

On the downside he's hard to get to commit to anything and tends to be very opertunistic about everything thinks everything can be an easy fix
Also may help me fix it up etc

less unsprung mass on the drive wheel, same reason they use aluminum sprockets.

Also on the MX track you don't need the protection against pinch flats that a taller tire offers

I can't get it to work tho. It just opens up terminal and I can't do anything after that
Meh I like it, it's useful for work and breddy good for getting shit done quickly and multitasking
Dank. Niggas can call it a beginners bike all they want but to me it's just a comfy baiku that has okayish power and handling. It is pretty pigfat tho.

I'm going to put some woodcraft clip ons on it with 1" risers to help make it more responsive to steering input.

>tfw my integrated tail light hasn't come in yet and I'm rolling with no rear signals right now.
>tfw hand signals just confuse the fuck outta people

Reeee

cheers big ears makes sense, the bigger tyre would probably flex more and the MX would really bring that out too I guess.

Thanks.

open a terminal in the folder where your ffmpeg file sits and type commands

I'll download ffmpeg again tomorrow and give that a shot. Thanks senpai. I spent like three hours fucking with it the other day and couldn't figure it out Kek. Webm for retards was so much easier lel.

Im still not used to driving it in traffic tho considering i drove a vespa before it.

I dont know why but mine sounds like it has asthma , still a great bike though

Get an exhaust system for it. The 650's sound like sewing machines stock.

So it froze today. I swung by my work and picked up some "solar" blanket to wrap my pipes.

...

...

Anyone?

...

dad

Never nude hands my man.

...

...

I was thinking of getting a yoshimura exhaust but theyre so damn expensive, is twobrothers any good?
Also i just got this and aint sure how long im gonna keep it though so im avoiding investing in it for now.

By the way why does mine have a purely digital dash? Its a 2012 model btw i got it second hand

>DO NOT FILL ABOVE LINE
>garbage overflowing above the top

It all depends on usage. It would be great to commute on the ktm or yamaha but realistically the drz is the bettor choice for commute.

...

...

DR-Zs are already slow enough

Wear gloves nigga. Even if it is the only gear. Just wear the fucking gloves.

I don't think they make denim gloves.

I know senpai but I was feeling lazy and was just riding 1.5 miles to work. It was also like 25 degrees out which sucked.
I'd suggest two bros over yoshi
See above.

I knew you had gloves. Just giving you shit. Anytime I ride with skin exposed I feel a bit like when I would pull up to lights in my miata with the top down and track pads just going reeee. Naked as fuck.

Yeah I know that feel. I go so fucking squid most of the time now. The only gear I wear are some sidi riding shoes, a helmet, and some gloves.

Great way of explaining it, I forgot to stuff my gloves in my backpack on my way to pick up a bike once, I had everything besides gloves, I felt so vulnerable

>literally plebbit

DRZ user is rossi spam user.

Are you trying to tempt the Skid Demon on purpose?

>two bros

More like two deaf bros. Those pipes are always loud as fuck.

Sometimes. It has been a while since I met with him.

baird but youre the redittor m8

How's the new job?

...

Fucking right???

That's how I know he is one too.

Pretty great. Doing our first release tomorrow.
Finally sold the Oldwing too.
>have half of the 701 MSRP saved already
>feels good man

lol how long til yet get the KTMAvarna?

Like that's a bad thing!

I throw on the hoody sometimes instead of my jacket but still always gotta have gloves. Wish my 44 teeth hoody would show up already speaking of after 6 weeks.

Prolly January. Fucking CA.

How choked is the CA version?

Also why again didn't you go with a 690?

690 isn't available as a KTM with meme wheels in the US. At least I don't think so because the 690SMC-R hasn't been on the KTM US website for a couple years.

How the sound quality tho? I honestly prefer a deep growl compared to a louder whine

I would have gone with a used 690 if the 2017 701 didn't get the new engine that makes more power, revs higher and supposedly fixes the rocker bearing issue.
Also I sort of wanted new and used 690's are fucking $7000 for 20k miles.
Yes, I wanted the sumo version not an Enduro.

>California is the only state permitted to issue emissions standards under the federal Clean Air Act

>bring bike home
>remove charcoal can
>go about your day

Is a couple hp really worth 40 extra pounds?

>can't win the XRR vs 701 argument
>let's try the 690

>Implying the XRR isn't the better buy

but the 690 and 701 are literally the same bike

2017 new motor says bread

same motor in both

>go for a ride
>see illegals who stole your DRZ
>one jumps off your DRZ and takes your 701
>no CCW to stop them

Rode to work and back, so only road like 3mi. Too cold to go for fun ride after work. Coworkers thought I was nuts to even do that.

On the street I don't really care about the weight since it just makes it better on the highway.
Also it has a bigger tank, so that's some of that weight if you're talking about wet numbers.

did you not hear? they stopped making it.

That somehow makes it worse?
