Who /rideinrain/ regularly? Lessons learned? Dos and don'ts? It's literally the worst weather I have to deal with. Everyone I know is horrified I ride in tge wet but it doesn't seem so bad.
Brandon Evans
What is /dbt/'s opinion on KTM bikes? Not the motocross ones.
Leo Stewart
just go slower, it's that simple.
Riding in the rain is easy it's just fucking boring. I don't like it at all.
Logan Evans
Don't lean. Brake earlier. Get a pinlock visor, and don't open it while it's raining.
Josiah Cox
super duke looks gr8, regular duke is meh, and the rest I've seen are sumo's which are good for city riding and hooning.
Christian Parker
I'm not interested in sporty nakeds so I don't really care for them. I'm sure they're probably alright.
Everyone I know who had an RC8 had mega big issues and I'd just rather an EBR 1190RX in the sportbike realm.

Jayden Gray

Chase Diaz
yeah, it rains a bunch during the summer but not much during the winter. Looks like optimum time is february-march
Wyatt King
Easy rear wheel access for track use becausr "gotta change the rear fast for the 24hr race"
Noah Howard
Thats a pretty shit country if you have that shit.
Ryder Baker
yeah, that's the idea
David Gutierrez
easy rear wheel removal/adjusting the chain is also a breeze
Camden Miller
I didn't say it was a good sketch.
Andrew Turner
They should bomb the shit out of them again because its pretty shit and whipe that shithole out of the earth.

the flights there are actually pretty cheap, probably because the planes have sub-par maintenance and you're taking your life into your own hands, but meh
Kayden Long
Planes are fine
Aaron Carter

Jason Gray
well you can get flights from the west coast of canada for !$700 round trip which is like $500 USD
Usually people fly into the north or south city and buy a motorcycle, drive it the the opposite city, and sell it.
Parker Smith
Why dont you spam gs500 anymore?
Isaac Wilson
>drive it ride it*

Landon Rivera
What bike?
Isaac Sanchez
Ive pushed through really fucking heavy rainfall on a vepsa once, would not reccomend. Especially considering i didnt have a jacket and an open face helmet. It started raining halfway and i didnt have anywhere to stop. I still do it if it rains just a little .
Joseph Jenkins

Blake Gutierrez

Dominic Bailey
which one are you?
Ryder Perez
Because you care what some random faggot on the internet things kys
Tyler Gray
none of them. nobody in that webm is from here.
also it looks more like track practice in a kart park than an actual race, so the tiny wheelbase scooters are at an advantage that does not excuse how closely the bike is following them
Thomas Brooks
not really, I just wanted to hear your lame excuse so thanks for that.
Michael Sanders
none of them, I just like reminding people that a bike does nothing without a rider and there are people on scooters having more fun than you. I don't even own a scooter.
/dbt/ cares entirely too much about bikes and not enough about riding.
Henry Wood
Funnily enough every time somebody brings up riding they get shit on for their bike, where they live, what they wear, etc.
DBT is strictly for benchracing shitbikes because that's all these poor niggers can afford.
Jose Harris
Yeah I've been slowly researching it for about 6 months now and working out my route. Was going to go with a friend but he broke his leg riding, had to put his europe trip on hold, and can only take so many days off from work a year. He has to use the europe tickets in the next 6 months or so before they expire.
Dominic Morgan
Nice saying, but it's not true.
Some bikes can't do much even with a good rider. Some bikes perform the same as others but get uncomfortable fast, or aren't practical even for beer runs Some bikes might not even be worth riding outside of a kart track that's 90% turns, or riding outside their "class"
Owen Brooks
>Some bikes might not even be worth riding outside of a kart track that's 90% turns, or riding outside their "class"
not seeing the problem that sounds like a blast.
Daniel Sanders
>Nobike: the post
Grayson Parker
Thanks for proving my point, faggot.
Lincoln Richardson
It's a problem here because we're all so poor we can only afford one bike at a time plus a dirtbike
Liam Thompson
They look hideous, don't understand how people can like the design.
John Allen
>doesn't know beauty is subjective wew lad
Camden Edwards
Fuck off cuckboi i bet you want to suck my dick right now fagget
Sebastian Kelly
>autism the post
Josiah Scott
Looks way better than a ninja 250 or a cruiser senpai
Logan Scott
dumb nigger faggot kys
Ian Gray
>he thinks beauty is subjective Should have studied the Classics m8. >KTM fanboys on the rampage So they're better than complete trash, uh? Good to know.
Owen Nguyen
Ever looked at a bike and thought "goddamn, this looks like shit, there's a big crouched-over human shaped void in the contours"?
That's because they're designed to be ridden. If you put a rider on the bike all the ugly melts away and it's just a regular bike, only with a bigger tank and more "cradling" seat than it would have if it were a little more 'aesthetic' and car-like in appearance.
Brandon Turner
I don't and would never own a ktm because I think they're shit but just hating on the design is autistic.
post your bike
Noah Price
>KTM fanboys on the rampage No, but not understanding why people have different opinions is autistic.
Jace Price
See?
the bike is literally designed to be ridden
nekkid bike headlight assemblies do look like shit though
Jace Evans
Kucktm a shit
Julian Sanders
reminder that honda a shit
Bentley Davis
>excuses: the post Who said you can't have both? >post your bike Yeah, right, how about you post yours first? I'm not that retarded. The design of the duke is horrid. It looks like an abort of a bike. But I understand that just fine: they have shit taste.
Nathan Mitchell
I'm not the one shitting on other bikes. Post yours so we know what the god himself thinks a good bike is.
>inb4 sv650
Julian Green
Are you aware of the fact people don't just go and buy the bike they like the most, right?
Justin Morris
Nobody buys a bike the hate though
Josiah Cook
Not usually.
Jose Gutierrez
I would buy (and have) a bike I find visually ugly though.
I'm not a fan of the 1290 visually at all but I'd consider it if I was after a sport naked and if it rode the best it would be what I bought.
Bentley Cook
Fuck off you fat mexican piece of shit
Gavin Richardson
Unless they're retarded which wouldn't surprise me at this point.
Samuel Ortiz
people buy bikes they end up hating
do you think people really "outgrow" a ninja 250, even though it has a 0-60 time on par with entry level sportscars and handling that equals or exceeds bigger bikes?
i don't. i think they already outgrew the bike when they reached their adult height and didn't start noticing it until that one long trip where they spent a little more time planted firmly on the seat than usual.
Jason Garcia
When you start riding you might consider getting a bike you don't like because it's better than the others you can afford.
Ryan Anderson
Of course, that's not what I said though you dumb nigger.
Gavin Phillips
or because the internet told you it was a good bike to start on
Aaron Thomas
My dad really doesn't like his 1200GSA, still he bought it.
Jace Collins
You cant outgrow being a cuck
Jackson Foster
Sorry to break it to you user, your dad is retarded
Luis Watson
Just look at your dad.
Lucas King

Adrian Cox
He wasnt born a retard tho, idiot. Go prep some bulls
Ryan Allen
