DRZ a shit
No U
What is riding on bare, smooth rock like? How much of a problem is grip?
Looks so comfy
The slickrock near Moab actually has a massive amount of grip.
drz a shit
Why is the drz the new maymay bike? It's just something niggers ride here.

I don't know. It's not cheap for what it is, it's not powerful, it's not light, and it's not more reliable than the average pigfat "commuter" dual sport.
>400cc
>not even 10 pounds off from the DR650
>DRZ400: shit, but muh mawds!
>DR650: shit, but muh mawds!
All it has going for it is the factory supermoto conversion but then why do people buy the S and E at all?

>Mfw a german motorcyclist is near me
>mGw
would a DR650 be good if I want a cheap dualsport that I don't need to take care of except for changing oil from time to time?
RIT
take care
they are dangerous
Yeah but wet weights differ more significantly because the DR650 holds more gas (and burns it faster)
why aren't rally style fairings more popular?
honda put one on a shitty bike and suddenly made it sought after
they will be omnipresent very soon and be annoying like anything.
a few years ago people were saying the same thing about cafe racer styling.
because they are shit
Cafe racer styling still isn't popular because it's impractical cuckboi shit. Everyone replaced their bucket headlights and flat seats with curvier options as soon as they could.
At least rally styling has some function behind it
like???????
wrong, DR and DRZ are about 35lbs apart
yes if you're an offroad racer competing in some kind of extremely long endurance event and need protection for your rolling map and such but I'm sure you don't.
I'm sure you just want it for the look, same as cafe racer retards.
A little more wind and weather protection and protection/mounting points for more headlight and extra instrumentation
Who else rides over long distances and needs extra shit on their dash?
a lot of fucking people
Who needs to be more hunched over on their cheap UJM and shave 0.5lbs off with a thinner seat?
fucking nobody
on dual sports? because then there would be no reason to sell adventure bikes for twice the price.
Meanwhile in Brooklyn..

>$6,500
A 2016 CB500F is also $6,000; so who is still buying these?
>Honda
no one should be byuing thiese.
>0-4 play VtM bloodlines
>5-9 play something else
people with dignity. this is what the CB500F looks like. who buys this? europeans.
in the US, a good looking motorcycle either looks related to a harley davidson or looks like a race bike, and nobody gives a fuck because americans will always buy sportsters, clunkers, and GSXRs before they consider nekkids.
is a good bike
Here's the model honda moves in the US
>Americans
>dignity
Pick one.
>who buys this? europeans.
>who pulls facts out of their asses? Americans.
Any cb from the 70 is half that price unless it's perfectly restored.
You know why? because there's a fuckload of them.
>people with dignity
americans are still buying 70s CBs for that price because it's in the same aesthetic category as harleys (which cost four times as much)
Facts about the US:
Almost no americans know shit about bikes
Most americans do not need to because they never ride anywhere near the limit of their bike. Chicken strips: the country.
Most americans just care about the image and "lifestyle"
americans will therefore pay a lot of money for a small amount of bike
Lets remove the "the world is running out of fossil fuel" scenario. Consider how much better +circa 2000 bike designs look compared to bike before then. In 20 or 30 years, will we feel the same way about our current gen bikes? I can't see myself disliking our current designs in 20 years the way I dislike bikes from the 80's today. Any thoughts?

fuuuuuuck
love the red/white XT's, modern styling ain't got shit on these
>dGw I don't know that feel
phew
yes
2KF a best
>the world is running out of fossil fuel
even if it does we'll have bikes barring a feminized society banning danger
you can always use alcohol. you can recycle biomass into alcohols. you can use copper nanospikes to synthesize alcohols from atmospheric carbon.
the supersport of the future will run an alcohol fuel unless electric can finally beat the most advanced ICEs in power output, range, and component longetivity. lower end bikes not meant for competitition or enthusiasts will probably have electric motors though.
gut dass hier so viel bullen rumlaufen, in berlin habe die halt keine kohle dafür
>er kennt das Fühl nicht
sei froh
related to your pic i just remembered i got some used Handguards from an old DT
i think they will fit on the TT, too.
and also used old but foldable shift lever.
we'll see tomorrow if everything fits.
Ich hab hier letztes mal keine oder so gut wie keine gesehen
>sei froh
Yes, I am
Nice
How is the TT running?
Is it running?
...
>TT
I still want a TT350
I also want to sell my CB500S and get I hornet
But I also finally want an AW11
help
>tfw burger
>tfw I want to tell you you're wrong
>tfw you're not
feels bad man.
new CB/CBR500s are fucking terrible and I hope europeans aren't buying them.
Nobody should be buying them.
>the way I dislike bikes from the 80's today
Really? I like basically all sportbike styling from start to finish.
yes, läuft seit ewigkeiten, seitdem ich Vergaser eingestellt hab. Weiß nicht welcher memlord das is der immer behauptet ich hätt 3k für die bezahlt und das se nicht laufen würde.
wenn man ihr die richtige griff stellung gibt beim kicken geht se beim ersten kick direkt.
step 1:
kys
alternative route:
sell turd honda, keep Panda, buy TT350, and fuck your cousins
forget le snap oversteer turd, because it will rust under your ass anyways in european winter, and for warm days you have bikes so you don't need another warm days vehicle.
good night /dbt/
Ich war sehr wenig hier in den letzten Wochen, damals lief sie glaub nicht wenn ich mich iirc
Nicht schlecht
Gute Nacht
my plan actually is
Keep Panda, buy MR2 during Summer 2017, keep CB500S, sell in 2018, buy Hornet/Striple
Note sure where or when to buy the TT though
I mean the CB500S has like 11k km on the clock, would be a shame to sell it now
I .. I like the muffler.
jetzt läuft sie auf jeden Top, muß aber seit zwei Monaten zum TÜV, deshalb rasten alle auf der Arbeit aus.
muß noch gucken, dass ich Geld für neues Dämpfer hinten finde weil muß neu.
und will neuen Auspuff, aber erstmal TÜV fertig machen und mein Auto reparieren/neues kaufen lel
shit plan m8
you didn't even fuck tour cuisines in this one.
I like the whole thing
wehe du kaufst dir ne hornet
warum?
Bin mir eh nicht sicher was ich will.
Wie gesagt, ne Hornet, Street Triple oder so, irgendeine naked mit 4 Zylindern am liebsten.
Looks like something a storm trooper would pilot.
>irgendeine naked mit 4 Zylindern am liebsten.
same here, und ich weiß echt nicht welche ich will, triumph ist halt hart teuer
>beaten by a fucking econobox
Ducati a shit
FZ8 ist n geiles Teil imho
fährt sich wie ein dream
Jo, für den Preis der Striple kriegt man schon eine CB1000R oder so (von der wr anton denkt es wär die Fireblade)
Ich würd auch gern die Daytona 650 holen wei >ayy lmao, aber naked ist comfier
All you needed to do was get your WR125 again, wranon
It's all your fault
also ich bin ja hart zwischen der CB600f, der Suzuki GSR600 und der FZ6 am struggeln, ich will doch einfach nur n neues mopped, fuck my life
ja schau ich aus als hätte ich nen geldscheißer im keller?
> > > > cbr r rr
> 6 grand für ne gute
jetzt komm mal klar du armer Schlucker
gs 500
what's my fault
no one would have died if you rode your wr125
>armer Schlucker
ich bin net arm, ich geb einfach nur ungern mein ganzes geld auf einmal aus lel
wenn ich arm wär würd ich mir sowas kaufen, die sind so spottbillig hier
more grip there than any of the roads we were on
the honda cardinal?

When does No Prisoners 2016 Vol 2 release
desu I love 90's bike design, the fzr 600 is the pinnacle of japanese front fairing design in my opinion.
Does Konstantinos read these threads? AFAIK he just releases the vids whenever
>trapezoid headlight
dual round headlights better
Did WR user get killed? Is that what the fuss is all about?
He could have been a hero, he could have saved them all.
I didn't die today guize, remember I've been a skeleton since SEM3000.
Also 9 dead last I heard.
But he looked down and whispered
>n-no
...
>shifts by moving his whole leg up at the hip
whaaaaaat
yes?
but why? just move at the ankle
probably raced dirt bikes as a kid like any decent rider. You learn to shift with your leg because MX boots allow practically no ankle movement.
It's amerabloated and it's not even indigenous.
...
it looks like its alive
>just move at the ankle
>with kevlar reinforced racing boots
these aren't your $50 boots.
for motogp i figured theyd have some amazingly mobile as well as protective boots. they're always up for more feedback.
but the ducati webm looks like he has mobility
I don't think any of their boots are reinforced with kevlar dude. Lowes has a pair of tcx boots, just leather.
>Lowes
