yes it is ugly but they were thinking they didn't want to put the fuel tank as high up as possible

did u start work on the drz yet?

...

nice tires. how long do they last?

about to go soak some carbs in diesel. how long should i soak em?

I started tearing it down but don't have the engine out yet, I've been out of town for the past week.

About a year

If you are doing what you want why do you want to slide across the ground buddy?

How the fuck do people learn to back out on A super moto?

supermoto thread

...

backing it in is just something that happens when you are braking toward the apex putting all the weight on the front and doing the supermoto drop-3-gears-at-once that causes the rear to slip out

>left handed
get out

Supermoto......"thread"

Just seems fun to just throw the bike down and slide through the corner and make it.
Im actually right handed m8.

got gap insurance through allstate on my new zx6r

if i crash it into a wall, they will pay off the loan AND give me a check for the cash value of the bike?

asking for my uncle

>shoes inside the house
Americans.

I swear to god if the weather app is trolling me again about the two next weeks im jumping off a cliff. Winter is killing me

I want a dual sport but dont know where to start.

Actually I store shoes in my house so no one steals them. We are an Asian based state it would be rude to not take your shoes off in the house.

No.

First decide what percentage of street/dirt riding you want to do, then budget, then any possible brand fanboy tendencies. After that you'll probably realize that nothing fits all those criteria and buy a DR650 like everyone else.

i dont understand

>tfw lyfe

mangs.

you mean pay off the loan and give you a check for the balance of the value of the bike?

if they decide the bike was worth more than you owed, anyway

>5'8
I didn't know we allowed kids here

Post your riding jacket. Pic related.

Can we discuss why Honda is the greatest sportbike maker on the planet?

I don't know. I switched to dual sport tires before those wore out.

Just b urself. It gets pretty good senpai.

>no armor
no ty

Basically this, only in textile

I don't think you can discuss which bike is the best when your chicken strips are that wide.

You're in your bedroom with outside shoes.

What does /dbt/ think of these vests? They do anything to protect you in a crash?

No, what gap coverage does is this:

Say bike is valued at $10,000 for the sake of numbers

Depreciation kicks in, you crash and the bike is only deemed worth $7,000

Insurance pays out $7,000 and you're still left with $3,000 worth of debt to pay off on bike.

gap coverage pays the leftover $3,000 of debt.

More for offroading imo, wore a Dainese Mantis vest on my THAT trip and it was useful a few times.

>5'8''

protects your spine but thats about it.

I'm actually 5' 9" but I can't quite flat foot this bike on both sides.

so if i've had my fun with the bike and want something else i should gear the fuck up and jump off before it hits the wall and i walk away from my debt?

>5'9''

lelling at your life squigga

You still won't get your down payment back and all the money from insurance goes to your lienholder anyway.

Just get good.

6'3"
Yeah I'm jelly af

There's no way you're 5'9, I thought I was. Or I'm 5'10"

Get on my level, you failed manlets, I'm 170cm.

I'm like 5'8.6" barefoot, and my boots have a 1.25" heel, so out and about I'm basically 5'10", but I know that's cheating so I just say 5'9".

no wonder you like to fuck underage chinks

cause I had to take a picture.
Lmao im 5'10" and I rode the klx 300 tip toe.

MANLETS OUT

Yeah, I wish I had a qt3.14 Japanese gf. ;_;

>I'm like 5'8.6" barefoot, and my boots have a 1.25" heel
This is how manlets figure out their height...

Kill yourself, dumb frogposter.

Leg extend yourself, manlet.

...

Why would I? Manlet life is best life. You should cut your legs, lanklet.

...

Yo, what sort of stuff? I can sort you out for free, since I have a shitload of vinyl laying around that I need to do something with.

>frogposter giving advice on autism to anyone

Dunno. What you have? Take a pic maybe. I'll pay you if I like some stuff.

>manlets having a valid opinion

lmao neck yourself and do the genepool a favor

how are you even reaching the keyboard

You don't need to be this jeaolus.

I post from my bed.

>being jealous of manlets

What a world you live in user

Manlets are the masterrace.

>lanklet jealous he will forever look like a farm appliance
t scarecrow

>tfw no 6'0" round numbers still short enough to get swole master race

Got a question. Why does every sportbike based bike that is turned into a more upright standard get rid of the full fairings?

Or; is there a middle weight bike (600-750 3 or 4 cylinder) with a more neutral riding position with upside down forks and full fairings? A little brother to a GSX - S1000F of a sort.

tfw better than all of you

Noticed you didn't say you were >white

>gets quads as well

stay strong fellow lanklet

yes
as a general rule, remove from the name the "R"s that stand for "Race Replica"

>lanklet
I love how the manlets have banded together in an attempt to make themselves feel better. Remember no matter how many times you say it you'll never get taller.

If you can afford the travel and time off work/school
I would definitely go
General admission for the Moto GP is only $90 for three days plus parking

They might also have some decent bands playing in-between races

>quads dont lie
Stay big, stay humble

I bet you like naruto, faggot.
What is the movie Kon was working on whe he died called?

this italian piece of shit turned off while I was going and never turned on again. The dash is blank even when I turn the key, the battery is well fixed in place and should be new, fuses are alright, cables are all connected, idk what the hell to do.

Because they're not really meant to be on the track or highway cruisers, they're meant as DDs/city bikes. IMO fairings don't do much under 70-80mph where you will usually be on one of those bikes if you ride it as intended.

Also, the lower weight of a 600 matters less since they're less performance oriented, and the higher torque of the 1000 platforms matters more for daily driving, imo.

How come you read dickgirls comics, lanklet?

Im part koori my cuz true master race

1 - alternator or voltage regulator are fukt
2 - why are you using the 5th image from google search
3 - te l'avevo detto, coglione

Well, lanklet is anyone over 6'3" or so. I think most people would agree 6'0" to 6'3" is master race.

Full fairings generally interfere with any bars besides low clip ons, so when they raise the bars they remove the fairing. Though some light sport tourers (VFR800 etc.) may be what you're looking for.

I'm only now realizing that the VFR800 has pretty much no direct competition. I wonder why that is. They seem popular enough.

i could go on

You mean you don't?

Of course not.

Shortest guy to win Dakar, he used to be, 5'5". Now he's 6ft. (((underground)))
Stop caring about your height and just go ride bikes you fuckers. If you're 5'9 give or take you can ride whatever bike you want and not look like a gorilla in Mario kart or some gay shit.
Nice grom

you're missing out

>ninja 650
>direct competition to VFR800

youll cowards don't even smoke crack

>direct competition
i thought we were talking about faired non sportbikes
