>another shitbike dbt
BORING
guess ill check back later after the retards clear out

I wish there could be different generals for dirt bikes

fuck you faggots im gonna go ride

the drz400sm isn't a dirt bike though

it's a pure-bred street/carving machine

Just needs to be one for suzuki.
No one else starts shit like suzuki fags

I wonder if my 4 year old could sit still enough for a ride around the block.
I think he would bail on the first corner though.

Obtain sidecar.

Can i even put a sidecar on an fz-07?
That would look pretty silly.

Reminder that if a bike is 4 stroke and has less than 3 cylinders it's worthless.

>t. noskill

Nah, v twins are alright.
p twins on the other hand sound horrible.

Nigger we put a sidecar on a KLR 650 last year, you can do whatever the fuck you want.

stuff him into your backpack

That is a 2 stroke

v twins are wobbly and sound gay.

Still noskill

So cool !

I'll just follow him on his training wheeled huffy.
Hall I wish, he's tall for his age and wouldn't fit.

hhhnnngggg

>dark siding on the FRONT
wew lad

>t. someone insecure about his sexuality

going for a ride 'round Colonial Parkway.

Indianfag, I'll see you when/if i see you.

Wishing there was an affordable street supermoto that was fast

>[DRZ SHITPOSTING INTENSIFIES]

It's not the darkside on a sidecar, they don't lean.

Ayy lmao!

what music do you guys listen to when you ride?

Braaaap

none because I like ambient shit and it doesn't exactly work well with wind noise.

i am a suzukifag and that has nothing to do with my hatred for the dirt bike fags that plague dbt general.

No reason you can't start one, user. That's what that [Start a New Thread] link is for

Hey /dbt/,
Now that Victory and EBR have both folded which bike do you think will devalue faster to the point you can buy the model for under $5000?

I like the 1190SX but I figure the Octanes are more widespread and more likely do be found in a few years.

Also how much longer until Indian pulls a Victory and teases us with something awesome then delivers a re-bagged model instead?

Dee Bee Tee what do you think for $500?

It's no dual sport like I wanted, but....

>chambana.craigslist.org/mcy/5980984653.html

Dead battery and valve adjustment aren't too much of a problem. A burnt valve can be expensive.

>It was running when I parked it...

Kiss of death...

Youre part of the problem
Enjoy your shitbike btw

Yeah, not too confident in that burnt valve. Could be other reasons why it doesn't run.
Good point. Nope.jpg

>It's no dual sport like I wanted
>It's not what I wanted

but it's cheap, then again prob not in the long run

aren't they more likely to become collectibles and increase in price though? (Depends on how many were produced and sold I guess).

Indian will probably just do more of the same though since Polaris' "innovative" stuff (slingshot) failed pretty hard.

How much should I spend on my first helmet if I'm a poorfag?

...

Enough that it fits you correctly and is DOT and Ece certified.

$100

so snell and whatever isnt a big deal?

BiLT is okay? Always heard that it's not very good.

at least 200

€200, absolutely get an HJC FG-ST if it fits you.

Pretty sure fear would make them cling onto you like a vice. But your kid might be retarded.

Mine was fine, although I never crashed in it.

How can you say it's fine, then?

Because it made a fine helmet. I don't see a bunch of reports of people dying because their Bilt helmet didn't protect them either. In fact most Bilt gear I've had has been fine except the gloves. Their gloves are garbage

The cheap ones are only dot certified. the more expesive ones have ece and dot.

Yeee

That's not necessarily price dependent. My old HJC helmet which was $140 new is snell certified.

A helmet is fine only when it protects you. All the rest is a plus.

idk I've had helmets give me hearing damage because they don't block wind noise very well.

So I shouldn't buy any helmet I haven't crashed in? Otherwise I have no clue if it'll actually protect me or not, right?

I was talking about shitty bilt helmets. I also got a cheap hjc with snell when i got hit by a car and scraped my shoei.

Shiiiit nigga. Wasn't it that way today. I might head that way Wednesday

If only someone would make crash tests and compare helmets...

If you want a dual sport, keep waiting for one. You'll be waaaay happier.

helmet tests are done at like 5mph

EBR will probably drop off for a few years then start climbing. I can't see victorys being worth anything until they're a hundred years old or something.

>Wishing there was an affordable street supermoto that was fast

Plenty of men can afford new sumos. Become a man, afford manly toys.

It's okay, I'm sure your €75 helmet will do just fine when you'll crash at 130kmh.

>wrposter
Sorry bro, not me. I have a WRR but I don't participate in your aspergers induced shitposting.

>WR broke
Bike didn't break from the fall, just moved the brake master cylinder on the handle bars. I was able to twist it back when I picked it back up.

What broke was when I overtorqued one of the pinch bolts at my house and snapped it off.

Motorcycles aren't toys

...

Convert and uncork a XR650R and it will be faster than you can handle.

I'd give 250 for it with a presumed blown engine, then investigate. If fucked, part out on Ebay for profit. If not a mechanic, run away.

Collector market is saturated and will remain so as boomers die off. A motorcycle is not an investment. Buy to ride and be happy.

>I've had helmets give me hearing damage

I'm not retarded and wear foam ear plugs.

>supermoto conversion on a pigfat pos
I'd take a fucking drz400sm over that shit.

>would take heavier, slower bike
God damn suzuki fags never cease to amaze me with their stupidity

>DRZ400 weighs more and makes less power

u r dumb

DAILY reminder that if it's not harley it's not a real bike

See the post below yours.

DRZ literally weighs like 20 pounds more and has shit motor by comparison, you're a retard.

found the dumbest comment of the thread guys.

no one cares. fuck off.

go watch more snowcat videos

Would the Yamaha DT50/125 even remotely good to commute in a relatively big city?

...

...

Kek. I love the colors.

I want a white and light blue bike as my next one, it's the best combination.

Help me decide.

>Versys 650
>NC700X
>V strom 650
>Tiger 955i
>Tracer 700

Anything but those two shit 650s

Nc700x is even more shit than the 650's.

Id still take it over shitzuki or kawashitty

I passed my MSF class... barely

>Had to get an 80 or higher on the written test or else you fail the MSF course
>Got an 80

>Spent a day and a half trying to make the bike not stall, clutch is a piece of shit invention

>Had to get a new bike from the instructors because the original one they gave me had the shift lever snap off from me bashing the bike in anger and stomping on the lever whenever I got pissed

>New bike has a much earlier clutch friction zone which literally made a HUGE difference (in a good way)

>Get through the driving test with relative ease (except for that fucking double U-Turn box)

dude how do you get an 80 on the written test. It's piss easy.

Sounds like you dont need to be on a bike at all

>NC700X
Are you doing a long daily commute?

And this is how you end up as a statistic.

As the father of an autistic son, I see a lot of him in all of you...

no

I got my license in the end and there is literally nothing you faggots can do to stop me from getting a sportbike and going down the highway tomorrow

I don't really care but please buy a gopro so I can see the crash

Also
