71 in eastern PA. Dialing in all the Christmas goodies.

Thoughts on fz1?

Yeah dude let me take my sport bike through these foot deep ice puddles and 6" deep slush ruts.

Also the fucking garage is frozen shut still probably.

Can't into embed m8s

Yee doggo

Good sport touring. I know a guy that has gotten to 100k miles on two different bikes with just routine maintenance.

Where you at man? But yeah I feel you I don't take it out until the roads are dry.

Alberta. It will get cold again, snow some more, and not actually properly melt until April or May anyways.

>Implying I don't post from work.
I'm on the phone all day famalam, it ain't no thang

I'll take a REEEE over mocking. Thanks m8.

What are the goods? I'm getting giddy about my spring gear buys and maybe upgrading my bike.

I've lived further north in the US and this story sounds oh so familiar. Hang in there man. My bikes going back into slumber after this weekend.

I rode on Jan 1st here in Des Moines.
>pic related
Did a longer ride yesterday and damn I need to pick up some risers or taller bars for my V-Stronk.

I want to see footage from the cams they put on assault dogs.

>Them ears
I kek'd heartily

That's me at work too.

(pls no fire)

We had a mid 50s day back in January but I couldn't be bothered to get my bike out of storage. And all the road salt? No thanks.

its you pussy

CB250, roughly 70 degrees F, Front tire: IRC GS-11 AW; Rear: IRC Durotour RS-310

It helps to actually attach
>pic related

It has been pretty mild overall down here. It had been dry for over a week when I decided to ride it.

Kek. Having an office job has done definite perks, I can shitpost all day.

>Tfw the [current year] meme is 6 years old now

need some help lads
is there a way I can paint/colour/wrap my chrome exhaust to make it matte black? The chrome is really shitty, rusty, heat stained low quality trash and I want to cover it up

Cold is fine. Snow is not, famalam.

Most of us do hate winters.
>no snowdays when you have a career
>quit skiiing in middle school
>lazy sack anyway

>Not having a truck a bike and a car
Shits cash

Without winter you don't have skiing, and skiing is the titties.

At least it's not an iPhone

>cyclecruza

>not having two cars, a truck, and TWO bikes
M8 pls

>not having a fleet of extended hummers, a semi truck, an aircraft carrier AND a unicycle
plebian, if you ask me

I'm p jelly. I subscribe to the n+1 role when it comes to motored vehicles

dire

Hummers are for plebs. Real men drive modded CJ and TJ and xjs for their off-road use.

Shitposting aside, don't be too jelly. Only one bike and one car are legally and/or mechanically drivable.

so I've been thinking
Instead of saving up 7k for an SV650, I'll save up 7k for a CB500F, a Shoei helmet, and a decent set of leathers.

it's finally perfect weather to go out riding yet you faggots prefer to argue with some tripfag neckbeards

Hey man he asked about the wr250r, not for a great motovlogger.

Better gear is always the better choice.

why don't you save up like 2.5k for a used sv650 instead

Posting DR-z400 spam.

I should probably trip at this point

there are 0 used s650s for where I live. I've been checking for nearly a year. There are also 0 svfs where I live, not that I'd want one anyway.

Which bike

The V-Stronk is good to go. The DR650 needs a little work and I still haven't found which box it's registration is in to get it titled here in Iowa.

Nice. I ordered my clutch MC rebuild kit today, and I'm going to rip the carbs again tomorrow.

>he doesn't have a G63 AMG 6x6

Useless.

I'd rather have a 6.7 swapped bronco

post more dirty 350

I'll pass

First ride of the year

Please contain your orgasm.

What brand oil are you dudes using in your God machines?

Pro Taper Carmichael bar on the way! Trying out grey grips for the first time too. Gonna see how i like it.

>tfw Guzzi v7
Will I die horribly?

Usually crisco

You're already fucked in the head, at least you'll stay in the produce section.

Just put that ugly wrap on it that's used on rat bikes

Motul 4T 5100 in both bikes.

>Bucket lights

-Inferior aerodynamics slowing you down and causing you to consume more fuel.
-Almost unversally make for worse projectors
-Normally mounted to the forks instead of a bracket that links back to the frame. More weight on forks = bad.
+a bit lighter than a modern light housing and gauge cluster

Seriously just let them die, cafefags

Also bar-mounted mirrors are garbage

nothx

But im stuck at work for 3 more weeks :/

>My little motorcycle can't be this cute
3spd auto clutch i'm guessing?

Biggest plus though, round headlights are top tier best looking.

>Please respond.

Sad day when I agree with that guy.

They are certainly the cutest

Email people

And no problem BB ;)

Hue?

Time stamp your pan.

to meet people on map just send an email to the address they listed. If there's no listed email address they're probably not active, but you can try to contact them in the thread if you want.

There are instructions to get added on the map page.

Huex2 this snow can fuck right off, need the roads to dry up to, fucking gravel.

>living in a sub zero hell hole

Muh dick

I don't mind the mantis lights on the speed/street triple but damn this and the old dual round headlight look good.

...why?

That actually looks good with a round light.

Gives me lots of time to fuck around in the shop and suffer from PMS, but mainly fuck around in the shop.

Why not?

Great looking bike.

I think a round headlight looks great. I would love one of these, but they're too fucking expensive.

Fuck that's cool man

It's at the shop that's a 30 minute drive north of town and belongs to the welder chick that owns the shop? Be weird if I said "Hey some guy on the internet wants me to timestamp your panhead I drool over"

That's too autistic for this shop user.
