it's stock, immediate issues are gone and not abused by the cancerracer meme.
pls, i just want to move on to a """bigger""" bike, as some faggots say

Anything will sell if you know how to sell and know how to price it right
Ayden Mitchell
you should try and compare the FZ07 to the Shiver i gues plagiarism still is a form of flattery, but even then...
Xavier Thompson
But unlike yours, it's not tweaked/bent/somehow unstraight

It's easy to figure out that the garage space required for one mid sized car can just as well accommodate up to six motorcycles, and a single garage space is a rather easy goal in life. But what would be your personal dream half dozen to stuff into it?
Jackson Ramirez
instead it is because i cocked up the torque on one of the retaining bolts
Jace Williams
Made a good noise. Shame it was a rust bucket and wouldn't start below 5C.

Landon Mitchell
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much like a leafblower does the FZ6 sound with the stock exhaust?
Isaac Cooper
pffffbrtbrtbrtbrtbrtbrt/10
Xavier Parker
Cheeky you don't know what perspective is
I've set on a shiver and a fz09. The shiver is sexual feeling but I don't really want to go down in power at this point. I miss v twin torque though
And the fz09 felt super low. I'm not wild about it. I'm surprised they haven't made a faired version yet
Jaxon Ortiz
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

>mfw third day on first bike and you accidently wheelie it
After the initial freakout my helmet could hardly contain the shit eating grin on my face.
Ayden Moore
Finally paid off. Selling it to put money down on a 16 brutale 800rr dragster.
Xavier Rivera
I'm still too scared to do proper wheelies on the DL as I have no insurance.
Daniel Collins
How do you accidentally wheelie?
Michael Long
1. turn the throttle when on first 2. keep turned up to 8krpm 3. ???? 4. suddenly wheelie

Are bikes a good substitute for friends?
Julian Rodriguez
Yes

I need more ground clearance. I keep banging up the exhaust and bottom of the fairings when I'm popping over curbs and rocks and shit.
Daniel Barnes
How much of a difference do the 20-30 hours of compulsory training that Yuropians have to do (compared to the US) realistically make?
David Johnson
I'd go as far and say women
Tyler Cook
Judging by how I learned, school of hard knocks, enough to teach you the basics and get you on the road. But you will still be a shit inexperienced rider.
Big difference if you don't take any courses, no difference if you do.
There are some basic techniques and ideas that I know for a fact some people manage to ride for years without knowing. This causes issues in panic situations, so not great riders.
But if you get some basic instruction and a safe place to understand the limits of a bike (such as a day course or weekend course), or if you just take it upon yourself to find a parking lot and a knowledgeable friend, then I'd say it makes almost no difference.
Ryder Stewart
so you just pissed money away for nothing, for a bike you didn't want...
Evan Thompson
brb fellas, taking pics of my bike so i can put it up for sale
Joshua Garcia
Nope I bought a bike that I wanted for a starter bike, put about 6k on it and want something faster. I got it for dirt cheap 4500 and I my buddy already offered 5500 for it. It's a great bike and would keep it if I could afford multiple bikes but alas I can't.
Leo Green
Open the throttle completely in low gear.
Austin Bailey
>6k on a pretty fast bike >want something faster already
What for?
Also in what kind of shit place do you live where bikes cost any substantial amount?
But the courses we get here in yurop are designed to not only understand the limits of a bike, but also knowing how to control it properly and how to react in emergency situations before we even go riding on the streets. And not the calm and empty roads, no, right into the hell where stalling means blocking an entire town. In my case, the most wealthy town in the country and you can bet your arse than they don't like being held up and those fancy cars don't have calming horns.
Nathan Flores
How much is owning a bike per year (in road legal state)? I'm paying about €300/y, going down every year as my insurance goes down (about €10 every year)
Sebastian Perez
Other side of the road, also not a corpse apparently.
Aiden Mitchell
Is the riding position on SlowVehicle650S as awful as it seems?
John Martinez
>never ridden one >calls it slow
Samuel Garcia
Not as nice as a Ninja 500. Still OK though.
Tyler Peterson
how can you find out if you haven't rode one yet?
Cooper Hall
6"3, really want a sports bike for my first 600, am I being an idiot? I'm looking at the zx6r and cbr600, but also tempted by the bandit 650s for comfort. Suggestions?
>shitbike defense force can't handle -any- banter As expected. I sat on it, seems like it's back cramp waiting to happen compared to ER6 and FZ6, which are my other options.
Thomas Peterson
How much for the rearsets?
Juan Perry
>banter It'd be banter if it was somewhat true though.
Leo Myers
I just looked up the specs. It's not a particularly quick bike. You could call it slow even.
First 600, i've done my time learning on my 125. I'm doing my direct access at the end of the month and want something I can enjoy and look after.
Samuel Howard
Fz6 is p comfy and decently quick. Not that fast but fast enough
Joshua Stewart
What are your trying to prove? That it can accelerate on a straight line?
Grayson Scott
Get a litre faggot 600s are a dead market in the EU
Brayden Robinson
You """learn""" stuff but that doesn't mean shit. Bad riders will be bad riders. As long as you get taught it, it doesn't matter how long you were taught it for.
I did a 2 day course (I think 16 hours total) and it was everything from learning how2clutch to emergency avoidance and loss of traction simulations. I feel like that could be cut down to 8 hours or so if you already know how to ride (the whole first day we basically only learned the basics, didn't even get into 2nd gear iirc).
So yeah, I think that 4-8 hours of course + knowing how to actually control a bike is sufficient. Knowing how to control a bike without knowing what it feels like to be in panic situations isn't enough. But 20-30+ hours? Seems excessive. Not sure what you could have possibly learned extra other than perhaps having lengthier in-class practice.
Eli Roberts
Why? I'm seeing plenty of 600's in local ads
Angel Ramirez
>will my GS sell? :/
No. No more GS will ever be sold. Kek wills it.
>How can afford to keep totaling bikes?
Seek competing quotes! My bro who was into good old fashioned redneck insurance fraud knew that insurance companies don't really give a shit about wrecks, so when he totalled a vehicle he'd switch companies after the payout.
BTW if you need to total a car or truck, buckle the cab floor. Also for trucks, bend a front frame horn in the crush zone. For cars, smash either rear quarter sufficient to crumple the trunk and rear suspension mounts.
Bikes? Sneeze at them and they're done.
Modern bikers crash at least monthly so plan your fleet accordingly. Crashing is cool and you should treat the street like the track because they both have pavement.
>How do you accidentally ride straight into a car?
By deliberately avoiding all the other options.
Josiah Carter
what is the Miata of the bike world
Joseph Price
You on a restricted bitch license or fully unrestricted? If the latter get a fazer thou, or get an older R1 and take it steady if you are desperate for a sportsbike.
Where in the UK are you?
Brayden Parker
>Not sure what you could have possibly learned extra other than perhaps having lengthier in-class practice How about KNOWING how to do that, not having done it a few times. Yes, after the first few lessons I could ride that bike no problem. But I was still doing shit consciously, not automatically. My instructor regularly let me do shit I didn't do for weeks and expected me to do it perfect the first try.
The amount of people here asking the most basic questions shows me proper riding lessons would help out a lot. I wonder if it's even mandatory to know all parts of a bike and how to check if it's right or not.
Aaron Smith
Noob rider needs new short boots without looking like a gaudy Italian power ranger or a hipster douche..
Any suggestions for the best looking motorcycle shoes? think of retro gentleman rider theme please
Wyatt Ward
>modern bikers crash at least monthly This is true. I go through bikes like bottles of lube
Michael Cook
>need short boots No you don't. You need proper boots.
Jackson Kelly
Can I wear those with kevlar jeans?
I seeking a high end boot, any suggestions?
Leo Hill
Get cheap leathers and some low end riding boots with ankle support, ya noob
Josiah Nguyen
what's your budget

No thanks, I look great already

Noah Barnes
Has anyone else turned into a completely reckless faggot since starting riding?
I remember thinking to myself "Oh, I'll always just go the speed limit".
"Oh, I'll never speed. I don't want to die. Hell, I might even just avoid highways all together"
Fast forward to today, some ducati rolled up behind me (Gixxer) at a stop light and I tried to get him/her to race. Even gave the faggot a thumbs up and he/she didn't do so much as a nod. I took off, hit 120 in a 45, and then see this faggot slowly crawl up in my mirror doing the speed limit.
god
what a loser
Justin White
very helpfull thanks ;0

>tfw torn between the economy of 600s but want the power and torque of 1000+
Lucas Roberts
I'm looking at getting a cruiser for this reason
Anthony Sanders
Only sometimes. I notice that when I don't have a grill that cares for me I'm riding like a fucking maniac, like going 160-180 on 60 roads. Otherwise I'm not going 20km/h over.
Jose Butler
Get a S1000R
David Baker
As expected of a gixxer owner
Luke Phillips
Looking for a new exhaust for my bike. Too many options, don't know what I should get.
Any suggestions? I've been running the factory exhaust for 6 years, but it's dented to shit now and any of the aftermarket options are 6-10lbs lighter.
I'd like to stay under 96db, 94 would be even better.
Luis Jones
>Economy of 600s It's a meme. Fuel economy is proper shit on these m8e
Brayden Murphy
If you can afford a 1000 you don't need the economy of a 600.
Jeremiah Torres
Would you guys trust your bike to take you on a 1000 mile road trip?
Elijah Thompson
There's no comparison really In terms of bike style I'd say a 250 supersport But there's so many options if you want one of those, where as Miata was usually the only player in that segment
