Go to the doctor or urgent care or something. I dislocated my kneecap two years back and they gave me a brace and told me some exercises to do to help make sure it doesn't happen again.

hey fatcunt
how many gaskets have you blown through?

Got it checked out. Just pulled a tendon and just have to ice the swelling and "stop being an idiot" for a few weeks.

That last part seems like a tall order.

haha nicely memed friend.

I weigh less than 60kg and my gaskets are in mint condition

Unf

sure thing bud
wy@, meet any other italianon?
how's the bike, solved the white smoke?

Oh my

>Not having a car, a truck and a bike

Post more lewd baikus, I'm all out

by the very nature of a gasket there is no such thing as mint condition that has already been fitted

Looks p uncomfy my dude

>Kaffs minority

Just do a wheelie

does somebody have a sv650 here? I would like to know how to make it more modern looking without doing extreme conversions, I am about to get one and wanna know

I solved all the problems it had by simply changing the battery, although I'm worried it could die again, I feel like it has some kind of electrical problem that causes the battery to be drained quickly, maybe a faulty alternator
for now it goes like a beast and it's super scary
whatever, smartass

What do mean modern looking? Isn't the 2017 model modern looking?

First bike, 6'4" dude. Yay or nay?

ah I just got what wy@ means
I'm in SERIE B MERDE SI VOLA

while i was conefagging a blinking SLIDE came up on the shivvy's dash for a split second
i was not sliding at all
tuono anons?
anyone?
is my bike haunted?

looks like a standard from the 1980's

hell fucking yay nigga
not a fan of naked bikes but damn
also
>dat displacement

sweat a little bit, ignore it, and pray it never comes back

95% of the time it wont

So you want it to look like an FZ? Or are you just asking for how to put fairings on it?

100% sure I won't look like a retard?

oh forgot to mention that I mean a second gen sv650

Slide demon is the little brother of the skid demon

I'm not the one looking to mod it, just saying it looks like a standard from the 80's

...

It'll be okay
I'm 6'4 and okay with my fz6
My neighbor is like half a head taller than me and is riding a fucking rc390

are there any decent modern motorbike movies, all the noteable ones seem to be 50's-70's then nothing

You'll look like this when trying to get hektik

what are some basic tools I need to start wrenching on my own bike? I have a gs500 if it helps

Perform a charging system check per your service manual using a voltmeter.

Learn battery resting voltage and charging system voltage. Both exceed 12 volts which is nominal system voltage. If ur battery is 12v or barely over without engine running there's a problem. If engine running doesn't increase voltage to spec, there's a charging system problem.

Never jump start a bike off a running auto lest ye fry shit.

>less than four cylinders
Only fags and children do this

socket set, multimeter, couple of big pliers, screwdriver with a bunch of bits, vice grip

having a trickle charger always helps too and they're like $35 on amazon

Seems fine to me, maybe a bit weird to have the elbows touching the legs...

ye, but if i intentionally initiate a skid i've never had it

yeah it's not bad, you'll look fine

cheers man. I've heard that torque wrenches are really handy as well, do you think it's worth getting one?

make sure that the tools you buy are metric / non metric whatever you need for your bike. torque wrenches are recommended and an impact wrench makes some things easier.

was it a specific light or did it come up to your dash in writing?

I want a sporty standard from the 80s but the nearest one to me is a two hour drive and nearly three grand.

Only for installing sprockets, wheels, and engine bits.

Sadly they don't always fit where spark plugs have to go.

if you want to replace the chain yourself, get a chain tool and optionally an additional chain breaking tool (makes breaking the chain much easier and doesn't cost much)

>doesn't cost much

if you want it to break on the first use

drobe pls

>less than 6 cylinders

Say that to my face fucker.

is this an actual thing?
can I get this as a shirt?
Damn I should run the Ring with this on

pic related, seems like AutismMx . org is a thing lmao

GL1500 chopper one day.

>cylinders

>impact wrench is driven by a motor
>impact driving is turned by hand like a wrench
am I retarded? shouldn't those names be switched?

Poo

helmet id?

>kickstart
>rotary, but puny redline
>cooling equipment weighs more than the engine

Rf1200

>first day in 3 weeks without shitty rainy weather
>commute to work by bike
>last meeting starts 6pm
>cant enjoy nice weather on a short bike trip

On the bright side I met two guys with a r6 and a bike I couldn't identify yesterday, will be riding with them sometimes soon

I think my clutch is slipping lads
everything is just fine up to about half throttle but at full throttle,
Rpms go way up, bike moves but not as fast as i think it should
Then the sound and rpms stable out and it pulls a little better.
My friend said it might be running too rich and to fix that first though.
>carbs
Any opinions?

I recently got a 1995 Kawasaki Ninja 600r with stock rims and was wondering if y'all knew any good websites to buy tires off of? (Texas here if that matters any)

Incorrect.

Is clutch

Revzilla has decent prices on tires.
Put em on yourself if you can. If not some shops do it for like $20 each if you just bring the wheels in.

God dammit.
Thanks.

When is the last time you changed your oil?

My birthday today, so hoping for good weather in the afternoon so I can ride and forget about the world and the people in it.
I feel like life has improved since I got my baby.

A little over 1,000 miles ago. I change it pretty regularly. It has been doing this for a while
Its usually when its warmed up and only happens in gears 3-5.

happy birthday user

Happy birthday fag
Definitely the clutch bro, not usually a hard job though.

>500 bucks
nigga what

enjoy it

That truck is like a visual statement of autism

...

Enjoy your birthday though

writing, all caps

I guess i really should buy a service manual now eh?

happy birthdude

Weird, I've never seen that..

I've kind of just learned to ignore all the weird little one-time electrical gremlins for my own sanity

Maybe, look for a guide on youtube for your bike. Its actually really easy to do on most bikes.
Soak the plates in oil overnight.

>imagine being too poor for a bike made after the year 2000
What if you own a bike that was built in 2003 but has been manufactured relatively unchanged since 1988?

>tfw Yamaha Virago

>tfw you take off the day from work, drive 45 minutes to the nearest BMW Motorrad dealer with cash in hand only to discover that they're aren't even open (moved from another location), despite listing sales hours
>and when you do manage to talk to one of their reps, you find out they don't have any G310R in inventory and aren't expecting them for another month

post more RS 250

whats a running auto

do you not own one of mr Bells newfangled voice throwers?

Alright thanks man

To be honest, it never even occurred. Nothing on their website indicated that they were not up and running, and they listed normal sales hours. I also assumed that a BMW dealership would have their newest model on hand for at least a test drive.

That's not even a high end helmet.

Got it on black Friday sale and used the gift card the dealership gave me with the bike so it cost me $200 out of pocket

...

Fuck you kit Kat, but thanks anyway.

Thanks all my dudes for the bday wishes.
Almost makes me not depressed.
Gotta get back to cleaning weapons now

will do, thank you very much

hey!
how's it going /dbt/?

i hate to be asking for advice, especially from you lot, but what do you fags think about these two motorcycles?
i'm a fairly new motorcyclist iliving in ethiopia wanting to pop my cherry with my very first baiku, i've got roughly $3,000 to spend and i want something exciting. my choice are limited and after looking around for a bit, i've brought it down to two bikes.
