Meme bike best bike
Aaron James
That's not a meme bike, it's just a shit ""bike"". THIS is a meme bike.
Leo Nelson
>you know what would be a good a idea >a motorcycle that can`t fall over and has more space >we'll have to put more than two wheels and make it wider >say the size of a small car should do it Hmmm, what did you mean by this?
Jacob Perry
It's good for transporting beer and small cabinets
Ayden Evans
That's also a shit bike.
Caleb Gonzalez
Wrong FZ is the supreme meme machine
James Parker
FZ is the older meme but it's not on the same level of memery.
Nobody is disputing that.
Landon Nguyen

Post acutal meme bikes
Jose Ortiz
I've carried more on my KLR than that. Also why not post a WebM of you leaning the things like Indi would.
Dominic Barnes
Careful with that edge man. This is Veeky Forums. If anyone from /r9k/ or /b/ sees this, they will use weaponized autism to track your ass down based on the angle of solar radiation reflecting off of something and the rotation of your arm hair as it relates to the Cornelius effect.
Luke Morris
Have you guys ever had to remove a dent from your tank? While I was abroad some sort of minor storm blew my SV onto someone scooter, and his handlebars dented my tank. It sits right in the curve of it as well
Jaxson Gomez
I have taken more pictures of distinct gs500s than anything else
Ryan Rogers
How badly would I rape the value of my bike if I put some fairly aggressive clipons on a sport standard?
Zachary Stewart
I can't wait for those fairing colors and decals to become fashionable again.
Noah Perez
Keep the original handlebars, put them back on prior to selling the bike (or at least offer to do it). Why would you do that though? Shittier handling, shittier riding position. Just buy a SS.
Bentley Walker
Save the originals and don't do any irreversible mods :)
Jason Green
I don't see how the handling would change. If anything, I've always heard that it's easier to handle in the corners. But more than anything, I like supersport positioning, but don't have a supersport.
Isaiah Watson
M8 the GS500 is the ultimate meme. The DR-Z400SM is sure a meme but it just can't compete with the GS500.
Dominic Bennett
>hammer down on what looks like a 1911
at least try and look like you want to do it
Henry Morgan
I made a hole like 7cm in diameter with my hip, and here it is after fixing
Isaac Ortiz
Like this? I should have some neat GoPro footage of that eventually.
Tyler Edwards
the good ol' Cornelius effect
Elijah Taylor
Why don't you get a bike that was designed for that riding position then? The handlebars aren't the only factor you know, you'd also want rearset footpegs, adjust the shift lever and brake lever... I mean you can do whatever you want but I don't think it'd be worth the hassle.
Samuel Jackson
are you an alium?
Benjamin Flores
I will do, eventuallyâ„¢. I'm just being picky about my next bike.
Aiden Wright
I fucking love those old style luggage racks like the one in the back
It's a shame they don't make them for literally every bike.
Oliver Gomez
why would you do such a thing? It's going to end up being super awkward having a lower body meant for upright seating then an upper body folded over for clipons
Julian Nelson
Lets see some long weekend rides.
Jonathan Barnes
nice, how did you do it? just pasted it?
Cameron Rodriguez

Nolan Barnes

Lucas Hall
Gave it to a smith in the family because I didn't have the tools for it. Waited about a year before actually having it fixed so it's not a matter of doing it quickly
Kayden Bailey
hmm sadly don't have a smith at hand...
Daniel Brown
If that circle on the previous pic represents where the dent happened you may be fucked for obvious reasons. Still, check this cunt out
Noah Garcia
lebt wr anton noch?
Levi Jenkins
At least then I will have, friends like Shia.
Lincoln Torres

Ich weiss nicht. Er hat kurwa ostatnie posty w April
Wyatt Carter

aber ich war seit januar auch nicht mehr hier
Julian Bailey
>good eye It`s a FEG Hi-Power, single action.
Jose Cook
well shite. at least its not as bad as that one
Jaxon Morgan
Now the real mystery is, am I a moron, or am I a supreme troll who did that intentionally? mwhwuahhahaa (hint: I'm a moron)
Isaiah Brown
>buy shitbike without test riding >lol poorly maintained >lack the tools, time, and willingess to spend hundreds on the required new parts
>buy another shitbike, with test riding >overlook flaws because it's cool despite them >dissatisfied a month later, hate bike when not riding it, like bike when riding it
Third times the charm, right?
Lincoln Phillips
At least you're still alive user. Unlike a certain wr...
Samuel Jones
>no Suzuki GSX-R1000R at Superbike WC >no Norton V4 RR at Superbike WC >no Bimota BB3 at Superbike WC What a shame. I mean, seven brands as of now is a nice sight, but the more, the merrier.
Thomas Wright
convince me not to buy a honda hurrnet 600
Tyler Gray
Two words: Hornet 900
Justin Young
>ugly ass light Gee, I don`t know.
David Lewis
I found this. What a bloody retard
Evan Clark
yeah, it's not as good looking as the FZ6N, but still a lot better than the GSR600 actually a pretty good option, but they're quite a bit more expensive for worse state, and I'd really appreciate EFI
Noah Richardson
>wr anton
Oliver Gonzalez
Commuter/weekend tourer here. Is the FJR13 the perfect bike?
>145 hp >shaft drive >simple to fix >all weather comfy >center stand >fuel gauge
It's like my bandit just a bit more premium
Jaxson Adams
>not a BMW noided
Grayson Gomez
What's the lightest bike with shaft drive anyway? Usually you only find it on cruisers and tourers, but I don't like the whirring sound of chains.
Brody Rivera
You're supposed to lube it up once in a while retard
Ryder Wood
Yeah it's a really good bike. I rode one last weekend and they're really comfy
Isaiah Flores
There's still an inherent whirring sound to it that shaft drives completely lack.
Chase Russell
>tfw you've become the DRZ meme
I can't do it lads, this is coming from riding a husqvarna te511. The difference is like night and day.
Carter James
Is it good or bad?
Lucas Jenkins
What's the got to do with his chain though?
Luis Morales
get a F800GT
Justin James
The DRZ is 1000 times more reliable then the husqy but riding the 511 is a completely different animal. 4'th gear wheelies without the clutch and it's currently set up for supermoto, so mad hektik on the street.
Daniel Nguyen
probably a guzzi v7 that doesn't count tho because the rest of the bike will fall to bits before a jap chain would wear out
what's the power delivery like? it's mainly low end yeah?
Austin Diaz
>tfw bank still hasn't gotten back to me so the guy sold the tr650 to someone else even though I would have paid his full asking price Apparently $400 is not worth a week of waiting for him Fuck
Austin Rivera
I failed my mod 1 yesterday, booking for a retest is so fucking hard at this time of year and it is hard for me to find a day off to do it.
Just want to fucking kill myself, if I didn't fuck up I'd be on track for a proper bike instead of a 125 by next month, but I may need to wait till July to try again.
Joseph Long
Bitches don't know bout my Pro Arm.
Chase Richardson
>giving your money to the moneykeeping jew
David Adams
Does a stiffer modern frame really matter that much?
Grayson Wilson
jo
Anthony Long
Yeah, it's perfect, get one.
Plenty of torque starting at 2000rpm, at 4000rpm it's an animal.
Also, 100km/h in first is kind of fun.
Aiden Green
Best commuter bike? I need something good on gas, but can handle highways too. Storage and wind protection would be great. So far I'm looking at smaller touring bikes but they're all so bulky still..
Cooper Perry
how good on gas is good on gas? SV650S is the true answer
Caleb Anderson
See above post, it's completely fine in traffic, great on the highway, and decently economical. Otherwise get an nc700/750 and call it a day if you don't care too much about performance.
John Ortiz
Thumpers, I'd take a KLR650. V-Twin, I'd take a V-Strom 650. P-Twin, I'd take a NC750. 4cyl, I'd take GSX-R750.
Jeremiah Wilson
Hey guys I want to put a new exhaust and a power commander on my bike. Is it as simple as plug in and play or do I need to get other stuff also?
Aaron Phillips
>single sided swingarm hnng
Bentley Diaz
I was hoping for 60mpg ish. Does the sv650 get that? Doesn't look like there's much for storage. Am I setting the bar too high? The nc looks like a good contender if it's good on fuel.
Oliver Sullivan
>The nc looks like a good contender it's also boring as shit, but the S version looks decent (at most though)
Juan Brown
>Not including glorious flat 6 goldwing All other commuter bikes bow down to the goldwing
Imperial or US?
Captcha related
Jonathan Baker
it's not a commuter if you literally can't even filter past two other motorcycles
Jonathan Rivera
the NC750 will get 60 MPGUS easy. It's a bit pigfat though.
Josiah Clark
Nothing but the NC will get that.
Isaac Jackson
With an integrated drive shaft!
Jordan Foster
Talking US mpg here. The nc700 looks like it will do that, with great storage. I don't mind it being boring, I have a cbr600rr for the weekends. I just needed something to kill the dead miles from work and home And the occasional long trip.
Luis Wright
hey /dbt/
Any good youtubers to watch?
Nicholas Carter
44teth is literally the best motorcycling youtube channel
Justin Watson
What do you guys think of the GSX-R750? I'm looking at one in the area because the insurance for the bike I want (GSX-S1000) is ridiculously expensive because it's a new bike.
Wyatt Allen
Just get a bike already Zach jeez
Jackson Murphy
Good bikes, but why buy new? Especially if you're worried about insurance prices. Just pick up a used liter. Problem solved
Luke Morales
>called CL guy about buying his bike >still available, meet me at noon >only 20 minutes away >get there a few minutes before noon >someone else showed up before me to test ride it >they dropped it. Didn't buy after arguing with the guy. >I'm not buying it with the damage done to it Shit it made my day worse but that seller got the bad end. >always cash in hand for test rides.
Kevin Myers
Not Zach!
No good liter bikes in the area unfortunately, and the 750 I am interested in is an 06. I will keep my eyes peeled for a good liter bike, but this will be my first supersport, coming from a 01 SV650
