What am I doing wrong when attempting a wheelie? >go into second gear >hold down clutch >pull the throttle all the way back >let clutch spring out >wheel only goes a inch or three off the ground
Brandon Lopez
Wanted to go out for a rip today But it was like 58 degrees and freezing
Colton Nelson
Its about 50 and raining here. Considering taking the XR100 for a rip instead.
Noah Edwards
Posting the only mistake Yamaha ever made
Jaxon King
Compress the forks when you do that, try to time the fork's bounce back with the clutch drop.
Joseph Harris
>14-15°C >freezing
Ryan Hall
Could've told me that was a Suzuki and I'd've believed you.
Mason Hill
>125 that's not an R3
Jeremiah Taylor
Alright, will try
Aaron Scott
I think I'm going to buy this dude's bike that's 20 hours away. Shipping is only a few hundred bucks. Have any of you spergs had a bike shipped before?
Brody Diaz
What was wrong with them? I think I've only ever seen one. Never paid attention
Christopher Phillips
>not just driving 20 hours fuckboy
Henry Smith
>wasting days of my life when I could just pay some asshole a few hundred bucks.
David Anderson
you're still wasting your life
Adam Reyes
>driving to pick up your new baiku >wasting time
Alexander Morgan
Be careful, too much bounce will result in a loop.
If you loop post it here and become a meme.
W R O N G
Noah Garcia
It's a 77hp yamaha beginner bike that pretends to be a GSXR.
It's also what yamaha used as the replacement for their ugly godbike in the US market. It's called the XJ6 everywhere else, but the FZ6R (the R make it go fast!) in the US.
Joseph Myers
>W R O N G are you retarded? it's not an R3 where am I wrong you fucking cuckold? go back to fiddling kiddies you fucking paedo or paying child support for your nigger kid you retard
Juan Lee
As long as it was reliable, i dont see the problem. 77hp is plenty for a beginner. But the FZ6 is a better bike for sure.
Bentley Bailey
>77hp is plenty for a beginner
77hp borders on too much. People still highside GS500s. And it's a fully faired bike with dirtbike bars.
Joshua Nguyen
>a 600cc 4-banger that produces similar power to a Ninja-650R
what did they mean by this?
Hudson Gutierrez
The fz6r is too slow, 77hp is not enough. Just because your government tells you something doesn't make it true
William Green
Capable starter bike Commuter Kys
Carter Campbell
take some new photos for fuck sake sick of seeing the same 4 shots every fucking thread. I don't even need to (you) you, you know who you are.
Cameron Lewis
>77hp >600cc i4
the XJ6 was a mistake
Mason James
It's a really easy to ride. It was the bike I learned to ride on. Hard to stall, smooth power output.
Austin Hughes
What part of beginner bike/commuter do you idiots not understand? People dont need 180hp to get to work. Not everyone wants to street rossi
Jordan Adams
Why buy a boring bike when there are better options that you will enjoy more? Also the fz6r is a pile of plastic
Anthony Moore
Your bike is only as boring as you are. Ive seen some vids of people on track with fz6rs. Looked like they were having fun to me. Stop being a fool
Grayson Adams
It's a good thing you can tell the condition of the bike by a few grainy cell phone pics.
Lucas Hughes
If I wanted a beginner bike or some "what more do I need?" self-sabotaging cuckoldry I wouldn't be buying a fully faired inline four that is several times too large for its power output. I'd probably buy a part faired/completely naked parallel twin instead
100hp+ fully faired inline four = extremely inconvenient engine maintenance and bodywork to wory about caring for/not breaking, but worth it because its fast 77hp fully faired inline four = this bike is fucking bullshit and none of the sportbike guys think i'm cool
I've seen some vids of people on a track with groms
It doesn't mean there's a better tool for the job
The FZ6r/XJ6 is a shitbike. I don't know who its target market is except for europoors who want an I4 because they're autistic about engine configurations.
Zachary Reed
If it's sub 400lbs it's plenty.
Ayden Perry
If it served its purpose and was reliable, it was a good bike. You can say its shit just because you dont like it.
Andrew Perry
>I don't know who its target market is except for europoors who want an I4 because they're autistic about engine configurations.
Commuters.
Nolan Evans
>can Cant
Jayden Ross
It's 211kg/467lbs
Andrew Rivera
It didn't exist in a vacuum though. Other bikes served the same purpose better, and the bike it replaced in the US was just flat out better. It even got similar fuel efficiency results, despite having more horses, and was easier to take care of.
>be commuter >"i want to take off all this plastic every 3000 miles for an oil change"
Austin Russell
> worried more about stats on a piece of paper than having fun.
t. nobike/nodick ( size queen biker )
William Hill
>doing oil changes every 5k km
Easton Gomez
You can have more fun on a better bike.
If you want to throw stats to the wind and just have fun, the FZ6R is massively overpriced if you just want to have fun. Why not get a GS500 instead?
Brandon Nguyen
Fairings do more than look good Gs500 is a huge turd
William Baker
No they don't. And they don't even do that on the fz6r
Hudson Parker
Yes, farings bump up your top speed as you approach the triple digits by helping with drag.
If it's not some fat ass goldwing bodywork everything related to comfort is the responsibility of a tall windscreen.
Lincoln James
If you dont know the purpose of fairings, im done talking to your dumb ass Same to you.
Fucking nobikes have no clue
Jackson Martinez
Is it another "nobike thinks skinny sportbike side cowls keep the wind off your legs" episode?
Cameron Rivera
I bet I could have a shitload of fun on that thing, I truly like riding though.
I've traded bikes with friends many times for a while and I'm still smiling like a fool even on a wr250x and they are fucking slow.
Kevin Hall
>Nobike Don't start, euro No, your ybr125 is not a bike, it's a scooter. (Just like this aprilia)
Aiden Gomez
You could have fun on it riding, you could have fun on anything riding it, no fucking shit it's am otorcycle, but owning it would get old after about a week, and you'd start to wish you had a different bike. A better bike just opens you up to more ways to have fun and sometimes even fewer ways to experience unfun frustration.
Adrian Lopez
Why though? Because it doesn't break down when you hit a bump? Because it delivers its power in a predictable way? Because it's easy to ride, so you have more time to focus on the road?
Kevin Fisher
Some people have shitty view of life and cant be happy with what they have
Adrian Rogers
sportbikes dont break when you hit a bump
Christian Miller
Post your bike sperg I can almost guarantee you've never ridden anything with more than 70hp
Anthony Miller
Unless its a suzuki
Mason Diaz
Post anime
Benjamin Parker
Because it's a 450lb bike that makes you put up with faired bike problems and i4 maintenance while riding like a two cyllinder naked bike and somehow costing MORE than a lighter bike with similar power output (more torque, -2hp) that's even easier to ride than your pretend-sportbike pig.
Pic related.
Oh, and count the bolts you need to touch to do an oil change on this one
>1 (drain plug)
Some people aren't dumb enough to fuck themselves into only having garbage.
Jose Flores
There's more than one person that disagrees with you. What would posting his bike prove anyway? I never understood this demand
Lucas Hill
If its reliable and serves its purpose, you cant call it shit.
Andrew Scott
I started on a XJ6, so you're wrong.
The XJ6 is a naked FZ6R, which is the bike I've been talking about.
Mason Morales
It doesn't serve its purpose as well as other options so it is comparatively shit
Bentley Miller
If PART of my requirements for a bike was " reliable commuter " I could work with that bike no problem.
Fun is entirely subjective, for local fun 90% of the time I'll choose my 270lb 45hp bike over my 467lb 150hp bike.
Daniel Morgan
I disagree
Justin Ramirez
It proves that he has never ridden anything to compare to the fz6r so his argument is invalid
Aaron Ramirez
I disagreed with your mum when she said "pls no penis" fgt
Jackson Baker
Didn't want to shit up the board so posting here; Please post bike goggles.
Kevin Bailey
But he has an XJ6. So you're a rapist? Thats fucked up
Jack Bennett
>his fairings are still shiny
Cooper Russell
I've ridden 6 bikes, one of them was a XJ6. It was far from the worst, which is a 2017 GSA.
Connor Nelson
I wish they were tho
Justin Smith
>spec sheet bench racer.
This is my 450 and one of my buddies 500exc, despite him having at least 10hp and 30lbs less weight, every time we would trade bikes for a while he didn't want to give mine back.
Spec sheets aren't the end all be all of bike comparisons.
Camden Morales
So you haven't even ridden the bike in question yet you're arguing about it? The fz6r has cheap shit plastics and is just as slow as the xj, both making like 25 hp less than their predecessor, while having the same fuel economy and being more expensive. It's a margins bike,made only to make money without any thought given to the rider
Ian Diaz
yamahas are better made than KTMs
Carson Roberts
The XJ6 is a naked FZ6R. From the start did we talk about them. You just kept hammering on having some plastics.
Leo Sanchez
Why are these people arguing for the new euro4 bikes? Ffs get a hornet or fz6(non r) and quit bitching about these slow piles of Indian scrap
Learn some English you fucking pasta nigger, that comment doesn't even follow itself let alone respond the the post you quoted
Andrew Hall
t. materialist fuccboi
*wheelies into the sunset on a grom*
Jacob James
I've had a bike for a few weeks now and I really shouldn't still have my license.
Jonathan Cox
Why would I be a materialist if I only buy shit bikes? Check mate
Camden Ortiz
Can confirm, FZ-6 best starter.
I need to take more pictures. But to do that, I need to go places. I need to go on more rides.
James Nelson
Are u that r1 person
Kayden Morris
iktf
i do at least 90mph every day on my way to work and use bike lanes to pass people who don't want to go 10+ mph over the speed limit
Gavin Hill
congrats
my first speeding ticket ever was on my literpeter doing 85 in a 35
Aiden Gray
I found this on the end of my magnetic drain plug.
David Butler
It's fine
Andrew Stewart
>Bought CMR 30 for giggles >Had to get it home >Collapse stock entirely >Put it in my bag >Last couple of inches of the barrel stick out >Get weird looks all the way home
Worth it though.
Connor James
I mean is there any other way of riding? especially a sport bike. It took me about 1 week of motorcycle experience until I was lane splitting at 120mph
Brandon Reyes
Pls die scumbag
Easton Adams
>keltec anything Why?
Isaiah Sanders
Be careful posting funs online conlan
Andrew Hill
In this thread we post our boots/riding shoes and talk shit about each other's choices. Pic related street fags.
Thread ofcially.... *licking noises*.... hacked!
James White
>troy lee >100% >harbor freight straps Wew
Adrian Anderson
Because I could and it looked nifty.
That's why I post my bike. :D
Chase Morris
>being an Anime instead of a cute
Levi Price
Hes got a point... I've been playing around with the idea of getting a street bike... but I just don't see how you limit yourself to everyday commuting while 1000cc of pure sex is between your legs. Rather stick to the dirt... No limits.
Adrian Hill
Aaaayy... was rocking the wood plank ramps back then too.
Joseph Morgan
Most riders actually just putt around town and don't let loose until the coast is clear and the pavement's clean, hot, and twisty or the road is literally a racetrack
We're pretty uncommon in being suicidal autists with motorcycles
Evan Turner
i dont know many people with sportbikes who never do anything crazy
Thomas Rodriguez
>ask some girl what she drives >its some shit car idk I didn't give a shit >interrupt her and tell her I ride a 650cc Triumph street triple S >she didn't have sex with me
What gives dbt?
Caleb Jenkins
its legit hard to ride a sportbike without riding like an asshole
