Don't worry, help is on the way!

>actually giving a fuck
People are gonna do what they do.
Live and let live.
Or die, which may be the better option anyway.

No

>nobody notices me wearing a full track suit
gearfags actually believe this

>rode to lunch
>low 50's
was nice.
t. colorado

who the fuck cares

>oh he has a motorcycle suit on, he must be a motorcyclist

jesus christ, fucking autist.

why are you on the wrong side

I mean why would they care
What does it matter to them what I'm wearing

Normies don't know that wearing a full suit is excessive, they just think you're cool as fuck.

It's so fucking nice out right.
I'm just amazed.
I didn't even have to wear my jacket.

>strangers care about me and what i wear.

Because FREEDOM®.

>can't ride twisties
>thinks he will be ok at the track
Enjoy your trip into a wall at 200kmh because you are too stupid to drop it in the sand trap

why is it that girl riders and harley guys never wave back?

Come back and touch penis senpai

But they do.
At least for me.
Maybe you're just a horrible person.

i cant see too well, are those stock bars or did you put on clip ons and bar end mirrors?

girls wave back to me but i have a nice bike. i feel like they are superficial enough that not having a people with nice bikes would be something they do.

harley riders wave to other harley riders, its that cult following.

look like low rise motocross bars to me

Low bars and bar end mirrors. I do plan on getting some woodcraft clip on a.

The only folks that I see consistently wave are hoons and old dudes in full Aerostitch on Gold Wings.

What phone mount should I get for by CB400?
I have a OnePlus 3 if it matters.

Who would buy shit like this?

Idk i always threw mine under the seat.
bike time is fuck everyone else time.

i swear by the x-grip ram mount.

they look good on that bike, any reason you're opting for woodcrafts in the future?

Exactly.
Mines in my pocket tho cause music

>two girls in the city walk up to me on my bike
>one is decent, one is...whatever
>ask me for directions
>tell them
>"nice kawasaki hehe xddd"
>"but yamaha is better hehe"
that's how a 7/10 turns out to be a 0/10

literally anyone that has a harley sticker on a vehicle that isn't a harley. for some reason this shit only makes a profit for harley, other bike companies try to do it but it never works. actually ducati might make money off their clothes
>was looking to buy a panigale a few years back.
>dad got me a bunch of ducati clothes for christmas
>bought a KTM instead.

They’re three piece and I don’t have to take off my yoke to install them.

brah if you had a decent comeback you would have melted her panties.

>finally get on my bike
>put music on
>start riding
>forgot to mute whatsapp
>friends and siblings in group chats start texting
life is pain

...

They’re three piece and fairly easy to install. I wouldn’t have to mess with the front end at all.

should have bought a beamer m8

That's cause the Japs stopped caring about being cool

No clue why my posts got all fucky

cute pupper, here is my pupper on the day i got my 1st bike.

I had and we were talking some more but making wimins wet wasn't the point of my story

HA!
I know that feel tho.
Luckily my nco couldn't add me to the crew chat on whatsapp, so we just use regular text, which doesn't interrupt my music.

Second on the RAM setup. Works very well with my Pixel in an OtterBox Defender. Can twist it to orient vertically (my usual) or horizontally (to clear big tank bag). Have handlebar mounts on both bikes so I just move the mid/head unit. Did just shy of 15,000 miles with it this year with zero issues. Pic related at the end of 998 mile ride from Minnesota to Tail of the Dragon.

not busting a big ole kawasaki nut on her yamaha loving face. you rack disaprin

have a sweet picture of an H2R bro

That front end is off a nuda/shiver

>only being fast in one very specific controlled circumstance that will never be useful

Jesus mate.
I don't want to be rude, but you should lighten your load.

Fucking kek

the bike

>WR a shit

i'm in San Diego and I pass by dozens almost hundreds of motorcyclists everyday. Do you wave to other car drivers when you're out driving your car? And then I feel guilty for not waving back. Just get the fuck outta here.

Both puppers are squids.

No, but it's a nice little gesture.
I don't feel bad for not waving, and I don't get upset when they don't.

i waved when i was a teen. i just nod my head these days unless its someone i know or a really cool motorcycle.

lifted jeep owners wave at each other here though.

Working on it. Get the 500 past 100mph should be less of a chore once I'm not effectively riding two-up all the time.

You mean lifted jeep owners basically everywhere.
Most are decent guys, but a good few a absolute douches

Wow you really are an asshole.

Good.
You can do it, trust me.
I did. I used to weigh over 315, now I'm hovering around 200.
Just keep it up, it's worth it.

Is this real life?

Honda is making one too, 2019 will be a good year.

fakenews, they said "defiantly" instead of "definitely". Either it's a complete shit editor or fake news

>500cc 2 stroke
>81 hp
>top speed 81mph

the gearing must be either extremely short or its fake.

Stop it, don't ruin my dreams of a modern 500cc smoker.

I only need it because I'm in the city and my sense of direction is fucked. I'm usually okay, but it's convenient not having to study a map for 5 minutes before I go somewhere.
Getting lost is fun, but not when I'm late to an appointment.
By the way, you looking for something to replace your CB?
I'll look into this

Most dirt bikes are geared extremely short.
unless it is a sumo or something set up for adventure riding they generally do top out at 80-90mph.

Wear full leathers
Touch penises

I had a 600 that had a top around 80.
Don't know if it being a 4stroke makes a difference tho.

looking at ducati 1098 and 848's atm, not sure if i want more power or better handling.

If I don't have full leathers, can we still touch penises?

>wanting to go over 80mph down dirt tracks on an 87hp bike that weighs less than 100kg
haha enjoy your hospital visit, probably won't be a long one before you find yourself in your very own refrigerated draw.

could probably gear one up to 15 front sprocket and 42 rear sprocket and they would do 120mph no worries though.

the ram mount only works if you use that rubber guard to help lock it in place. otherwise that shit will just fall out.

When it is attached it's pretty much never falling out.

i cant be the only one that wonders how a modern 2018 2 stroke engine would do with proper gearing

racing enduro bikes can get close to that kinda power so like vid but even more insane

>tfw some cuck living right next to seller snatched it from right under my nose
>tfw buyer 'payed' with credit
>tfw I'll get the bike if the buyer next door can't get the money in time

Here senpai

sys.Veeky Forums.org/derefer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnewyork.craigslist.org%2Fstn%2Fmcy%2Fd%2F1982-kawasaki-kz440-ltd%2F6412862606.html

Would this make a good first bike for somebody with no mechanical knowledge? Or am I just asking to get myself fucked in the butt? Does it seem like a good bike/deal otherwise? Or should I make a lower offer?

i know you generally won't be going that fast on an MX track, but that's a ridiculously low top speed for a 500. Even stock 250 MXers can do 80.

*notices bulge* OwO
Nope tracksuit commuter dicks only

I got mine from a rider who quit for $100 with a pair of boots

Is probably a 5 speed.
like i said most top out at 80-90mph anyway.
it's all about the acceleration getting there, they generally accelerate as hard as a litre peter because of it.

I have a work suit.
It's just not a one piece.
But I do ride in it.
Notice me senpai!

your wish is my command

its still fun to ride

nice bike for comparison. the 500 is was made in 2000. The shit bike is a 2004...

thats a really nice color for a ninja 500

>two-up with another beautiful SV650 rider
My heart Is a-flutter!

thank you /dbt/, i love you all

...

>match the road speed
what does that even mean
the road isn't moving, I am
do I stop to """match the road speed""? then we're both not moving
what a stupid thing to say

huh?
should be match traffic speed.
ya don't go slower than traffic on a bike it is asking to get killed.

Thanks. Im the 3rd owner.
First one owned it for 16 years. Put 25k on it. Followed the maintenance schedule at the dealership to the letter. 2nd guy just rode it for 1000 miles then it became mine. Just hit 30k on it.

btw the reason I said "impressive" is because a 4-stroke engine can't suddenly "run on 3 strokes." The piston moves 4 times to make a cycle. There's no way it can not do that and still produce work.

That's like the most common colour
