Ok nobike
Ive done super rough shit on dual sport tires.
Its not a big seal with some skill.
Remember its 80% rider, 20% bike

I do and it's better than that feminine benis she calls a bike

>tfw no 1900 truck to haul baikus

>1900
dunno how that got there

Rangers are dogshit
B2200 or S10 a better

reposting my blog because ded thread

>tfw you put an expensive new exhaust on your UJM that was supposed to be good but now it just sounds like a straight piped gsxr 1000

I don't like this concept

B2600i

>trying to make a ujm sound good
Your first mistake

>aftermarket pipes
You brought this upon yourself

Full system or just can?
Just removing the servo on mine made a big difference

:^)

>B2200
lol, literally the same thing as the shitty disposable 4cyl ranger
>S10
a 4.3L with less power and less torque than Ford's 4.0L

First gen Ranger a best, might get a V8 Dakota tho

Yep looks like COMPLETE ASS just like the bike it's trying to emulate.

I need to see a video review of it before I make any judgments. I really do like the way it looks, but i wonder if that extension on the visor gets in the way.

Ayyo

How is that not an improvement?

Be thankful your bike sounds good at all.

Some of us are not that fortunate.

B22 is objectively better.

Enjoy brake and water pump failure

Sorry but the future of the planet is more important than trying to gain a little more power to weight ratio.

Also I used to ride a 2t, they suck so much if you're doing anything beyond racing or a 50cc scoot.

>icon helmet?

its re-branded korean shit. It's your money do what you want with it

Wouldn't surprise me.
Icon has always made garbage gear imo

nice

>Enjoy brake and water pump failure
I won't give a single fuck because I'll have finally owned a V8

im gay as fuck!

I don't care what other anons say, I'm jelly of your garage excluding the bimmer

you let your mom sit on your bike?

delet this

My Icon Overlord gauntlets were to comfiest gloves I've owned.

Except the only way you'll be able to stop is if the engine seizes from overheating.

of all things to skimp on why a fucking helmet???

a decent helmet is around 150 to 200. why chance it?

JUST LET ME ENJOY MY BOXY 80'S PICKUPS REEEEEEEEEE

LS swap a Mazda B2200 then.

>of all things to skimp on why a fucking helmet???


ikr

Thoughts?

>search CL for B2200's here in CA
>every ad is in spanish
B2200 confirmed for Cholo version of Ranger

Aint nothing wrong with that bimmer

Did you unplug the other headlight so that it wouldn't show through the cover?

What are some essential small displacement bikes that would be good for a beginner?

I was wondering if you did it in post or not

waaaaaAAAABIMBIMBITTYBIMBIMWAAAHBIMBIMBINWAAAHBIMBIMBIMMITYBINWIMBWAAAAAHHBIMBIMBIMBIMWAAAH

Anything Japanese under 500cc that's not two stroke.

Ninja 300 etc it doesn't matter.

Ninja 300. Cbr300r. Comfy and forgiving and cheap but highway capable

7/10, ugly front end

>$7600 in upgrades
>Honda Grom
Good god.

Better off with the 500s imo.
300s are pretty poor at highway speeds

>ugly front end
that's literally the most aesthetic section

You probably thing 911's are aesthetic too you fucking idiot

So after the crash my front wheel was way off, my handle bars were diagnal on the ride home. I pulled over at a gas station and bent it back into place by hand, something I feel like I shouldn't be able to do. Blue mystery liquid seeping from right side, looks like blue jello.

Part 2. It doesn't seem like brake fluid.

The ninja 300 does over 110mph
At 70-75 it'll do just fine.
And the cbr is a very smooth thumper

If you're super heavy maybe it'll be a different experience

just bought a 2011 CBR250R with 1553 miles on it for $2200 as my first bike, everything looks and sounds gud
all I have right now is this shitty picture but I am excite

delet your bike

>all that time, money and effort sunk into it
>still makes less power and is way less reliable than a CBR300 engine swap

Unless you're trying to do 90+mph they're fine.

Who else loves the UPS guy here?

damn bro, harsh
take your non-ranger-owning-ass and go fuck yourself

Mate of mine has one of those.

Suspension feels too soft just sitting on it imo.

Haven't ridden it yet though.

Absolute max speed is not really indicative of much. They're very busy and vibey at the upper end

Icon helmets are decent and around that price or more. They're not super cheap but not super nice, pretty average.

Probably just oil/grease from your bearings

>your non-ranger-owning-ass
;_;
gunna masturbate with these tears in a minute

The guys at SSB don't seem to hate the Icon stuff. Is that an HJC lid?

What speeds are you riding at where modern 300s aren't comfy on the highway?

Fork oil? Looks kinda like you can see it leaking down the inner side of the fork

60 mph

Enjoy and ride safe.

Be sure to post blood type in you gear

If you think they're vibey at 60 in 6th, get a Lexus

front end got misalligned. It is only held in place by friction. If you want to set it right loosen everything in the front except the top triple clamps and bounce on the bike several times then tighten it back up

fork oil

300's and 250's were literally built with tight enough tolerances to eat 10k -11k rpm's all day long at 85+ mph.
I understand that it can get uncomfortable for some, but mechanically they'll be just fine.

Yeah I'm guessing that's what it is. Shoot. I might need a mechanic to look at it this time.

tried. it doesn't work

I'll try that in the morning.

>don't seem to hate the Icon stuff

because they sell that shit. do you think theyre going to talk shit about a product they sell? if you ask them for their personal opinions i 1000% positive they'll tell you icon gear is shit

Do I need new brake pads dbt?

no

no

Looks normal to me

And does my fork oil look ok??

yes

It's not that bad, I only really feel it in my footpegs.

You could gear it a bit taller too desu, if I've still got this by the time I need new sprockets I'll go up a tooth on the front sprocket desu.

Yup

My rear shock should be fine too..r-right?

yeah dude your bike is fine stop asking

Just take her out back and put her down.

What a relief

do a burnout wheelie
