All i see is cars and some trash
:(
On the back of falling off for the third fucking time should I now replace my helmet? I've checked it after every crash and I can't feel any deformation anywhere and there's nothing but minro surface damage on the outside but everyone has told me to replace it after every crash
I ran the same helmet through multiple crashes and a few concussions. As well as cracking it and dropping it on concrete.
Did you damage the foam inside?
>tfw no 2D wife to marry and have kids with
Like I said I can't feel any deformation anywhere but I might be too retarded to feel it
Been riding a SV650 for about 5 years. What should I be shopping for now?
Savage
Poor Suzuki-chan
Nearly anything would be better
wr125
Remove your pads and visually inspect

Air cooled honda
Water cooled anything else
Onsa requires stockings
I have both and enjoy both
>SV650
>5 years

That must have been hell
why does /dbt/ hate it so much?
Been riding Ninja 250's for about 20 years. What should I be shopping for now?
Its worst in class and an absolute turd.
Plus shitzuki
Dunno, but I have no complaints
What do you like about it?
What do you hate about it?
What kind of riding do you want to do?
Stop hating Suzuki-chan.
A ninja 250
Dbt hates everything because memes
anyone on here ride a hypermotard?
>benchracers
I could beat your best in class 650 on a ninja 250 if the rider was you
Ninja 300 then the new Ninja 400, then a Zx6r, zx7r, zx9r, zx10r etc
Onsa A CUTE
>Imblying
Onsa is literally /dbt/'s mascot now.
Nah it's definitely Raimu-senpai
Nah.
She's too much like The Stig
>its this guy
heh, everytime
you fucked up.
You gotta go back and start on the z125, then re ride your ninja 250, then get a ninja 300, then a ninja 400, then a ninja 500, then a zx6r, then a zx7r, then a zx9r, then a zx10r, then a zx14r, then a zx14r again, then a Ninja H2. gotta learn to crawl before you walk man..
fuck I forgot you need the zx12r before the zx14r
You forgot the ZX11, the ZX12R and the Z1300.
Ridden one (The 796)
It's a fun bike to play on
First gear is very tall
The suspension soaks up bumps well, the forks soak up slamming down from whoolies.
I don't really know what it was meant for though, besides playing on the street and looking like a supermoto. It's not suited for actually being a supermoto. Way too heavy, wrong gearing, no skidplate, and nowhere to mount one...
But it is a hell of a lot of fun for someone who just wants to play, slide, and spend some quality time on one wheel.
I own a monster with the same engine. It's a little lighter and lower.
After all these he can start flying vintage WW2 Japanese planes
Forgot the 636 ZX6R after the 599 ZX6R
You forgot the Ninja 650
Finally, a place I can be proud of.
Can we consolidate all this into a list guys? I am worried about Ninja 250 user's safety
>
I like the upright position and the naked look (although it looks like I mistakenly used the S version for my picture)
Highway riding sucks. Definitely feel the lack of power and lack of windscreen.
I primarily use it for my 20 mile commute to work for ~8 months of the year. Occasional weekend rides through backroads.
I've done a couple roadtrips with the SV (St Louis-New Orleans; Chattanooga-Myrtle Beach), but that is pretty rare.
I think I've got it all

I advise he should continue with Ninja 250
Where does the Fireblade fall in line here?
shit waifu
How many fingers does she have in her ass in that pic?
I think she's a 1 finger grill
Thumb for sure
In the trash where it belongs.
Kawasaki is best
Agreed.
But user that's an R3?

If you want
>naked
>upright seating
>more power
>highway-worthy windshield
>commuting and the occasional road trip
you're best on a touring bike...
Suzuki Vstrom 1000 (only suggested this first because you're on a Suzuki now and the engine behaves very similarly to your SV)
Triumph Tiger 1050
Ducati Multistrada 1100/1200
Yamaha XT1200Z Super Ténéré
All can be had used for non-hideous prices.
I love highway riding on a naked with no windshield, but whatever, that's me...
I'd have mentioned the versys 1000 but it's straying a long way from the naked thing...
Yes a kawasaki R3
Onsa has always been best girl but sadly i like hondas more
how bout speed triple?
FZ1
Excellent power delivery.
Torque curve flat as a table.
Much faster than your SV
No windshield, not even a flyscreen, so you'll have to learn to love the highway wind
Upright with comfy bars, but the rearsets are higher than your SV, and you'll notice that
And without the windshield requirement?
>tfw no AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Some user posted one thankful that he has above 0 temps
Touring about 500 to 800 miles on the Ninja 250 on 75 to 85mph highways.
Yay or nay?
new bike dudes, 85 wide glide with go fast parts. 10:1 pistons (8.5:1 stock), aftermarket cam, aftermarket carb. time do de-dadbike it.
Monster 1100 or sv1000 for another vtwin
Speed triple for similar power delivery
If you like revs:
Yamaha FZ1 (completely naked or there's a half fairing option similar to the SV650 S)
Kawasaki Z1000
Honda CB1000r
There are other options, but there's a few for now.
Brah you either want a naked bike or you want wind protection, which is it?
Depends on how much of a masochist you are
>Depends on how much of a masochist you are
Please explain.
Hope you're not trying to get anywhere anytime soon
I thought they sell mini screens like pic related, I heard they work pretty well at redirecting the wind at least
What
Thanks
Thank you safety user
There's an AAAAAAA in the previous thread
why does it have to be so ugly
Not bad.
I hope those aftermarket parts were installed by a certified mechanic though. I've had trouble with bikes in the past with DIY installed engine components that crapped out on me because they either skipped a step or didn't follow everything according to spec.
yes, all engine work was done less that 5,000 miles ago by a reputable shop in the prev owners town. going from gs550 riding position to this with forward controls took a bit to get used to, but i love this thing.
Those flyscreens only block the wind if you're willing to hunch over against the fuel tank.
If you want to sit up, you won't even notice it's there.
I don't find it necessary to tuck behind the screen on the monster unless I'm cruising at 95+ for more than a few minutes.
Even tucked over, you'll just notice the push on your face is gone, the wind is still there.
I'm currently on the ZX-9R but I still have to sell the lower 9 bikes before I'm letting myself buy the 1000
man i am on fire. i guess these digits solidify my faith in my purchase

I wish Harley would stop using dry sumps for their engines.
Do you hate yourself? If so, go ahead.
how else would you get that calssic American feel?
Is it really that bad?
the goggles? 8)
how come? what are the advantages or disadvantages? my previous bike was a wet sump gs550
But BMW does it and it doesn't look that bad
It's buzzy, revs really high and struggles on the highway, has no passing power, not a very comfortable seating position, etc. Some people might say a Ninja 250 is capable of highway riding, and while that might technically be true, it's the last thing you'll want to do on that bike. That's 10x more true if you plan on riding long distances like 500-800 miles, for that purpose you should honestly get a 1000cc+ touring bike.
i wanna CUM inside Onsa
I don't wanna CUM because I already have
