This new chicane in motoGP is the slowest corner in a while, I think I saw 61 km/hr on the speedo around it.
That'd be the slowest corner since they got rid of estoril.

last wednesday I was at the Führerscheinstelle and had to pay 40€, now I can get my unrestricted licence in about five weeks
yesterday I installed my new throttle cables
it feels like new again, the old ones were really not good anymore. I can't wait to ride again
Are DRZ's a meme
>>15200722
yes
>>15200711
>>15200707
maybe. If I pass the test, what I hope (and think) I will do.
depends on when I can do the test.

Would /dbt/ ever consider an electric motorcycle or scooter? Have any of us experienced one?
I've seen a couple of electric scooters with vestibule pedals around Melbourne recently, I believe the ones that aren't capable of >25kph are legally classed as bicycles and can thus be ridden without a license.
Personally I don't understand why lithium battery scooters haven't taken more of the general scooter market since they are probably superior in a point A to point B sense.
Electric motorcycles are definitely interesting, obviously useless if you'd like to ride a decent distance away from home but they perform well and sound surprisingly decent.
>>15200722
Every bike someone doesn't like is a meme.
>>15200747
If I had to commute and had the money I'd get one of those electric sumo desu
>>15200722
most assuredly, the thing about the dr-z's is they are bi-memual
>get a DR-Z bro they're beasts bro wheelies bro they're indestructible m8 [emoji with hearts for eyes] [emoji with hearts for eyes] [emoji with hearts for eyes]
then on the other end of the spectrum is the contrarian memer (e.g CC81PT)
>fuck DR-Zs are just totally worthless, there's not a single upside to this bike, that's why they sell so many of them, because they're just pure shit with no positives.
The truth, as always, lies somewhere in the middle.
>>15200747
yes I would
>>15200755
They are shit, but they are cheap shit
>>15200747
Yes I would. I would commute on it and have a regular bike for the weekends and holidays
>>15200767
they are what they are, a cheap, pretty damn reliable (though not without flaws, stator etc.) trailbike to go...ride trails on.
>>15200771
For riding on fire trails shared with 4wds, sure
But not real trails
>>15200730
>get a busa m8
no
maybe I can save up during my bachelor thesis and buy a bike afterwards
>>15200776
sure, why not. It's not like it's an enduro bike or even purports itself to be.
I don't see what the problem is, it's just a bike to go bush bashing on, all g with me.
>>15200135
Just bought my first bike.
Oh god oh god, please, I need to be on wednesday when I will pass the second part (easy one tho) of my A2 and then i will be freeeee.
>>15200779
a Z1000 then
>>15200800
don't you have a provisional licence?
>>15200440
Fuck off nobike
>>15200804
No, here (Fr) the licence is in two part. The first (hardest one) is on closed roads with cones, you have to show that you can handle a bike properly. And if you pass this (trust that is hard as fuck), you will be call again to have a test drive on the road.
This part is somewhat easy if you are used to drive a car, because this test is to verify that you know the road's rules. If you fail this.
And after I have to wait 48h hours to get the verdict.

what I would like more though is a smaller, new boxer bike
like a modern r65 or r80, with 80hp and sub 180kg

>>15200923

Help me out /dbt/, I'm 18 and buying my first vehicle, it's all pretty good and I have some money saved up and I'm till just working and saving more at the moment.
I have a burning passion for motorcycles, and I want one while I'm going to school at least. I was just offered a car from a friend that's a great deal, $1200 and it needs some work but nothing major, A/C, timing belts and possible few "oil leaks".
But I don't really want it, at all, I understand a car is a more practical and safe idea, I've been driving for 3 years and seen just how easily some people miss cars, let alone motorcycles, etc but I don't need the "danger" lecture.
All I want to know is if you guys think it's doable, if you really would live on bike if you were just going to work and school, not transporting shit around. But rain or shine, working. Can I do it?
>>15200940
do it fgt
>>15200944
thank
>>15200945
no prob
>>15200876
Tis only a steering bearing replacement, all is fine.

Honda expects you to take your bike to a honda stealership for maintenance that they won't actually do because they expect you to be the type of person to trust honda
>>15200961
Lel the front support thing actually comes off this is what I get for being retarded
>>15200932

I don't like the f series

>>15200996
>it literally looks like a naked
Good spotting, never noticed that
>>15200991
yes, basically
and without the special snowflake front suspension, I don't like it. And it's very heavy
and the r850 are 20 years old already
>>15200996

They dropped the telelever system in the latest R1200R.
What I meant was a R850, but based on the latest R1200, so without telelever.
>>15200983
boxer engines are just not a good idea for sports bikes, why bother?
even I could probably get an HP2 over enough to scrape cylinder heads if I was on a track or maybe a good bit of road.
>>15201024
nice to know it was nice apart that last shower
will you be able to dry your stuff?
>>15201038
>boxer engines are just not a good idea for sports bikes, why bother?
Because not every bike is a sports bike. I like my boxer, but if I wanted to race I would get an i4 bike
>>15201049
oh my bad, I thought you were after something cornery carvey thanks to these words.
>high enough that you can actually lean
or is how high they are on the SP2 enough?
>>15201043
I have one of those cheap plug in boot dryers and the towel rail, trouser press will suffice for the rest.
>>15201034
ok yes, then I agree with you. R850 with a lighter frame and more weight savigns would be it.
>>15201038
I don't want extreme sport bike lean angles, where I talked about more lean angles I meant the old boxers, they have the cylinders quite low.
the one in your pic is quite low too iirc, the engine of the 1200r should be a bit higher
you can lean ok with that
>>15200940
also I live in florida and so, year round is a doable thing.
>>15201049
>I would get an i4 bike

>old looking
>muh offroad

>>15201059
I'm not R65 anon.
But I do ride a boxer, never scraped my engine in a corner, they've put the cylinders pretty high in the newer models.
>>15201070
It's the cheapest option, which would be the best for a second bike next to a BMW
>>15201075
>literally your bike in the bike you want
no
>old looking
I don't want one that tries to look old, i want a modern one
>muh offroad
ok yes, that's not bad. But it's not like it is good off road
>still BMW standart bike
and it has the standard 1200cc engine. And personally I still think it's too fat
ooh now this is a spicy image
>>15200951
>75€
that's cheap as fuck holy shit it'd be at least 120€ here.
>>15201024
Same here, glad I was innacar this morning.
I got your email yesterday and it reminded me to ask the camp in slovenia if you can drop something off while you're there, I totally forgot the first time.
I think I'll have an answer by monday.
>>15201109
it's like your bike only in modern
>>15201133
yes, but it would be better if it had the same engine size but with modern power for its size, and 20 kg lighter
and better suspension with a higher engine
>>15201124
>I got your email yesterday and it reminded me to ask the camp in slovenia if you can drop something off while you're there, I totally forgot the first time.

I see, it's for the best then.
So you're crossing Italy later on again to go back right?

You're gonna go back the same way you came from?

I haven't formalized my plans but I'm staying in Bled until the 10th then I'll either return through Italy entirely or take the Furka pass to Chamonix, depending on the weather. Another possibility is Grindelwald.
I stayed in Como last year and didn't really care for it but I'm happy to try elsewhere if it's not representative of Northern Italy as a whole.

is that it or did you just cruise to a local store nearby?

Aside from the central area wich is the old town it's a proper shithole,

Does anyone know if there is a storage compartment of some kind on a 2005 Ninja 250? I found a tiny little bay if I take off the seat but I want to use it as a place to keep my registration and insurance and don't want it to burn up or set on fire under there.
>>15201366
Thanks, any suggestions for a town with a decent selection of hotels that's in the mountains?
When looking at baby's first 'sport' bike, is ther any real difference between a Ninja 300 and a R3?
I've ridden both and I don't have the skills to say if one is better than the other, so should I just look to get the one that I can get the best deal on?
>>15201295
>>15201299

And it's a 2016 Kawasaki ER-6N
The 125 is a 2006 ('56 plate) Yamaha YBR 125
>>15201381
It really comes down to which you prefer, including ride, looks and price. There's no specific reason to go for one over the other. Have you tried the CBR300R?
>>15201384
ybr pls
>>15201387
Brother had a 2012 250R. Just for variety I was going to go with the Yamaha or Kawasaki.
Plus, the twins like to rev more than the single in the Honda.
>>15201372
The only first hand experience I had with hotels in that area is in Misurina,
the place is beautiful but the hotel I slpet in was a shithole, pic related.
If you manage to get a room in one of the hotels on the shores of the lake you'll probably be fine, I was there in deep high season and couldn't find a room.
The area around the camping was also filled with campers, that completely ruined the charm of the place.

I didn't know much about those bikes but that bhp is fuckn queef worthy wtf. If it doesn't break 100 just buy a fuckn scooter.
how much should a noob expect to spend in helmets jackets & boots?
post em plz
>>15201531
dat stand
>>15201557
who's the new retard anyway
>>15201560
$100-150 on helmet
$500 on jacket if you want full leather but <$400 if you're into mesh or whatever
$100 on gloves
I spent $400 on straight up track boots but this can vary by style.
Don't skimp on gear get good comfy stuff that you'll use. This all depends on what you're into style and luxury wise.
My shiz: $100 bell helmet, $500 dainese cage leather jacket, $400 dainese mesh jacket, $100 dainese blackjack gloves, $300 dainese tr course air out boots.
>>15201560
700
and you should also buy gloves and pants
Is it bad to ride a normally fully faired bike without fairings. Lowsided and Cant be fucked buying new ones
>>15201557

>No charger at work
>No guaranteed parking spot outside house
r8 pls. i think its pretty cool. but ill just go with the entry level bell helmet
>>15201642
it's shit
>>15201642
it is shit
>>15201560
The helmet needs to be new (or at least new-old-stock), other stuff can be new or flea-bay as budget allows.
>>15201642
I think it's cool
>>15201642
Shark is a good brand, but that's really an open-face helmet with paintball goggles. It has a look, but is not as protective as a helmet with a fixed chin bar. OTOH, it's no less protective than any other open-face helmet, either.
>>15201656
I think that's not the purpose of an helmet
>>15201642
>Paint it white and orange
>make your bike look like something out of starwars
>be luke
>>15201663
Unfortunately, uncool helmets don't get worn.
Is this sprocket knackered? First bike, didn't come with the owners manual, and the Haynes Manual for the CG125 is a bit shite.
>>15201255
is that a 10 pound weight on the wheel
