your downshifts sound really odd/bad but I've never ridden a bike with a slipper clutch so I have no idea if that's all gravy or not, they visibly upset the bike though which makes me think you could smooth them out with a little rev matching. Your shifts up are also weird, you use the clutch but also don't really let off the throttle a few times which is just a bit weird and visibly unsettles the bike again, if I'm near full throttle like that I tend to clutchless and whip the throttle rather severely.
Linewise, eh, not much to complain about. I tend to prefer sticking into one set of lines and not crossing on double lanes(like webm related) just because I think it's rather pointless to deliberately hit up a twisty road then try and straighten it out as much as possible.
Your braking is kind of weird I guess, theoretically on the road you want to enter as wide as possible and you seem to brake in the middle of the lane, and push out to the edge as the road tightens which kind of puts you in an odd place to begin the corner and essentially makes it impossible to apex ( see: 1:15) starting as wide as possible then finishing tight instead of trying to apex it race style provides better vision and a safety net if you begin running wide too but I'm not gonna criticize on that, I don't exactly have the best lines.
I could see more of what's going on with a helmet mounted cam, hard to see what's going on with your body position and brakes and what not from this one.

Bikes have terrible aero, they look slick but aero wise they're equivalent to brick walls.
I mean think about the radiator on a bike, it's just a big vertical wall right at the front of the vehicle.
the average car has a drag co-efficient of like 0.3, bikes are usually around 0.6, even super aerodynamic bikes like the hayabusa are only 0.561
>>15291932
Are all bikes like so, though?
Why does my diesel shittruck have an higher top speed than my baiku?
Can this be solved by changing sprockets or is there any way to play with your transmission like they do in MotoGP?

I have health insurance. Which is another problem with countries that have "free" health care. Giving up your independence means somebody else mandates all your choices for you.

>I mean think about the radiator on a bike, it's just a big vertical wall right at the front of the vehicle.
You mean like the radiator on a car?
Drag coefficient doesn't directly mean shit, it's just a measure of efficiency independent of frontal area (of which bikes have fuck all) A 150hp bike goes a hell of a lot faster than a 150hp car. But in general sure bikes are "worse" when it comes to pounds of drag compared to pounds of weight which is why they can accelerate faster than a car with the same top speed.

How come it is so much cheaper than the BMW, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda and especially the KTM ???
>>15292115
They are a good tire. However, they don't wear/last as long. They are sticky soft so that's to be expected. They are OEM on the BMW K1600GT and GTL. Michelin equivalent is better in the rain, but not the dry. The Michelin also wears longer.

Yeah i dunno, to me it is the headlights... Got that bug-look. It is a nice bug-look on the R1, but i am not in the market for the R1 (and where i live it is quite a bit more expensive).
The bugs have been worked out of the S1000RR, S1000XR, and S1000R.
>>15292121
1. they used an engine design they've had since 2005 (and throttle bodies from 2007), the swingarm and brakes are ripped straight from the current normal GSX-R, there is no slipper clutch.
2. Electronic doohickies are there but at a minimum, you can buy it without ABS for less money, it has traction control but it's basic in comparison to the european competition.
e.g the 1290 has a 6 axis IMU, you can pull the brake lever as hard as you can while leaned over on a corner and it's cornering sensitive ABS will save you etc.
3. The little stuff.
>no LED headlights
>rubber, not braided steel brake lines.
>nissin master cylinder not brembo
>no quickshifter
but that stuff is rather minor to me, if I was getting a supernaked it's what I'd do. Then I'd spent a few bucks
All they did was just build a really nice, mechanically sorted bike without many bells and whistles. Gave you everything you need and nothing you don't.

I do like simple machines without to much tech to overcomplicate shit..
And that is what made 40% of BMW bikes fail atleast once over a 4 year period? Yeah i read that article too, and i wish i could stop thinking so much about it...
I just do not want to end up on a mountain pass in switzerland with my engine fucked over because i did 650 km that day.. (i dont abuse bikes, so i had of course never happened before, but that article man! that strawman!)
>>15292127
Thanks. I knew BMW gave Metzelers as OEM on some bikes, but my mechanic told me Michelin was better suited to the wetter climate here. And I guess he was right, I'm very, very happy with my PR4's, but still curious to try Metzeler for a summer or track tire.

>>15292176
BMW went frickin' crazy with tech before they actually mastered any of it. The K1200LT is the epitome of this. What a fucking debacle! They sourced parts from companies with poor quality control too. I love my K1600, but would not have bought a pre-2015 model. But in fairness, the 2014s are safe now after a fuel map software update. Before that, they "pinged" and broke ring lands.

The answer is Tuono 1100.
But...
>1290 SDR
Expensive because it's outrageously good.
>S1000R
Own one. Not unreliable, but has had it's moments. Never been an issue because my dealer support is 10/10. Best bike I've owned to date. 20,000km in one year so far, worst thing that happened was a fork seal wiggling it's way loose; bike was collected, fixed and returned to me in 4 hours, free of charge.
>Z1000
The Z is still quick as any of them up to jail speeds. The engine pulls as hard as the S1000R, if not a tiny bit more, but when the Z has to change gears the BMW keeps going and going and going.
>MT10
Yeah it's ugly but so is the BMW. Bet it rides great though, keen to try one.

I have angel GT's, they're alright but I won't buy them again.
They need heat to stick (they do stick though, you've probably seen it anyway but pic related is me on angel GTs on my SV), don't seem to work over bumps as well, kind of feel a bit lazy on turn in.
I'll be going for S21R next, worse range but I mean the payoff for tyres that will give you 200% confidence at all times is worth it imo.

Meh, it's old news and not really dependable. Especially when BMW only sold slightly more than 4,000 bikes in North America in 2014 which also skews the ratio.

>>15292283
those sound very similar to me, I'm curious if you've just never heard a crossplane I4 if you don't think those revs at 20 seconds sound like one.
A vfr800 has a 180 degree V4, same firing intervals as a crossplane I4.
If you'd posted an RC30 or an RC213V-S or something with a 360 degree crank you'd have a point but that sounds pretty much the same to me dude.

It's honestly one of the better deals I could find. I don't mind the fork swap. I read through the /dbt/ buying guide and will do as good of an inspection as I can, but wanted to see if anyone here more experienced had some input.
>>15292308
It's a street fighter, 9 times out of 10 that's because the plastics were trashed. Front end was probably swapped because the forks got fucked up too. But like I said, looks well done and is cheap, so great first bike.
I only commute and am not interested in crotch rockets.

>the people who rave about them are kinda shit
I'll concede that. Don't even have the experience of any other comparably priced tyre to compare against.

i have pp3's ya spanner, what makes you think he is me?
>>15292315
Riding on PR4's now, had Diablo Rosso Corsas before.
The Pirelli took ages to warm up, was downright dangerous in the wet while the Michelin offers solid dry grip and I won't burn through 100 bucks of tire on a single highway road trip.
Sure, I'm not the greatest rider and if I lived right next to a set of awesome twisties and never used the bike for long trips I'd use another tire but as a general-use road tire it is fantastic.

No reason, but when I have every other time it has been correct even tho it is a stab in the dark.

>not wearing a helmet
>not realizing it both makes it safer and makes you look rad af
>>15292414
no helmet is badass, you should try it. But I bet you are cucked into having to wear one.
>>15292412
Normally it takes me posting a picture for you to actually get it right to be honest

>>15292388
honestly I can't tell any difference in wet weather potential between my GT's and the S20 Evo i had on the front before which is why I'm going to S21 as my next purchase (already have Q3's I purchased months ago)
They were honestly fantastic in the wet, I've done both wheelies and stoppies on wet ground on the S20's which is not fucking bad for a sporty tyre and I couldn't get the thing to spin up no matter how I wrenched the throttle in 1st on them in the wet (I mean I don't exactly have a powerhouse, only 70 hp but still) only if you leaned forward and popped the clutch could you get it spinning.

>he doesn't work outdoors
>>15292490
don't you sit in an airconditioned cab all day?
>>15292490
If holy men wanted us to work outdoors they wouldn't have invented gods.
>>15292495
depends what i am doing
>>15292490
lel that would require actual work
I sit behind a desk and come up with ideas other people are too stupid to provide to earn shekels

Good idea? Or too hard to source parts?
>>15292515
>hard to source parts?
same engine as an old cr250 or honda odyssey so nah go for it, its probably fucked though
>>15292507
You didn't know? Every religion was started by men who did not wish to toil in the fields or thresh grain. So they invented gods, claimed that only they could speak with the gods, and that the people should give them things (gold, cloth, grain, meat, etc.) and they would speak to god on their behalf. No more callouses and sore backs and sunburns.

Modern Kawasaki design is hideous.
Except for the H2R, which may be ugly but at least it's not as generic and derivative as the rest.
>>15292594
I could just imagine the price on shipping to shitposterland.
>>15292610
They look like bionicles
What ever happened to heavily customizing your bike without giving up performance? Did it stop in 2003? Is that when they invented ext-swing arms?
>>15292614
i was looking for bionicles to buy my nephew and they arent a thing anymore
>>15291529
IMHO better thank having a bike you cant ride.
>no bike, get one
>ride 20km home after registration
>out of gas, fill er up
>fuel starts dripping on ground
>new tank is 1100$, no one can repair old tank
Now i'm no bike and no money.
>>15292634
>tfw normies realise bikes are expensive
the reason cheap bikes are cheap is because they cost the difference between it and a good quality bike to get going again.
>>15292646
thats why you buy a gs500 when you are a poorfag
>>15292623
continued on everywhere that's not the USA
