sup guise -

need some advice cuz i heard something the other day and wanted to get some confirmation.

basically i got a big ol' promotion at work but the commute to my new location is 11 miles one way.

want to get a cheap reliable small bike for commuting (cruiser style, the street bike stance was never comfortable to me)

was thinking about just getting a good ol' honda rebel. they are cheap and all over craigslist and fuck.....its a honda. cant really get more reliable than that.

however my boys at work were tellin me how they think the rebel is a turd. that its kinda slow to get up to commuting speed, etc. that my 49cc 2 stroke yamaha zuma that i dick around on for fun would actually beat it in a race from the line.....lol?

are they just fuckin wit me? is the rebel really THAT slow?

Also for a guy 6ft1 is would the rebel for comfy enough - does the rebel have any known major running issues?

Thanks for the advice. Im either gonna get a rebel 250 or a ninja 250 but again, i dont like the street bike stance for commuting.
>>
>>14666767
You guys don't think i tried that? It's fucking welded to the tap. I'm not retarded, i don't want to ruin it

Try harder, those shit clamps are always trouble to get off. Replace it with a hose clamp.
>>

>>14666777
The Rebel tops out at like 70mph.

It's 125cc slow, with none of the benefits of a 125.

>street bike stance

Ninja 250's are practically upright.
>>
>>14666781

Try harder or cut it and replace it with a new piece of hose.

im 24, i was studying for a while, then driving a tesla cab to get some money, now im in training again. should be done in 1.5 years
>>
>>14666793
This is pretty accurate

Honda CBR250s and Kawasaki Ninja 250s are just as easy and cheap and have upright riding positions, and you won't be slow as fuck but you'll still get good mpgs and have way more fun than on a rebel
>>
>>14666804
Just as easy to find I mean
>>
aight guys hey! thanks for the responses and now being dicks about it. im curious about what you're saying about having the speed of a 125 but not the benefits?

do you just mean cheaper to run/own, or does it have a better powerband? im needing a 4 stroke cuz 2 strokes out here get EATEN up. i live in AZ where it gets 115 outside for 3 months straight and that time is coming up.
>>
>>14666813
It's nowhere near as light as most 125's, so it doesn't handle anywhere near as good or is anywhere near as flickable.

Plus 125's get retarded good fuel economy.
>>
*not being dicks, kek
>>
What does a 125 comfortably cruise at? 45-50 is all i need really senpai.

I ride a shadow 125 ocassionally. That thing cruises at 60, cab reach 75 on flat.

It's not as comfortable as you'd think though.

For commuting get like a Ybr or a Honda cg you won't go wrong.
>>
>>14666825
45-50 comfortably

55 is pushing it

60-65 on a long straight or down hill but you're probably revving the shit out of the engine at this point

You're not on /a/, dummy. Most people on /dbt/ aren't into anime I think.

Anyway, if your commute includes going on the highway you might want something with around 250 cc at least so you don't hold up traffic trying to merge. 250s still get really good mileage.

Just make sure it's a good one. You don't want your engine detonating between your legs when it's spinning at 16000rpm.

I had one and it was good. Bit hard to find some parts and tyres are pricey but it's very comfortable and much faster than any of the modern 250's. Shouldn't depreciate at all either. I'd consider the cb400 revo too.

tyres arent perfect, rims arent perfect. Usually when you get new tyres you check if the weight is distributed evenly, if not u slap some weights on so the tyre is balanced

Attach some bits of scrap metal to a string and tie it to the back of your bike so they drag on the ground when you ride. Same effect and will also deter tailgating.

They sound pretty awesome to me. There's also the added bonus of attention whores no longer wanting to ride. The entire culture will be full of people who truly enjoy it. I hope that it's similar to early Japanese sportbike culture, minus the attention from police.

While it sure has enough power to overtake all the 600cc and 750cc bikes I thought I was standing while trying to catch a K1300S on the track. That was a very "big" guy who had that bike in full race trim.
