Yeah, I said I watched the videos m8, did you even read my post? It's fairly obvious that it's a german cartoon about a biker named Werner. I just don't speak german so aside from the occasional loan word or obvious one, it's just babble to me. He's going to the TUV to get his new indicator approved and it's some silly shit that fires sausages out and has canisters for sauce and other crap. I get the situation, but miss out on everything else.

Yeah it's a lot smoother and more flowing than Nasho. My tyres are nearly bald so I was slipping out a lot of the time which was a bit of a pain in the neck, but I'll definitely be doing it again with road tyres. It's just a bit of a trek to get up there so I don't know when that'll actually be.

They're both shitty, lackluster bikes.
Katana 750 is too pigfat and slow to be a sportsbike, too hunched over to be a sports tourer, and is just generally ugly.
KLR650 is the ultimate compromise bike; it's not good off road, not good on road, not fast, doesn't handle great, it does everything at a 4/10 level.

Sorry to break it to you man, but the gym won't make you skinny if you don't fix eating habits, it can only help you lift and be strong if you go often enough. It sucks but life starts in the kitchen

I beg to differ. I ate anything I wanted in the military and weight stayed off. When I fractured my ankle, however, I didn't adjust my eating and I gained a shit ton of weight during profile. Eating right helps, but as long as your output is more than your input, you'll lose weight.
>>
>>14880697
Oh well yeah no shit, I figured that was obligatory, but as you said you were a fat ass, I figured you weren't doing cardio, and definitely not as much as the military requires. I was giving a blanket statement for heavyset people

Eating fuakload of stuff works if you have a very active lifestyle, like being in the military for example,
but for people working a normal job it's hard to consume that much, so dieting is the only option.

>>
>>14880717
Trust me I know man, when I got in my bike accident I was at the end of a cut and I had a six pack and I was primed and ready to go, but I couldn't walk properly for a month and then I let that get to my head and skipped the gym for 3 and I put on 10 pounds of straight fat.

And now I'm struggling to get the last 5 off because of motivation, I still go to the gym every day but lack of diet literally makes it useless besides be being able to do more pull ups. Diet is all and diet sucks

If you wake up and do some pt before work, and again after you do work, you can get enough exercise. At least an hour a day will keep you fit. Or enough to work off a meal is good too.
>>
>>14880723
Hard to tell people without names
>>
>>14880735
acutally if you want literally just enough to lose and/or maintain weight, 20 minutes of cardio per day is all you need. now, granted, these 20 minutes, need to be where your heart rate is elevated (full exercise status homie) but doctors have been advising this for years since everyone here in the US is fat. lol.

I don't blame some people, after my profile was done, took like 6 months and 2 months of rehabilitation, my first 2 mile run was fucking devastating. I was used to doing 6mile fast runs twice a week and a 2 mile pt test every Friday. You lose that shit so quick when you stop.

word my man. you see, i used to smoke copious amounts of cannabis daily for years. a long with every other drug under the sun i had some stints with. always was fighting my weight/appearance cuz i was either WAY too skinny or WAY too big.

if you think about it tho, having a populous largely obese is actually a good sign for us 'murricans. An obese population is a sign of a good country (bountiful food; shelter; etc)

im back at my "normal" weight/muscle mass.
>>
>>14880785
so do it in the grass? You don't need a gym to get muscle if you really can't find a gym. Find something heavy and manhandle it. Logs, ammo cans, boxes, haystacks, whatever. Just move that shit across the yard, and down the street, etc.

Doing my license training I caught myself having several bicycling reflexes.

IMHO worst of them is touching front brake at low speeds or while cornering. If i plan on getting a motorcycle, should i swap my bicycle levers so that front brake is Right? Or i will learn new set of reflexes for motorcycle once start to ride regularly?

Mind you I have something like 8 years of daily cycling reflexes that would have to be re-learned.
>>
Good Morning everyone!!
>>
>>14881151
Braking on a bicycle is nothing like braking on a motorcycle. You should instinctively learn to drop speed before going into a corner, making braking completely unnecessary in non-emergency situations.
>>
>>14881151
>Or i will learn new set of reflexes for motorcycle once start to ride regularly?

This, you'll have to think gears and clutch plus brakes for a while.
>>
>>14881163
The emergency situations is what i'm most worried for. When all is nice and smooth, you act logically.

When shit hit's the fan i'll probably hamfist the clutch, lightly stroke the front brake and wonder why i'm not slowing down.

>In the chance that you go around the corner and a pot hole appears,
first you'd try to safely angle around if you can and going a low enough speeed, or if you can safely (meaning no cars and low enough speed), straighten the bike, brake, lean back into curve.

>gravel
a lot of luck, try to control bike calmly, do not apply brake and make sure you're wearing gear.

>Another car comes into your lane
well not much you can do but hope you don't die so you can collect a bountiful insurance claim.

>Animals
same thing as above, hope you don't die and you have coverage for collisions with animals.

The only real emergency in your control is speeding around a corner fast enough that your bike lowsides, that's preventable with cornering practice and not hooning. Whatever you do, just don't hamfist your front brake. I use two fingers for front brake at all times. Clutch is not an issue here, it can help to engine brake, but improper engine braking in a curve can make the bike jumpy and make you skid. so if you do pull in the clutch on instinct, just control your braking and don't lock anything.
>>
>>14881173
lol no it won't happen, your brain will learn quite quickly how to slow down ASAP it's what evolution wired it up to do, you'll hamfist the front like a boss

Does anyone here have any uncommon restrictions written in their license?

I have MS, it's under control, but my GP is being a bitch about it (PMS or revenge for telling her an opinion, you decide) and insists on adding a "code 500, regular doctor visits" to my license. I talked with another doctor and a lawyer, I was told my best bet was to switch GP's after a while and have it eventually removed.

Does anyone on /dbt/ have anything similar? Do cops hassle you about it? Am I worrying too much?

Hey guys, I'm working on a 1991 Honda VFR750F I picked up last year. It was crashed by the previous owner, but the frame is straight. Only the rear sub frame needs replacing.

I'm turning it into a street-fighter/naked bike because there isnt any return on restoring it. The more I dig into this bike, the more it reminds me of Ducatis and vice versa.

What are you working on/building up, /dbt/?
