Maybe if he had owned up to it and recognized it was target fixation. If you put CruzinMoto on a bike in an empty lot with a sign post in the middle of it he'd find a way to run into the sign post.

>>14985669
That's ok. You'll find that very few people park parallel to eachother. You can lean your bike to compensate for mirror position as you pass by each car. And if it doesn't look like you can fit, you probably can't (and can filter on the other side of the car).
>>14985779
This. The 40% spike in head injuries in Michigan after getting rid of mandatory helmets is a shining example.
>>14985773
Looks like a pretty light load. Did you take much in the way of a tool kit?
First session on this bike and holy fuck do I look slow. Don't worry I was actually slow as well.

i took two vacations instead of buying a new bike this year and I regret it immensely.
I could have gotten a ZX-12.
How many times can you slam down a wheelie before fucking your fork seals? Does it depend on the type of bike? Because I'm bad at this.
>>14985892

I lent one tool to these guys under the bridge, I didn't have to use them myself luckily
I just remembered that I actually needed one screwdriver, on my way back my speedo stopped working because some part at the transmission got loose
>>14985920
Well, you'd expect a bike designed for continuous compression/decompression of the suspension should last a while, but I would expect a fork seal/oil change soon, if it's been used as such since 08. My ninja 500r lasted 13 years before I needed to change them, and they only leaked a little before I sold it. It's just a street bike.
If I started moovlogging, would you watch my videos? Would be entirely tight, twisty roads at night. No engine noises, just my breathing amplified.
>>14985932

>>14985525
The 30lt bag I had last year.
I'm considering if I want a backpack or not, also tempted to get either sidebags or a tankbag.

I would like a tank bag but I really want to be able to easily carry my shit if I need to leave my bike somewhere to eat/sleep/sight see. So a single big bag suits. I'll need some kind of tank bag for my map or whatever though.

>commiting crimes instead of getting good and scouted for you favourite race team
how will you be paid for racing bikes when you are in jail?
When I downshift and ease off the throttle, I sometimes hear the
engine make a pronounced popping sound.
What is that noise?
Is it normal?
>>14986149
Some custom exhausts pop like that, but if it's a stock exhaust then something is probably wrong. If you're worried just take it to your shop and ask them about it.
>>14986070
yeah I'll also have to get the bike in shape, it's not running perfectly at the moment
and I have a bag like this for my tank, it's quite useful
>>14986143
We should wear skin tight spandex instead, you're right.
Anyone that thinks "those clothes don't fit" or "wow those clothes don't go together" is 99% a homosexual. Straight dudes do not notice these things.
People wear clothes because they have to. Get over it.

>>14986229
Maybe the converter, carbs perhaps are dirty or out of spec, check your sparks make sure they aren't fouled. Popping usually caused by excess gas being drawn into the exhaust system when it didn't detonate in the engine and instead detonates inside the exhaust. Get it checked out.

Tent, sleeping gear, clothes, tools, toothbrush etc.
I mean it's all replacable stuff but at the same time I wouldn't feel comfortable walking away from the bike and leaving it all there with just a ratchet strap stopping someone stealing it unless I was withing sight of it.
Two slightly smaller bags might be a decent idea though...

>>14986311
>Tent, sleeping gear, clothes, tools, toothbrush etc.
That's a lot of stuff to be walking around with.
I don't like the idea of leaving my stuff unattented either, I'd rather avoid big cities and shady areas like poland alltogheter, at night I just take everything off the bike and keep in my tent/hotel room.

Still a pendejo
Guys I need help. Got my license couple months ago, still saving for motorcycle because i am a poor student.
I might be renting a Kawasaki VN900 in a couple days because I cant stand waiting any longer, I just have to ride.
Was doing some research and I cant figure out what the foot controls are on the left with some cruisers. What the heck is the foot control that you see here on the rear position. Ive seen this before but never found out what it does. Pleas help!
>>14986221
So it is to hide the fat rolls
>>14986417
..that's a footrest, extended foot rest and the clutch level
>>14986417
Its an extension of the gear shift I think. Instead of pushing up with your toe you can heel down and it shifts up
>>14986417
nvm, its just another way to upshift with the heel.
>>14986427
either this or to be comfy
or both
or, like in my or this fellas case, because it looks wonderfull on you and shows your great taste and that you take care of yourself.
>>14986398
>I'd rather avoid big cities and shady areas like poland alltogheter
kek
I might go for a smaller drybag just for the tent, sleeping bag, tools type stuff and get a small backpack for some clothes, toiletries and snacks that I'll keep with me everywhere.
>>14986462
>to be comfy
Well fitting clothes are more comfy than baggy shit that doesn't fit and t's constantly moving around your body
>>14986472

Anybody ever have nipple chaffing because your shirt fucking flew in the wind? Shit is terrible, also doesn't help that army issue pt shirt is infused with agent fuck-orange, microscopic silver shavings (for increased reflection and anti-bacterial properties) and sandpaper abrasive for increased gripping power when you're doing your sit ups.
>>14986291
>Calc II
whew.
I thought I was doing okay on the final until it came to the techniques of integration. That shit frustrates me to no end.
>just checked my grade
>got a B in the class *so long as the way it is posted has everything weighted correctly
>>14986240
it's probably not allowed
and it's also not easy, it's quite densely populated
a friend of mine just yesterday said that he's going to hike through the Schwarzwald and camp in the forests
he said it's possible, but only in the bigger areas, and by foot it's easier
>>14986241
>That's just a map pocket m8
yes
bag was the wrong word
but I still like that pocket
>>14986511
Integration took a while, but I finally got it down. My worry is sequences and series and their convergence and divergences, their radius of convergence, and solving Taylor series, fuck taylor and maclaruin series.
>>14986486
Wr this is why the muslims rape your wymin.
>>14986470
I'll go with a drybag for clothes/toilet stuff and I'll keep my gear either in a pair of sidebags or a tankbag.
Probably sidebags because I don't think I can mount anything bigger than 15lt on my tank.
>>14986520
>but I still like that pocket
I bet you do.
>>14985525
>What are the rest of you fags bringing?
As little as possible, maybe two tents though. One bigger one for staying more than one night and a small one that can be set up and broken down in a few minutes
>>14986525
Just remember to use ratio and root test for interval of convergence, and take power/Taylor series one part at a time then put the pattern together.
Sequences clicked with me better than integration so that was the test I did the best on.
I'm new at motorcycling. Is it socially acceptable to wear a full face helmet indoors, say to quickly buy something at a gas station or liquor store? I mean visor up. Shits a hassle to take off and carry around.
Also I don't like the color of bike. Is it trashy to just flat-black plastic shit?
>>14986532
>caring about german """"""women""""""""
is there a list of motorcycles with anti lock brakes somewhere?
I've done some googling and it's been a little difficult to find.
I'm looking for a cheap, standard (naked) bike for beginners with anti lock brakes. Something from the early 2000's would probably help keep the price down
>>14986591
I've seen "no helmet" signs at stores and banks
probably to prevent robberies or something
just take it off, takes a literal second
>>14986597
>Learning to ride with ABS
enjoy less fun and being worse than someone who learned without it
>>14986597
If you're a beginner it's probably best you buy a bike with no ABS so you can do it without hamfisting the front brakes
>>14986597
>early 2000s
most bikes didn't have abs then
>>14986597
>2003 Sv650a
>>14986597
Off the top of my head, the Kawi Versys. 660cc with abs. Good suspension. I see a lot of used ones for sale around here for around $4000.
>>14986607
Kek, i learned with a rear drum and front disc.
>>14986597
Or you could just learn to brake without being a retard and relying on computers.
>>14986594
Im not a muslim but i would love to rape wr sister and mum.
>>14986607
I learned to ride with it. But did get a lot of shit from my instructor if it activated.
None of my bikes had ABS and never missed it.
1500€ later and the XT 660 would still be a heavy fuck
what the fuck was yamaha thinking?
>mods should shave off about 14 kilogram
>mods should give about +12.5 HP
so it would have 60 HP
and still would weight 169 kilos (with all liquids)
>>14986506
I never had nipple chaffing from army pts. Just put tape over your nipples. I like all the mystery chemicals and precious metal fibers. You can sweat through them for a week straight without ever washing them and they still smell the same as when you bought them.
>>14986644
That's not bad.
Not worth 1500€ but not bad.
>>14986607
I took my lessons on an ABS bike but literally never engaged ABS because I'm a pussy bitch
>>14986644
60HP is pretty good for a single.
>>14986663
>>14986651
yeah but it could have been like that from the factory, and not over 1500 in mods
BUT! now that I look at it, it's now comparable to the SMC 690
>smc has less fueltank
>weights only 20 kilos less (WITHOUT LIQUID compared to a FULL XT)
still has 66 HP tho
would like to find a full spec sheet of the SMC in actualy road worthy (with fuel oil etc) to compare it to the modded XT
>>14986663
>tfw big singles haven't advanced in nearly 20 years

>tfw riding around midnight full tuck full throttle just trying to go top speed

>>14986688
690 is far better in all aspects and if you doubt that you're arguing with fact and that is never a fun game.
so these >>14986644 dudes built an XT with 60 PS / 74Nm and 165 kg (empty weight)
http://www.off-the-road.de/UEber-O-T-R/OTR-Umbauten/XT-660-X-Racing/
it looks like absolute shit but they got it tested and the peopel from the magazine that tested it said:
Auszug aus dem Pressetext:
>>... Fakt bleibt: Die Yamaha XT ist in dieser Tuning Variante über eine weite Drehzahlspanne so stark auf der Brust wie kaum ein anderer im Hubraum vergleichbarer Einzylinder. Das verschafft diesem Motorrad Sprint-Qualitäten, die sich eins zu eins mit begeisterndem Fahrspaß übersetzen lassen. Und: Trotz des mitreißenden Sounds geht einem die akustische Untermalung (durch die BSM Anlage) auch bei längerer Fahrt zu keinem Zeitpunkt auf den Geist....<<
it stays a fact: the XT, tuned like this, is so strong through the whole powerband like almost no other sinlge. that makes the bike a pleasure to ride and an acceleration beast. And, even if it has the BSM Carbon exhaust, it's even on long tours not annoying [...] (quote ends)
if I'd had a working XT for 1500 bucks I'd spent the remaining 2 grand on getting it tuned there.
>>14986722
well that would have made sense, but I forgot how it was called in english.
>>14986728
i never said it wasn't better, I'd just like to see a comparison, because I wish for more bikes like the 690
it would actually be the best bike for me, but I won't buy it because >le ktm meme
I can't buy a bike like that until either an italian or Japanese manufacturer finally decides to make something comparable.
>>14986728
it looks like shit and is not as reliable.
>>14986741
Yes, choose to not buy a bike based on cherrypicked images from the internet spread by poor people that could never afford one. Seems like a solid strategy.
>>14986748
Yeah, disagree with those facts! I love it.
>>14986697
It seems like dual sports will never change. Absolutly no advancement and they're still rising in price each year. People will gladly buy them with no changes made.
>>14986761
Because they've already been prefected.
>see KLR 650
>>14986752
>cherrypicked images from the internet
that was actually literally me that started this collage ayy lmao!
it's not because it's a ktm breaking meme, but because the people that buy ktms (ktm fans) and the KTMs I have ridden were all pretty shitty, and I don't want to be part of this culture.
>>14986766

>see SWM 650R
>>14986761
>drz in 4 years will still be pigfat and carb'd

>>14986748
It looks far better than the piggy XT and is very reliable.
>>14986770
I can't pick between this and a nuda
>>14986770
yes you should instead buy a bike that needs several thousands of dollars in aftermarket parts before you can race it or ride it aggressively. Seems like a wise choice.
keep ignoring facts, kiddo.

You don't have to join the fan club when you buy from a certain brand
>>14986771
Do you think people will still buy into the meme wheels in 4 years?
Are there any manufactures still making two stroke street bikes?
>>14986785
nuda is a meme bike that can only be loud
>>14986790
>several thousands
>literally 1.5k euro
you can still ride it agressively, it's just not that fun. You can otherwise try to do long tours on an SMC 690 or Enduro 690 and you would wish you'd had an XT 660 instead.
>>14986794
I know, but people like these will then talk to me or at least try to
or assume i'm part of the KTM lifestyle
>>14986727
sprocketthingy, cable or display?
>>14986809
I did several thousand miles trips on a 690 smc.... no issues. deny those facts kid

>caring about other people
You're making a lot of assumptions there. People will treat you the same no matter what bike you're on, and if you don't like them you can ignore them or leave. Shit isn't hard, Yo.
>>14986811
cable
>>14986823
>I keep calling him kid that sure will show him

sure, I'll believe you anon ;)

>interaction with people isn't hard
nice meme, just b urself etc
I've heard that ktm emissions cause people to go autistic.
>>14986790
dude the xt is one third less than the ktm
you can spend 1.5k€ and still have 1.5 left
>>14986846
ktm always derails the thread
ktm confirmed for a shit and main cause of autism
>>14986842
How many pictures would you like? I've got hundreds.
>>14986872
That's the worst shoop I've seen in a while.
>>14986842
>he keeps calling me a kid when I act like a prepubescent fucktard child!
>how dare he!
Don't want to be called a kid? Don't act like one.
>>14986872
>>14986882
what happened to you?
you used to be cool
did they bullied too much for your hypermotard? don't worry, you'll learn to willy eventually
>>14986882
>I act like a prepubescent fucktard child!
I never did that, you're just mad as fuck it seems.
>>14986872
one that proofs that it was yours ;^)
dbt how are triumphs in terms of reliability/maintenance. Would I be looking at a lot to replace some electrical or other above average difficulty problem?
>>14986910
they seem to be solid

Fuk off ye?
>>14986898
Oh I can wheelie, its the long distance ones I don't want to do. Not interested in totaling my ten thousand dollar motorcycle while trying to impress some internet people.
>>14986899
Get cancer fuckstick you know I had a 690 and you know you're denying facts.
Just admit that you deny facts and I'll let it go. Not difficult.
>>14986924
>Oh I can wheelie, its the long distance ones I don't want to do
kek
>>14986922
wait what
>>14986924
>you know I had a 690 and you know you're denying facts
I don't even know who you are, how should I know what bikes you own?
and what facts am I denying? the "facts" that one random dude over the interned told me he can tour thousands of kilometers on a "race ready" bike?
gonna dump a few pics, snuck a ride in before the rain really started
>>14986924
>I can wheelie
>but not good ones
>b- because I don't want to do good ones
>>14986933
Not like its hard to gas it and lean back. Sitting at balance point however takes practice, and I don't have a shitbike to practice on. Can I borrow yours?
>>14985505
how fast was he going ?
why did he turn so early?
why couldn't he correct in time?
I've been riding for a few years and never had even a close call like that.
>>14986939
>>14986915
>>14986920
I just never hear anyone having an issue with them, but if I remember that pic floating around they are still worse than the jap companies but better than the other euorpoors
>>14986942
If good is defined by distance and not height, sure.
>>14986943
You don't have to crash to git gud. Just practice brake control.
>>14986944
target fixation. he wasn't going that fast and it never should have been an issue. i couldn't help but laugh though, i know he wasn't, but it sounded like he was faking it hard
>>14986934
Yes.
>>14986951
>""""great"""" britain
>europe
>>14986957
Everyone crashes while trying to get good at tricks. That's how you get good in the first place. That's how you get good at anything in life.
>>14986954
I judge by time more than either of those. A minute long wheelie at walking pace is harder/more impressive than a mile long wheelie at highway speed
>>14986960
>>14986969
Good, at least you've got that correct.
>>14986965
so you're telling us you're shit at riding since you never crashed?

Same shit as last year in the 25-liter side cases I'm making:
>Clothes, documents, hygiene shit, riding gear, smartphone stuff
>Tools incl. a full socket set and a tyre puncture kit, spare keys for everything
>Tent, sleeping bag, tarp, paracord, straps, knife, first aid kit,
>>14986979
Oh I've crashed dirtbikes hundreds of times, never a streetbike though. Good thing dirt as a kid is such a good learning time, you never make the same dumb mistakes on a streetbike.
>>14986963
>not european when it suits them
>routinely sticks its nose into european affairs and goes full perfidous albion
truly the eternal anglo
>>14986954
Also popping it up really high for half a second tends to be more sketchy than riding balance point because it tends to be done by retards who can't control it or stop it if they start to loop out.
My license plate fell off somewhere in the nether and I'm too scared to go to the court house and get a new one. Someone hold my hand please.
>>14986993
Just get a new one and put it in a steel frame so your exhaust pulses don't shake it apart
>>14986988
how on earth did you manage to ride dirtbikes as a kid learning how to be a good rider and never learnt how to willy ffs
>>14986991
pay warcrimes
>>14987001
I can wheelie over obstacles and such just fine, I'm just not skilled at long distance "show off" wheelies. Hopefully that makes sense.
>tfw you're taking a shit but it's one of those really thin shits that goes forever and winds all the way from your pucker hole to the back of your throat
>tfw been 10 minutes and i haven't even been able to start wiping yet

I'm just trying to figure out what I'm getting into if I buy a daytona, fuck you and your shitty whore island we should have never given you lend-lease REEEEEEE
>>14987010
nah it sounds like you're full of shit but I'm sure you'll come up with some other bullshit to justify yourself to internet anons, I'm out for a ride
>>14987013
a lot of financial problems, struggle and mental pain
>>14987010
You don't have the desire to practice them just for fun? I do them all the time and it's sure not to show off
>>14987016
>could have just bought an inline four
the daytona is literally just the poor man's ducati
>>14987013
had a 2007 d675.
voltage regular failed twice
stator failed 3 times
exup valve failed
intake flapper valve failed
crank position sensor failed
>>14987014
>perfectly reasonable and coherent explanation that many riders share
>"full of shit"
whatever you say bro, I'm likely faster than you :)
>>14987017
Of course I do, but I'd rather practice on something less expensive. Shit, the new hyper has so many electronics you just gas it and it does fat wheelies for you.
>>14987022
actually the ducati owner is the poor man because of all the maintenace lmao!!!
what bike would you be riding if you were 2 meters tall? (6'7")
>>14987032
some adventure bike
>>14985792
Got about 40 minutes into this video before needing a shit break. Learned a little bit from it.
1 - I need to get a camera (any opinions as to the type I should purchase?)
2 - 90% of riders make sure to properly stand their bike up before rushing to their crashed friends aid.
Stay safe /dbt/

the r1200gs. that's what i wish i were riding even though i'm not 6'7"
YEAH NAH
>>14987037
Drift or GoPros are the to go brand, if you want to go cheaper there some SJ4000 or so, chinese GoPro that's seemingly decent quality.
