Oh, we're back? Been messing around in photoshop for the last 30 minutes trying to get this looking right. Ended up just googling an image and using some layering to get the end look. This is the look I'm feeling like going for with the ZX-11, opinions?
It's comet/meteor space theme. Feel like the bottom side needs something and it's too blank just being black, but can't think of anything to put there.

Stars done in the same airbrushy style could work.

And by that I mean that they'd start thick at the bottom and fade out half way up.
Try to make the stars not all one color either. Mostly white but with blues, reds, and yellows mixed in

>>14997488
Seems like an interesting concept, but I'm more going for a 90's space theme. I can't make the look myself which is why I had to use stock comet images to get that. Want it in a styling that's similar to this, only instead of the meteor, it'll be my blinkers. You get what I mean, right? It's a bit jarring trying to explain it.

They officially have to be limited to 45 km/h, and you can drive them at the age of 16. Everybody driving something like that just changes the exhaust so you can reach 90 km/h easily. Most of poorfags and teens just drive a faggy scooter anyway (Germany).

this is rather indicative of /dbt/ thinking, rather than engage his brain cells for 10 seconds he just goes for the quickest neuron path in his brains which is he remembers people bang on about destroying fork seals from dropping wheelies down too hard, without thinking about any other possible sources of suspension trauma an enduro bike might "endure"

such as jumps, or technical terrain.

it's actually hilarious how closely it hugs the line where the tread ends to give you that sporty edge grip where you need it.

Like he bought these tyres with that function, they become slicks after a certain lean angle, and the point he wore it down to is RIGHT on the edge of that.

It's fucking hilarious, what in the fuck did you buy these tyres for? Just buy some sport touring tyres, get 2x the mileage
>>
>>14997729
I see someone on a very loud Honda, I think a CBR-600, and always let senpai past while filtering because cars shifting to let him out of the way before he breaks their windows means I can sneak my 125 in behind.

I ride every day, would probably continue to do so if I had a car as well but honestly have no interest in a car outside of transporting motorcycles, If I wanted to avoid rain to commute as it is I could just take the train but I don't because I like riding.

WITH THAT BEING SAID

I don't see the hatred toward fair weather riders, once again it seems like another way for people to add perceived credibility to their riding whilst being completely unexceptional, tyres are good now, riding in the rain isn't hard, it's just often a little uncomfortable and annoying.

People often talk about how people are pussies for not riding in the rain and blah blah blah as though riding in the rain is some kind of fucking achievement, you just slow down a bit and get wet, big fucking woop, these people act like they just armwrestled jesus and won when they talk about riding in the rain.

And yes, it is. Well, it depends on what city you're in. Delhi is particularly bad because there aren't many wastebins available. A lot of street food carts and stalls will just have one tiny trash can, and after it fills up, people will just toss their plates on the ground.

That pic was taken in front of an egg/chai/omelette stand.

I learned how to ride there. Had an absolute blast, to be honest. Half the reason I ever wanted to learn was because folks are always riding bikes in Hindi movies. I felt on top of the world once I got good enough to lane split and keep up with and on top of Delhi traffic.

First and second long-distance-ish rides were nightmares, though. Took the wrong bridge from Noida back into Delhi with an ass-ton of truck and car traffic. Had to pull over and have a smoke because I was afraid I'd die. Pic related. Think it was the bridge into Okhla.

I love driving in Indian traffic. Obviously I'm happy, in some respects, that it's not as chaotic here, but you really feel like you're accomplishing something when you're forced to buzz between two semi-trucks, dodge a bicycle, and then swerve around a bullock cart.

>>14998089

That's nowhere near Karol Bagh. It's somewhere along N-24 going into Delhi. Either it's the crossover on the Yamuna or a bit before that, in Ghaziabad. I have friends in Shipra and Indirapuram, so I went that way and back a lot.

My mistake, but was a guess nonetheless. I had numerous horrific experiences when riding through Ghaziabad. Its hazy all the year round, the truck drivers will make you piss your pants, and road rage usually ends in a pistol brandishing scene a la spaghetti westerns. My SOL Unicorn helmet had its visor rendered useless because of the low visibility.

I haven't really rode around or even visited the central parts of Ghaziabad. I've just spent a lot of time around Indirapuram, Shakhti Kand, and Shipra Sun City.

I didn't think driving in those parts was bad. The same goes for Noida, when I was staying there. Lots of congestion and typically bad Indian drivers, but it was easy enough to weave through traffic on a bike.
