I need to clean the carbs on my 83' GS550E, but I'm terrified that I'll fuck something up. I've poured over the Haynes manual for the bike and feel semi- confident. Should I just man up and do it, or should I get someone else to do it for me so I don't mess something up?
>>
Anybody here feel like using their sport bike as a commuter in city traffic is obnoxious? I have a Sportster and i can still enjoy it in my day to day riding because all the power is between 2500 and 4000. My only concern is that i plan on getting a R6 and i may become aggravated having to lug it around in slow-ass Baton Rouge traffic.

Got any necessary mods?
>>
>>15036842
why are you planning on getting the bike with the least amount of low down power in the 600 class, the class with the least amount of low down power of sporty motorcycles then.

Are you retarded?

Get a gsx-r750 if you want some mid (inb4 hurr I don't like how it looks though, I wanted le meme r6)

Ayy DRZ bros.

As for necessary mods, you'll probably want to to cut out the airbox snorkel (3x3 mod) and rejet it so it can breathe a little better. If you ever plan on off-roading or anything you should probably get case savers. They're just plates of steel that you stick to the case savers so you don't bust a hole through them if the bike falls on one.
Also adjust all the controls to your liking. I always need to move my levers down and like to roll my bars forward some too.

>>15036933
I find it hard to believe you bought a harley whilst never caring about image but that's good.

Go test ride these bikes and then you won't have questions like this, ride the 750, trust me, you'll like it.

Dealers will usually let you testride basically any second hand bike on the lot no questions.

I find commuting fine on sportbikes, unless your commute is over an hour long the comfort won't factor in imo. GSX-R's have these nice snap back mirrors (most bikes do now too) and sportbikes are nice and slim for filtering.
>>
>>15036979
I thought most places were just 'ride at your own risk.'

Thanks for that tip.

You don't even have to destroy the title then. You can simply not register it and you won't need anything for it.

>>15036972
I would say it depends on the bike a lot. Are you riding a carbed and fuel injected version of the same bike? Are they properly tuned?
A bike with a shitty CV carb or bad tune will feel bad, but my bike with a flat slide pumper carb feels great. Super responsive and smooth on and off throttle.

the fact he accepts basically no blame for the crash is just amazing.

He actually congratulates himself for hitting the brakes like making it even harder to just push that right bar a mm forward and complete the turn was some positive development.

yes just lean it to one side and get comfy with slow speed maneuvers
>>
>>15037034
It will take some getting used to since you will have to hang way off to one side when you stop. You can make it work if you want to. I don't normally recommend the SM but it's a couple inches lower which could help a lot.
>>
>>15037034
yes you just gotta hang off the side a bit and only put one foot down at the lights.

No. I just bout the super moto which is lower and I have a 30 inch inseam. With boots on I can barely get both feet down, and 1 foot down comfortably. I don't think I could do a couple more inches though.

I don't plan on getting anything over 650cc - is there a huge difference between 250 and say 500?

Get a 600/1000, take the MSF, take the ARC, do a track day and you'll be better than 95% of street riders.

>>15037247
They say yes but I haven't felt too many issues with my 250. Although I don't have the guts to enter the freeway, I've hit 65 MPH easy on it. Even got it up to 80. Not super fast, but good enough for commuting.

>nobike newbie here - will I be underwhelmed/bored with a 250cc first bike?
not at first, but soon you probably will

it's frustrating. i commute on a 99 gsxr srad 600 with tons of power between 7-12k. it's illegal to lanesplit in florida and i do it often.
but as long you've got a little time to hit some good riding roads (i basically only get i-95 and a few other highways) then you can still have plenty of fun

I just really enjoy riding. I'm stuck with my Iron right now, but I'm still trying to get better and better with my riding skills. The Iron is so low to the ground that its really easy to start scraping stuff. Especially my boots. I'm trying to turn as hard as I can without low-siding it!

Very fun but big drawbacks.

If you're like me there's not much point owning one, I tend to be ride rather relaxed in urban/city environments but go fast when I'm out of the city and supermotos aren't he best for those 1-2 hour ride out to the corners.

I'm just gonna get a dirt bike for lightweight shenanigans and keep a proper road bike for road riding, I'd be doing an oil change every 2 weeks on a 450 too.
