Did you notice any sikk gainz from the race exhaust?
I think the stock pipe says "Racing" on it too though. 2bh even the stock exhaust on mine is louder than ideal, and I don't really feel the need for an aftermarket pipe.

Same same, I have a friend (nigger of course) that gutted his exhaust (bought bike with several hundred dollar m4 slip on, cuts open rips out everything so its a straight pip, JB welds exhaust tip back on). Every time we ride together he draws so much attention, we roll through the city and cops and everyone has to stop and look at wtf is rolling down the road.

I quit riding with em eventually. Fuckn guy draws too much attention.

Also, ever notice how obscenely loud exhausts just make drivers do unsafe shit, ex. tapping brakes to stop cruise control, look around frantically for what they think is Rossi doing 140 down a city block.

http://www.chinonthetank.com/2014/04/get-a-title-with-a-vermont-registration/

>When you buy your vehicle, make sure you get a bill of sale with the seller, and have it notarized. Here is an example bill-of-sale you can fill out and use. If the actual seller is weird and won’t fill it out with you, or go to the notary… just fill out the bill of sale as if a friend sold it to you, and go to the notary with a friend. A notary surely doesn’t care or know who the real seller is… or when you bought the vehicle.

So my dumbass friend bought a stolen bike off craigslist and cannot get a title. They asked me to help them by filling out the seller portion of the bill of sale, then going with them to the notary.

Is this just asking for trouble? Should I steer clear? We live in California.

Loud pipes save lives applies mostly to highway and blind intersections/alleys/sideroad. In those scenarios louder = people are more likely to be aware of you more earlier.

Well, it's not ACTUALLY confirmed whether the bike or not was stolen.

Here's how it went down

>3 parties
>my friend (A), the guy who sold my friend the bike (B), and the original owner (C)

1. C gives bike to B to sell
2. B sells bike to dumbass friend (A)
3. Dumbass friend can't register bike without title
4. C refuses to give B title or any documentation
5. B can't help my friend out

Would this count as a stolen bike or an old bike without a title? Is it still worth the risk to put my name down on a legal document?

Washed the bike, then took her out, so yes. Went and got some more earplugs, and decided to grab some reusable one for $12.
Anyone tried those reusable ones from Walmart? It seemed a bit louder which I expected, but I dunno, Might stick to the disposables unless I can find a better pair. Or should i suck it up and just use these?

Also, not a fan of Harleys or cruisers, but saw this at the shop. Was quite the sight.

I've got a jacket boots and gloves so far, which is fine for now. I've got a CB500F at the moment and I really like the low end torks and would prefer my next bike to be another twin or V4 instead
>>
>>15086733
they don't do anything if you have them low enough to not snap wrists, i just push my brake/clutch out if im going through shrubs, there is the point that if i hit a tree ill probably break my hand though... so is kinda a lose lose situation when it comes to those fuckers.

You will be looking at nearly twice the power, depending on what bike you had before. Should be completely manageable though.

Oh thats an outstanding bike. Fuck the cbr600s they are super revvy and high strung. Fun I guess but commuting road trips and shit suck they just for quick sprints. And just respect the bike, read and watch videos to increase your rider knowledge and techniques.

I like my power ranger boots. Lots of plastic for max ankle protection, sucks to walk in for more then 15 minutes or so though.

I have more fun buying gear then bike parts kek

>>15087053
Myth m8. I can turn well enough for any city street.

Can do U turns on smaller than average roads.

I'm the midnight star 950 dude, and my bike is much clunkier than say, a sportster and as clunky as most harleys, only with very low floorboards.
>>
>>15087049
Yes.

To get better at something, you must practice it.

You need to make and cement in the neural pathways in your brain, and the only way to do that is to repeat the behaviour you're doing.

everyone has already said what I've said, but yeah, there is useful riding and there is "doodling" one educates you, one is just pottering around.

Deliberate, repeated practice is what you need to do.

This is why I think learning willies is a handy tool because it teaches you the value of repeated practice in motorcycling, you apply the same principles from willying to corners and low speed control etc. Analyse, repeat, improve.

25 hours is the ammount of time that a normal person would require to become a noob.

Here is what you should do.

Get these marks done on the ground. Its the average test that any Brazilian must take to pass and get a license.
0: Unpart and start.
1: Do the number 8 fully then exit ahead
2: its supposed to be those lines on the asphalt, you dont have to do it
3: Go around the cones.
4: Stop the bike
5: Change to second gear and go on top of the yellow line (that is supposed to be a ramp).
6: Stop your bike before the line, downshifting from 2nd gear to first.

I just picked up a DG exhaust slip on AND klx300 header for 85 bucks. it has some rust but im planning on submerging them in vinegar to remove the rust and then re-paint them flat black. Did I do good? I basically bought a full exhaust system for under 100 bucks. it was cannibalized off a KLX300 but im putting it on my KLX250s to uncork it.

>Start moving with your foot on the ground
Because someone might run over your foot. See >>15087486

>Start moving with lights off
Because the driver in front of you wont see you and might just throw his car on top of you.

>Let the bike stall
Might get ran over by other bikers

>Mischange gear
Might take your attention off so you crash

>Lose equilibrium aka take one or both of your foot/feet off the pegs or having to take another step when placing your foot on the ground.

They ride at very slow speeds so losing equilibrium is easy.

>Dont signal a turn
This one is fair

>Hit a cone
Agreed

>Fail to stay on the thin ass ramp
Imagine being squished by two busses or trucks.

>Get one or both tires outside of the lines of the course.
Will crash when doing turns.

>Not upgraded header
I think the KLX300 header is the same size as the 250.

Good price though. You'll probably get annoyed with how loud the muffler is and want to go back to the stock one with the buttplug removed

the KLX300 header is a bit wider however the ends will still fit. I kinda figured I would get sick of the DG muffler so my plan for when that happens is to sand it down and re paint it flat black in engine enamel and re-sell it on ebay and with the slip on alone I can probably recoup the costs for the full system.
