I caught some schoolgirls posing on my bike today after I came out of work. They laughed and ran away when they saw me coming.

I was offered a 1990 Honda CBR 600F for my 16giggitybyte iPhone 6+. The guy lives quite close to me so I could go check up on that bike myself before agreeing to trade, he claims it's in okay condition for an old bike, not perfect but drivable.
Should I do the trade if the bike is infact in okay condition and not a total bomb on 2 wheels?
>>15092864
i can fix it i just don't want to also it's raining so I don't really want to go outside

Forgot to add that I've owned one bigger bike thus far which was an ancient 1987 Kawasaki GPZ 500, the same kind of bike used in Top Gun, but smaller as that one was 750cc if I remember correctly
Also, not gonna get mugged because I don't live in America, no offence.
>>15092919
where do you live
i'll come mug you personally

New helmet day, also this weekend is supposed to be sunny, so I can finally give these tires a good scrubbing.
Why does my 90cc dirt bike start to bog out high up in the rev range?
Should I enrich the fuel mixture a little?
>>15092974
Seems unlikely that it would've been totaled for scratches. And I wouldn't pay over 1200 for it if you can get it to fire off without the pipes
>>15092956
Ye, I'm going to give that thing a look tomorrow. I kinda like my iPhone, so if he's going to jew out and ask for more money or if the bike runs like raped ape and is held together by zipties, I'll just back out.
>>15092816
That's not Fuel.
>>15092992
Easy test to try, if yourcarb uses and enrichening valve for the choke as opposed to a butterfly plate.
Turn the choke on and see if the bog improves. I'd it does you need to up jet sizes.
Also make sure everything is clean and undamaged on the intake/exhaust.
And lastly have you modded anything without rejetting?
>>15092977
s20 evo?
>>15093007
I'll try the choke trick
>And lastly have you modded anything without rejetting?
no sir.
Are bikes loud enough that you should wear ear protection while riding?
>>15093069
The bike likely isn't, but the wind is if you're going around 100 kph for a while.
>>15093080
So basically wear a full helmet and you're good
>>15093086
No, wind will still create turbulence that will deafen you over time. Wear ear plugs pls anon
>>15092929
Työnnä cebaris perseesees homo :DDDD
>>15093052
It will only help if you carb uses the enrichening system and doesn't have a butterfly plate in it.
What bike and year?
>>15093069
road noise is pretty bad once you get going. slow speed your bike might be loud enough
>>15093086
I get road noise in my hjc and in the sedici which are pretty cheap brands.

>>15093013
No, they're the stock Pirelli Rosso 2s. The bike isn't broken in yet.
Tempted by this, but something seems off. Surely it can't be good to only do 380 miles on it in 3 years.

some chickenshit keeps hanging bags on my bikes handlebars whilst im at university. if I catch that twat im going to replace his innards with said bag.
anybody ever tampered with your imaginary bike guys?
>>15093134
Probably old guy bought it, got bored, left it in garage.
A guy at my work in his 40s bought a brand new Yamaha 125R whatever it's called and prefers to take his car to work, some people are quite retarded, in fact anyone who bothers with a 125 is.
>>15092977
>either really good rider with indistinguishable chicken strips or the colonel himself
>>15093134
How much are they asking for it? That could also be a big indicator
>>15093139
Is anything in them? Or are they just empty plastic bags?
>>15093165
£2500, which is about £500 more than I'd pay for it.
>>15093120
my shitbike tops at 70 and highways are pure sketchy. but yeah next time I'm going to get a better brand
>>15093069
nah. I ride like 140kph every day for 40mins on a bike with no fairing... single cylinder even without baffles in the exhaust it was still fine, probably not too nice to drive behind with the racket it makes...
>agv stealthsv hardly makes a noise
>>15093183
empty just to make the situation worse. if there was sandwiches in or something it wouldn't be as bad. ive parked it in my vision... its just a waiting game now.
should I wear my Kevlar knuckled gloves to end the cretin?
>>15093212
Yes, you should
>>15093080
Most bikes aren't loud enough, but it's the wind noise that screws with your ears. After a long day of riding without ear pro, my tinnitus acts all fucky.

Pretty much anything 2013+. KTM EXCs, Yamaha WRs, Suzuki RMZs, etc.
Not DRZs.
>>15093298
It shows 12k miles on one of the pictures.
I was going to spring for an Fz6 for $3k
>https://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/mcy/5582636214.html
I was shooting for those kawasaki's everyone recommends but they're going for at least $3k or higher for whatever reason.
>>15093273
That was crashed. Not sure if that matters to you. It matters to me.
>>15093389

Also can we have some general banana bike appreciation?
>>15093484

I'm a big league stunna now
>>15093484
Holy fuck that sprocket
That engine probably has 25-30k on it with that gearing
>>15093484
>shifting to 5th gear before you get beyond a brisk walking pace
>>15093511
Lower gearing makes the engine turn faster so it would read higher than actual mileage if it was measured on the transmission of that bike.
DRs measure their speed/miles on the front wheel, so gearing doesn't matter.
>>15093453
>>15093463
Thanks for letting me know to avoid that.
Not too many options for bikes in my area, either salvaged title, high mileage, or some other issue or another.
I found this as well but the mileage scares the shit out of me:
>https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/mcy/5591451938.html
Think I'll spring for that Honda.
>>15093511
Ive noticed some people gear up on the rear sprocket to varying degrees, and i looked a little into the performance side of this, but i dont understand much about the maintenance bit.
Why does it wear out an engine so much faster? Are there any other wear issues associated with big sprockets?
What's the best chinkshit 125? I'm considering a Lexmoto ZSA for £600.
>>15093531
They read off the front tire, which would logically lead to the engine having turned a similar number of times to a reasonably geared one with 25k on it.
As in the odor reads low but the engine may be thrashed. Plus airheads and low speed aren't a good mix
>>15093540
Depends on the extent. It means your engine revs more per mph you ride which at a couple teeth difference doesn't really matter but when you drop the ratio like that you you make a big discrepancy between typical engine wear and miles indicated compared to normal
>>15093532
idk. it might be fun for a first bike.youd have to undue everything the asshole did to it though, starting with that fucking unfortunate exhaust. Try to pick it up for 2k, citing the disastrous "custom work".
>>15093546
Dual sports are literally designed to go slow on trails. It won't hurt them. Yes off-road mileage with lower gearing puts more wear on the engine with street mileage. I would still expect the engine to have tons of life left on it though. DRs last a long time.
>>15093532
>in my area
This is key. I've driven across the country to look at bikes. Never bought one in state. You can't just look on your local craigslist and call it good.
>>15093545
my first bike was a wuyang 125 and was absolutely shit. stupid me was stupid, buy and old Honda cg125.
>swear on my life on the tank it said 'please drive crafurry'
>>15093574
I have a dr650, they generate enough heat that if you ride trails that warrant that low of gearing the engine is going to overheat a lot if you don't stop and take Lots of breaks.
Also where the fuck do you get a sprocket that size for that bike?
>>15092844
>thought the same
>mfw all it needs is warmup and choke
>mfw even FI bikes need warmup and choke
>>15093588
There are places that will custom make sprockets.
>>15093599
>mfw EFI bikes don't need choke because they automatically enrich the fuel mixture when cold
>mfw the clutch on my bike doesn't work until the oil gets hot
>no choice but to let it sit and idle to warm up

Do you go about searching each states local craigslist or cycletrader or some such?

What do you guys think about this bike? I've been riding a Honda mb5 around town but I would like the freedom to travel far. Anything I should look out for? They said they are just a title loan company and they repossessed the bike and it was still working when it was brought in, but beyond that is my legwork and risk.

>>15093658
the honda cb750f is what people see and think its a cafe racer. So they try to copy it and get themselves a supuer faggy cafe racer bike and a super faggy helmet and go around town all super faggy and shit.
but in fact, the cb750f or the 900f is the truth.
parts are rather cheap as fug, they're easy to work on, and when they're looking /running good, people ask fucktons of money for em
>>15093658

>>15093753
yeah, I wasn't looking that closely at miles and shit.
75K is up there
Morning dbt, you fags have any riding plans for today?
personally i will be doing 100 or so kilometers on dirt squirter this morning, more depending on the fuel situation, see how it goes
>>15093794
my xr650r is in storage and im too depressed to do anything about it.

>>15093801

>>15093794
Maybe visit a nearby lake, when I get over my freeway terror
>>15093801
why are you depressed?
Go get it and store it in your bedroom instead
>>15093571
I shot off an SMS offering him $2k, see what he messages back. Not really interested though.
>>15093651
Found some shit interestingly enough. 6 hrs away though.
Do you guys rent a uhaul truck or something to bring something from that far away.
>>15093812
i keep my ktm in my bedroom.
I'm just bored with life atm.
>>15093794
>Morning dbt

No, I have a truck. Or I bring a trailer. One time I flew to texas to look at and ride a daytona 675. I then shipped it home.

>>15093828
Damn, well I thought that maybe buying a motorcycle would fill me up inside...guess it was all part of the spectacle trying to recuperate my depression again. Damned spectacle
>>15093889
good luck. Remember the rear brake will save you
>>15093869
I know... seems like it was yesterday
>>15093889
Keep your foot on the rear brake and practice stomping on that shit as soon as the front wheel lifts off the ground, you want playing with that brake to be second nature before you get near the balance point, otherwise ya gonna flip your bike.
>>15093884
I wouldnt worry about it if i was you, go drop it again, get more scratches and stop caring about dropping the thing because its going to happen again anyway.
At least that way you arent going to pussy foot around going "oh noes i scratched my bike"
Main reason why i will drop any brand new bike i get down a hill.
>>15093810
why are you scared of the freeway? new rider?
>>15094009
either that or tiny bike that barely does freeway speeds
>>15093952
it takes like 2 minutes to touch up the scratches though..I have the spray can right next to me m80
Just rode a CBR250R for the first time.
Is it just me or do sportbikes (not supersports) have uncomfortable riding positions? I was going to get a FZ-07, but I heard the riding positions were similar, so...
>>15094022
wait you spray painted the plastics?
i thought you bought white plastics for it
>>15094023
mt-07/fz-07 have a completely upright riding position uleh
>>15094023
For long distances they're certainly not the comfiest, but I guess it depends on your body and what you're used to.
Is it your first bike or did you ride anything else before?
Cause I started on a dual sport and riding on a sports bike felt extremely uncomfortableafter that for the first few times, but it got better over time
>>15093934
This. People be like
>cover the rear brake
But any time your foot is on the peg you're "covering" yet they don't make a habit of using it. So when they go too far back they freak out and throw the bike out and crash instead of just pressing the brake and coming down.
>>15093922
Have you ever considered buying a superior WR250 (2-stroke)?
>>15094057
I ride a 2 stroke so i have to always use my rear brakes, can kinda get away with it on a 4 stroke if it has a lot of engine braking
>>15094028
>>15094022
spray painted plastics always look like shit though
Well I finally caught a break from the shits for a bit.
First for tornados! I'm probably going to get sick again, fuck it these trailer trash burritos are delicious.
>>15094078
Depends on how far back you go really. There's a point where engine braking can no longer save you.
>>15094085
Not if you do it right.
>>15094040
How much more upright are naked bikes like the SV650 & FZ-X?
>>15094043
Uh, I've ridden cruisers, dirt bikes, and supersports. Yesterday was the first time I've ever got on a sportsbike. Dirt bikes are the comfiest in my opinion.
>>15094065

if you had to fuck a bike, what bike would it be?
keep in mind your erect dick must enter the exhaust contacting at least 28% of your shaft(unsheathed for you uncut master race) until ejaculation. No lube is available. cuts, loss of blood, flaccidity are not acceptable excuse to stop thrusting. the engine may or may not have been idling for 40 minutes.

Traffic is far worse than speed.

Passing trucks is what scares me the most. That sudden, powerful gust of wind.
>>15094220

Freeway's quite relaxing actually, it's those residential roads at night that are absolute nightmare material, speed bumps appearing out of nowhere on 80km unlit roads are quite enjoyable.

Love my two hundred. It's a beast on the trails except when you're on sumo tires apparently. I would definitely like some taller gearing and extra power for the street though. I can't cruise faster than 60 mph or so without revving the piss out of the motor.

i chose my tattoo's to represent dead family members, skulls seemed the best way to do that since picture tattoo's arent my thing,
>>15094563
you dumb??? whatever sticks
/dbt/, recommend me some good earplugs. These reusable ones I don't think I'ma get used to, and the orange disposable ones I bought are just a bit too thin to really work.

Hey /dbt/.
yuropoor here. How realistic is it to go from starting to learn riding this month, to be able to commute a 60km trip everyday, through highway with pretty heavy traffic on the morning, and a bridge in September? And do all this on a 250/300
>>15094625
Constant exposure to moderately loud sounds can cause hearing damage.
>>15094639
>can
Not will.
>>15094637
>thinking 60km is far
Fucking yuropoors
>>15094643
"Can" as in you're much, much more likely to will rather than wont.

>tfw been riding for years
>tfw go shooting regularly
>tfw go to concerts regularly
>tfw can still hear above 21k hz
Are my ears just magical?
>>15094669
You're still young. Or an exception to the rule.
>>15094669
you're still young?
do your ears hurt after concerts?
you know you don't notice and you think your ears are invincible then one day you realize the ringing won't stop and it's too late
>>15094662
>110db
That's still lower than instant hearing damage. 120db is the threshold for instant damage.
I'm bad at things.
Lets try that again.
>Traffic
>>15094676
no exceptions. you don't notice hearing loss or tinnitus until it's too late.
same with eyes. you get to a certain age and you just forget that like trees have bark texture and license plates have numbers. one day you'll realize you're holding your book at arms length and it's time to get a Harley Davidson™ and some reading glasses
>tfw last drivers license test I memorized the line with my good eye
>>15094677
They hurt a bit but everything feels back to normal in a few hours/next morning
I don't want tinnitus
>>15094678
It's not instant damage, smart guy. It's continuous, unceasing, slow damage that builds up over time. If you think you're so smart you don't need ear plugs, then fine, but don't go out and try causing potential injury to other people with your misinformation.
went for a ride today- acutally two
only one person tried to kill me and they didn't try very hard (got in left turn only and then turned right into my space as I was going straight, fucking dumb bitch)
video at never
>>15094687
That skyline though.
Ignoring the faggot telling me not to wear them, was thinking of these.
http://www.amazon.com/3M-OCS1135-Yellow-Neons-Earplugs/dp/B008MCUOH2
They look to be the same as the first 5 pairs I used, and those worked exceptionally well.
>>15094713
A guy almost turned out in front of me today. I tried to beep at him but missed the button because I was wearing stiffer gloves than usual. He managed to see me and stop anyway so w/e.
>>15094731
Am I missing something ?
>>15094733
You're the faggot who can't make up his own mind on ear plugs
>>15094662
>been racing unmuffled supersport bikes for 4 years

Guess I'll be playing the 'which condition will come back to bite me in the ass when I'm an old guy' game in 40 years.
>>15094731
I prefer rolling country hills to a city skyline filled with smog.
>tfw seeing videos and pics of big cities was a big reality check for me as I've never had to live in a city with visible smog
>>15094733
Just wear anything. If your ear holes are big then try to get some bigger firmer ones. It doesn't really matter as long as you got something stuffed in your earholes.
Also you're probably not putting them in right.
>>15094746
Probably not, I just thought the view was nice.
>>15094733
those are fine. a little stiffer foam is better than less stiff and I've had all kinds. the best is when you go to Grainger and they have a giant free bin out.
I got these from an MRI.
>>15094757
>40 years.
>>15094782

Good point, I probably won't last that long.

The only thing I'm looking forward to is being far enough into my career that I can spend all my time and money in my garage making increasingly over-the-top cars and bikes that I design myself.

Buy a case of the Howard Leight lazer lite's, they work well, are cheap, and disposable but will be good enough for 2-3 days of use.

bruh check out my sick 450cc vape. It makes such big clouds.
>>15094856
If I smoke, it's Turkish Royals. So at bars or parties.

You're obviously biased and have a personal interest in shilling these. Opinion disregarded
>>15094733
those look like garbage anon.
I have a huge bag of these and they're GOAT

The box is cheaper and the only difference is that plastic wire that you'll quickly grow tired of.
>>15094949
I wasn't saying to buy that link, just they're the type.
>the only difference is that plastic wire that you'll quickly grow tired of.
que? The ones I linked were uncorded anyway?
>>15094959
Huh, linked me to the corded ones? Mobile, what you gonna do?
The laser lite's were always my favorite to use and they are the only model that HL used to actually run any kind of QA on. Avoid the green ones and the yellow ones, fucking disaster to make those.
