Is getting a cruiser as a first motorcycle a good idea?
I like the look of Yamaha's vstar 250, but it seems like it might be a chick bike?
>>15228658
Fuck off you piece of shit cuckold that likes getting fuckt by the italian nigger bbc.
>>15228637
>>15228615
Any specific things to look out for on these? I know the 2001 bikes had oil consumption issues and other than that they're fairly bulletproof, but anything for this specific year?
>>15228664
might be because 250cc bikes are chick bikes.
Get 500 or even 750cc cruiser
>>15228658
>>15228662
I guess summertime is when all the fairweather niggers come to dbt.
It's cute really

Fuck off cruisercuck and i hope you die of aids
>>15228679
>fairweather
my bike is my only means of transportation, newfag
>>15228664
Fellow cruiser rider here,
I wouldn't get a cruiser that small.
I'd agree with >>15228675, a larger cc cruiser is better. A 250 won't be enough to get you out of a shit situation, and usually small enough to be non intimidating
>>15228664
Cruisersfags not welcomed :)
>>15228673
There pretty good bikes. That engines has been used since like 1984? on the gsxr and katana so it pretty old reliable jap tech.

Bike luggage.
I am looking for a good motorcycle dry bag to put my stuff in that has some good attachments built into it. Most dry bags I am familiar with are for canoeing and are slick on the sides. Like pic related except I don't know what I'm looking at.
Anybody have any recommendations?

When you're buying used on Craigslist, should I make an offer over the phone or wait until I'm there in person?
Bike is 3hrs away and $2200 OBO. I'd aim for $1800 but I've never haggled before.

How is /dbt/ supporting the cash out that is getting into bikes? What do you guys do for a living?
Currently am unemployed in college and doing freelance tutoring work to try to get another bike. I own a Sv650 and desperately want to upgrade.
Tl;dr help I need a job. Recommendations?
>>15228966
Stay jelly poorfag
Hey /dbt/
Just saw that now Yamaha is putting out a factory scrambler. Now I am curious, just how well do any of these factory scramblers actually handle leaving the pavement? I can understand it they aren't dual-sport level but do they have any real capability beyond a standard bike or is it all just hipster bait?

Also WRanon posting OC in almost every thread, I hope this comes back when he has his license

guess someone has to pay for those $150k bombs that we use to blow up huts in the desert. work harder faggot.
>>15229036
It's castrated for everyone and just because they asked 1.6$m when it came out doesn't mean it's worth that much.
>>15229040
>lying on 4chan
Okay buddy
>>15229019
There's still plenty oc on here. Just gotta sift through the trolling
>>15229013

so why do you ride a 1k$ japcrap shitbike?
>>15229059
Why do you care?
>>15229034
With that kinda money you'll be able to get as many groms as you want

It has 214 horsepower with the sport kit. Which is I guess actually due to ECU because Honda couldn't be arsed to meet sound regulations by doing anything but limiting rpm because muh weight.
It weighs as much as a CB300 by the way.
>>15229091
My bike is a 2015
>>15229117
I love you newfriend :)
>>15229077
>not having to pay for water

The sport kit isn't street legal and so is the 'open' one.

>>15229143
y-you too

I see you didn't get the reference.
It's ok anon
>>15229138
Do you enjoy your cvt?
>>15229151
Maybe.
Still has the same power to weight ratio as an R1M without it..
>>15229152
stop buying unreliable japcrap
>>15229169
here is your (you)
>>15229167
A R1M is like 160k less tho
>>15229138
What fucking japbike from 2015 costs 16k$? wtf
>>15229200
a really advanced racing bike
>>15229183
A Corvette is like 95% as fast as a million dollar car as well, bang for buck isn't the point of such things.
RC213V-S will be quite a bit faster if any kind of corner whatsoever is involved though.
>tfw you will never get triggered by the internet so badly that you have to "show them who's boss" by flooding images of things you think will annoy them
Feels good, man.
>>15229212
Why don't you own a corvette than anon?

>>15229229
>special editions
you mean collectors's edition that never leave the garage?
>>15229242
You mean Harleys in there natural habitat
>>15229152
I thought that engine looked familiar. Check your stator plugs to make sure they're put in correctly. If you bought one of the cheap chinese stators, I have heard they sometimes put the wires backwards.
>>15229253
kewl thanks bud
>>15228909
Well to be fair the Honda being first in points is more a testament to Marquez and his insane skill. The bike is a pig, and was even worse last year.
>>15229228
Baiku is also 95% as fast as a Corvette and takes up 1/10 the space.
>>15229287
Coming from somebody that rode that bike more than once i belive you m8.

Everyone has an opinion.
Have you tried not buying one?
Its worked great for me
>>15229287
>and 4th
Bike is fine except for traction control. They're fast in the corners and fast at the end of the straights.
>>15229320
that does look kinda nice
>>15229318
You can make a Harley look however you want, so unless you love the look of plastic that doesn't make sense.
>>15229320
Looks like an Indian knockoff
>>15229337
>plastic
like a dual sport
>>15229307
What? What's that? I can't hear you over the sound of my busa. Too much power for you son, go home!
>>15229318
No.
>>15229344
Only niggers have busasome. So that makes sense

Dani is no slouch but he has only has only managed to muster 3rd twice this year, and both in races where high profile riders have crashed out.
How shitty would it be to have a grom as a first and only bike, being the main mode of transportation during the summer?
>>15229400
everyone crashes anon, at least you got over with it now
>>15229409
You can barely hit 50mph
let that sink in.
>>15229400
sorry to hear that m8 :(
got pics of your baiku?
>>15229409
where do you live? do you own atleast an econo box?
>>15229412
lol he didn't even get to ride the bike
>>15229400
>>hand slides off
You have a bright but short future ahead of you of being shit at riding
>>15229409
If you never went above 50mph ever it'd be alright I guess.
>>15229400
Shit happens.
At least you only got superficial damage from it.
>>15228664
I have one, first bike too. Pretty fun and since I've only been riding for 5 months feels about right. Might go to a 650 in a few months when I'm more competent and have the funds. If you've ever ridden before you'd probably want something bigger than
>>15229409
Shit reaches 62mph, don't listen to nobikes
fine in the city, get a 250 if you plan to ride somewhere else
>>15229431
What bike do you have?
>>15229434
>constantly redlining your bike just to reach the speed of traffic as your top speed after a full minute of pinning it
>acceptable for a main mode of transportation
>>15229434
sure if you like to full throttle at the highest gear. Maybe if you're going downhill you'll reach that speed.
Yes please
>>15229424
well, it was more like jolted off violently but we're talking semantics.
I plan to git gud at riding though
>>15229427
surprised it didn't fuck my wrist
>>15229475
>>15229400
Ayy!! Didnt even get to ride it.

If you're in the US you pretty much follow all the same rules as a car, but the controls are different and people will try to run into you more.
>>15229539
>why is harley so fucking garbage?
because they pander to those with a mid life crisis, and have a "tough American" image, but the majority of their parts are made overseas and assembled in America.
>>15229532
Honda a shit
>>15229605
hello red.dit
Did Harley Davidson ever jump on the cafe racer bandwagon? A quick look through their current lineup and theres nothing in there that really carries the cafe look. Closest would be the Street-500 I guess?
>>15229593
I know right. Lime what kind of company is in business to make money at the expense of its customers??!?! That's a shitty business practice amiright?
