I do it for the memes, nothing more, nothing less.
>>15247014
Though I would like to agree with you, I sold my 750 so naturally Suzuki a shit.
>>15247030
are you a nigger
how do make sure all the tripniggers get splattered across the pavement?
>>15247030
you should at least freeze that dent out of your header then
>>15247014
>All that creepy fog
I like that shit
you guys should come to the Barber Vintage Festival this year. nobody from /o/ ever goes and its really worth the trip. i think i'm going to be racing there with AHRMA
>>15247040

>>15247049
i just wish i could get out in it more often, i like the isolation in the trails and service roads
>>15247014
fucking sturdy those boxes eh
>>15247040
regular offerings to our patron god, the skid demon, these can be libations of motor oil or chain lube, or burning the rubber of worn tires while wearing the ceremonial garb of a motorcycle chain over your riding gear.
>>15247077
incredibly tough.
they make skidplates out of the same stuff for a reason
>>15247075
I don't blame you maneed. It's relaxing, unless it's in the city and ppl try to kill you more :/
>>15247098
Maneed...what kind of auto correct was that?
Man* lol.

>>15247112
Don't do that, it can burst the pipe . Look up 2 stroke pipe repair, those dudes will take the dents out of your pipe for around $60.
>>15247098
i hate city riding for that reason, no matter what the weather or time of day is a gamble with the idiots here.
>>15247112
pull the header off, fill it partially with water to fill the dented section and freeze it a few times to push the dent back out. only put enough to fill the damaged area.
>>15247161
Your chop bowl and choice of scissors is very manly.

>>15247161
Well I live in the city, so not many choices sadly. But I like to be out in the farmland areas riding usually
>>15247218
Its not bobbed, I just took off the broken rear fender and built a frame for the plate and light.
Pipe isn't gutted, the baffle is still there.
And yeah this bike lived a hard life before I got it, looks like it was beaten like a back alley whore, but it runs and is fun to ride so I literally don't give a fuck.
Alright, after putting solid 50 miles on my new bike, I already started putting shit on it.
>>15247241
>>15247241
>milk crate
I approve the fuck outta that yo.
What's a good price to ask for my jacket on Craigslist? It originally cost $400 new, doesn't have any damage and comes with a vented back protector and chest protector inserts. Size 40US/50Euro.
Just not sure what typical Craigslist depreciation is for motorcycle jackets.
>>15247241
swing arm stickers stick out like a motha..first thing i noticed
>>15247268
>>15247241
Milk crates are great...until you hit a sudden bump in the road. Then all your shit is on the windshield of the car driving behind you. Ask me how I know.
>>15247281
How do you know
>>15247271
ask 250, take 200. one time i got $50 for a ridiculous XXXL mesh joe rocket jacket that was 5 generations old and only cost $110 new.
>>15247281
I've wrapped some extra mini bungees around it so I can swing them over the top and cover the crate, but I'll look into maybe getting a cargo net.
>>15247292
cargo net is life
>>15247030
dents in your header really don't matter. In fact a shitbike with an undented pipe is heresy
>>15247241
if/when that tail light falls apart on you, get the drz250 assembly for a much tidier and more compact setup, its a straight plug and play fit.
mine fatigued and broke last weekend in the woods so it just flopped around for the ride home
>there's no way you can catch me bruh. I have a SEE BEE ARE one THOUSAND ARE ARE
>>15247297
That does look much better.
good night puppers
>>15247241
I remember that when I slid my 06 dr200se out, a bolt punched a nice circular hole through the back of my right blinker and crushed the bulb as well. I """"""""repaired"'"'''''''''' the hole with duct tape, but my bars are still bent from the crash.

Are DG exhausts good? Procycle specifically lists them as very light, so I was thinking about getting one, but it's suspiciously cheap.

Why does fallout have such good taste in motorcycles?
>>15247419
that is the 450R. I was talking about that CRF.
>>15247399
You can legally register any dirt bike that is not an MX bike where i live, things like 300cc 2 strokes are actually listed as LAMS bikes so even learners can ride them on the road.
>>15247428
They are supposed to be nuclear powered in fallout

its probably a Honda.

Ok cuck.
I forgot only hardly makes a cruiser
>>15247493
>I don't know what an Indian is
I'm the guy who badly wants a CBR250RR in the USA. I'm doing some research about importation and I found this shit outlining what you actually need to do, and this is actually really promising.
https://www.flexport.com/learn/import-vehicles-u-s/
https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/297/~/permanently-importing-a-motorcycle
Basically, if I find one that's from 1996 or older, I don't have to worry about EPA restrictions. So no worrying about having to cable tie a catalytic converter onto the end of the exhaust and pay $2000 for someone to emissions test it. There's half the problem solved.
The thing that has me slightly worried is that it unless I find one from 1991 or older (which I don't want), it has to comply with DOT requirements too. Is that just headlights, signals, and plates? What do they actually check for? This is the form you have to submit.
https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/297/~/permanently-importing-a-motorcycle
Do I just submit the form with code 2A and then do whatever is needed to make it US street legal? Worst case, I can't imagine getting it registered to be any harder than converting a dirtbike into a supermoto.
Has anyone done this? Does anyone know anyone who has done this? Am I wasting my time?
>>15247509
Also, look at the fenders, especially the rear. That's indian's calling card, their fenders.
>>15247520
If you are importing the bike why don't you get a nc35?
400cc is better than 250.
>>15247428
>tfw no nuclear reactor between your legs while riding
>>15247525
This shows their design perfectly
>>15247493
And please, next time, think before you speak. It is still shitposting even if it is ironic.
>>15247448
CR500 is LAMS, shit is retarded.
>>15247534
>the feel is real bro :(
>>15247534
The sad thing about nuclear reactors is they are literally big steam engines that use nuclear material to generate the heat.
they really are not high tech at all.
>>15247552
DELETE THIS
You always ruin the fun here.
>>15247541
That's a sexy ass bike, I like where you're going with that
>>15247520
O no, DOT requirements are a bitch. Don't import one that doesn't comply.
>>15247533
>V4
Just as well, honestly.
But something about specifically a tiny inline 4 gets me off. Plus...
>19k redline
Fucking listen to this shit.
https://youtu.be/IXt7fQsDsk8
>>15247545
It is..?
my brothers yz250fx isn't lams approved because technically it is an MX bike, can only get rec rego on it too
>>15247520
>Am I wasting my time?
Yes, and wasting your money. I can see you trying to import a 48'trailer full of rare bikes and selling them, but buying one just for personal use is kind of pointless.
>price of bike

>>15247578
Ehh what ever floats your boat
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdmPcZ6rxSs
>>15247584
You can find them overseas for like 2500 USD. For whatever reason, motorcycles are duty free. Shipping is probably $700. Maybe another $500-$1000 to make sure it's not going to seize on the road and get it registered. Even if the asking price is higher, you can walk away for probably $5000, and for that you're riding something that maybe 10 other people in the country have. Yes please.
>>15247558
>>15247552
the high tech part is the stuff that keeps it from killing you when you get within 3 miles of it.
>>15247520
fall in love with an MC28 NSR250R instead, i see them already imported, registered, and for sale here occasionally.
>>15247520
>jimbob can build a completely custom bike in his garage and register it with ease
>but registering a bike from another country is nearly impossible.
Seriously though why would anyone bother to import a 250 into the US?
>it doesn't even sound very good IMO. A high revving single sounds better
>>15247584
Apparently NC35s used to be popular imports as race bikes but you skip most of the bullshit that way, plus they couldn't give the fucking things away in Japan anyways.
>>15247580
Is it because it doesn't have lights or what? Because the X isn't the MX model.
>>15247608
So lead walls and water..? So high tech
>>15247633
because it is basically the MX bike with the enduro gear box, fx is a special snowflake bike for endurocross
>>15247570
Would I just be better off getting one that's 25 years old? That would get around noncompliance, according to that page I found. If it's disgustingly expensive to get DOT compliance, then yeah I'd rather not bother.
>>15247609
>two stroke V-twin
Well...
>>15247633
a write up on them if you are actually interested in the bikes
https://transmoto.com.au/ride-impression-2015-yamaha-yz250fx/
>>15247679
MC22 starts in 1990 anyways, there's practically no difference between 1990-1993 models besides graphics and 1994+ they had to nerf the engines for new licensing laws.
>>15247679
>>15247708
Also I should say if you're that desperate for a 92 it will be 25 years old in a few months anyways.
>>15247708
That's useful to know. The MC22 is what I'm actually after. So the real trick is going to be finding a model year 1991 that isn't beat to fuck, and then buy it sight unseen from halfway across the world, get someone to put it in a crate and fly it to Texas.
Worth it.
>engine nerf
>>15247736
Well Japan's license classes are 250/400/unrestricted, with 250 bikes having lower cost of ownership because they don't require mandatory biannual inspections, so when they had the big race replica craze in the late 80s and early 90s the 250 boy racer bikes started getting way the fuck out of hand.
Not much point in a 250 license restriction if they can get a 250 supersport or GP replica faster and more dangerous than a normal 400.
>>15247689
when did WRs get a 6 speed?
>>15247387
Yeah, they sound nice for the price. Not too loud but they have a clean bassy thump to them.
>>15247392
The nigra I bought it off of secured a street legal title somehow. I did the conversion myself.
>>15247392
NJ, and mostly legal.
>>15247399
Not the best choice but you get snowflake points.

Exactly what happened. Well, it was 5000 miles of commuting but close enough. I ride every weekday and very occasionally I ride for fun on the weekend.
>>15248127
maybe you should consider a sport touring tire this time
>>15247520
I know most people here in California just register their grey market bikes in South Dakota via mail. They then take the bike to the CA DMV and just do a transfer of state so you have no problems. It really depends on where you live but CA is the strictest so if you don't figure it out your way then just look into SD moto registration. As for the DOT requirements, I know all of the lights have to be DOT certified or whatever. It's a real pain in the bitch if you don't want to spend a lot money on new lights.

>>15248201
If you have the money you should also get a spare set of wheels off of ebay to put some superbike pros on for the track. You'd save money in the long run if you go to the track regularly. It's also nice to not have to change street tires so often.
>>15248204

>they can also take your plate at any time

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. As long as you have 7,500 miles on the odometer, all 49 state bikes are legal in CA. If the bike is registered in SD then it's a 49 state bike friendo. But please show which law you're breaking and how they can legally justify "taking your plate".

Is that all you have? Are you a member of the plate taking police squad? Last weekend I was riding with an NC30 in California but they didn't take his plate, according to you he should start worrying after having his bike here for over 10 years.
How shitty of a firstbike would a shaft drive Moto Guzzi?

I'm hoping you're trolling or something. Otherwise I just feel bad for you. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if you didn't have a bike
>>15248379
It must suck being so stupid you can't ever provide backup evidence for you claims. You must be a new rider or spent too much time here considering you assume people are nobike poorfags like you probably were.

>>15248528
More like 1000-1500 miles.
Trail hours/miles are not the same as riding on the road.
Even on a DRZ, if you flog it off the limiter constantly, you should probably change the oil every 500 miles on that too.
>>15248534
how are the mait intervals?

that doesn't sound to bad tbqh I thought they only held like 850ml but I just checked and they hold like 1.1l
>>15248561
Change oil when gearbox feels bad
Check valves when bike gets hard to start
Not really any worse than a DRZ honestly.

I managed to get a salvage title motorcycle re-registered with the DMV here in Cali with some non DOT approved turn signals. The dealer just wrote out in the fact sheet that all four worked as normal (and they do), did a VIN and engine number verification with a bureaucrat and showed the paperwork to the lady behind the counter.
>>15247930
but bro didn't you see how I enlarged kitkat's name so you didn't miss it?
>>15248588
Don't forget a WR450F is an "Off-Road" bike, so they expect it to run high RPM a lot...
If you're just putting along at 6k RPM and under most of the time... you can greatly increase the service intervals.
WR450 revs to 12k rpm, and puts out good power from 4k rpm, so not like you have to rev the thing to go anywhere.

Grom is a perfect bike if you want to only ride in the city. It's a scooter done right. 45 mph speed limit hero. Very small and cute. Can park anywhere there is a slightest hint of empty space. Looks completely natural next to pedalbike rack.

He wants a bigger bike again because he is moving a city over (they have a track and he used to race a lot) . He crashed it going like 10mph stunting like an idiot. some scraches but honestly I'll probably do the ol fingernail touch up on it and it would be near unnoticable.

That's due to its shit design and it burns exhaust valves without them.
>>15248626
Africa Twin if you're limiting yourself to those three. If not I like the looks of the 800s, both BMW and Triumph.
>>15248679
Not that surprised... if it was a single I might be surprised.

I drive an S2000 and an accord, I really like honda but I know their motorcycle's are a different company pretty much. It's going to be my 3rd bike, but my first bike I'm riding in the city. (all previous bikes have been dirt bikes.)

My father owns a vstrom, he complains that it sits really tall. Other than that he loves his.
>>15248702
for a 500cc v twin that shit is dank
>>15248708
He must be a manlet. Mine is great.
>>15248715
According to american average height for men he is a tad taller than the avg and I'm perfectly avg. That said It isn't a tall bike when you're next to it but I could see it being a problem if you're on a weird hill or something.

Meh, it's all about inertia and weight in the valve train.
That Berg motor has no rev-limiter, it'll do 10k RPM or so before the valves float.
I guess push-rods are a pretty big limiting factor though... lots of extra weight to be changing direction.
What is best break in process, mototune, by the book, or ride it like you will ride it?

>I really like honda but I know their motorcycle's are a different company pretty much.
Yeah a better one.
One of the amusing things is that Honda cars are known for gutless VTEC JUST KICKED IN YO engines while Honda bikes usually have the smoothest power band in class.
>>15248776
by the book. i think the engineers know how the engine works.
>>15248776
Ride it like you stole it. Dont cruise at a steady speed. Gives the best ring seating and performance.
>>15248781
You can really feel the vtec in the s2000, the accord not so much.

Most engines are already run in at the factory.
But you won't know that since nobody takes apart a brand new engine.
>>15248739
that berg motor is pretty impressive, but then again it's not a high mileage every day motor with long service intervals

ive been leaning towards the AT because it has the best suspension and price.
also i already have a second gen vstrom 650
and not manlet status so the height isnt an issue on any of them

tiger 800xcx is / h e k t i k /
Any good alternatives to wearing specialty motorcycle safety gear? OR what is the cheapest, lightest, coolest most breathable jacket I could get away with? I use my gutless motorcycle for commuting and errand running, so I don't care to spend 20 minutes getting dressed and undressed everytime I throw a leg over.
Also do they make like kevlar or abrasion resistant underwear? I'm absolutely loathe to wear special $300 florescent motorcycle pants when I commute to work but I recognize people frequently loose a lot of booty meat skidding on their asses during a crash.
I hate wearing gear, but I'm hedging my bets. How to I make the most out of the least amount of money spent or hassle involved?
>>15248832
>being limited by parts and shop availability
i want something that regardless of where i go i can find a shop who stocks or can get parts in short order for the bike.
and jap bikes are notoriously trouble free compared to pretty much all of the euro companies
>>15248838
get some armored overpants and an armored compression jacket for airflow
>>15248838
why don't you just buy used?
>>15248847
where do you live?
>>15248818
The valve train is the only reliable part of the Husaberg motor...
The rods and main bearings are the worst part.
Followed by the piston and cylinder liner.
It's a shame really.
I rebuilt that 550 motor, rode it for 500 km, and decided since I didn't replace the rod, I'd let the next guy do that, and sell it while I can still profit from the bike.
>>15248838
Exactly how long do you think it takes to put a fucking jacket on?
Christ driving a car in the winter is way more work than riding a motorcycle in full gear.

>driving a car in the winter is way more work than riding a motorcycle in full gear
maybe if you drive a car like mine but just no, otherwise.
>>15248859
pnw as always
>>15248869
you definitely can get a lot of parts for a tiger 800xcx in the pnw.
>>15248872
but i dont want one. and my riding will continue to expand to the rest of the country and up into alaska at some point.
triumph has pretty limited support in less populated areas

Most people don't have a garage both at home and at work

Still means having to add extra time before you leave

Because everyone wears snow boots at work right
