is there any serious protective difference between riding suits and racing suits or is it a cosmetic thing? A lot of shops have them as separate categories
Hi /dbt/
I need some advice.
I've been riding small bikes for a long time, but have just started on a Ninja 650.
So far it's great, but my question is this.
Is it big enough to carry pillion? What about for longer distances or high way speeds?
I have noticed every time I do, even riding like a granny, the engine gets much hotter than usual for when I'm riding alone.
Is it a strain on the bike? As in will it cause damage/excessive wear?
Thanks
>>15328687
I've carried a pillion on my Ninja 250 a couple of times, you'll be fine.

>>15328986
I am dude
I know I don't intend to be a hamburger. It wasn't a serious turn on a dime but the freeway was curved but then took a sharper unexpected turn towards the end.
It was honestly probably not that bad but it seemed really intense
>>15329013
First few times on the interstate are definitely a little hair raising, but you'll get used to it quickly. What kind of bike do you have anon? Any pics?
>>15329017
fz07 right? do you mind if i ask, how tall are you, and is the bike comfortable at your height?
>>15329021
MT 07 actually
>>15329017
Sick turbo brah
>>15329024
fuck me. well, thanks anyways
>>15329017
it's a little cbr250
nothing big but I underestimated it completely haha.
I plan on going back tomorrow but yes I definitely got more than a little scared
nice bike btw!
>>15329032
haha get rekt
>>15329024
No that's an FZ-07, it says right under the rear seat/storage area.
>>15329021
I am 6' and about 205-215 lbs somewhere in there. Been getting fat since I left the USAF and putting myself through school.
Anyway I love the "fit" of the bike. I feel very comfortable on the bike and it's very natural feeling while turning. I dislike the super sport and cruiser riding positions though, which a lot of people like so maybe I'm just weird.
The only complaint I *had* about the bike comfort was the wind on my chest at interstate speeds made me feel like I want hanging on the bars for dear life rather than actually riding. My small windshield fixed that problem though.
>>15329040
Remove the fairings or install frame sliders.
>>15329045
How are those niggers any different besides the tc and abs?
>>15329045
fuckin knew it.
little bit wary of buying because i'm 6'4". test driving soon anyways so not a huge deal but i appreciate the input.
>>15329047

>tfw only place I feel happy anymore is on my bike
Even when I'm not planning to ride I'll just sit on it and shitpost.
>>15329045
MT 07 is the correct name
>>15329040
Thanks!
Don't be scared to go on the interstate. I've found that if you look at a corner from a distance it can look more sharp and intimidating than it really is. Once you get into the turn (remember to start on the *outside* of the lane before the turn) you usually relax because you're looking through the turn (meaning the inside of the curve) trying to find the apex point where you turn to the inside of the curve.
That was a terrible explanation but I think you understand.
>>15329056
MT-07 has optional ABS but no TC, and it actually has a less powerful engine. The FZ-07 makes a bit more power and weighs less.
>>15329069
Weird. I tought they were the same besides the lams one.
>>15329059
Keep in mind there are a variety of windshields available for the bike, so if you want to keep the wind blast up higher away from your chest there are options out there. I'd guess 6'4" is a bit on the taller side for the bike, but I've read people online that are your height or taller and they enjoy the bike so I think it's more preference than anything.
Anyone else squidding during the summer heat? It's just too damn hot.
>>15329066
Anon I know what my bike is called. Why are you insisting it's called an MT-07? That's the European designation for the bike with the same frame, but the body, engine, and electronics on the bike are slightly different between the FZ-07 and MT-07.
>>15329076
Why not get an armored mesh jacket? I have one for the summer that I layer under in the winter and I couldn't be happier. I have a waterproof and insulated inner liner for when the temperatures drop and it just unzips to the mesh armored exterior.

For the cost of fancy helmet like that they could've got a whole set of decent leathers. Shame
>>15329045
>>15329017
I just upgraded my FZ-07 with new LEDs and fender eliminator. Looks so much better now. Still have yet to replace the front turn signals though. Laziness is a killer.
>video showing the new LEDs
https://youtu.be/2Xgu3XJHnxU
I'm pretty happy with the results! Huge improvement.
>>15329067
yes I was practicing my cornering on my way home since I took the windy backstreets. It was really fun! mostly because there was nobody on the road haha.
I'll definitely apply that to my run tomorrow so thanks.
the Fz-07 is actually my "graduation" bike for when I get used to riding. I've had mine for 2 weeks now but the heat has only recently let me go out.
I sat on the Fz-07 when I went window shoppingfor bikes and I fell in love with it bro. so comfy and perfect.

Serious question. What are the vents for behind the seat to the sides? Seems like it'd just limit your little passenger seat storage area for no reason. The vents go to the tail light from the looks of it and I can't figure it out.

It's useless

It's like cars that have fake vents going to the brakes. It just looks cheap if there's no purpose for it.
Like a wing spoiler on a '90s Civic hatchback. What's the point? Only reason to put it on is because some people think it looks cool for no reason.

What happened to enclosed chains? They seemed at least relatively common prior to the early 2000s, and now have vanished entirely except for scooters.
Is there some practical drawback to them? Are they just considered 'unstylish'?

Try again.
The real question is, why do you accuse others of being CTA when you are him yourself?
>>15329546
more like 115 at the wheels.
No driveshaft incurs a 30% loss, not even 4WD and this is only one differential gear as well.
>>15329532
>spyder
>cool
Yep, you are a faggot.
>>15329552
Because you are CTA.
It's not an accusation when it's the truth. If you weren't him you wouldn't be this defensive or trying to pass the buck this much.
>>15329563
>If you weren't him you wouldn't be this defensive or trying to pass the buck this much.

You've made your bed, now you need to sleep in it.
30% loss is pretty standard for cars. the exact numbers vary. My brz (when stock) is 147kw at the crank and 110kw at the wheels, though after the turbo im on 185kw at the wheels

What sucks is that you can't cut belts down to size (at least not with current belts) and they're wider.
Which isn't to say chains haven't improved in the last 20 years either.
>>15329508
Aesthetics won over I suppose. I'm pretty sure they're still used in some model in Southeast Asia or anywhere in that general direction.

Thats the thing, an X ring chain does not need a constant oil bath because the rings trap oil so weight can be removed from the bike be getting rid of the enclosed casing for the chain.
>>15329613
O-ring/X-Ring chain retail lubricant inside the chain. But they do fuck-all to prevent dirt accumulating on the chain and sprockets. Enclosing the drivetrain prevents wear from grinding shit between contacting surfaces, and from shit being shoved down into the sealing rings as the chain moves and the seals rotate.
>>15329625
then put a case around your chain, don't be autistic to me about them its not like chains cost more than $150 to buy
