he put a rear tire on the front. He should have at least had the sense to mount it backwards
>>15388023
Why?
>>15388030
>look mum i posted it again
>>15388026
Front tires usually have the tread facing the opposite way. I can't explain the reason but I pretty much all street bike front tires have their tread grooves pointing towards the rear.
>>15388043
I never understood that in general, would think that would direct water to in front of the wheel instead of moving it out of the way
I really want a pair of boots but they're expensive
>>15388047
Maybe because it might cause water to be pushed under the wheel while turning?
>>15388052
A pair of good boots is like €100-150
>>15388047
Probably because cornering traction needs to be maximized. You don't want to lean the bike over and suddenly be hydroplaning
>>15388043
Front tire needs to be able to stop the bike. Rear tires job is to propel it forward. So they both need maximum grip/structural integrity for opposite directions.
>>15388054
>>15388059
then why does the rear tyre tread go the opposite direction?
>>15388043
It's for traction, duh.
>most important traction for front tire = braking = thread to rear
>most important traction for rear = acceleration = thread to front
Mounting your front wheel the same way as the rear is supposed to go improves wear resistance but hinders grip when braking or slowing down, also makes it hydroplane easier.
Mounting your rear tire the way your front tire is supposed to go makes it skid under acceleration and worsens wear but improves resistance to hydroplaning, grip and braking
I always get different answers on this:
What's a stickier tire, the Pilot Power or Pilot Power 2CT?
I had originally thought the 2CT was just a Power with a harder center compound, but it seems like it may have a softer compound on the sides instead.
>>15388075
The 2CT is mostly the same as the normal PP but the edges are slightly softer. Most people never even lean the bike far enough to get to the softer compound.

>>15388114
No backpack, it's fucking annoying having a backpack on log rides.
The hoodie is superficial, and you can get a cheaper jacket.
Also digging with your hand is more fun
>>15388141
Not hard to strap a backpack to your bike then put it on your back when you want to get off.
>>15388145
Yeah you don't need an alpinestar riding backpack for that.

also that's just the "if i had money" list. I'm making a "what I actually need" list now.

>>15388150
You do if you want to be a walking meme like wranon.
>>15388153
Make it a "what I need for SEM" list. That is your only priority right now.

>implying the shovel wouldn't be needed at the SEM
I'm looking for a new helmet, is there a rating for noise isolation?
On the sharp rating website there's nothing mentioned about it.
>>15388052
Find some on sale. I got a 300$ pair for under 60$ yesterday
>>15388179
W-where?
>>15388176
Not that I 'm aware of. I know Schuberth are pretty well known for quiet helmets.
>>15388185
Local cycle gear.
Also got a couple sets of gloves and helmet for the grill. They always have something on sale
>>15388190
Yeah but they're also butt expensive.
>>15388193
>being poor.
Why tho
>>15388056
Also the pair that I want is a touring model, but I'm afraid they might be too hindering.
And road boots are so much cheaper... but I don't like them ;_;
>>15388162
I did, now at 714€
if I ditch the tires and the new carbs the bike or me may die at the SEM but I'd save a lot of money.
will look where I can save now.
>>15388176
even if your helmet is 'quiet' you are still damaging your ears if you dont have earplugs
>>15388167
>>15388163
Ok vote for me

>>15388216
>>15388208
Do you really need new tires and carb? What are your tires like?
I was looking at my tires earlier and they still have enough tread but they're squared, showing minor cracks and over seven years old so I'm thinking it would be best to replace them.
>>15388218

>>15388226
im not. helmets cant protect your ears from the pressure.
>>15388226
>implying he's not right
>>15388235
B-but money
>>15388218
Initially left but boots on right seem to have the same level of protection plus toe sliders. Who needs ratchet straps on their boots anyway?
> tfw you will never ride around on a naked Busa wearing a cool scifi helmet and bringing your .50 cal with you in case of stubborn cagers
>>15388231
I'm not sure about the carbs, but it seems like it's leaking a little bit from somewhere. And these carbs would also mean more power.
I don't know how old my tires are, I looked at them a few days ago but I forgot already.
>>15388242

Just kill me now.
On the plus side, have all Thursday to ride twisties. Nogfanymore feels have been replaced by fuckthatbitchifshewantsotherpeoplesdicksIllfindvaginasformyselfaswell feels. </blog>
Now vote, where do I ride on Thursday to potentially kill myself on the toegay.
> twisties to the east that I already know + explore some new ones there
> twisties to the north that I sort of know because I went there once with the car a month ago
> twisties to the south that may or may not be twisty I haven't explored yet
> to the west where Street Triple anon knows what's up
Last option only applies if ST guy has time.

I need some help for my son
I'm a motorcycle enthusiast, and I've been grooming my son to be one as well, and although I am well versed in my own European laws, my son lives in Georgia and I have no idea how their laws work. I want to get him a 49cc cagiva mito, however I don't know of that specific 49cc would fall under moped or mini bike because of its class, or if it would be treated as a full blown cycle. I'm trying to make sense of the laws right now but I don't really get them, so could anyone clear up this little conundrum for me? Would I be able to get him this bike or would I have to settle for a Vespa or something like that
>>15388277
Fuck everything and come to sem, you don't have a gf anymore, you don't need plans for the future.
>>15388255
just buy a sealing kit for your carbs for now, you can get a new carb later
>>15388218
Gortex Alpinestars.
>>15388284
The gf wasn't the reason why I am not going to SEM. I need a new place because fuck flatsharing, I want a new PC (6 year old ALDI Laptop is shit), license upgrade, full leathers, CBF600, track days brah and a Miata.
Will definitely save moneys to come to SEM next year again, even if it means delaying new bike / track days / Miata plans. But PC is urgent now and flat even more so.
But maybe I'll ride down to Cologne for a long weekend and get hookers with WR anyways ;^)
>pls kill me
>>15388283
Get him something that cant be plated, like a 80cc dirtbike or something like that.
>>15388288
I guess you'r eright, I don't ride the TT that long so I don't need more power yet.
>>15388277

Could be worse, not a fan of those headlights tho
>>15388305
All of my keks
>>15388218
looks like you're comparing off-road boots to roadrace boots. You'll likely find the left to be stiffer, bulkier, taller, heavier, and generally less practical if you ever need to walk around in them off the bike. However they should be more protective for your feet, ankles, and lower legs
>>15388291
Even more expensive and I' don't like 'em
>>15388305
>>15388317

>>15388438
>implying mv anons bike would even work properly

>>15388535
I have no idea, can i buy them individually or what?
>>15388528
I survived 20 years without it, and I don't feel the need to do so, so I think yes. I will survive at least another 20 years without doing so.
>>15388538
Generally you have to buy packs. Also if your rims are that rekt you should just get new wheels all together. Better ones.
Or you could do the long hard thing and find where you can buy some spokes and then learn how to install them.
>>15388541
I betcha 100€ you'll be with someone by 30
>>15388546

>>15388553

Ok. Shouldn't be too hard to deal with. Go into your local yamaha dealer and tell them your issue and ask where you can get spokes. Or you can use mr google

How do I buy a motorcycle from a private seller? If I give the seller cash and take the bike they could say I stole it and never received payment. I hate cutting paper. Explain like I'm a moron. Can I ride it home? In what order do I get the title/tag/insurance? I live in Florida. Thanks!

It was 4 bolts on my radiator. Are you sure it's the fan itself though and not the relay?
Check all that shit before you assume it's the motor. You should also be able to jump the connection that turns on the fans to see if your temp sensor is bad.

I couldn't find a used 500 near me so I settled for the 400 new. Thanks for the tip.
Looked the routes I might take, I probably will go something like this.
It's at least 3 days riding without taking highways, I thought it was 2.
>>15388816
Next time don't try to shove them into your ass.
>>15388810
Yup. It's sort of a pain right now but pretty soon I'll be used to it. It would be nice to have the option for an electric start though.

>>15388833
Yeah I mean I get the appeal of making a classic looking bike, I love how it looks and my girlfriend really likes it, but the kickstart really is a bummer. Generally it wouldn't be a problem, but say you stall in traffic or something, it'd be a major pain in the dick to get started compared to an electric start.

It makes something to the tune of 40hp. It's plenty for a beginner bike and usable enough. Shit, I passed a CBR1000R on the outside of a corner on this pos and it only makes 33hp stock, and I was missing my left cylinder at the time.

I have 85hp with 250kg wet, I don't think it's that bad.
Why even ride a motorcycle? If you crash, you are probably gona die. They just seem really death trappy.
>>15388962
Yeah it's a shame there aren't many bikes from the factory that look so good, the new Kawasaki Z900 has a classic looking version that looks super cool, I'll be keeping an eye on it for sure.
Other than that, the only bike I can think of with classic looks with decent performance is the R Nine T.
>>15388973
maybe for a tourer, but the XJR1300 racer is definitely not that
>>15388977
you only live once
>>15388973
What bike is that?
Also I'm not saying it's terrible, I'm running 196kg and 47hp and it's enough for a bit of fun, but more would be nice.
>>15388977
why even step out of the door? if you get hit by a car, you are probably going to die
>>15388985
No you don't

>Kawasaki Z900
i'm hearing about this for the first time now. from your picture alone, what really stands out to me is the engine casing/intake which doesn't fit at all to the rest of the bike
>R Nine T
you're probably right, although the boxer engine with the aggressive looking fins doesn't fit into the whole classic/vintage thing as well. although it is the most powerful of them
>>15388988
same here, 191 kg wet and 48 hp makes for some decent fun, but there's always more
Wew
>>15388969
This is just annoying.

>what really stands out to me is the engine casing/intake which doesn't fit at all to the rest of the bike
Could be because of the supercharger. Which lets me forgive that.
And with the R Nine T, I guess the engine does break the shape up a little bit, a version with a smaller displacement engine based on the S1000R block would be awesome, maybe a same design engine but a 600, with the classic design.

>R1150GS
Well that's different then, whilst it's a bike that you can get some speed on, it's no ta bike that gives the impression of being a fast machine, whereas if you're gonna give a bike a retro racer look, and even call it a 'Racing' model, it'd be nice if they either put it on a diet, or beefed up the engine.
>>15389028
like this? i saw that bike live and it's amazing
>>15388981
Triumph to the rescue again.

Do you have your license yet?
>>15389078
since about a week or so, yes.
>>15389040
Damn that looks good.
Yeah something like that, or this which is an R Nine T. Though I don't know why they didn't keep the upside down forks.
>>15389125
yeah it looks amazing. probably my most favourite custom bike
>>15389139
It does look good. Honda are revamping the CB1100 (though I imagine it'll be just like the XJR1300 Racer), but it'd be cool if they got on the retro train.
>mfw 9/10 people who ask what bike you ride have never heard of it before

well what bike is it?
>>15389164
It's Eye-talian, you've probably never heard of it before.

18 y/o student here, I don't browse /o/ much at all but it's now time for me to get some way of moving around and I found a Lexmoto ZSX 124cc bike up for £375 over autotrader. It's done 17,024 miles, and I haven't checked up on what the insurance might be yet - but from these figures, do you guys think it's worth it?
In addition, what are some common problems I should look for when I go to investigate it? I'm a complete beginner to biking, and I haven't even taken a CBT yet.
>>15389210
It depends on how long you plan being on a 125. If you're just gonna ride it for a month whilst you get your test, go for it, if you plan on riding any longer, spend more on a better bike, as that thing will fall apart very quickly.
Good night /dbt/.
>>15389210
Do your CBT first, buy the bike second.

Night yuropoor
Thinking of getting a Yamaha R3 this week, good beginner bike?
>>15389298
If you're not a total idiot you should just get a litre bike. Don't fall for the beginner bike meme.
>>15389298
buy used
>>15389298
Yep, pretty much perfect. Fast enough to have fun, slow enough to give you thinking time as you progress.
As >>15389298 said, buy used if you can.
>>15389307
Are you buying it for your nephew? :^)
