every now and then people float the idea of using something else and it seems like that usually spurs the owner(s?) into a spurt of activity and we end up continuing with what we have.

I've seen some decent suggestions of existing map app/services that fit what we need and some hand-rolled things people have made specifically for this, but unfortunately can't remember names atm.

here's hoping people who have some ideas/preferences about maps post them in this thread for some feedback instead of something getting slapped in the OP of next thread randomly

The real question is why do you autist worry about the map so much

Repainted my exhausts and currently doing tank (sorry for phonepost pic), and also doing some carb work.

While everything's taken apart, I've decided to do some cleaning. I've decided to replace some old hoses and shit, but what's the best way to clean the 'engine bay' without damaging electronics? Can I just unplug battery and hose the internals down provided all intakes are sealed, or will the leftover water minerals and shit cause shorts even after its dried?

What do you guys think?
Would be my first bike so I just want to make sure I'm not overlooking some glaring flaw.
KBB says it's an '01 SV650 is worth 1850 in excellent condition which this is not, but it is KBB.
Would 1700 be too low?
Am poorfag so I don't have a ton of dosh to toss around.

I wish KLRs weren't so much.

>>17449498
I would check it out, find a couple (not nitpicky) flaws and go slightly below the max you're willing to pay, then haggle and 'give in' to your max.

It does look pretty decent, ad poster doesn't seem to be trying any bullshit. Go for it.

Do you guys prefer japanese brands because you are weeaboos or is there actually something about them that you genuinely like?

I know it's been reposted, but I never got an explanation for how a highly trained europeon who has suffered through graduated licensing is worse at riding than an american newbie who hopped right onto a 600 after doing a cone weave.

Aren't those commies supposed to be keeping the shit riders off bikes so they don't die and stop paying taxes?

>>17449640
It's because they actually think about the mechanics a bit more than not at all. They try to make their shit reliable, they try to make their shit simple to work on, and they compete with each other.

Riding school teaches you how to prevent panic situations, not how to deal with panic situations when you actually get into them.
And man, you must not have been to YouTube, ever. The number of American riders that can't even take a gentle curve is staggering. I am thinking about that one from r*ddit in particular, on his NInja 300, who absolutely couldn't not go straight into a field and drop his bike.

There are 9 exercises and they are all easy as shit.
http://www.fahrlehrerverband-berlin.de/pdf_formulare/Strategiepapier.pdf
TL;DR most of them are at 30 km/h, the evasion manoeuvres and emergency braking start at 50 and the rest is walking pace.
I was more referring to them not teaching proper BP, where to look when you're panicking, and not to brake in corners. Sure, they TELL you about that stuff, but you never get a chance to practice it if you're just trying to get through the courses and to get your license. 45 minute lessons cost like 50 € each and even then instructors won't risk their bikes by intentionally getting students into hairy situations.

YOU are a pathetic little /dbt/ chisame sniffing numale

you are LITERALLY seething right now because you KNOW that CHISAME time and time have been exposed as a pathetic tryhard

YOU have been shaken to the core by the FACT that Onsa is superior and compounded your precious chisame into the dust.

Instead of facing the truth that you are an irredeemable turd, YOU have followed up posted a series of reddit gold posts in a desperate attempt to save face, except all it's achieved is making YOU look even more pathetic than before.

It's over. YOU cannot recover from this. Every time YOU see a post related to Onsa Amano, YOU will become deeply troubled as you remember the verbal beatdown YOU have received everyday since the introduction of chisame. YOUR heart will begin to race and the blood will pump through YOUR body, and YOU'LL make another similarly flustered post, which will only further diminish YOUR standing in /dbt/

Reminder that we're in YOUR head. Reminder WE control you now, you little fucking bitch. Every reaction that YOU make is a calculated, planned reaction by US.

Whether you choose to foolishly reply, or ignore the posts like a little bitch again, YOUR status amongst /dbt/ is forever STAINED.

There is no way out. YOU have NEVER met anyone as dedicated as the autists in this general, and THEY WILL dedicate all of THEIR attention to wiping YOU off the face of this board.

Keep on digging your own grave though, you LITERAL piece of shit.

I look forward to your furious reply, which I will NOT be reading.

h-how is that possible? shouldn't the aircooled bike be way less powerful? the engine is only marginally larger and in the same insurance bracket and the bike is quite a bit lighter because it doesn't have watercooling.

>going to be doing test in unfamiliar roads

Is this a bad idea?

>>17450332
Not really. If my memory serves me right a lot of the reason behind moving to watercooling are emissions. Watercooled engines have a narrower window of operating temperatures and therefore more predictable emissions control. Watercooling doesn't do much for power unless an aircooled equivalent would overheat in the same situation.

>“Everything about our original line of motorcycles, including our elegant filigree logo, was created with women in mind, but it’s 2017, and there’s no reason not to have a bike for the guys as well,” said CEO Matthew Levatich, adding that while men often admire the performance of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, they generally can’t imagine actually owning something so frilly and feminine themselves. “We were hesitant because the name ‘Harley-Davidson’ is so synonymous with women that any rebrand seemed impossible, but when men get a look at this Harley—in black or silver, not hot pink—they’re going to want to get their hands on one, the same way the ladies have since we were founded in 1903.”

I was just riding muh Grom out in the rain and entered a roundabout. Everything was fine up until I decided to exit it where the back wheel started thrashing from side to side and decided to slide itself forward ahead of my front wheel. My friend says it might have been due to diesel on the road. What do you lads think? I thought it might have been because I was riding it too hard or something.

>>17450591
going WOT in a turn on wet road no less

>>17450591
When the rear slides out it means you're being too aggressive on the gas. You should have started on a 50cc to be safe.

>>17450591
>until I decided to exit
Did you go WOT or something? If anything exiting the roundabout should make your bike stand up and has less chance of slipping.

>>17450409
Honda XRR is a perfect example

>>17450481
Depending on exact schedule and how much leave I have, I might swing by to sperg for a bit on my way down to FL from Iowa. I don't think I'm quite ready for quite that distance on my Stronk but at worst I'll be in my MX-5.

>>17450633
>>17450409
Any YZ490 and all other attempts at air cooled race bikes.

>>17450604
Don't think I did. I would say 50%. The bike would have stood up if the back didn't suddenly decide to go all weird just before then.

>>17450645
If it was concrete then it was probably just slick from wear and contaminants.

Anyone know of a company that will ship my motorbike from the UK to the Netherlands?

what exams are you doing in june/july?

>>17450716
I'm pretty sure motorcycles are not the focus at all of Rolling Girls.

is speeding bad? like 20mph over the limit?

>>17450567
Not exactly sure... If it's too much there is other food in the area.

>>17450548
U can make it Anon

>>17450638
The vstrom is a touring bike, if you can't make it on that then I don't know what more you need
No issues tho, there's plenty of parking even if you bring a car.

>>17450535
Hope ull be there Indian anon

>>17450740
Depends on where you are.
On the interstate, it's fine. In a school zone, kys squid

>>17450740
depends on the traffic and surrounding environment
I don't do it where kids may be or when there's an uncomfortable amount of cars on the road

>>17450732
i see i cant find any other biking animes at all. btw what are motorcylist think about cyclists. i think they'reinferior

>>17450732

No.
Bobby's In Deep is about motorcycles but it's a short film.

My shoulders for some reason get to feeling tight/shitty after about four hours or so. I probably should take more frequent breaks, but that's usually also after wrangling the thing on gravel and dirt.

>>17450765
i feel you i hate parties especially when there are no good mates around

>>17450765
Parties, bars, and dance halls are too much noise for me, usually.

>>17450765
You must have a slow shit bike.
Everytime I go there are girls who want to go for a ride

>>17450778
slow yes, not really a shit bike. It was also a shit party anyway, the clam/ham ratio was out of wack.

>>17450765
Last time I went to a party I was 15 or something.

for someone who has never ridden a motorcycle in their life, how hard is it? I really want to get one.

>>17450729
>Fz1
Slightly more power
Better for touring
Comfy
Much better suspension
>fz09
TORQUE
Wheelie at will
Better powerband

Can't go wrong with either but Id pick the fz1 if you do long trips or enjoy the twisties often.
