I'm looking for a first bike and being 17 in the UK I can only get a 125CC, I'm thinking about getting the Lexmoto Venom SE as it's only £1449.99 ($2046.65 USD) and has a two year warranty. Would it be worth buying bearing in mind that I'll probably be moving onto a 300CC when I turn 19 in 2 years? I'll only really be using it to get from home to college/ work.

Don't buy a new chinese bike, get a used japanese bike like a wr125, yzf r125, or the fz125 for cheaper, they'll be much more reliable and hold their resale value.

Take YBR125 and relax

>>14707069
law says you can only ride a 125... Ahahaha you little euro faggot I got my motorcycle licence when I was 16 and was driving my dad's gsxr 750 the same day. How does it feel to be from the biggest pussy nation in the world.

Vinyl vanished and came back for connoisseurs.
Will Manuel come back at some point?
Will "open source" cars or home assembly car KITs become a trend?

not until american media and safety regs change
>>
>>14706596
This. Although less with media and more with regulations. The media are all about cloud this and download that, yet vinyl is having a resurgence. However, there are no regulations in the music industry (that I know of) making vinyl records harder to produce with ease, whereas the auto industry is riddled with them.

Yes, but in super-expensive limited editions, like the Porsche 911 R (which brings back Porsche's 6-speed).

Alright, so I'm looking at a '03 4runner at a stealership.
A rod broke in my Jeep's engine, and I'm looking at a replacement around the same size, weight, etc.
It's fully stock except the Sony head unit, 127XXX, new tires, will need brakes and the rear window motor, both I can DIY.
Dealer is asking 9/9.5k, will possibly take the jeep as a trade in for a few hundred.

Any anons with experience with these "trucks"? Car fax reports one accident in 2006, I could not visibly see any bending or cracks in the frame. The engine is crazy quiet at idle, no shutters or ticks/knocks.

Someone please explain the fascination with rev limiters. Especially factory examples. Double especially civic drivers. WHY is it necessary to spend 10 seconds hitting the limiter between gear shifts? Anything other than retarded?

Because it's fun to rev it up like bam bam bam bam then select d for maximum respect

Bouncing off the limiter wastes time.
Maybe some people like the sound? I don't know what to say.
>>
Off the top of my head, I don't know any "super car" that doesn't leave manual shifting in sport modes. Maybe some that have an additional dial for gearchange options. Though I can't think of one of those either. That's more a GT car thing.
HOLY SHIT WHAT ARE ALL THESE FUCKING FAGGOT ASS FLIES THAT SWARM MY CAR EVERY FUCKING SPRING I CAN'T EVEN OPEN MY GOD DAMN DOOR WITHOUT 10 OF THE TINY WINGED NIGGERS GETTING IN MY CAR AND LEAVING THEIR FLY CUM AND FLY CORPSES EVERYWHERE SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK JESUS FUCK THESE FUCKING SHITHEADS ARE ALMOST AS RETARDED AND ANNOYING AS HONDA OWNERS GOD DAMN I'M FUCKING MAD ALSO I HAVE NO RELEVANT IMAGES SAVED ON MY LAPTOP AND AM TOO LAZY TO FIND ONE SO HAVE THIS FUCKING FAGGOT DINOSAUR

There is an easy fix for that. All you need to do is buy a couple pounds of baloney cut thin. Put the pieces all over your car and let it sit for 24-48 hours. Bugs hate baloney because of certin enzymes in it. Your car will smell like baloney until you drive it on the highway. Then you won't be able to smell it but the bugs will because they have better senses. Youre welcome OP

New on auto so bare with me.
What is your opinion on "affordable sports cars" such as the Golf R, Honda Civic Type R and so on. Fun or not? I recently drove a Golf R 2016, gotta say it has a nice sound to it, comfortable and so on.
Yay or nay?

For the same price I can buy a much more interesting (fuck faster or not) used car. Probably even with really low mileage, seeing what popped up every now and then recently. Some really good shit for that kinda money.
So...Don't care.

>>14704003
Those are hot hatches. Affordable sports cars are the 86 and miata, and kit cars.

Hey /o/tists, as much of a nightmare it is to own one of them, why am I still attracted to a jaguar XJS V12, and why do I have the desire to put a 5 or 6 speed manual in them??

How do you eat nugs in your car? Is there a special sauce holder or do you double fist it? It's always a challenge to shift while you eat and I wanted to see /o/s filthy greasy fingered solutions.
