man you fucked that up lol.

Electronics pro, motorcycle noob here,
Anyone who has a helmet communicator how does it talk to other helmets? I know they have bluetooth for connecting to your phone but how does it broadcast to other people? Im looking to figure out what frequencies / bands it works on and if it is like CV or whatever. Thanks :)

The Empulse kind of interests me. The Zero bikes don't have any clutch or shifter at all, yet the Empulse does. Though apparently you don't have to clutch in all the time, and you can start in any gear from a dead stop.

What was it like to ride?

>>13980638
Umm you're wrong. it has a 6 speed transmission.

It felt a little under powered, but I'm used to my FZ09 now so if it doesn't try to rip me off the seat it feels sluggish.

It's compact too. Would be good for smaller riders and despite the weight I could throw it around pretty easily. They took a lot of time getting the balance point right on it.

Much better to ride than the Zeros

Good gear although I dislike the company in general as they wish to lower the standards for things like CE certified armor.

Try all the brands you can get your hands on.

>whole gear setups

why not

>wearing riding suit anywhere but on track

totally fine, where I live most riders do that, only a retard would have a problem with it.

Thats really surprising since they make so many solid pieces of armored gear. Their armored shorts and jackets are super nice.

>Whole gear setups from the same company (jacket and pants, suit, gloves, boots, unders etc)
I'm more of a mix-and-match kinda guy. Although 3 pieces of gear ended up being A*.

>Wearing riding suit anywhere but on track
One-piece suits no, seems too inconvenient if you plan on doing anything but riding.
Two-piecers yes.

It depends on the base bike, 450? not really. They require far too constant maintenance (every 800km) and have some fragility about them in stuff like the gearbox, the lower stress the engine like a 690 KTM, dr-z400, XR650R, WR250X etc.

Just don't get a CRF250L

>>13980752
the engine. a compression stroke takes a good amount of torque to move.

>>13980764
didn't finish my thought, the lower stress the engine the better. Check the manuals for service intervals.

IMO motards are weekend bikes not dailies, but it's fine if you get one of the lower stress bikes.

>>13980753
You could cut one of those end pipes off, paint it, put some fucking retard company name on them and sell them for $300.

So you could technically move the tires with enough strength while it's in gear? How does compression keep the piston from moving easily?

Here the KLX, CRF, WR RMX, EXC 450 are all road legal.

You're essentially trying to squish some air inside a container.

>How does compression keep the piston from moving easily?

Because you're trying to compress air.

>>13980771
CRF250L has a spaghetti frame, they bend in at the frame if you drop one on a rock out on a trail or on the road, I saw one bend the frame in at the peg when it was dropped on concrete and he showed me the other side and it had been bent in there too.

Over here once your frame is fucked the bike is fucked and basically impossible to re-register.

Can someone tell me what happens at local bike meet / rides. I'm pretty autistic and feel uncomfortable making conversations with new people. I love riding though. It's hard to tell on the local fb group what goes down. I'd like it if its just pull up at a certain time then all go cruise and fuck off after a while, but I'm worried we will have to ride somewhere then sit and talk for a hour.
I think it would be a good way for me to meet people though since I lost all my friends because I decided to go clean.

Then the next day you'll get a message on facebook from Guido T. Thunderfuck along the lines of:

Hit some gravel coming out of the parking lot of my work and lowsided.

Shit was embarrassing.

Rasputin the scooterfaggot here, got a few things to say

You guys kind of convinced me a few things, next year i'm going to china for a few years to tech English if i can't get a real job in Australia, i'll keep my scoot till then because i'll be scooting around Chinese cities on fake Hondas if i go. but if i get a real job and end up in Melbourne, I'll get a full motorcycle licence and get a 250cc bike

either way, once i am in melbs, i'll get a 250cc real motorbike and maybe a small scooter as well. I got a scoot for the practicality, but it's so much damned fun that i want to be able to go faster than 80kph (got it up to 95 going down hill today)

Or i could get a 250cc scooter with big wheels... nah, real bike. scoots are fun and easy to ride, but they are mostly just fun and put a smile on my face, and motorbikes are apparently even more fun.

Also

>tell /o/ i ride with visor up

Thanks guys, i was being really stupid not having the visor down.

I don't know how you lasted with your visor up. I use to ride with my visor up cause I was dumb enough to put my helmet in the trunk of my car...scratched the visor so bad.

Because I've been riding only a week, usually at sub 60kph

>>13981607
It'll be a while until i get a real motorbike, won't do it until i have a real job and my own place, but that sounds like a good idea, it'll be some beat up second hand bike and i can see a few of them on bikesales for cheap.

I also plan to put a top box on whatever motorbike i get, i like storage space.

>Tfw gear should be here Monday

A clean bike is a happy bike. But I hate that it gets dark out so quickly here in Arizona nowadays. Probably see something I miss tomorrow and I'll get pissed off for missing it. Or doubly so I should say, I'm already pissed at seeing a few drops of oil that looked like it dripped off the vent hoses. Was going to a local shop's classic bike show tomorrow and saw that crap. I don't think it's anything too severe, oil level was just fine, but am curious why it looks like it dripped off the vent hoses. She's an old bike 29 year old bike with roughly 55k or so miles so it's to be expected, especially since she had signs of being abused before I got her.

So, full faced helmets or dual sport helmets?

Talked to my buddy at the bike shop yesterday. His brand new R1 has a recall for the transmission. No ride, no sale .

TFW, he is still making payments on a high that might spontaneously lock up the transmission.

>>13980722
Funny thing. My dad was 400 pounds at one point, still rode his hotted-up Suzuki TL-1000R absolutely everywhere in the summer. The rest of his riding club couldn't keep up, the second-fastest guy had a bone-stock CBR750 if memory serves. Was hilarious watching him win street drags and blow the whole group away on every highway run. He was always looking to beef up the bike a bit more, always found it a little too slow off the line, even at full go. Always trying new tires, exhaust work, ratio-tweaking, anything to get a bit more kick out of it.

When he started losing weight, every single day he rode the bike for a solid month, he got a speeding ticket, or at least a warning. He couldn't believe how fucking fast that bike was now that it wasn't carrying literally double its weight (the bike weighs 420-something dry).

Now that he's burned it off, he's just terrifyingly quick absolutely everywhere.

>>13982612
There is no "ideal" engine size for beginners. You can't really measure how good a bike is for beginners solely by displacement because it leaves out literally all the information you need to work out what bike is best for you.

>See: RGV250 is a terrible idea for a rider with no experience, whereas an FZ6R is much more appropriate.

You should hold on to your first bike until you "know" you're ready for something else (i.e. 1.5-2 years after you bought it).

Knowing when you're ready to move up isn't when you "get bored" of whatever you're on, for the record. You might be able to max it out in a straight line, but I guarantee you won't be able to scrape pegs with correct body positioning for a long while after you get your first bike.
