I can't afford a Go-Pro.

I have an old Panasonic SDT 750 laying around.

Can I just duct tape that to the side of my helmet?

thoughts on supermotos?
I personally love them

>>14892017
Once I buy a car I'll be probably getting rid of the DR650 and getting a WR250X or a DRZ400SM with a big bore kit.

Unless you are riding REALLY hard you should stick to the stock wheels. It's basically rice for dirt bikes.

You'll likely find both of those more boring than the DR650. If you're going to get rid of the DR you might as well replace it with something exciting like the Beta he pictured, or any other 450.

The thing is helmet cam footage sucks unless it's recorded in wide angle. Helmets just move around so much, and a narrow FOV makes it appear even more shaky when watching the video.

and to think its on an old canon powershot camera.

>>14892030
get a plated trail bike, both of those bikes you mentioned are less powerful than the 650 and neither are significantly lighter or more nimble for the loss of power.

>>14892032
It's cheaper if you're using it on-road a lot. I didn't bother taking the knobbies off the DR and they've balded in a ridiculously short amount of time from commuting.
>>14892048
I would get a 450 if their maintenance schedule wasn't so bad. I'm a lazy motherfucker and would prefer not having to replace my oil every week. I commute on my bike, so I really want it available at all times without having to work on it.

>>14892048
true I am currently looking into a wr450 or, go crazy and get a ktm690?

living in SoCal with an SV650, going to be moving to Flagstaff

anything I should know about living in an environment that snows?

i was thinking about getting a supermoto/dual sport, but my SV is well maintained and has some tasteful aftermarket upgrades

how to ride in the rain/snow?

Not if you get an actual supermoto. Real sport/supermoto tires cost $100+ each and last only like 3k miles. Plus the maintenance schedule of the actual "super" motards is more expensive than a normal dual sport. And you have to consider the hundreds of dollars spent for the 17" wheels.

You can get non-knobbies for the stock wheels. Dual sport tires can be had for less than $60 each, and I bet they will still be far more capable than you are, especially when commuting. Just slap some 80/20 tires on your DR.

>source
I converted a dual sport to "supermoto" (wheels, tires, brakes, etc.). Got hektik. Went back to dual sport tires. Still ride just as fast on street and even more so on trails.

Anybody have those pics of that anon that got frost bite on his dick because he was riding in the cold.

I follow a few local groups on fb that do get togethers and group rides. It's pretty cool. Since riding season is coming up so will a bunch of events

>>14892110
Put them on and try riding it. You'll know if you still need to upgrade to sportier tires.

Also if you want your bike to turn in a bit faster you can drop the triple clams down on the forks a few mm.

ridden a dr-z with a 440 kit, not that spesh.

I'd get a 660 or 640 LC4 KTM if I were you.

I rode an XR650R and that was fantastic too but they carry a pretty heavy meme tax around NSW (so do bloody dr-z's though)

>>14892121
>>14892121
dam son how long are your legs? That bike looks pretty small on you.

>>14892121
660SMC right? Are they actually any good on the dirt? Even if I don't ride dirt very often I still need a bike that's capable on more technical stuff. Are the LC4s really as bullet-proof as everyone claims?

>>14892119
Can i do that on a standard bike?

>>14892155
Dropping the front and/or jacking the back is a time honored way of improving turn-in. Back in the bias-ply days, a narrower front rim (with the same size tire) is another way, but you can't do that with radials.

>>14892155
yeah, but you'll probably run into issues like shaking or ground clearance. engineers spent years working on getting your motorcycle's geometry right. best not to fuck with it

>>14892155
best thing to do is to put sporty tyres on it if you want it to turn faster.

They make a difference.

>>14892168
fuck is this shit
never in my life seen someone get off their bike like that cuckold way

>>14892201
They also designed it to be adjustable in that way. You can just mark where they were originally and try moving them some. If it's bad then you can adjust it back to stock.

Rode a 190cc CT110 once. Scary as shit.

Got the left indicator working on the MC22. Stripped the wire and re-terminated it into the connector with a pair of pliers and a bottle opener. Tr00 Aussie electrical work.

Front brakes and brake light switch are working now too.

Rear brakes still aren't working and there's a problem with the switch but I think I've isolated where the problem is. Hoping to check it out today or tomorrow.

Street tires exist for the stock wheel sizes.

the 183 in a grom is about perfect, it handles it well.

This thing Anima 190 in a pitbike with a normal length swingarm and 12 inch wheels was stupid, it's not even that particularly fast (maybe about as fast as a stock dr-z400SM?) but it was just dodgy, it was not really designed to handle that speed or power, it was fucked.

The CT110 was a YX170 bored out to 190cc if I remember. If you haven't ridden a CT110 they weigh about 83kg (182lbs), have drum brakes, and feel sketchy at 60kph (37mph).

Now up the power from 7hp to 27hp and keep the rest of the bike the same.

Women aren't worth it, anon.
More so women with problems aren't worth it. Thinking that you can "save" someone is literally the worst thing you can do in life to fuck yourself up. People with problems are fucking parasites. You aren't helping them, you're volunteering to become a host for them to feed upon. They drag you down, suck you dry, and eventually move on to another hose.
You'll never be a knight in shining armor. We can't fix people. We can't save people.

If a chick has issues with drinking, drug use, cutting, any eating disorder, any family issues, if shes into tattoos, dyed hair, or piercings you avoid them like the plague.

i wouldn't even consider it but i'm starting to get into taking longer rides as i branch out to discover new roads. 7-8 hour days are what i'm aiming for and the stock seat just isn't cutting it. do you think it'd be worth the money for a "premium" seat for longer amounts of time? leaning towards sargent since their seats are waterproof.

Dwelling on it isn't going to help, just accept what happened, and move on from it in time is the best advice you can get.

We got it up to 180kph (~110mph). Only got four gears to work with so that was the limit not the engine. There's no limiter either so gotta be careful not to blow it up.

I go through a rear tyre every week or two on my CT anyway so wouldn't want to deal with that one for long.

The more impressive build was the 85hp KR-1S that blew it's head "every other oil change". Felt like you were going to die when it hit power band.

>noice. I don't know what I am getting next tbqh.
It'll be an R6 or a 250 two-stroke for me. Friend of mine just bought a VFR800, hoping to give it a spin in a week or two. Said he could have a go on my R1 in return haha.

>>14892574
We haven't had much trouble getting various 250s to 100mph with barely any work. The CT weighs literally half of what they weigh.

Keep in mind we had to swap a lot of the transmission and what not to run a manual clutch.

The road we use is also very long. This is a very big country.

250s generally put out power in the low 30s stock, and most have fairings for less drag. I think you were probably measuring wrong with them too/

Our GPX were making around 36-38 and we never had a CBR making under 40hp. Those bikes will easily hit 100mph.

Because they're basically nothing alike to ride. I wanted a CBR600RR (07) but the YCC-T on my R1 is so easy to tune (you can tune on the stock ECU too) and the R6 from 06 on wards has it too.

RSV4 sounds wicked but guy I know with one gets 18mpg. I know you don't buy supersports with fuel economy in mind but fuck, my car is better than that.

Not into MV Augusta at all. I'd probably buy a Ducati 848 or 899 if I wanted to go that route.

did i say they weren't? i bought it for 1800 and sold it for 1800. not very expensive, especially for California. obviously they are slow, but they are inherently a starter motorcycle. i dont see why this is a problem. i had it for 2 months and was ready to move on. i would recommend a 250 or 300 to nearly anyone as a start bike, along with the usual 650s. and i already have taken a safety course.
btw, what do you care what someone else rides?

>>14893114
Keep in mind that's around town and on my commute. If you're on the highway it's dramatically improved. It's also a 0-60 in 2.5 second bike, eating fuel is kind of expected.

You're still talking chump change for fuel though. I think I pay $3-4 more than a tank for my CBR and get to make four times the power.

R1 has a fuel light that comes on and the trip meter swaps to reserve trip.

>>14893215
Intel has a mix of folks, tending to be on the weird side of things. As far as flight school goes, do you mean for a pilot slot? If so, then you're looking at the officer side of the house. If you'd rather be a loadmaster (get big, son) or flight engineer, then the enlisted side it is. Send me your questions; I won't blow smoke up your ass like a recruiter will.

How's your GPA? If you want to have a chance at flying, then git gud at school, get in shape, and go to ROTC. The Air Force Academy (what I like to call the Colorado School for Wayward Rich Boys) does produce some good officers, but also a lot who're fucking full of themselves and think they know everything under the Sun; fuck that. I honestly have a hard time imagining you as an officer, but then I have known several lieutenants who were nuts.

Intel is Intelligence. There's quite a few interesting jobs under that heading; I'll find you a link to job descriptions in a second. There are also some intel-related flying/RPA jobs, too.

If you want to go officer (like for being a pilot as we discussed earlier), you need to fix that shit and fast.

Here's how it goes on the enlisted side regardless of job: talk to recruiter, sign shit, go swear in and sign more shit, wait, go to basic, regret life, go to technical school (where you learn your job... mostly), go to follow on training or to your unit, do on-the-job training, do job and other military shit, become Senior Airman (E-4), maybe be allowed to live off-base, REENLIST/RETRAIN?

Poke through and see what interests you. Reply for my (admittedly biased and mildly salty) take.

>bikes on base
Air Force is chill about it most places; have your MSF done, wear your helmet, talk to the base Motorcycle Safety Rep (two or three forms, your MSF card, and maybe insurance card), and you're good. Don't fuck around on base.

You're considered a contractor but you're more of an employee than an actual contractor.

If you're in the job for twelve consecutive months (four contracts) you become an employee.

There's also programs where if you get your shit straight and do well as an enlisted puke you can go to Officer Training School and cross over the realm of nice money, ass-kissing, politics, box-checking, nice fucking money, and hopefully solid goddamn leadership. That last bit seems hard to find sometimes.

>>14893342
On the enlisted side, they don't really care about your GPA. It's how your ASVAB turns out and whether or not you can get a TS. The ASVAB score for my job (if you remember what I do) is kind of pitiful because they needed MORE, MORE, MORE, NOWNOWNOW and so we have an increasing number of idiots, unfortunately. We did our level best to weed them out at Holloman though; that course is no joke.

>>14893346
Try for Loadmaster then. You will be on an aircraft you can poop and pee in and it's a guaranteed world deployable job.
