Had my first real ride on the DRZ today. Put a little over a hundred miles on her. I'm in love with this thing.

2st for EX500 is best ninja

I need to clean the carbs on my 83' GS550E, but I'm terrified that I'll fuck something up. I've poured over the Haynes manual for the bike and feel semi- confident. Should I just man up and do it, or should I get someone else to do it for me so I don't mess something up?

Anybody here feel like using their sport bike as a commuter in city traffic is obnoxious? I have a Sportster and i can still enjoy it in my day to day riding because all the power is between 2500 and 4000. My only concern is that i plan on getting a R6 and i may become aggravated having to lug it around in slow-ass Baton Rouge traffic.

Got any necessary mods?

>>15036842
why are you planning on getting the bike with the least amount of low down power in the 600 class, the class with the least amount of low down power of sporty motorcycles then.

Are you retarded?

Get a gsx-r750 if you want some mid (inb4 hurr I don't like how it looks though, I wanted le meme r6)

>>15036873
Since when is the R6 a meme-bike? GSXR is the meme if anything

Ayy DRZ bros.

As for necessary mods, you'll probably want to to cut out the airbox snorkel (3x3 mod) and rejet it so it can breathe a little better. If you ever plan on off-roading or anything you should probably get case savers. They're just plates of steel that you stick to the case savers so you don't bust a hole through them if the bike falls on one.
Also adjust all the controls to your liking. I always need to move my levers down and like to roll my bars forward some too.

>>15036873
I wasnt aware that the R6 is a meme. Im not very good at being up to date on fads and what not. I guess thats why i dont care for my Sportster. I just dont care about the "image". I think its a nice looking bike, but damn does it piss me off.

>>15036842
Sport bike no, supersport rehss baik, maybe.

This is what F4i, 650F, 636, etc. exist for.

How do you convert a bike with a title(salvage or otherwise) and remove the title so it's off road only?

>>15036848
Is this gay furry porn?

>>15036946

>>15036961
Is that all? I'm thinkin about buying a salvage bike and building something for the track, but I don't want to keep minimum liability on it if it's not going on the road.

man, after riding an injection for a few months, a carb bike feels clunky
and the throttle on this bike has so much travel, I've nearly stalled it a bunch of times

>>15036970
yeah pretty much, but if the track requires insurance then you're kinda fucked.

>>15036781
Ninja 300 is a sportsbike in the same way the waiter in a Los Angeles diner is a movie actor.

I find it hard to believe you bought a harley whilst never caring about image but that's good.

Go test ride these bikes and then you won't have questions like this, ride the 750, trust me, you'll like it.

Dealers will usually let you testride basically any second hand bike on the lot no questions.

I find commuting fine on sportbikes, unless your commute is over an hour long the comfort won't factor in imo. GSX-R's have these nice snap back mirrors (most bikes do now too) and sportbikes are nice and slim for filtering.

>>15036979
I thought most places were just 'ride at your own risk.'

Thanks for that tip.

Well boys, two weeks of riding and I spilled it. Was daydreaming driving around a lake at a conservation park. Looked back and went off the road at sharp curve. Went 20 feet and ass end kicked out and slid about 30.

Wew lads.

Just had my first late-night bike ride since I left India. Absolutely fucking amazing - borderline spiritual experience. Perfect weather, empty roads, and a fresh, cold beer to relax here at home with.

>>15036859
kek, forgot to link the old thread

>>15036970
You don't even have to destroy the title then. You can simply not register it and you won't need anything for it.

>>15036972
I would say it depends on the bike a lot. Are you riding a carbed and fuel injected version of the same bike? Are they properly tuned?
A bike with a shitty CV carb or bad tune will feel bad, but my bike with a flat slide pumper carb feels great. Super responsive and smooth on and off throttle.

the fact he accepts basically no blame for the crash is just amazing.

He actually congratulates himself for hitting the brakes like making it even harder to just push that right bar a mm forward and complete the turn was some positive development.

The wind? lol more like he forgot to turn.

>>15037034
yes just lean it to one side and get comfy with slow speed maneuvers

>>15037034
It will take some getting used to since you will have to hang way off to one side when you stop. You can make it work if you want to. I don't normally recommend the SM but it's a couple inches lower which could help a lot.

dbt,
Would you rather ride near Charlotte, NC or San Francisco, CA?

An opportunity to move to either town is coming up, and this is one of several factors.

weight, m8

>>15037034
No. I just bout the super moto which is lower and I have a 30 inch inseam. With boots on I can barely get both feet down, and 1 foot down comfortably. I don't think I could do a couple more inches though.

The DRZ suspension will sag when you sit on it. That's not taken into account on that website. Try sitting on one for real before you change your mind.

Yeah he was basically dragging knee bro, he totally couldn't have gone further.

Just to give you an idea of what a bike leaned over looks like

I fixed my bike

nobike newbie here - will I be underwhelmed/bored with a 250cc first bike?

I don't plan on getting anything over 650cc - is there a huge difference between 250 and say 500?

>>15037247
Get a 600/1000, take the MSF, take the ARC, do a track day and you'll be better than 95% of street riders.

>>15037247
They say yes but I haven't felt too many issues with my 250. Although I don't have the guts to enter the freeway, I've hit 65 MPH easy on it. Even got it up to 80. Not super fast, but good enough for commuting.

>>15037257
This

>>15037257
I plan on taking the msf before getting my first bike, and may well take the ARC as well
by 600/1000 do you mean a 600cc-1000cc engine motorcycle?

>>15037247
>nobike newbie here - will I be underwhelmed/bored with a 250cc first bike?
not at first, but soon you probably will

>>15037270
Yes, make sure it's meme worthy. And you'll do the MSF on a 125 even if you own a bigger bike already. ARC and trackdays are done on your own bike.

>>15037247

Very fun but big drawbacks.

If you're like me there's not much point owning one, I tend to be ride rather relaxed in urban/city environments but go fast when I'm out of the city and supermotos aren't he best for those 1-2 hour ride out to the corners.

I'm just gonna get a dirt bike for lightweight shenanigans and keep a proper road bike for road riding, I'd be doing an oil change every 2 weeks on a 450 too.

>>15037667
sell that shit, buy some leathers and cheap sportbike, doesn't have to be nice every sportbike made in the 21st century turns better than you can for the most part.

It's part of the Honda rider training, I assume you have to be doing one of their courses to use the touge

>>15039149
oh so you would have to go slow around it then.

>>15039154
nah the objective of the course is to get your knee/elbow down on a CT110 or NBC110

you can't use it outside of rider training and LAMS motorcycle demo days.

It's a punished touge.

It is begging for silly minimoto and 65cc motard races on it, instead...nothing.

Why do you have a rental?

>>15038861
You can do some greenlaning in England but in Scotland you can't ride offroad unless private land with written permission.

>punished touge
Woooooah hoooooooooo

>>15039164
he told me to use the rental rather than bring my own vehicle up

Its totally true though, you can't wear your tire evenly if you do mostly city / motorway riding. The only corners you turn are at either right angles but at really slow speeds or massive swooping corners where you barely lean over. I love riding up mountains and stuff on the weekend but it isn't the majority of my riding.

"Why are we still here? Just to deliver? Every night, I can feel my clutch... and my crankcase... even my gears. The rental I've lost... the letters I've lost... won't stop hurting... It's like they're all still there. You feel it, too, don't you? I'm gonna make them give back our tooj.
