>>15049105
how fat is she?

>>15049105
Even a fat chick would weight the same as big guy (unless she's fucking giant) and most of bikes can handle 2 big guys. Just don't do anything that can put strain on suspension.

>>15049029
Thanks bruh!

>>15049105
There's nothing you can do, just simply state that your bike was "designed for itty bitty japs" and one normal sized person is already pushing it

>>15049105
Pop a wheelie and you will never have to see her again....

Some Suzuki bikes come with aerodynamic bump that covers the backseat. You can tell her that the bikes has only 1 seat then.

Okay, that's too much. I guess you should just tell her that's the bike wouldn't handle it. I mean it will probably end up damaged.

>>15049142
You have nice hair. I wish i had curls they look so cool.
But i only have 2 fucking swirls on the back of my head and thick fucking hair that you can't style anyhow without having trouble with the swirls.

Back to topic. Nice gear so far but get better trousers and maybe gloves, depending on what you ride.

>>15049159
there you go. just say you are still really new at riding and you don't know how to ride with a pillion passenger and you don't want to risk an accident.

Always the same story, shame that the hot ones useally have a boat anchor attached to their social circle...

Well, just come up with some contrived excuse like
"I hit a pothole and now my front end suspension is a little fucked up, heck, I probably shouldn't be riding it"

>>15049170
hello red.dit

new ways to get the attention your parents never gave you? nobody pays attention to your harley spam anymore right?

>>15049172
perfect excuse imo. she wouldnt be any wiser

You can also eat shit and fall in front of her (obviously not hard enough to get injured).

>>15049166
that's basically saying "sry you're too fat for my bike", I can't do that.

>>15049168
>>15049169
I just said I can't because I took her friend for a ride last weekend and she knows so she knows I'm not inexperienced.

>>15049172
thought of that too but it's my only form of transportation and we will meet up tomorrow. Maybe I should take the bus then.

Problem is If I'm rude to fat girl, skinny girl will hate me also.

Be honest you cunt, at least partially.

"Sorry, when I took Skinny-girl for a ride I had alot of trouble, I'd like to practice more with her first since she's closer to my size it's easier to manage the bike."

>>15049195

You wouldn't be rude, you are simply stating that your bike isn't in tip-top shape and you wouldn't want her to get hurt right? Then after a few hours/days/weeks her doughy lard brain will forget about wanting to go for a ride.

Hell go all out and dribble a little oil on your forks so you can say "see its been leaking a bit, I'll have to get it fixed soon"

>>15049202
That's not even that fat. Nowhere near close 110.

>>15049203
You can find a stock exhaust you can also find a better aftermarket one (quieter).

What do you ride? Just get leathers with vents and go fast.
Also if you're not going fast you don't need all that gear. You don't need pants for little trips below ~100km/h

I'm like 350lb myself, plus my 130lb girl. I'm not going to bother converting that, go ahead if you care.

I ride an Fz6 with her on the back without much difficulty. The bike doesn't mind.

I wouldn't take her on a road trip, but a run around the block won't kill you or the bike.

Don't get to picky with the gear. Maybe some protection denim pants are enough.
Or offroad gear as the most you will probably get from a crash will be the impact damage.

I mean, from their argument, it sounds like a truck almost hit the bike and subsequently the van. That let to a potential collision between the bike and van. If so, I don't see any damage in the bike at all. In any case, if that is all correct, I would only really blame the van people cause the passenger got out and immediately started the altercation. I will be I treated to see how the events led up.

Since when does the ECU sit in your engine?

Is a DRZ 400 even fast enough on a highway to reach 90 comfortably?

Im looking for a supermoto to daily about 40 miles, but the more i read about SM's (Supermoto's that come from the factory, not converted) the more i realize that they need more maintenance than a regular sport bike.

What are your guys opinions?

>>15050369
How is the EFI going to break on a dirt bike/eduro anyways? Unless you fuck with the system, I don't see it happening.

>>15050374

Until you rip your exhaust header apart on the destroyed roadways of your imagined post-apocalyptic netherworld.

The replacement you hobble together with rusting metal and arc weld with a series of galvanic batteries fueled by sea water and your own piss, it ends up making your bike run lean.

Unable to find a source of delicate precisely milled brass jets, you trudge on, the lean mixture causes so much heat you no longer turn your headlight on, instead the glow of your exhaust guides you. That is until you burn a hole in your piston.

You die of dysentery with no bike.

>>15050415
A stock DRZ will barely reach 90. It won't be comfortable for anything above 70. Dual sports ans supermotos are terrible for the highway. I think you're looking at the wrong type of bike.

Also the converted ones generally require WAY more maintenance than the factory ones.

>>15050364
I have push started my efi bike plenty of times, just don't be a dumb fuck who has to hold the starter down until it wont turn over anymore at all.

>>15050410
It isn't accessible from the outside. And the injectors are in your engine.

Doesn't matter because it doesn't break.

>>15050415
90 km/h, sure. Do not get a supermoto to ride 40 miles daily. They are in town toys.

>>15050437
It can be done if the battery is OK, just not high enough to rotate the engine. If battery is anywhere near its lifecycle or one of the cells is bust, you are fucked.

Did someone say "fucking spanner"

>>15050415
>>15050434
>>15050465
I've done plenty of long highway rides on my DRZ, but you have to realize you can't go over 70 for any extended period of time.

>>15050409

>>15050443

>supermoto
>in town toys
What a waste. They're only really good on really tight twisty roads.

>>15050470
Jets require incredible precision to correctly fuel the bike. It would take some good machines and a top .0000000001% craftsman to make one by eye. I wouldn't say that's applicable to the post-acropapliptic or breakdown-innawoods scenario that carb guys keep clinging to.

>>15050486
Well, I have 4 different main jets in my garage right now. Jets don't get worn, so I could just keep those with me forever.

There are two kinds of very different bikes that are commonly called supermoto. How do we distinguish them in our speech?

>>15050500
What are those two bikes?
Stock sumos?
Sumo conversions?
Hypermotos? (hypermotard, dorsoduro etc)

>>15050500
I thought supermoto's were dirt bikes with road tires on them. what are people talking about when they mention "converting" them into supermotos other than the tires? suspension?

>>15050470
They don't do it by eye, I've seen a REAL old timer lathe his own reamers that he used to jet his ancient Ford Coupe (mixture of 30s-40s parts?).

But I assumed it was just his magic, this guy could also make a perfect center bolt hole in a leaf spring with just an oxyacetylene torch.

Just a tiny little man, in a tiny little spring shop, surrounded by machinery he knew better than the people who built them. A real .1%

Is it worth it to take the MSF course, even if I've been riding for about 3 months?

>>15050500

Well, let's say we have a wr250r and yz250f and we convert both to "supermoto". The first will be less powerful and less maintenance intensive, and will also be road legal. The second will be the opposite.

>>15050513
nah, it helps with insurance costs though. can you maneuver around in really low speeds? thats usually the hard part

>>15050513

Alright i understand, thanks!

>>15050443

>>15050455

Unfortunately i would have to be in the 80mph~ range for about 20 miles.

>>15050509
this >>15050517

>>15050519
Those are still both conversions. Once you go custom, you can't generalize about things anymore. You can have a DR650 supermoto next to a KX500 supermoto, they're both just conversions, the spectrum is too wide to be more specific than that.

>>15050532
>35 before you blink

atleast...system of a down was the shit

>>15050509
It depends on what level of bike you want. Most of the street tarders do:
>electrical shit to get a dirt bike street legal
>17" wheels
>taller gearing
But people who race might do:
>17" wheels
>altered forks and shock
>possibly custom swingarm
>larger brake rotor, stainless steel braided brake lines, stronger master cylinder and caliper
>custom triple clamps for improved geometry
>building up the engine for more power

>>15050533
>Unfortunately i would have to be in the 80mph~ range for about 20 miles.
Get a KTM 690 SMC

>>15050541
don't the output shaft fuck out on them quickly

>>15050535
Yeah, yeah, you can.
There are conversions of bikes that have been initially road legal and detuned as fuck to meet asinine emission regulations, and then you have offroad only bikes that have also been converted.

>>15050541
Trust me, even that isn't fun to do at all.

>>15050548

On another note, I want to ride highway but I don't have a damper. Should I worry? Or should I just stay off till I have a steering damper? That's my number 1 fear is a fucking tank slapper

>>15050572
There has been a video recently that explains how to repair stripped bolts and holes, you can probably apply the same approach to your clutch mounting hole.

>>not husky 701 Supermoto

Even then i bet it would still not be nice on the highway for what i intend, right?

>>15050572

>>15050594
What bike? You don't need one. Just don't do wheelies and land with the bars turned.

>>15050572
Stripped as in the bolt spins and doesn't tighten or stripped as in you've only started to mangle the threads (ie bolt starts turning and stops or gets tight)

If its the later buy a thread chaser and clean it up.

If it spins you need to heli-coil or do an insert.

>>15050415
The WR250x will do 90 all day no problem. Ive done it. Also first valve adjustmrnt is like 18k. Its a 250cc thumper its about as maintenance free as it gets. Hell my lawnmower requires more maintenance than any of my vehicles.

Yes. Its when your wheel isn't spinning in line with the bike. Happens sometimes under hard accel over bumpy surface. You don't need one on an sv.

>>15050720
my bad, I would suggest looking up how the 2 stroke process works compared to 4 strokes, its pretty neat. 2 strokes have less moving parts, weighs less generally, are lower maintenance and probably some other bennies I cant think of atm. I also know their exhaust has an explosion chamber that helps with hp. Thats about as far as my knowledge goes, I can tell you all about network routing protocols like EIGRP or OSPF if you want :S

>>15050743
Roads are usually angled to the right a bit so water runs off, so it's normal for the center to be worn more slightly to the left.

>>15050743
Same problem, opposite side.
It might be the bike, the confidence just isn't there.

>>15050743
Not sure if you guys can tell because my phone is flipping the picture sideways, but the left side has a quite larger chicken strip than the right side, I'm sure it has an uneven surface from me being more confident leaning to my left.

>>15050743
>The age-old mystery of riders preferring left turns or right turns is easy to resolve. They're uncomfortable on the bike in one or the other and are simply holding on too rigidly, on their "bad" side.
Also something something throttle side

>>15050760
The main reason 2-strokes produce more power from the same displacement is because they have an explosion every time the piston goes to the top, instead of every second time (1 combustion per 2 piston strokes instead of 1/4). The EXPANSION chamber is there because the intake and exhaust port are open at the same time, so it lets the exhaust waves forcefuck the fuel mixture back into the cylinder so less of it goes out the exhaust unused and wasted.

I dont know what all these fucking idiots are talking about but the WR250x is a 4 stroke as is my lawnmower. As are most things produced this side of the 20th century. And yes the WR easily does 90 i dont know what anons talking about but its quite easy on the WR as its a 6spd. The DRZ is only a 5 spd is why it suffers at interstate speeds.

You have no idea how gearboxes work. Just stop.

Whats the risk of fucking yourself up with this?

I don't want a streetbike, I'd wear a helmet and other protective clothing, and I'm a pretty safe driver. I'd be even more cautious on a bike. I probably wouldn't drive on the highway for a bit, and even then nothing crazy. Not in bad weather either. I'd avoid heavy traffic/rush hour.

Your right. I made all this up for the sake of misinforming one random on the internet. I dont even own a vehicle. The DRZ has 10 gears and does 160mph. How did i even get here being so clueless and having ridden all these motorcycles at 30 years old and having been riding all my life. Yes the DRZ with one less gear goes much faster than any google search ever will tell you vs the WR. Thankyou fir correcting me wise anon.

Im not sure how you replied to my statement despite the fact you cant read... look buddy act like we are friends here. Theres not an argument here. A drzsm off the showroom will not go near the top speed of the WR. I dont even know what we are arguing about unless you have a drz and are butthurt. The WR is better on the highway period. I would love to own a DRZ period. Im not shitting on it. Or a DR or anything. I love suzuki. Okay i love rin...

FTFY

>>15051055
What point are you proving? 400 makes 4 less hp according to one mag but you post no weights whatsoever? What are you disputing vs quoted post...

>>15050963
its not really a meme, motorcycles are inherently dangerous by nature, respect the bike brother and it'll respect you.

>now thats a meme, a motorcycle will turn on you in a second because their autonomous and hate white cis males

>>15051072
both bikes are shit, the drz will get to speed much faster and while possibly limited by its factory gearing will go much faster with a simple sprocket change.
its goddamn physics.

>>15051083
top speed nigga
~300lb/~300lb/~350lb

Fucking based.

>>15051078
Im trying to compromise with you but okay. First bike was a suzuki and just bought lots of suzuki gear at recent motoamerica race though i ride a kawi now. Vinales FTW.

>>15051097
I feel like that's not how "based" should be used.

Good paintwork in a week is something to be happy about senpai.

Come back when you've actually done 6 hours highway on a supermoto.

>>15050601
Nice? Not really. Fine? Definitely. It's not the best option, but it's not horrible and impossible like people make it out to be.

>>15050833
USB Charger and X grip is pretty much it

I can see the imperfections from here, unless thats dirt sprinkles. anyway looks brety good

>>15051135
That's dirt, and that's before the repaint. I gotta move shit out of my garage before I take new pictures.

>>15051096
Look the OP just asked if the DRZ would do 90mph comfortably and questioned supermotos reliability. I just stated facts. The WR has one of the best service schedules in the biz. It will go 90 stock. And its fuel injected. Why are you arguing with me? This is why the WR is so popular vs the DRZ and why this topic is one of the most popular on the web. I did nothing wrong by mentioning my experience with the WR. Okay the DRZ can be modified to go 90mph but that.wasnt really the topic...

>>15051152
90 on a WR250r is wringing the absolute piss out of it though.
a drz will do it better iwth a sprocket change but literally all the WR has on the drz is a 6th gear. its not light, its not powerful, its not anything special.

plus im bored soo.. yeah.
a ktm 350exc would be a better choice than either one by a long shot, maint interval not withstanding

>>15051168
I think they meant wr250x vs drz400sm, both factory supermoto-styled bikes.

>>15051179
same bike different trim, suzuki regeared the drz sm to have a nearly identical topspeed out of the box
and according to gearing commander the wr250x has ~.5mph theoretical top speed difference from the R model

>>15050769
No hearing problems. I can handle the SV pretty well now. Could it have to do anything with aperhaps a previous trauma?

>>15051123
I bet something else will happen to make it not work within the week

If you've had a previous injury on the one side you're mentally less likely to rely/trust it, on top of any residual physical damage

Crashes tend to fuck things up. This hurr italian breaking meme is only funny if something didn't trigger it.
