Why do you have to be over six feet tall? Thay don't look that big? It's not a big ass enduro. I guarantee my bikes way taller than a Hayabusa and my buddy fits on it just fine. He's 5'6.

Yamaha got the Mt-07 (and 03), Kawa got the ER6-N, Suzki got the Gladius.

All proper, budget friendly, first time & easy going bikes. Good for young people with not a lot of money that want a modern bike that is cheap, but doesn't look or feel cheap.

have you ever ridden a CB500?

the CBR650's are great the CB500 is a fucking pile that weighs a ton and has the most boring engine ever placed in a motorcycle (I shit you not redline is under 8k)

The stock pegs on it are hilariously low too, I scraped it IMMEDIATELY AND VIOLENTLY doing a 90 degree turnoff at an intersection.

I tell this to every new rider I ever meet. Buy a dirt cheap ass used gs500 or klr650 preferably the klr because off roading on a motorcycle is literally the tits and both bikes have more than enough power for a beginner rider.

>>15318219
Unless you're talking about the four cylinder one from the 70s you're plain wrong

Your body position must be shit if you are such a retard that you 'violently' scrape the pegs rounding a corner.

here you go, feel free to critique it to your hearts content, won't change the fact the bike comes with very little clearance and would require aftermarket rearsets if you want to go around corners.

I know /dbt/ are body position experts so this will be fun.

24y/o here, aside from a couple months ago riding a friend's bike around the block, I just finished my msf course over the weekend.

It was only intimidating until I realized it's like riding a bicycle and finally stopped overthinking things. I'm sure it's much more intimidating for those who've never driven/aren't comfortable with manual cars though.

I got my first 50cc bike at 16. God must have had something really special in store for me because I crashed that thing so damn much.

Made it go fast, did 95km/h opposed to the standard 45. And it was wide open throttle always.

I feel like that's the worst age to start riding. You're not young enough to hold the machine in regard because your parents said so, nor old enough to fully grasp why you should do so on your own accord.

Started again at 24 (this year), so far a wholly different experience. Much more leisurely and calculated.

You can easily get over 200k on one of these motors with horrible maintenance and consistently being on the throttle.

>A lot of power
Owners wouldn't get bored of the bike and therefore wouldn't want to sell them and buy another.

>Easy to work on and dirt cheap parts
Once agin, less money for Honda dealerships

Etc, this new sport touring bike would immediately be the best one on the market but they'd loose way too much money in the long run.

>>15318335
oh I don't mind, I'm just reveling in the knowledge that a guy who rode into the side of a truck has bothered to suggest anyone else might have poor body position.

It's the most /dbt/ thing that has ever occurred.

Everyone's an expert, nobody is able to back up anything they're fucking saying.

>>15318301

I've been driving manual since I learned to drive so the actual shifting/clutch shit wasn't a problem whatsoever for me, aside from building the muscle memory of where everything is at.

My biggest problem/intimidation factor so to speak was overthinking everything and mentally getting caught up in the process of doing it, rather than just outright doing it like I know how to on a bicycle. Once that clicked it was smooth sailing

>>15318345
This, if worst came to worst and you somehow magically blew one of these motors you could literally replace the entire thing for around 2k and be set for another 20 years.

A lot of the time people want to sell there bikes around the time valve clearance is due or some other maintenance issue because it's a pain in the ass. Believe me anon when I say people who bought these bikes would want to keep them after they paid them off and just buy another bike all together because they would literally be able to do almost anything and and backyard machanic with 2% knowledge on how motors work could literally fix anything on the motor.

>>15318360
That's not necessarily true anon. I guarantee most people sell thir bikes around the 5k-10k mark because they're scared of racking up miles on the bike. There's tones of people who would never even dream of buying a bike with over 20k miles because they'd think the motor is pretty much almost shot at that point. Not with this motor.

Friend bought a 2015 Cb500FA. It's actually got a red line at 8500. Maybe it can go to 9 but the Rev gauge is red between 8000-9000.

It's also hilariously underpowered compared to other bikes of similar size.

Very nice bike though. And cheap. It is a good beginner bike, but he's 6ft and a bit of a boy racer, he'll be looking to upgrade soon enough.

And the cheap maintenance and long lifespan and power of this motor wouldn't even be the biggest selling point in my opinion. The thing that would make me the most happy is you could literally ride like a bat out of hell any time all the time and never worry about being to hard on the motor or worrying about dramatically decreasing the lifespan of the motor as its a thought we all have in the back of our minds when hot roding our bikes, don't even try to deny it.

The main thing it had going for it was being cheap for a new bike. It was a bit cheaper than a 300 from any other brand, and has a bit more power than the ninja 300.

It's also pretty torquey and cruiser like to drive due to the low rpm range. Good to go to work and back, which is mostly what he uses it for.

MSRP FZ-07 (they don't sell "MT" in Canada, this looks the same though): $7300.

He got his CB500FA registered, on the road, taxes paid (not including insurance) for $5700. I think the sale price was just under $5000.

MSRP for it is apparently $6700 but nowhere we found was selling it for that much. He got a good deal but pretty much everywhere we went, they were sub $6k, whereas other bikes were around their MSRP.

Maybe it's a temporary market thing, but it was definitely the best bang for buck in Ontario last month.

>>15318519
Don't you mean a fast as fuck sport/touring bike with all the power you can want and low rpms at freeway speeds with an easy and I truly do mean easy motor to modify whise motor would easily outlive any other bike on the market even with garbage maintenance and dirt cheap parts and one of the most easy to fix modern motors on the market?

It was either that or a CBR300RA for just under 4k. I think he's glad he didn't settle on the 300 (since it had the same underpowered for its class problem as the 500).

Still though,

Not in germany, also taxes. He's lucky to get maybe 1500 before taxes, so around 1k net income. then he has to pay health insurance and income tax, with no option to get increased pay because it's fucking maccas. I bet in a few years there won't even be jobs left as mickey dee's because all the refugees want monies as well and some are even willing to work.

What 400 pounds is considered heavy now? It would be considerably lighter than a boss hoss.

why not just merge two 450cc dirt bike engines together instead of making litre bike engines?
it would be lighter and the same power but noooo they don't do it.

bike companies are boring it is simple.

>>15318662
How would you like if I left you out in the rain, when all you wanted to do is lay down and sleep?

talking dirt bikes, owned 3 KTM's, first one blew up after 75 hours, bearing blew up in the gear box and sent the gears through the top and bottom end of the engine.
second one lasted 300 hours on the original everything, did a rebuild at 300 hours and it has transferred oil from the gearbox to the engine ever since the cases were split, replace the gearbox seals, re seal the cases, fuck the gearbox seals, start over, costs thousands in labour to get the shop to do it and its more than the bike is worth at this point.
third one i still have after 7 years, final words would be they make good 2 strokes, shit 4 strokes as far as reliability goes, if you don't care about reliability they make the best bikes in general for dirt riding.

>300 hours on original everything
That's your problem

You have to change the oil every ten hours and check valves every 20 hours and rebuild the motor every 100 hours.

>>15318749
>ktm
>mainly dirt bikes
you don't say?

>>15318778
oh it was maintained regularly, the piston, crank, bearings, valves and even the timing chain were all fine after 300 hours though, only replaced everything because the engine was apart.
its just a cunt of an engine, ktm stopped trying to separate the oil in the 4 strokes after 2008 for that sharing oil problem which is funny because they did the separating the oil thing because of the exploding gearboxes that killed my first ktm

EVERYTHING IS GOING WRONG TODAY

>>15318801
stop fucking things up then you screwdriver

>>15318793
I'm just going to basically keep up with the regular maintenance and pay to have the motor rebuilt every 100 hours on the dot because fuck that and after around 200 hours I'm going to sell it with proof it had the correct maintenance on it with the documents for every drop of oil I bought for the bike and the two rebuilds etc. Having all that shit really helps sell the bike.

>>15318801
have you tried going right?

I love the smell of fresh tires and now I can actually pass the inspection with a 120/60 tire

>>15318830
Also I got it for 50€ shipped to my door. What a day to be a happy merchant.

>>15318808
there is a choice to be made, new piston and rings at 100 hours and sell it.
or keep it until 300 hours, do piston and rings at 150 hours, at 300 hours the bore will need doing and you may as well do the bottom end while you are at it, if you keep the bike that long you are at the stage where its always more expensive to buy a new bike than it is to just fix the old one is the downside because they hold their value surprisingly well mainly because of what the parts cost to fix them

What about the 690 and 500?

>>15318581
Friend wanted the R3 actually. It seems like a great bike.

But for whatever reason, every insurance company classifies it as a pure Sport Bike, whereas most others of that type are Sport Touring. Best quote he got was about 4k a year in Ontario. Honda is just over 1500/yr.

>>15318880
ill elaborate on that, the new 500 and the new 690's, the old 525's and 530's are unreliable cunts and so are the older 690's

>>15318876
M8....

>>15318892
i should elaborate on that too...
all 4 stroke dirt bikes built with performance in mind pre 2010 are unreliable cunts.
they were still new technology and working the bugs out really, wasnt until around 2012 that any 4 strokes really started getting good

It's too late but I pay $1350 a year for full coverage with 500/500 for collision and comprehensive.

26 years old and with an M2...

>>15319207
23 with an M1 lol. Trust me, we both checked around for a good 3 weeks leading up to our M2 exit course etc before buying our bikes.

I ended up getting an odd exception for my Hyosung Gt650 with my current insurer who normally doesn't insure bikes, and he went with some broker who quoted through Aviva I believe. But even he couldn't do better than 4k for the Yamaha.

Which insurer did you land with? Comprehensive for 1.3k is still very good for 26+M2.
