I dont recall trying to pretend it wasn't me though. 3 days before that incident I got tasered in the heart in my house and they thought it was a good idea to send me straight back home. All that shit happened because I was on the wrong medication, american psychiatric system is a piece of shit. I decided to man up and deal with my problems without medication.

s-sorry.

Last thing I'll say is when I got tasered in the heart I thought it was a bullet. I felt so relieved and at peace it still bothers me today. I literally experienced death so I'm thankful for every day and religious now. I literally live to ride now.

I mean, half the reason I bought the klx is so that I can go ride trails in the mtns with my buddy, harley doesn't make a dual sport that I'm aware of. I've never owned an offroad vehicle before, just ridden along in other people's jeeps and trucks. Last week we went on a fairly mild jeep trail, and we were easily going faster than all the jeeps and OHV. It's so capable, I'm loving it!

Just anything I should know before buying. Maybe buying one used or mounting positions and accessories. Anything really.
>>
>>15343513
Yeah, buy one online or at a brick and mortar store. Only use cash or credit, fuck writing out checks (what are you, my grandma?).

Make sure you have a GoPro in your checkout before you check out/go to the counter. Don't want to go up to the cute girl working and then realize you have nothing in your cart/basket.

Don't forget to finish the transaction. Pay for the damn thing. If they ask you if you like a receipt, make sure you throw that thing in the trash, you don't want all that BPA over your hands. You don't want to grow tits.

>>15343559
When you're recording riding you want to have a centered position, preferably on the chin of your helmet. You also want to record the top of the bike but focus it on the road ahead. I see so many new recorders mount the camera in a way where half the screen is just the bikes instrument cluster and it's such a waste.

So mount on the chin of your helmet or your chest, someplace centered. Your helmet has the added benefit of recording where you look rather than fixed in front. Or you can mount in centered on your bike, but depending on what you ride that can be hard to do.

>>
>>15343559
That webm is a perfect example of how not to record. We see nothing but the road a few feet in front of him. The camera is also really shaky, likely wasn't a camera with any kind of decent image stabilization. GoPros don't have mechanical gyro stabilization, but they do have a really good digital stabilization. Probably the best digital stabilization on the market.

I've never noticed any image stabilization in gopro videos. It's just that the wide angle lens makes the little shakiness less noticeable.

CC81PT has some sony camera that has really good image stabilization.
>>
>>15343513
Are you into post processing / editing?
GoPro raw footage doesn't look good, it delivers the best material for post processing / meant for professionals that know how to handle this.
https://youtu.be/aUHtnAYNzC0?t=14s

Do you have no idea how to edit? Get a SJ4000 or another chink cam, they deliver more colorful raw material that is worthless for editing but looks better than unedited GoPro footage.

I'm looking at Yamaha V-Stars. I haven't ridden in almost 10 years, but have been thinking a lot recently about getting back into it.

I just want to cruise around on the weekend, don't need crazy accelerations, don't intend to ride with groups or do anything stupid. Just cruise and enjoy.

Is the 250 fine? Or will I regret not going for the 950 even considering my purpose?

Get a used 250R instead and buy a middleweight when you're ready. They hold their value perfectly. I was looking at a 300F for my first bike too. If you really want the streetfighter look just take off the fairing like squidanon >>15344208

I like the cast wheels better, because you can go tubeless with no extra parts.

But... if you dent it, you're fucked.

Spoked wheels for strength, cast if you want to save weight and go tubeless.

essentially spokes if you're actually gonna go sumo with it and take it off jumps otherwise just get whatever you can that's affordable.

Then again, cast wheels will take some punishment of their own...
>>
>>15344265
when you put the cast wheels on that bike were they a direct fit or did you have to make your own spacers? If so how did you make them?
>>
>>15344295
Depends which cast wheels we are talking though....

The ones on that bike are not cast, they're forged and then CNC machined to shape.

Marchesini wheels are much stronger than an average cast sport bike wheel.

The new Warp9 wheels look pretty sweet, but they're expensive.

Custom spacers.
SV650 axles.
Machined the front hub to move the rotor inboard.
Cut the speedo drive off the fork leg (Bike uses magnetic speedo anyways)

I've been wanting to put my spare DRZ wheels in my other bike. Supposedly the rear fits right on with DRZ spacers but the front will need an axle reduction kit and custom spacers. How do you go about getting the measurements for making your spacers? Do you just center the wheel where everything looks lined up and measure the distance from the bearing/hub to the fork?

Like I said, the front hub was machined to move the rotor inboard.

And SV650 axles are way smaller diameter than the Husky axles... like 17mm vs 25mm.

Picture is of the reducer I made for the rear wheel, between the brake hanger and wheel.

It's easier than most people think. Just dirty/frustrating. Things can get tough when working in small spaces though, or when parts stick together where they shouldn't.

You fuckin measure everything duh.

The rear wheel was easy as fuck, the sprocket and rotor had the same distance and offset as the stock wheel once I put the GS500 cush drive on it.

I made all my spacers in plastic first, to make sure everything fit, then remade them from 6061 aluminum.

I didn't, I rode the bike, it didn't shake, so I didn't balance them.

But you can just put the wheel on the axle, and let it rotate on it's own, if it even does... and put weights at the top, let it rotate again.. add weight where needed etc... Just Google balancing a motorcycle wheel.

why are you retards so bad at realizing the bump limit is 310 now? I can't think of the last thread we actually had hit the bump thread before migration.

Pretty new to riding, got a bike about 2 weeks ago. I've notice my right hand hurts after my 45 minute commute. Is this normal for new riders or am I missing a technique somewhere?

Start masturbating with your left hand.

To be fair, F1 cars kick up a shitload more spray than bikes do, making it impossible to see cars in front.

My dad has this CB125 rotting in the garage, he said I could have it if I got it fixed.

Currently it needs a ton of shit to be road legal, but it does run. The big issue is it will randomly rev up on its own, at idle and on the road, and you have to bump the throttle to get it back to idle. It's got an aftermarket carb, but it feels like its tuned right, and the mixture screws aren't vibrating out.
