Looking into Z125 or Grom for my first bike.
I have ridden dirt bikes a decent amount through out my life. Confident in my ability, but I know I dont need anything fast. a 125cc light weight street legal DD would be awesome. Any other bikes similar to these I can look at?

I would go for a 250 at least unless you only plan to ride your bike in places with speed limits of 50mph or less.

KSR is similar but I don't think they're found outside of Asia unless imported. Also only a 110cc.

I have noticed I can get a cbr250 or ninja 250 with low milage for the same or cheaper then a grom tho. hard to choose, i like the enuro like ability of the z125 or grom alot more then the slightly better freeway ability

Hey /dbt/ really strange question, I've got a ex250f and sometimes when I put the bike in neutral and hop off my engine dies. Like the little green neutral light flickers a bit. It didn't start doing this until I got sloppy and started shifting into neutral while the bike was barely rolling. Did i fuck up my positive neutral finder or something worse?

>>15373108
Can you use that headshake to masturbate?

>>15373108
just vibration, it definitely feels like the engine speed is causing it rather than the tires. Was really happy with how it went otherwise.

Heard someone recommend getting a beefed up front fork brace on an older GS500, would that still be recommended for a 2008?

>>15373116
it's probably just the handlebars mate

>>15373116
try revving the engine to the same rpm in lower gears and see if its there then as well, there are many possible causes of vibration
no idea on the brace, best bet is to find some forums dedicated or with a good subsection for them and browse around.
dont expect a lot of useful info from this place.

im 6ft 1, and i mob a ninja 250 that i found for a fucking STEAL (first bike fuck off lol)
im about to go on a ride tomorrow to a city 30 miles away. essentially all of it is highway.

i take the highway to and from work which is 11 miles, and the wind just goes and cucks my shit up pham. beats me up, makes me tired. i cant find an aftermarket windshield that is taller.
anyways 2 questions:
>is a ninja 250 suited for that kind of riding?
its only got 6300 miles, just got rid of the stock tires from 2003 a few weeks ago. runs fine it seems, i have Engine Ice coolant in it cuz its hot as fuck out here. i just dont know if riding for 30 miles at 9K rpms (~75mph) is stressing that motor too much.
also

It doesn't really exist anymore. Genuine bosozoku culture was actual misfit kids riding around, doing illegal stuff and beating the shit out of each other. Police cracked down on it and today all that's left is the modified bike/car scene.

The modifications are pretty cool. The cars in particular have a cartoon vibe to them.

Then what the fuck is your problem? An '03 Ninja 250 should be able to do 70-80mph no problem unless the bike is fucked. As for you the rider being scared of fucking cross winds, practice more and grow a pair.

Literally the only issue you should be having with wind on a freeway is in a 40-50mph duststorm w/ headwind.

That's why state highways are better in my opinion. Sometimes you can get kinda stuck behind a beat up truck at 60mph but it beats getting tail gated at 80mph on the interstate. Where I am everyone seems to do at most 5 over on state highways since they aren't the nearly straight lines that the interstates are.

i do find that lowering my posture and getting at this "perfect" spot that i think of it behind a semi truck pulls me along and it feels like im hitchhiking

>>15373397

>i was asking where to find taller wind screens and seeing what people thought after the 250r's engine handling extended periods of riding at it's higher rpms.

And I answered your windscreen question. As to "higher" RPMs, doesn't your fucking ninja redline at like 14k? For fucks sake that should tell you something right there. These little 250's are usually fine with reving high. Just change you oil regularly.

If you're really much of a sensitive little bitch about "high" revs then look into getting a front (drive) sprocket thats a tooth bigger then what you have now. It will steal some of your acceleration/pull away but let the engine be more relaxed at higher speeds.

by the 2nd half you've gotten sloppy, you're on and off the throttle about 3 times in one corner, going wide and taking an odd line at 1:25, 1:52 etc.

You're thinking too much about accelerating out of corners and not enough about corner speed itself.

And yeah as is usually the case, me included, can always get your body lower and more compact onto the bike. You're bolt upright and you could be doing a lot more with your body. I try and get an arm flat on the tank, I dunno if that's possible with your bars though. I don't know what's going on with your lower half too but it's a good idea to get somebody to video tape you or get a picture of you riding to check the lower body because you'll be surprised how little you're shifted off usually.

I would turn it down a notch on the accelerating out of corners until you have every corner and the apex (where to go late on the apex etc.) committed 100% to memory because it's not really doing anything helpful right now.

Reminder to always stay in the left lane whether local or superslab. Right lane is suicide. If there's anything I've learned from watching crash videos it's this piece of advice.

No.
>>15374197
And i am sure you go more than 50mph on your bike.
Take your weight, add it to your bikes weight, halv it, thats when wind speeds become a problem.

>>15374202
It's not really a problem until the semis start drifting lanes from gusts.

I'm not even American, I just know what they might say about that

>>15374206
>overtaking on the right
No, that's what's fucking wrong, your not supposed to be going faster than the lane left to you

>>15374219
Fuck sake squiddy that whole story is your own damned fault

>>15374225
WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU LEARN HOW TO RIDE?

>>15374222
I was getting off the next exit too. but no excuses for my squiddery.

>>15374222
really depends on the local laws

example, Texas has no law against passing on the right but also no law protecting it. At the same time there is no law out right saying that the left lane is only for passing. However there IS a law that says you have to listen to road signs and the TX road system is covered with signs states "Slow vehicles keep right" and "Left lane for passing only".

Teach me your ways.
The closest I came was
> riding innacity
> two lanes each way, me in left lane
> retard in front of me randomly braking and then gunning it again
> fed up, put it in first, rev like bambambam
> put in first for maximum respect
> go into right lane while full throttle
> lean left to go straight in right lane again
> almost lose front because I'm at 8k and a low Gullideckel made front wheel lose ground contact
