>>15426795
I don't have a favorite.
>a storm is coming
>I just got the rainsuit
Should I do it?
>>15426673
yeah fzr400s are good, nice and nimble, low to the ground aswell i could pretty much hold it upright on my knees, probly the fastest 400 of the day. vfr400s are good too, but are whale tier, only suitable if you have birthing hips and like burning your calfs on the exhaust
>>15426809
Yes.
My richa rainsuit didn't last in scotland that well. They advertise it as 100% waterproof.
I'd be interested to see how yours does.
Be careful and go slow though.
Make sure to have your shit like wallet and phone in a convenient place and not a rear pocket or something.
These army bags were fucking awesome with the waterproof liners though.

If i was going to buy a cruiser for getting from A to B thats what i would buy uleh, but to answer your question, yes.

It should have a tablet one too
>>15426929
Thank (You)
>>15426920
And how would I adjust it then?
>>15426856
gud
>>15426839
no u
>>15426946
you could set it properly once and leave it alone like most people do.
silicone will let you move it without it being loose in there too
>>15426701
that fairing looks great
>>15426971
The temperature amplitude where i live is almost 20°C, a fixed setting would maybe work for 4 months before shitting up the bike
>>15426976
my efi has no problems with that

Hey guys, first bike and I put about 1200 miles on it for a total of 4800 and the back wires were exposed so I put a new back on. What should I do to extend the life of a tire. Also best GPS/Android compatible watch for Google maps directions.

>>15427256

>>15427250
Nice. Part of me wants a lil commuter bike. But another part of me just wants a full blown dresser. Cuz why the fuck not
>>15427261
yeah but what brand?
tyre type?
>>15427260
EXACTLY WHAT I NEED
>>15427267
Pirelly City Demon, fucking awful but it's cheapest I could get.
I just need them to last trough the sem, expectin to do 8k km at least
>>15427265
little commuter bike is good fun, not like its completely boring like most cruisers either, at least over 9000rpm its a fun bike to ride, i find myself wanting to go faster than is physically possible through corners when im riding cruisers, no amount of leaning off the bike can compensate for it either and that top speed of 180ish gets old considering how long it takes to get there and how unstable the bikes are at those speeds.
>>15426704

Hey guys, I've recently bought gear after being a squid for 2k miles. However, I can't seem to get the hang of boots. I've dropped my bike 3 times now because my foot keeps getting stuck somewhere. The boots + riding pants combination is a nightmare for me.
On top of that, because of the boot, i can never feel the actual shift lever so shifting seems really dodgy and I've fucked up a few times because i cant switch gears like I used to.
TLDR: Tips for a former squid on how to ride in gear.
>>15427273
The ones I have are pretty well balanced. I've had the chief up to 125mph ish and it was smooth and comfy. Like a big ol Lincoln Town car. And corners well enough for anything around here outside of hauling ass through the mountains.
I do grind the fuck outta the floorboards in the vtx though. It's fun kicking up sparks on that thing
Guys it's snowing and im scared, there isn't supposed to be snow here.
>>15427291
gitgud
>>15427291

>>15427292
yeah i find myself grinding the floor boards/pipes on my dads and brothers cruisers, the triumph 850 especially.

>>15427293
i hope you freeze
>>15427278
nothing wrong with that though am I right?
>>15427300
The chief sends to have a bit more ground clearance though. No issues there at all. But is all good, they serve there purpose well enough
>>15427314
Well i don't.
>>15427318
yeah maybe when im older and broken from crashing something more hektik.
>>15427315
stupid tomposter
>>15427323
I'm anyway old feeling. That's why I wanna just hurry up, move to Florida, get a gw, and bam!!! I'm good to go
>>15427327
Already*
>>15427327
yeah well im 23, i have no excuse to be riding a cruiser personally
>>15427336
To each their own. I like being comfy and taking my time on long road trips. I wanted an f6b but I don't need all those buttons yet
>>15427348
i only really have a road bike for when i can't ride dirt bikes, reason i bought my cb400 in the first place is i couldnt ride dirt at that time, sold 3 dirt bikes to buy the thing.
>>15427336
>tfw 19
>still want an akira crooser
>>15427354
Lol. Well is always good to have options man.
>>15427362
Is the nm4 considered a cruiser? Seems like a big ol scooter to me. Still neat looking though
>>15427368
i wouldnt mind buying a motard kit so i can do pic related to my 300, would be pretty neat riding that through the mountain roads around here
>>15427275
then why you girl homo
>>15427374
I like these a lot. Sadly around here the only ppl I see with um are nigs and they treat um like shit
>>15427368
Motor is not on swingarm, thus it's a bike
>>15427389
i don't exactly treat mine like it is a little princess, i throw it down hills if it comes to that, fuck holding onto the thing.
>>15427396
thinking about that the subframe on that bike got bent by being thrown from about here on this hill down to the bottom back in like 2011
>>15427396
Haha. Well nigs have a special way of just ruining everything they own. Idk how they do it.
>>15427411
ehh worse things have been done to bikes by people that aren't nigs
>>15427417
Sadly true.
But I guess everyone has their own taste. As long as they're happy with it fuck it idc
>>15427429
yeah thats it, its your bike after all.
>>15427235
anyone else have this problem
>>15427442
nah opposite
>>15427440
That's def unique lol
>>15427453
i like the old school choppers some people still get around on, i imagine they would be horrible to ride
>>15427462

>proceeds to talk shit about my baiku
The engine is a noticeable step up from my vulcan, absolutely love it.Initially i was afraid that if i got on anything bigger i would just instantly die. Rest of the bike is shit.
get back from my "test ride" which is only 8 miles.
>continues to talk shit about my baiku, tells me how the octane is better
>pissed off he knows he isnt going to make a sale
>eye fuck the super duke on the way out
So is this more or less a normal experience when test riding bikes.
>>15427976
I really wanna get the new DLC but I'm selling my Xbone and haven't got the money to rebuy on PC.
How is it better?
>>15427989
Don't think so, my local Honda dealer at least are super chill, they'll let you test ride any demo bikes they have happily, and you can arrange to try and used bikes they have for sale too.
>>15427933
>>15427989
Nah that sounds like a shit dealership m8. Find a better one.
>>15427989
>>proceeds to talk shit about my baiku
Should have walked right the fuck out.
disregarding the fact that Vulcans are pretty nice that's just poor manners.
>>15427989
I don't know.
But at the BMW dealer I visit I get treated like a proper customer, even though I ride a 15 y/o bike and I walk in with shabby clothes. They offered me a test ride once, but that was on a R1200GSA when I was only used to a R65.
If I got some money to burn I might try to test ride the S1000XR
>>15427990
>How is it better?
it is like a "trackmania" update.
I like it because it features a Lancia Stratos, a Fiat 500 and the dakar bike
and they all have a sprunk liverly, so sikk green
I wonder if moot still lurks /dbt/.
>>15428011
Nah I mean that bike specifically. I really want the Fiat 131/AW11 cross, and the Stratos thing. Hell I want all of them, but like, how is the Dakar bike?
>>15428018

>BMW dealer
>I get treated like a proper customer
can confirm this. Friend needed some parts so i wandered off to the motorcycle department to look around. I was wearing my wrenching-clothes (camopants and dirty t-shirt) basically looking like a hobo that could never afford a BMW. Salesman came over and asked if I need help, have questions or look for something particular and that I'm free to testsit any bike and just ask if I wanna testride and we set one up.
tl;dr BMW 10/10 customer service
>>15428109
Well, Honda owns Harley....
>>15428019
it's great fun, it's fast, looks like the KLX 450r dakar and is easy to jump over shit with it
you know when you ride against something in wheelie and fly like 2000 miles away?

The rx3 seems to get good reviews.
I don't remember exactly what great I was planning on getting, but I know I was looking at latigo boots and a kabuto kamui for the helmet.
