Might as well dbt until that time.

so, i got The job as a pizzaboy
Any tips?

>>16129546
don't feel like you need to rush, just take it easy.

>>16129546
fuck no i ain't tipping you. you should get paid enough hourly, that shit ain't my fuckin problem.

>>16129546
Quit while you still can

>>16129554
That's one of the things i'm worried about
Should i ask for hourly or per-delivery?

On one hand i could make more hourly on slow days, on the other i'll get more deliveries on week-ends

Reminder that Honda, MV Agusta, and Kawasaki are all god-tier and Yamaha is trash.

>>16129560
Both pizza shops I worked at paid hourly and per delivery. The delivery pay only slightly exceeded cost for fuel so it was better to just spend longer doing each delivery to save fuel expense.

I've always been frightened of VFRs due to the complexity, but that's new enough not to need any major work for at least 5 years of riding.

rear tire blowout anon here from last night

I don't have a center/rear stand to get my tires off
what's the best way to ghetto rig a stand for my bike? How do I even get my bike up on there after the fact?

I have a few 5 gallon buckets and a milk crate
It's a cb250 so it's not very heavy but it's still heavy for a single person

>>16129696
Either find a way to roll it up onto the crate, or hang it from a rafter with some strong straps.
>lift the front up and slide the crate under it.
>roll the bike forward until its centered on the crate
It will take some muscle but if my girl can do it with my cbr, you should be able to do it with a cb250.

I want a bike I won't have to constantly think about not having made the perfect choice (I'm like that with literally everything)

I understand the Suzukis V2 engine has a more usable torque range, but it has 25 bhp less power than the Yamaha. I also don't like the V2 sound as much as the screaming F1 sound of the I4.

But, and it's a big but(t), I don't want to constantly rev the bike close to redline to get good acceleration in the city. So in my mind, the SV seems like the more "sensible" choice, if you get what I mean

what's ur favorite cage u can get for 6000 Euro that's NOT a VAG products

You don't have to constantly rev a 600cc i4 near redline to get good acceleration in the city. You can keep it at like 4k rpm all the time and it will still keep up with traffic. I4s aren't slow on the bottom, they're just rockets up top which makes it seem that way comparatively.

Tfw you're selling your 600 so you can pay off credit card and buy new shit for your new cruiser. I think I'll buy a panigale as my second bike next to my cruiser once i turn 26 and can afford full insurance on it.

I know, I can probably already do that on my 48 hp bike, but I'm really looking for a bit more top end, last time I went camping with my mates, they both shrekt me on the autobahn because I didn't feel comfortable going 160 km/h for 2 hours (and I would have had to fill up the tank thrice probably)

If you get an i4 600, your top end will be 160-170 mph (260kph). If you get a v2, your top end would be 130-140 mph (217 kph) but you'll have more fun with it around the city because of the torque at low rpm. Ive had both and they are both fun but given the choice id take a v2 over a i4 for the streets because you can still keep up with your mates but also have more fun on the streets. Then again we don't have the autobahn in America so on second thought id take the i4 for the autobahn.

>>16129837
Oh i forgot to add, y not get any Ducati? V twin but high top speed and lot of torque without revving it into oblivion.

>>16129849
too much oil in the reservoir that has overflowed into the airbox? check your air filter

>>16129830

Try harder, you need to treat it right.

>>16129817
Ein kurzer erster Gang kompensiert ein geringeres Drehmoment.
Eine beschissene Drehmomentpolare kann allerdings nur ein CVT ausgleichen.

>>16129837
>260 km/h top speed
is it really that high on the Yamaha? I read 220 somewhere
And I honestly don't know how much city riding I'll be doing next year, as I will somehow have to commute to university, which I have done once on my current bike, which was not fun at all.
and an even more emberassing detail I forgot to mention: my mates were both in cars

>>16129851
While I certainly do find Ducatis very sexy, most of them in my price range (2500-3000€) are rather old Monsters, and I have only read bad things about them. Also, I really want to get something with EFI

Suzuki is almost as good as MV, but they don't look quite as good.

I'm 18, 19 in late July and from the UK. I have my cbt booked for 21st of November, so I figured I could do that, buy an A1 bike like a YBR125 to learn on, whilst also taking motorcycle lessons to get better, and then when I turn 19 immediately do my A2 exam (without bothering to do the A1 exam) so I can sell the YBR and buy an A2 bike like the GS500. Would that be financially feasible? I am considering simply waiting until I turn 19 and not bothering with all that, but it would be good to have the transport available now and also give me some time to learn the ropes on a slowbike before moving onto something bigger. What's the resell value like on a YBR125?

>>16130106
The fuck kind of turbo is that?

>>16130136
It's a
Throttle
Position
Sensor
For ride-by-wire bikes

>>16130153
So it only makes boost when you run wires to it? That sounds like a fire hazard tbqhwufam

>>16130167
It turns the movement you make with the right hand in magical pixies that make the wheel turn

>>16130153
I prefer a steel wire from my throttle to the carbs, but to each their own.

>>16130171
So it makes boost when you're on throttle? That's how normal turbos work. I don't see the problem here.

>>16130173
I like it a lot, but wish they fixed the lag in city modes
Touring mode is based as fuck, though
It eliminates suddenly movements and shit

Does an EFI bike need to heat up? My SV turns off when I insert the second gear at first.

Also is it normal for the SV to need to hold the clutch when turning it on? Can't do it with just the button.

I've brought it to the mech, let's hope I can use it from Friday.

>>16130242
A lot of bikes need the clutch in to start, my suzuki is like this too. And do you mean the bike stalls when you put it in second?

>>16130242
>Does an EFI bike need to heat up?
To some extent yes. All engines will experience expansion of parts as they warm up so they will work best once they get to operating temperature. Take it easy until it gets warmed up.
>My SV turns off when I insert the second gear at first.
Wut?
>Also is it normal for the SV to need to hold the clutch when turning it on? Can't do it with just the button.
Yeah that's a common safety mechanism.

>>16130263
I thought so but the mechanic said it shouldn't need the clutch.
What do you mean exactly with stalls? It's not becasue of wrong clutch handling. It just shuts off. It seems to happen only at the beginning, that's why I asked about heating it up.
>>16130267
Yeah, no.

>>16130291
When you shift out of neutral into gear or when you shift from first to second gear?

>>16130306
First to second.
I say it's not me because when I had to repeteadly stop and start because of traffic it was fine.

Two hours until I need to be up and getting ready for my L's test, haven't slept a wink yet because I'm so nervous.

>>16130328
Thats odd for an efi bike. Is there any kind of mod done to it? Maybe a bad map on a power commander could run too lean. Which improves a bit as it warms up.

>>16130375
Not that I know of. Knowing the owner I'd say no.

>>16130338
It's easy m8, don't worry about it. Worrying about it will make you more nervous which will cause more mistakes.
If you fuck up, don't let it get to you, just handle the situation calmly and in a safe manner. I don't know how it is where you live, but if you stall the bike, so long as you restart it promptly and do your checks before setting off/manoeuvring again, they'll either let it slide or only mark you down slightly (in comparison to a panicked, unsafe handling of the situation).

>>16130729
I mean, vtwins aren't everyone's favorite. But suzuki's 800 is a bit different. Still has great torque down low, with power being really linear all the way up to redline. Makes most power between 6k and 6.5k I believe. It does like to rev and doesn't feel as 'lazy' as others I've ridden. And some people love the sound believe it or not.

Hah, not even close

I have an old XT 350 1994.
Right side flickers front and back not working. Low beam headlights not working.
Front brakes are oil free.
Back brakes can`t stop for shit.
Body panels held on with cable ties.
Spark plug got stripped, so we drilled the engine and installed a heli-coil. Couldn`t get out all the metal left behind.
Nothing on the dash works.
Tires , front and back, 50%.
Been serviced once about 4 years ago then stood for three.
Bike accelerates until about 60-70 kms and can`t go faster.
Petrol Tank has a dent on each side that reduces capacity by about 1 litre.
Everything is rusted, not much paint left on anything.
Technically still road legal until it must be tested again.

I fixed it up so I could learn to wheelie. It was my first bike that took me to work when I was 17. I love the thing but it is full shit bike. I fully expect the engine to blow with in a year. I still can`t wheelie.

If you put sugar in your tank and run the bike for a few minutes, it winterizes your tank, fuel lines and pistons for winter. It helps create a seal around your piston rings, protecting them from damage while the bike isn't running.

I forgot to add that my front fork seals are also leaking and bunch smoke comes out of were the exhaust connects to the engine. It used to get about 10L/150km not sure what it does now. It also overheats if I do 60kph for longer than 30 mins it kills it.

Still love that shit bike, a new one, would be what I'd give my teen son if I had one.

On a side note, how close are naked street bikes to riding feel to a KLR650. I need a faster new bike but I am scared a sport will ruin mine spine.

Well bikes are already small and hard to see to start with, then those chinkshit integrated tail lights only make it worse. They generally replace the stock light with one half the size, and then even use half of that for the indicator which is so close to center it's hard to differentiate anyway

F4i was only Honda's sportiest 600 for 2 years and it was never a "supersport" in the way the Fireblade or R6 were, it was sold alongside the RR for 4. When the bike was designed they made some concessions to being able to race it in the meantime, particularly with the "Sport" model, but they were already working on a real track supersport.

The F series had been their premier supersport 600 since the 80s. How is it not a supersport?
>but muh clipons mounted above the triple clamp
That's the way all bikes with standard forks were.

Serious question. Do Germans beat Americans or other way round? Imo i always see Germans kick Americans ass. Football, Weapons just to name a few. Also Germans ride rougher and better.Americans do courses for bike riding and always wear gear. Just curious.

I'm looking for a scooter because I don't know how to drive a full blown motorcycle. Plus If I get something over 50cc I have to get a full blown license which i don't need and will be difficult for me. Maybe 3000 is overkill for something like that, but again I don't know much. So to rephrase my question, what is a good quality 50cc scooter I can pick up in japan?

Yes I have if I'm honest.
Last convention I went to was 2 or 3 years ago and I haven't really been watching much recently. When did the bd set come out?

>>16131296
Dye hair light blonde and wear light blue contact lenses. Unless you already are Aryan übermensch.

Are you man enough to crash and ride with fucked fairings, or do you put your riding season on hold if you ever tip the bike over and wait for paint?

The 300kph agreement means nothing can ever dethrone the Hayabusa, and the Hayabusa is only profitable because they've barely changed the bike in forever because of that.

These are all things that Honda had already changed on their previous R and RR models, it was intentionally not heavily track focused.

>>16131397
>wait for paint

that's pretty childish if the damage is only really cosmetic
