Alright so Standards are pretty much not sold in the US anymore and my dream bike CB1300 isn't sold here either

the closest bike to it here in the US is the CB500F. The problem is it has the Angry Ant headlight that all """""""""""""""""""naked sports"""""""""""""""""""""" have.

Would it be possible for me to get a classic standard headlight put on? Or is that headlight stuck fast to the bike?

>>16157658
the closest bike to a CB1300 is a CB500?

Don't you have GSX1400, XJR1300?

>>16157658
Looks like it's mounted to the forks. Just find another bucket headlight with fork mounts the same diameter as yours. May have to fiddle with gauges and such to get it to work

>>16157635
Why do you care what others think?

>>16157635
that's kind of a whole different bike tbqh. It will be as cool as any other bike from the 60's.

that's pretty cool man, looks like a fun bike, keep it.

I need a cheap wind/waterproof outer layer of pants to wear for cold weather riding. Any suggestions?
>hard mode: won't get melted by exhaust which is routed right by my leg
>god mode: won't rip the first time I inevitably fall while trail riding

I can find waterproof textile jackets on clearance for under $100 all the time but pants always seem to be over $100 even for the base level shit.

>apparently it'll be plated in the states, with extra emissions junk.
Source? I don't see turn signals or other street equipment on it.
Since 2007 they redid their naming system in the US to where EXC was their street-legal lineup, and their off-road-only enduros (previously EXC) was changed to XC or XC-W. Strange that now they would go back to calling them all EXCs again.
Also looking through their online catalogue it seems they aren't releasing KTM XCs with linkage suspension anymore, but those are going solely under the Husqvarna name now.
>What do you think the maint intervals will look like?
Like last year's 450XC-W, because that's what it is. Very maintenance intensive.

>>16157817
Oh shit. Is that a famas?

Should I get these for winter riding both on and off road, as well as off-bike winter wearing?

>>16158091
if you wear knee armor under them they should be good.
offroad riding may shred them if youre a trail blazer

>>16158110
I don't think they have enough room underneath to wear knee armor.
>might shred them
Yeah I fall a lot. Are these basically the same material used to make parachute pants?

>>16158141
they're usually pretty lightweight material and don't fare well with falls at any speed or sharp sticks
unless they tout the material as heavy duty, its gonna be thin as shit

So I'm finally taking my MSF course, 21 years old so I know the rules of the road and shit already. I want a helmet that can be usable for dirt biking but also on the road.

Do I have to buy two helmets? Are there any that would work for both?

>>16158325
Just buy a bunch of helmets. It's nice to have options

>>16158308

on second thought nevermind that's even uglier. The front fairing on the firebolt doesn't do it for me either tho.

>>16158325
I started with a HJC FG17 on my dual sport, with sunglasses under the clear visor. Nice for colder rides and long highway stretches.
Then I bought a fox racing v1 with clear and tinted goggles. I wear this 95% of the time now. It doesn't flap around in the wind as much as you'd think. You can always see and breathe no matter where you are. No dust in eyes

>>16158406
bikini fairing makes me feel something fierce.

all depends on what the market is like when I am buying though, I really want a sportster but a buell is like a sportster that just got really good.

>>16158411
Okay those are pretty cheap I was planning on dropping a good 500+ dollars on my road helmet and at this point just buying a separate dirtbike helmet since they're cheaper

>>16158355

yeah..don't do that. from what i've seen, there isn't much increase in safety as you go up in price for helmets (unlike boots, etc). Stay away from ridiculously cheap helmets though.
I tried both of my helmets on in a dealership before ordering them online. It's the only way to know if it'll be comfortable for your head.

>>16158427
Whatcha drinking?

>>16158439
Okay that helps I was expecting having to drop that much. I'm probably going to try some on in a shop and pickup some gloves and hopefully a jacket. I'm not too worried about helmets since they should be fairly universal yea? However I'm 193cm and pretty slim so jackets are a bitch to get online, same with gloves since I have spider fingers

It goes. I fly outta the country Tuesday.

The size shouldn't vary much by model, but your experience with each will. I wear the same size as my dad but we can't stand each other's helmets.

Does anyone have a list of gear or stuff I'll need for a cross country roadtrip on a bike this summer?

I'm not new to riding or mechanics, but I am new to camping. I'll be able to buy food and such as I go, but not sure what I need beyond a tent and don't want to forget anything.

Also, should I travel down the west coast, or the east coast? I'm going from Minnesota to Texas for college.

>>16158600
depends on the bike and his gear, I probably wouldn't feel nearly as warm riding my buddy's naked instead of my bike with a windshield at that temperature

A wr250x will neck and neck a drz without a big bore. Besides, my wr250x already has a full pipe and pcv. Why would I sell that to buy a drz?

>>16159154
Maybe a bone stock DRZ, with all the pathetic stock components.
Give it a pipe, bigger airbox hole and rejet and there's no contest

>>16159166
But once again, why would I bother buying something very slightly better that's a lot more expensive here, then doing a bunch of mods to it which would be more expensive, just to add up to something very marginally more powerful? The amount of money I would lose doing that I could just do a big bore on my wr250x and spend the remainder on dragon dildos.

>>16157635
only internet contarians. classic bikes are the style right now. the popular, idealized image of motorcycling has bucket headlights, bullet instruments, and twin-shock swingarms.

bike manufacturers other than harley and triumph are oblivious to this and keep trying to sell us sporty looking bikes that aren't nearly as fast as they let on

>>16159128
Any VFR. Basically sportbikes for old people with cruiser-esque ride quality (and compromised handling to match). They're quiet as all fuck stock (for the old timers. they don't like a racket.) and you will never find a used one that hasn't had a loud pipe installed.

The answer could be fucking anything.

Does it look stupid to put my feet up on the passenger pegs to make myself more aerodynamic?
I ride a dual sport btw

>>16159252
you are a stupid person so whatever you look like at any time is "looking stupid" anyway.

>>16159252
not if your dual sport is a Suzuki DR-Z400S (also, wr450s are not dualsports).

see, they only look like that to cruiser riders. sportbikes are so popular, at least in the US, that a sportbike is a "motorcycle" and a cruiser is a "harley".

>>16159302
I live in the US and I don't ride a cruiser. They still look like flaming faggots to me.
Or at least they act that way, bent over the bike with their asses in the air, with their tight leather onesies

>>16159345
No real proper way to do it, just wash it. Careful when pressure washing you don't hit any tubes or crevices directly cause you might get water where water isn't meant to be.

I normally just fill a bucket with car wash soap and water then sponge it, dry it with microfiber, clean and lube chain after.
