Reposting because no answers yet;
I'm thinking of buying a little suzuki a100. they're pretty rare here in my country and it needs next to no work besides cosmetic. that said i would do a proper check over of it once i got it.

Anyone got any critiques or tips before buying that could help me buy or not buy it? Besides

>>16165475
Don't pay too much for it
It's old, maybe kinda rare for your country but it's not a breathtaking bike when it was made and it isn't now. Just convince the seller you want to use it to try a restoration and that it's more trouble for them to keep than to sell it.

Does anyone have experience with reupholstering a bike seat?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sANLPfZ9BSY

I'd like to find a material like this vinyl (maybe not doing all the panels like these guys do, my seat's not that contoured) but buying just a yard off the roll and having it shipped to Australia is gonna get pricey. Can anyone suggest an alternative, even if it's just a different brand of similar vinyl? Or a US store with reasonable shipping for a yard of fabric across the pacific?

>>16165475
fine for city commuting otherwise this will annoy the shit out of you. I'd just restore and sell but don't expect a huge profit

>>16165499
Can't you find any other roll of weatherproof material a bit closer?

That's pretty comfy desu, the cancel blinkers buttons being in the right handlebar, seems pretty natural after a few weeks.

I've been considering a ct110 for ages
not sure what I'd do with it desu, but I love the simple design

>>16165499
Generic black vinyl is obscenely common everywhere. Try: spotlight, clark rubber, motor/marine trimmers. I once had a bike with the seat trimmed in like a coarse canvas. Shit was comfy because it never got hot.

>>16165555
I sent emails and made phone calls to a couple of distributors. Most didn't seem interested unless I wanted to buy a whole roll of thirty odd yards, which I half expected. and others just didn't get back to me. This stretch vinyl seems dead easy to use so It's kinda my first choice of what I do the job with.

>>16165568
Oh gee a canvas seat sounds nice actually. It gets very damp and rains a lot here though so I'd need to wax treat it, but could be nice for summertime. No spotlight or clark rubber near me but I could make the journey to look. Or maybe the marine trimmer in town would sell me a piece of off cut if i asked nicely.

Thanks both of you

It's not impulse buying if I have a legitimate reason to need a vehicle, right?

>>16165687
It still is an impulse buy. Don't buy a bike because you fell that you have to have it right now. It should be something you purchase without any pressure to get it ASAP.

Or give it a week and really think about it. Just to make sure you are not rushing into a decision,

>Just talked to the shop, it'll be probably 10 days and still cost $550 for purchase and install.

JAYSUS KROIST! What special supercomputer ECU is that??? If stock, give up the automotive hobby unless you are wealthy because whatever third world shithole you live in is insanely expensive. Alternate option, they saw you coming and knew they could go balls deep on the first date with Scotch Bonnet pepper sauce and broken glass for lube.

How much is labor and why is a shop changing out an ECU?

This is why I DIY. I've bought, parted then crushed Accords for less money and so has every other used car lot mech and many hobbyists in Burgerland.

>>16165807
It's a new manufacture for a 21 year old car. I'll probably just buy a reman and replace it myself

>>16165828
I've used plenty of old ECUs on old vehicles and have been wrenching since before EFI was a thing. . No need for a reman, and there is very little one can do to "remanufacture" an ECU other than cleaning it up.

Save your money and spend on manuals, tools and better deals on parts. You'll be able to afford many more toys. Most mechanics have more personal vehicles than they can get around to finishing. Toys don't usually get you tools, but tools will reliably get you toys.

So how do USB chargers on bikes work? I don't trust myself to cut into wires or nothin, is there a thing I can hook up straight to the battery with a switch to charge phone?

You can, but it will discharge your battery.

>>16168257
Anyway to avoid that without cutting into the bikes wires?

>>16168290
You just hool it up to the battery. But i like i said before it will discharge the battery, the best way is to connect it to the ignition switch.

>>16168290
>>16168308

You can wire a switch in line with the charger as well, any 12v/20 amp should be fine enough.

>>16168321
Yeah. Now i remember that they even sell ones with the switch.

>>16168334

Might you guys have a link to something with a switch? The only thing I've found is https://www.3brpowersports.com/products_TAPP_LITE.php

Hey /dbt/, I just wanted to stop by and do my round of daily reminders. Someone has to keep you faggots in check

Daily reminders:

1. There is absolutely no reason to ride a supermoto. If you want street tires, ride a street bike. If you want off-road tires, ride a dirt bike. If you want the best of both worlds, just get a dual sport. Only retards ride supermotos.

2. Sport bikes are the only bikes worth owning. You are allowed to get other bikes, but only as an accessory to your primary sport bike. Sport bike tires offer a minimum width of 180 therefore offering the most traction and therefore being the safest type of motorcycle.

3. BMW makes the best motorcycles. They might not be very reliable, but they are the best when they work correctly.

4. GT-R>Corvette

Hey /o/ second level n00b here. Have had pic related for ~6 months. Tempted by ideas of a bike I learn shitty wheelies, ride generally wherever, hop curbs, drop and abuse. Basically did that with a scooter in asialand. DRZ400sm looks sweet, and I can tell it's a meme here, but how you anons really feel about it?

I love my bike, but the idea of customizing and generally being able to do more junk is tempting. Advice on DRZ or other bikes that fit the desired description?

>>16168602

I'm naturally a bit risky, so don't feel like it's in my best interest to get something too crazy fast. I've heard people say DRZs, groms, shit like that is a "blast" at all speeds. I'm also in a small city if that makes a difference

Any dual sport will do that just fine.

>>16168673
Please do not listen to the drz memery, they're fantastic bikes, built like tanks and a cheap easy way to get into dual sporting/supermoto's if that interests you. get one used, don't pay over 4k for a REALLY good condition one, have it inspected at a garage before buying or bring a mechanic friend. Honestly this really goes for any bike, but you said drz and I know first hand they're wondrous.

Hey /dbt/, any good dual sport or supermoto bikes for $1500 or less used?

I'm a poor college student so I can't spend too much more.

>>16168790
no. You might be able to find a Ninja 250 or GS500 for that price.

>>16168790
DR650

>>16167821
They're cool little bikes, some dude on campus has one and it says its been dead reliable. For that price I'd totally go for it.

Get literally any used dual sport then
I don't think DRZ's are bad but I do believe in the meme tax (aka usually priced higher because they're popular)
>>16168790
depends on your area
I got a DR350 for $500 more, low miles and runs great. I've seen plenty of people get used dual sports for $1500 or less, usually pretty decent condition.
For something cheap from the 90's/early 2000's...look for KLR250, XT350, and DR350/650.
The first two are kickstart only and don't have much aftermarket. DR350SE has electric start and a strong following and pretty good aftermarket.

>>16168825
fucking rotated images
shows up normal on desktop
brb kms

>>16168685
Thanks for specific advice, anon. I keep hearing that price point online, but on CL seeing prices much higher or 4k with 20k+ miles. Is there a mile range that I should shoot for? But I also think I should be prepared to wait longer for deals.

>>16168680
I'm kinda leaning away from dual sports because I like the idea of something lighter, but will look at some of these more. I'm also 5'8" / 173cm so that rules out some of the bigger ones. Recs on that if you got em, but appreciate the help already thanks anons

>>16168825
o wow, 1997 DR350 on my CL for $1300, I need to sell my current bike, but I want it.

Any non-googlable advice for buying one of these? Miles? Or should it pretty much be taken to a dealer?

>>16168830
>I'm kinda leaning away from dual sports
>I want a DR-Z400SM
You realize that's exactly what the DR-Z is right? It's a dual sport with silly 17" wheels thrown on it.

dr350 is a good basic bike under 20k miles and its likely good to go
can be bored out to a 440 later on too

>>16168830
>I'm kinda leaning away from dual sports because I like the idea of something lighter,
dual sports are pretty light...
DRZ is a tall ass bike, at least 320lbs
DR350SE = ~286lbs dry
KLR250 = ~260lbs dry
XT350 = ~265lbs dry
KLX250 = ~270lbs dry
CRF250L = ~320lbs dry
I'm 5'9, DR350 with lowering link and worn suspension is plenty low for flat feet, makes it cushy for road use
>>16168851
I've got a '97 (SE), great bike. '98 and '99 models have better suspension
You don't have to take it to a dealer if you can do basic inspection
lower miles are better, post the link or pics/info

that the best you can find around you? you can do better
go as new and low miles as you can get in your price range
imo you'll be happier in the long run with something newer...bigger following online, no chasing old parts, won't have to wrench it as often as an old bike
then again, it's hard to find a competent seller on cl who's thorough with maintenance
ad is old so it might be sold...but if you don't find anything might as well give that bike a shot
>>16168907

yeah the moose seem to be best deal

>>16168869
Ha no I didn't realize the distinction. I'm still new to all the terms and categories. I was leaning toward DSs initially, but don't like how big and bulky a lot of them seem. I looked at the DR650, but it didn't seem to be as well regarded as the DRZ. Plus I think I'm too small for it.

Got any good recs for entry level bikes or general info to read up on going into this sort of thing?

guys, been thinking about starting with enduro in my freetime

>>16168896
>>16168935
no prob. check out advrider/thumpertalk for threads on those bikes, plenty of good info and resources
DR650 has a helllaaaaaaaaa devoted following. Same as KLR650 but that's a big beast
the DS's I listed aren't big and bulky, trust me.
there's also TW200, low seat height, fat rear tire but slower. also has a good following
good luck

>>16168685
Fuck off. Ruining peoples riding experience and wasting their money.
DRZ is slow, shit suspension, and way over priced.
Fuck off with this meme.

>>16168973

For four grand that's a great dual sport that'll last a long time.

So I bought these gloves hoping they'd last me a while but China quality control is so fucking bad apparently that the left glove's stitching doesn't even align with the right one and one of the sliders on the left glove pushes into my finger when I grip with it.
Any one have a good $150ish recommendation for gloves?

>>16169132
look for some top tier gloves on clearance/closeout sales. I got Alpinestars GP Tech gloves for about $130 from sportbiketrackgear.

>>16169177
I'll check them out.
I had a bad experience with Astars hopefully it doesn't happen again, the first gloves I bought were the SMX1 and a hole formed between my index finger and thumb.
Though my friend says that's normal for Astars lol.

>>16169199
Yeah I hear the base level astars gloves tend to fall apart. I crash tested mine tho and they held up pretty well. I was putting a lot of weight on my hand as I slid and got a tiny little hole in my thumb but the palm held up pretty well. I still use them.

I started out with some Scorpion leather gloves which cost $80. Stitches started popping within a couple weeks and they had big holes within a year. At this point half of my palm is missing. Also they didn't hold up to a crash nearly as well. Just a small slide ripped right through the palm.

>been wanting some nice, comfortable, waterproof boots for street riding

Also a bike is not a feather, it will damage cars. You know what happens when a large animal hits the front of a car?

>>16169576
The laws are there for ill-considered reasons that do not apply in all cases. More often than not, the reason is "we want more money". You enforce the consequences of your actions by cowtowing to self-described "authority".

>nigger
The nigger does not obey because he has no mind for consequences. The ubermensch does not obey because they understand the nature of consequences all too well.

And then you have the true untermensch, stuck in between. They know that consequences exist, but can't wrap their heads around them either being absolute and just, unjust and to be fought, or not being there at all. The idea of the arbitrary, the meaningless, the world without justice or injustice, it all sends them into a frenzy. Replace right and wrong with enforced or not, the whites flip out. Replace black and white with a pleasant shade of brown, the whites flip out. It's hilarious.

>>16169577
True.

Unless the teacher finds out. And if they do, you can run and hope you didn't leave identifying evidence, or sic the red hordes on that putz and watch his city crumble.

>cbr and gaysexr plebs literally butthurt

how does it feel to ride a machine that was made for the sole purpose of dancing on the edge all day in what would be a death race without armored and airbagged leather suits and modern helmets in a desperate bid to appease a crowd of spectators....at 65mph, where the only crowd watching you has blue flashing lights and guns?

You have experience with Romania?

Yeah, I have some relatives in Arad and I visit them every couple years.

>>16169891
Cool. I'm curious how it is for a single western tourist on a bike. I know a girl there and want to visit her in the spring, but I don't know if it's safe and what to avoid.
