get a pit bike, they can be had for extremely cheap prices second hand, the engine mounts are all standardized on them so it's easy to mix and match engines and you can run them with knobbies or slicks depending on what type of riding you want to do.

Motocompos and z50s and what not you'll be paying out the arse for the meme appeal.

First oil change done on
New True SV

doing this one at 300 miles, one at 600 and switching to synthetic at 1500

Why is it bad to redline my bike for extended periods of time?

>>I ride a cbr300r on the highway alot

Pls explain. Bonus for how to prevent excess wear.

>>16256491
Redline, as in banging off the limiter?
Yeah that's bad.

Your 300 will be fine, it'll likely be doing 2/3 RPMs in top, but that's just how it is.

>>16256498
I guess not redline then, but about 9-10k when the redline is around 11k

>>16256503
Look up a relevant honda motorsports forum and find a mechanic or someone else who has ridden for years and owns the 300.

Ask about switching to another weight of oil, sprocket changes etc and see what they have to say.

/dbt/, as fun as it is to post in, is primarily for shooting the shit and banter.

Genuine discussion is usually best left elsewhere although someone here may end up helping you I've found it's best to ask multiple places.


Stay off of reddit, though, the memes are real reddit is a pointless shithole.

Hey faggots, I just want to report in and say that you guys should seriously considering picking up a miata if you have the extra cash. It complements motorcycle riding very well. It's almost comical how small and refined these are. I guess there is no point if you live in an area with perfect weather year round but being able to drive this thing during the winter is a perfect extension of riding IMO.

Listen bud, all I am saying is that it's a very fun and engaging driving experience unlike what you will find in most cars. If you live in an area plagued by winter and want an extension of motorcycle riding, considering buying a miata. It's dirt cheap, fun, and a bit more practical

All second hand ones are beaten to shit. Brand new is only $15,000 NZD which is very reasonable.

It has a 2 year warranty.. 2 years of no worries.

I think you're confusing the sprocket cover with being the back cylinder, the back cylinder is underneath the seat, SV650s are 90 degree V-twins canted backward so the weight distribution is more central.

>>16256711
It has liter-like power delivery without liter-like dissatisfaction with never being able to come close to what your bike is capable of outside of trackdays, plus 600-like weight and handling. Why the fuck wouldn't you buy it? Just, why?

I got a 2013 750 new. I ended up just tracking it all the time cause I lived in Chicago and there are no fun roads to ride really.

That said it's a great bike. Reliable, predictable, compliant, great powerband, easy to work on. You shouldn't be worried about getting a modern one second hand - gixxers are built to take a beating and you'll easily find guys with high mileage ones and no complaints. I used to have a k6 750 with upwards of 30k miles on it and it ran perfectly fine - just mind to the chain and service it correctly.

>>16256826
Depends on crankshaft angle as much as cyllinder angle.

If it's some shitty budget kawasaki with a 180º crank don't expect anything great. The africa twin has a 270º crank with a balance shaft and is significantly smoother for it.

If you can afford it, why would that be a problem? Two bikes means choice when you go to ride, and possibly a loaner if you have a friend who rides and wants to switch things up a bit or doesn't yet ride but wants to learn.

If you've already had a cbr, you should probably go bigger than a 250, if you are able to respect the power of a vehicle, and you're only interested in sportbikes, look into the 600's, unless you have some sort of license restrictions.

>>16257194
I just looked up what cbr would be for a worldwide view, not sure if you thought it was a bike or some california bearing ratio

Cbr here (holland) is the institution that is very critical into testing you to give you your drivers licence, basically, they are the ones that give you permission to get a drivers licence from our friends at the government.

Already had a licence for a cage, but folks keep borrowing my car without permission. I'm pretty certain they can't drive this.

Is your opinion on the bike still the same after knowing this?

>>16257448
the ninja 300 is more powerful than its 250 counter part but not my much.

it's a smoother ride and the extra CC's help with the torque down low, but it's still not a very torquey engine.

It's super happy up at high revs, it's got a high rev ceiling at like 14k or so. It's fuel injected too so that already makes it a lil easier to live with than its very cold blooded sister the ninja 250 and has better fuel economy.

Like the ninja 250, it has little more go at 75+ speeds than say the thumper on the CBR300R. and Can probably get up to 90-94 before it feels like you're all spent.

Overall, its pretty comparable to an R3, and you can probably get one for cheap but not as cheap as you could a ninja 250.

I would say its a great for that small class, but doesn't compete with say a 500cc or 600cc bike at all.

Consider it a modern "improved" ninja 250. It runs along the same capabilities.

>>16257415

Honestly i think you would be best off getting one of pic related with a restrictor on it.

Restricts their power to around 45hp and once you are completely comfortable with that power you can upgrade the bike by removing the restrictor not selling it and finding a bigger bike.

300's are like a scam, if you don't live in a country that requires you to ride one by law there is no point in getting one.

it died. Low compression and possibly some kind of spark timing issue I can't figure out. I didn't expect a compression issue to turn it from running perfectly and strong one minute to suddenly dying and never starting back again but maybe. I won't be using it as a primarily street bike anymore once I fix it anyway. That was the biggest waste ever.

>>16257657
does your EXC have PDS shock or linkage?

>>16257655
>That was the biggest waste ever.
I do agree.
Anywho sounds like you cooked the exhaust valves/blew the head gasket because you had too much oil in the engine, not an overly expensive fix.

PDS, only the new mx bikes/huskys have linkage rear shocks

>>16257674
I don't think I ever overfilled it. No signs of burning oil, blowing exhaust into the cooling system, or mixing oil with coolant. My valves were still in spec too. Maybe my intake valves were so worn out (they are soft in these engines) that they couldn't seal anymore even with proper clearances.

>>16257676

the XC line for the past couple years had linkage, at least in the US.

>>16257686
That could do it, if it were my bike the first thing i would have done to it is replaced the valves with stainless steel, even cheaper fix anywho.
Normally compression loss is a broken gasket though, you sure it hasnt got any oil leaking around the head?

>>16257691
no that wouldn't be enough to make the bike stop running and as I said the cam was exactly where it should be.

>>16257697
I don't know. When I get the money to actually buy parts I'm going to pop the head off for inspection then most likely send it to someone who specializes in these engines to have new valve seats cut and stainless steel valves fitted. My cylinder wall might be scuffed up too so I'll probably have to do something about that. I've never rebuilt an engine before so I don't know if I just need it replated or what. If it's not too expensive I'd like to increase the bore size to the same as the 525EXC.
