i'm a shortass, keep that in mind

>>16273865
I think a 600 is only worth it if you're gonna go tracking or you have some really crazy twisties.

otherwise I'd just rather a 750 or a larger displacement bike for cruisin' and what not because I think in order to make 600s perfect for the road you want to go -1/+2 which will make them less cruisy on highways and what not.

No. 600s are pretty fast but not uncontrollable rockets like everybody makes them out to be. The power comes on really controllably and they're even docile if you don't rev it out everywhere.
I kind of wish I got a liter...

>>16273980

This, does anyone else remember that time BMW made a special snow flake endurance bike while trying to change a formula that was built and developed by multiple companies over 3 decades because bmw knows best?

Then they made a terrible bike that got them laughed out of the offroad world in such embarrassment that they did not even bother trying again, Good times.

>>16274005
BMW motorcycles are the best way to spend a lot of money on an overvalued motorcycle. Which, being a vehicle, will depreciate.

Sure you could spend half the money on a Japanese equivalent, but BMW has at least twenty electro autistic systems to adjust, heated grips for your uncallused upper middle class hands. It also has matching gear that's overpriced, so you can tell everyone at the office you ride a BMW.
And then never, ever ride it beyond 50% of your capabilities because you might drop it.

This is why I stick to old, shitty Japanese bikes. I can thrash them, rebuild them, drop them and my country's healthcare foots the bill. Because I don't live in a backward shithole.

Just buy an old KLR, XT, DRZ and trash the fucking thing.

>>16274104
Acquiring parts and accessories with BMW isnt a problem they have a pretty robust network compared to many. But you're right that they are more pricey.

>>16274104
There's no BMW dealers in my area but the dealer in my nearest city carries tons of KTMs and KTM parts. Even better is there's an online dealer stationed about 40 miles from here which carries KTM parts so I can order online and have them arrive at my house within a day or 2.

Then you aren't buying OEM KTM parts.
nobikes don't know it but OEM KTM parts are pretty much the best on the market, that is why they are so expensive.
An OEM KTM Piston for an example cost twice the price of a Wiseco piston, The KTM Piston also lasts twice as long.

Nah. An OEM cylinder for my DRZ would be $660 from a dealer. I can get a new OEM cylinder and piston for my EXC for $544 from the same dealer. Also the comparable gaskets are quite a bit cheaper ($4.23 for KTM base gasket for example, or $19.96 for a DRZ base gasket.)

newer 600s are putting anywhere from 110-120hp to the wheel which is a bit too much power in my opinion for a beginner. this is the territory where you can loop yourself if you're an idiot.

older 600s are putting anywhere from 90-100hp to the wheel with even less torque so it's harder to fuck your day up.

they are still fast though. I think what catches most people off guard is the precision of the throttle and fuel injected system.

old gsxr or even an f4i would be cool.

Found a cheap 2008 SV650 w/6600 miles for $2250, but it was dropped and got this rash and likely a small dent on the tank. How much would it cost to fix?

Also wasn't the last year for naked SV650s 2007? Or 2008?

>>16275078
the dent is there to stay, you can price out a new tank or slap a decal over it and leave it.

oh sup kyklx anon. ood to know. yeah I'm tempted to go for the $130 pleb ones before I get the bike, for safety reasons. but fly boots seem to protect you from turtles so unless you completely trash your flys I understand.

The forks and triples might be bent. Bikes that are down and slide for just a little usually hit the curb.

What's the best way to check? I already sent him a email asking if it has any rash on the forks or tail. I'm hoping it was just a unlucky slide. It has no sliders on it unless he took them off. Link related, I'd guess the other pics are pre-crash.

take the fairings off, get it on wheel stands/the centerstand and make sure everything measures out equally on each side of the bike with the wheels straight

triples and forks can usually be eyeballed

Make your own then if you're destitute.
Any market which is niche and requires R&D is always going to have a huge cost mark up.

>>16275381
damn, i've actually been thinking of looking at a dirt bike recently

>>16275448
The thing is, you don't use the panniers themselves to store stuff. They're just fashion, and maybe waterproofing. You're meant to use separate soft bags that fit inside them, and take them with you when you leave the bike (they're usually set up as a set that works with or as a backpack)

>>16275451
Pannier R&D is intro to CAD tier. Thank fuck ugly cases are fashionable now. We can finally bolt office debot "safes" to our bikes and smear the inside in some sort of sealant to get the same effect.

I'd be sued if I sold shitty side cases made from other people's products and don't have the facilities to mass manufacture generic brackets to make "anything" work on the same racks as givi/monokey luggage. And it wouldn't really matter because you don't even need brackets, really, and most people who are smart enough to not fall for the "motorcycle" gear meme can do it themselves

if I did make my own generic plastic boxes I could probably manage a killer profit margin just selling them for $70 a piece in small batches

Also, ugly DIY cases are already popular with dual sport riders. Lots of bungeed-on milk crates, zip-tied toolboxes, and permanently-attached cases that were once meant for something else to be found outside of the codger segment of "adventure" (pigfat dual sport) bikes.

Any aftermarket seats for the '16 SV650 available yet?
