Don't have many in New york

I am considering buying a pre-2003 dual sport bike with 600 or 650 cc displacement and preferrably ABS in stock. The main purpose is to travel to Western Asia or maybe around Europe in summer. As I am limited in my assets (about USD 3500 and living in Russia) I was initially looking for BMW's F650GS but these have front fork axle lug issue (well, those that are suitable for my budget).
My question is: shall I save some more and buy newer model with ABS, or shall I buy older one and pray it does not break, or shall I consider something else? My main requirement is ABS availability as my driving skills are not yet perfect enough.

Define "offroad", because most of the time a road bike will do fine unless in deep mud, and 100% of the time a DS with tires suited for it will go through tires faster than a sportbike if ridden on pavement

Reminder Ducati a best

>>16583407
I meant that a BMW probably would look pretty expensive
Plus they're heavy and unwieldy
Given it's your first bike i'd go for something like a kle or klr (from Kawasaki), easily found for like 2k and spend the rest in gear/equipment

No, it won't have as many electronic farkles as a BMW, but they are pretty much indestructible

>>16583426
powerlines with deep puddles and mud,
sand pits with very loose sand and hillclimbs
loose sandy paths around fields etc

Hey guys!
gonna get my driving licence this summer. My grandfather (he passed away, sadly) was a real badass motocross racer in the 60s, and he had a Simson S51n for weekend riding. Turns out the old Simson is still sitting in his garage, it wasn't running since 2006. Any tips on getting it running again? I don't even know if it runs, it'll turn out after i graduate in July.
I was thinking about:
-a full-on reflush on the whole oil/fuel system
-I'm gonna replace the old tires immediately, don't wanna pass away on the first test run
-check trough the entire engine, take it apart and rebuild it

I'm studying as a mechanical engineer, so i welcome every help

>>16583394

as a ginuwine tallie wallie the only 600 I've ridden that's made me say "oh baby" was the 2013+ zx-6r, it's significantly roomier than most 600s and has a very tall seat height, it also got identified in a group test involving a grill as being the least confidence inspiring because of it.

Unless you're REALLY tall and she's really short though this shouldn't be a problem, something like a CBR600RR or a GSX-R600 will fit fine for both stock, can always go for like vortex rearsets if you want to adjust seating position though you probably won't get enough time inbetween track sessions to swap them around etc.

The main thing is, if you guys have significantly different weights the suspension settings are gonna be off without change too.

>>16583072

>>16584011
can do either, it's really up to you, how confident you feel etc. I know somebody who rides track very fast on a 600 who went down to a 300 on the road because he used it for cone and motogymkhana practice etc. I was quite confident and had dirtbike experience so I went straight to the 650 and I've had no problems.

I would suggest just not buying either new and if you buy a 300 or a 250 not spending too much on it.

The important thing is you'll learn the vital skills on either, it's more up to your attitude than the bike you ride, /dbt/ always talks about "getting bored" of bikes but they're also shitters who don't do anything interesting with the bikes in the first place.

I was considering KLR650, though lack of any ABS support saddens me a bit. Anyway, thanks for the help!

>>16583817
Check the carburetor, look for manuals in the internet.
Check all wires, some may be rotten.
Check lights/all othe electrical components.
Of course, check if gears shift easily and correctly. Old bikes have this problem sometimes.

>>16584115
Off road (or in any other low grip scenario) ABS is useless if not downright dangerous
All in all git gud and avoid grabbing an handful of brake

>>16584115
ABS is shit

>>16584162
only offroad, hopefully the US will follow europe and get rid of non-abs street bikes completely.

>>16584168
>get rid
Can't wait for this right wing wave to stamp out eurocrats and they're shitty laws
Until then fuck off, get good

Thanks, Will definiately go over theese. If everything goes OK, i'm gonna speed on my 2stroke DDR rocket at 60 km/h (original max is 50km/h, but grandad managed to tweak it, so it produces an amazing 4hp instead of 3,7)
The transmission is said to be really funky, since it uses conventional gears instead of those curvy shaped gears found in modern transmissions

Guys, please don't get mad over this, I just asked for an advice. If anything, Russia (where I am from) still needs roads as what we have nowadays is described purely as "directions". It is one of the reasons I asked about ABS (though what I probably really need is a tank,the ultimate safety).

>>16583989
Yea you would
>>16584044
Agreed

>>16584230
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system_for_motorcycles#Perception_and_legislation

>These studies caused the EU commission to initiate a legislative process in 2010 that was passed in 2012 and led to ABS for motorcycles above 125 cc becoming mandatory from 2016 onwards.

>wait five minutes for bike to warm up because it's carbed

>>16584309
>i have no idea how laws work nor what "grandfathering" means

>>16584324
Obviously it's not retroactive you dumbass,

>from 2016 onwards

There won't be any new bikes in the EU that don't come with ABS. America should follow suit.

>>16584342
Fuck that, give buyers a choice

>>16584309
Uh, I guess that's why I'm riding a bike without abs.
Nigger. first EU laws aren't country laws, second they can't stop people from getting old motorcycles, have you ever thought about that?

I also doubt they will start to sell cheap 125 and 250 with abs from the next year.

>>16584362
>second they can't stop people from getting old motorcycles

>There won't be any new bikes in the EU that don't come with ABS.

>>16584354
Buyers are people. People are stupid. ABS will save a countless amount of squids and retards from painful death. If you want a track bike without ABS for some unfathomable reason, then remove the ABS or buy an older bike without.

>>16584368
What? Is that a counter- or pro-argument?

>>16584371
You act like saving retarded lives is a good thing. Also, the government doesn't know what's best for the entire populus, they ought to butt out on things like this and let manufacturers make whatever sells.

>>16584383

Bike insurance is cheap as is. I don't think abs is a bad thing, but the government shouldn't have any say in whether it's on a bike or not. Let the consumers decide

>>16584398

Always nice seeing new "ABS a shit" "no u" shitstorms

Safety regulations are the reason cars are so safe nowadays. Letting the "consumer decide" is whats happening in china with their death trap mobiles.

FHP is cool unless you're south of Orlando and Daytona. Up in the Panhandle I've drive past FHP on the side of I-10 doing 82 or so and they gave flatly zero fucks. You have to look suspicious, be a squid, or be at 85+ for them to care. Speeding in those early morning hours is quite likely to net you a fat ass ticket though. Night shift sucks as a cop, plus they don't want to make to call to clean you up when you hit a deer or black bear at 90+.
