that depends, do you do trackdays/race enough or have a mini/kart track nearby to make it worth it?

also better off buying a good used bike than some chinese shit

piranha bikes are built on crf70 frames, built in america, not going to get a cheap SSR or some shit
there's kart tracks in my area for mini-moto but i'd probably just pop whoolies and fuck with guys on the trail, and ride it as more of a "play bike" than a race mini.

IDK why my bike fucks up my left shoulder. I don't put weight on my hands. My wrists don't get sore. Just something about that riding position makes my shoulder lock up

>>16808148
happens to me too, I get a pain just under my left shoulder blade.

>>16808148
what bike?

>>16808156
2001 CBR600F4i.

>>16808155
I get pain directly in the joint where my shoulder rotates. I get to the point where I can't reach behind myself at all.

>>16808148
Maybe your bars are pushing on your arm?

>>16808180
i don't know what you mean.

>>16808148
Maybe your clutch is stiff and making you tighten up?

>>16808181
If you're riding straight and you let go of the bars, will they turn by themselves. Obviously not going slow

Also no legal lane splitting.

I have issues with lights not detecting my bikes too. I usually just check for traffic and run through them though. I couldn't even do the crosswalk button trick if I wanted to because there's no fucking crosswalks on rural highways.

I've messed with the idea of getting another dual sport. I've been looking for a light little 250-class thing to just rip on.

So which active /dbt/ poster has the fastest bike? I have a GSXR 1000 with a slip-on, intake, and a tune (last done in 2014). I am going to get it dyno'd and retuned sometime this summer. Am expecting 165-170 whp.

Can any of you faggots compete? I know some anon here has a CBR1000RR but those are only around 150whp iirc

>>16808641
I have a Ninja 250

>>16808531

I lane split once... out of like 6 cars I rode past, 2 yelled at me.

CRF250L is bad because you can easily put turn signals, a mirror, horn and DOT tires on a CRF250X and it will be much faster. Also as for the reliability, the 230 is better at that

I'm already in nanny state Ontario Canada... can't convert dirt bikes to street legal... which means if you want to connect to other trails you have to risk getting your bike impounded.

Why should I not be able to ride my >50hp dirt bike on the road for a couple KMs that has all the DOT markings, and passes some kind of emissions BS... but for some reason the government decided to say NO DIRT BIKE.

it might be coincidence but why the fuck would a sportsbike dealer in the middle of hickville pennsylvania get a second FZ-09 in before they sold the first one, in the EXACT color I was talking to them about, one week after I visit?

they cant sell alot of sports bikes because everyone here rides cruisers or tourers, maybe some redneck dirtbikes.

Does braiding brake lines do anything if you arent on a litre?

>>16809153
i use rockymountainatvmc.com
really good dealer for KTM and all the japanese bikes

>>16809325
if you can braid your lines you should probably get some more appropriately sized ones.

>>16809325
do literbikes have brakes that work differently from other bikes?

>>16809358
you have to stick your peter in the liter for them to work

>>16809325
braiding the stock lines does nothing except tangle them.
Some brake lines are coated with braided stainless steel which prevents expansion under pressure. It improves brake feel (not stopping distance or power). The engine has nothing to do with it.

>>16809356
>>16809364
Funny cunts. Braided steel lines

>>16809358
I'm assuming with the larger 6 pot brakes they take more braking pressure.

>>16809320
it's probably pretty common. If you don't immediately recognize the scenery then it's probably not the same spot

>>16809358
fuck you're stupid

>>16809346
motosport.com is pretty good too desu

>>16809378
I used to use them but I switched to rockymountain because they usually have better prices and selection, and more importantly one of their warehouses is nearby so I get 1-2 day shipping even with the free standard shipping option.

>>16809387
eh, fair enough
motosport usually has pretty competitive prices too depending on what you're buying

>>16809371
>I'm assuming with the larger 6 pot brakes they take more braking pressure.
That's why they have different size master cylinders. They work exactly the same.

>>16809376
>I'm a retard: the post

>>16809375
>don't recognize the scenery
>that's literally identical to 80% of the back roads where i live

you cheeky cunt

>>16809371
the more pots the less pressure required to apply braking force.
if your MC piston pushes 300psi at full pull and you have single piston calipers with 1sqin of area you get 300lbs of clamping force, if you have 2 pistons you get 600lbs and so on.
stainless braids will prevent the lines from expanding and make the brake lever feel a littler crisper on the pull but thats it

>>16809405
oh yeah most backroads look "the same" but when you see something "near your house" and you see it every day you can usually recognize the little details like the way the pavement is poured or the shape of the treeline

oh shit, forgot to add the extra letter. i have a YZ250FX not the YZ250F, it has a shitty euro-spec muffler that does not deserve to exist, and besides the yoshi is quite good from what i've heard

>>16809679
i thought about getting a Q4 with a megabomb because the 4.1 is probably going to be too loud in the "wonderful" state I live in (Oregon) the rule here is 99dB at half throttle or less, it's retarded
besides FMF is godly for 2 smokers (ESPECIALLY shorties) but i haven't heard such great things about their 4 stroke pipes

>>16809691
>>16809682
Q4 is pretty good. I hear it actually has a baffle that works for keeping it reasonably quiet.

>>16809691
>>16809709
q4 is about the best bet for sane noise levels and good breathability from any aftermarket.
and as with any pipe your riding style will determine just how obnoxious the noise is.
thumpers are at a big disadvantage for noise since the low note carries so much further than the smokers in the hills.

>>16809722
apparently with the yoshi they're rated at 96 dBA at 5k rpm according to a sales guy, which is what my local harescramble series sound tests at and that's what i want a new muffler for, that's why i'm even considering the yoshimura

Absolutely not. DS bikes are amazing. I ride my XR250R dual sport all over the Oregon desert and it's great because you can take it on the trail and then go cruise on the highway. Big bikes as dual sports are definitely memes though they're shit

sorry im a noob. but i did think she said she will send it to me. (i was kinda nervous/excited so i wasn't focused much)
she has to finish financing the bike in order for her to send me the title?

but yeah she gave me her contact info and stuff

>>16809944
Like the 500EXC SIX DAYS? Or an older 530 or something? The 500 isn't too big for trails unlike a 650, but 250s are way easier to rip and handle much better. All up to you desu, if you're test riding at a KTM dealer (I think you can test ride an EXC because it's street legal already) you should both ride a bigger and smaller bike and see which you like better on the street. The 500 is pretty nice though not gonna lie.

>>16809957
Dude is she hot? What bike? And if it's a woman and you have her cell number and everything there's a good chance you'll get the title, did you giver her your address to mail it to?
When you take a loan on a bike, they keep the title so they technically own the bike until you have paid them for it completely, she probably was short on cash so sold the bike to you in order to pay off the loan

>>16809962
Just the 500 exc, hoping to find a used one nearby. But neat, thanks for the info helpful anon.

There is also more words.
It is basically saying it was never so good(As now)

>Afrikaans doesn`t translate to English 100%
I can read Afrikaans. I figured there had to be something after it.

Looking at it again it looks like it says that it's better than your mum(s pizza)

>>16811009
just give 'er, bill

When you're coming to a stop clutch in as you slow down and put it in first gear while gradually applying brake as is safe and comfortable

>>16811073
>better than your mum(s pizza)
Impossible

>>16811073
Diddnt think there was anyone who could read any Afrikaans here.
Are you Dutch?

Jou ma se pizza is nie so lekker soos ons s'n nie!

Ok bois, I want some panniers on my CB500, here are some options I looked into (no, I can't afford givi hard cases or whatever the fuck expensive luggage):
http://www.polo-motorrad.com/en/satteltaschenpaar-03-eb1143.html

These are decently big, I just wonder about their endurance and the fact that water will get inside them, won't that mess up the fabric eventually? They don't have rain covers, but come with waterproof bags to put your stuff into.

More expensive, properly waterproof, would probably cope better with harsh conditions.

Two of these babies, will have to come up with some sort of mounting system. I already have a topcase, so I could get someone to weld some luggage spacers and then drill the boxes and mount them with screws+rubber for vibrations. They are a bit more expensive for me to purchase than the amazon price, YUROP here.

Suggestions/experiences with any of these? I plan to do some touring and commuting, but love spirited riding in the twisties too.

You don't need paint on a plastic fairing, right?

Do bikes with polished "naked" plastic look good in person?

I ask because I am a cheapskate.

>>16811155
No but who gives a fuck what other people think of your bike. At least you have one.

>>16811162
Fuck it, I'lll just sand well enough to blend the ABS welded spots and plastidip+enamel then.

>>16811175
you can always wrap them.

or dont be a cheapskate and for some money over to get a pro to give it some proper glossy paint.

>>16809201
Ontario Canada or Ontario California?

If California, I'm going to AMP tomorrow to do some supermoto shit

I bought a 2013 bike with 6200 miles on it, it came with a 2 year, unlimited mile extended warrenty that goes until november of 2018.

At this point I'd assume any problem from the factory would be dealt with/have been found, should I still ride the fuck out of it?

Basically what I'm asking is, whats a safe number of miles where any defects would be found from the factory, or any sort of failure?

>>16811225
Proper prep and paint either takes up a dozen hours of your life or a few days worth of your paycheck. Plastidip costs less than one fairing and looks about as good as factory paint from the 90s would.

I've read it once in a while thrown in with "parts are expensive". Which is definitely true for some of the OEM stuff, but not for the 115€ Regina chain + sprockets I got on Louis :^)

>Italian chain on German bike

brb hoping it doesn't explode.

>>16811354
>Italian chain on German bike
That sounds like a recipe for disaster

>>16811354
>>16811355

>>16811355
>That sounds like a recipe for a STAHLPAKT

Ftfy

>>16811399
Which ended in the Italians leaving the Germans.

Have fun walking back to were your chain left your bike.
