I own a Suzuki, they make good bikes but to a price point. The build quality is terrible but the spec you get is phenomenal really. I think this year will be between the R1 and the GSXR1000R, which whilst more you do get a few more toys with the GSXR. I've not looked at one in the flesh yet as there are non in stock but the controls layout on the R1 is by far my favourite of any current sportsbike

Whichever bike you buy you need to budget chemotherapy of around ~£1000 for a full akrapovic/Yoshimura to replace the cancer that is the current exhausts

I'm the OP. Basically you hit around 5k on my GSXR and the bike goes mental up to around 12k

On a Honda you hit the power and its a pretty steady surge (assuming non-vtec as per the litre bike) which although much more controllable, isn't nearly as fun. I would never buy a Honda again, despite their outstanding build quality they aren't as "mental" as the equivalent Suzuki/Yam/Aprillia

well the thing is, the more linear your powerband is, the less top end you'll have. Modern engines are getting better at avoiding this tradeoff somewhat with VVT, variable airboxes, etc., though. But for a more track focused bike, it's likely to have a peaky powerband relative to a more street oriented bike.

this is why TotW2 is for beginners only, hardly 50% of it is actually good advice.
What you want is neutral throttle, where the throttle is open but you aren't accelerating

>>16919617
If you're going for anything more than a sweeper, accelerating and turning in generally leads to a bad time.

Generally there is a sequence to taking a corner at speed, braking, turn in, "maintenance" (or the middle) and accelerating out.

When you're under braking, the contact patch on your front tyre spreads out, this gives you more grip on the front wheel for you to turn in on, in the middle of the corner, you crack the throttle to stop decceleration but don't accelerate yet, this is when you're at max lean angle and turning as hard as possible, then you begin accelerating as you exit and pick the bike up.

What he did, and what from watching crashes seems to be the most common way to lowside is he had too little pressure on the front tyre, if you're accelerating, the weight is at the back of the bike, the front contact patch is small and if you try and suddenly stress the front tyre more (like say, realizing you could be leaning much harder for this corner right now and turning in more extremely) you're asking more grip from less rubber on the ground.

>>16919656
>>16919661
>>16919677
this is why I don't recommend twist 2 to noobs anymore and prefer reccing this.

Unless the corner is long as fuck or you approach it at a speed equal to or lower than you can take the corner maintenance throttle generally means you had too little entry speed. Which is okay enough on the street when you're way below the limit but it's mostly a shit habit on the track because it will delay when you can start accelerating.

A fender eliminator kit, some bar end or low profile mirrors, and maybe a new pipe/headers because even though I love it, it sounds like a wet fart. The shit I saw all the old fags at the dealership do was that rear seat "cafe racer" cowl, valve covers for the boxer, engine covers, basically everything on the cover of the Rizoma catalog we had for it. Pic related. I mean it looks good, but when every R9T I see has the same shit on it, it's not really customization anymore.

Can we get back to discussing why litre sportsbikes are better than the 600cc cucks?

Had a friend show me how to clean my carbs about a month ago. Started my bike up today and got a puff of blue smoke. (No riding in the winter, fuel was topped up and stabilizer put in.) I was told to put some Sea Foam in her which I did today, and then kicked her a few hours later and got the smoke. Do I need to replace the valves?

>>16920073
see:
>>16920098

>>16920013
If it hasn't had valve clearances checked within the last 12,000 miles you should have it done. It's fairly involved mechanically, wouldn't recommend a noob wrench to try it. Buy a Haynes or triumph manual that has all the tune up information and service intervals in it.

>>16919784
I met Baird and cactus in Denver, it was pretty kek worthy

>>16920104
Sure, tell us agaon how your literbike has a 16,000 rpm redline, does 120mph in first, and how you never use 5th or 6th gear.

is the cbr650f worth the price

>>16920119
Why would you buy a CBR650 when the F4i exists and is much cheaper?

>>16920106
No, but monitor the oil level for the first couple of rides. You might just be burning residual crap that collected in the exhaust over winter.

seafoam is basically kerosene and will burn just like oil in the gas. if it was in the carbs and the gas evaporated out leaving more seafoam than anything itll likely smoke a bit till it clears out.
if it smokes a little on cold starts occasionally it means the valve guides might be leaking a little which isnt anything worth worrying about

>because of Rossi?
No

Yamaha went dark blue to avoid overlapping with Honda and Suzuki long before Rossi ever rode one.

It seems so very Japanese that they all spread themselves out across the major colours

thats a lot of it for a bike. should be fine when it runs out. if it smells a little like a kero heater or a commercial jet thats the seafoam burning off.
its pretty distinct from motor oil burning off, but it is still a very similar color
if it has an O2 sensor or cat you might want to dump at least half the tank and refill with straight gas to make sure you dont screw anything up

She's a '98 XT350, so pretty basic.

I saw the smoke this morning and thought, fuck, that's it, so it's good to know that I didn't totally fuck up and it's pretty normal to see and smell it.

thats no drum brake, it just seems to be a disc with a cover.

You mean since they stopped painting the yellow and before they painted them blue? Why are you so hung up on this?
