they buy it because japan couldn't make a solid feeling fairing to avoid a third nuke and americans go gaga over things that feel solid in the hand even if they're complete dogsiht

OK, I had the oil changed on my bike at the dealership. First off they told me that an oil change is not necessary since the oil looked pretty clear on the dipstick. Told them to do it anyway.

When I came to collect it, the mechanic showed me the old oil. It was bluish coloured. Should I be worried, /o/?

It's a 2009 Yamaha YBR250, and it's air cooled.

Pic for interest.

>>17835999
Not that much more powerfull. Sure, they'll scream less when going on the highway, but the cbr 500r was made for the european A2 license, so it's at 48hp.

>>17835999
300 will be faster because it's lighter and handles better

Yeah, the oil was probably old. Possibly had tiny metal particles in it. If you had done the oil change yourself (WHY WOULD YOU NOT DO AN OIL CHANGE YOURSELF JESUS CHRIST) you could have looked at the drain plug (you DO have a magnetic drain plug, right? If not, you could have installed one while changing the oil) and checked for metal.

Changing the oil yourself isn't just a good idea because you'll save money on an easy task that only takes a few minutes, it's also because that way you can easily identify and rectify problems whose symptoms might be weirdly colored oil, you retard. Why don't you run back to the shop and ask them if you have them do everything for you anyway instead of wasting my time?

It's not a sportbike but all the owners claim it is because they have a scooter with full plastics that have no business being on a bike that tops out that slow. Same with the cbr300, cbr500, etc. It's the motorcycle equivalent of synthol or a fake hood scoop on a car.

thanks to apparently never being opened or having the oil changed the seal which is supposed to be stuck to the cover is loose. So I've got to hold that down while, also lining up an internal component with the reciprocal hole on the cover and trying to slide the cover in between the case and the starter motor.

this is my DD which I need tomorrow, I'm hungry as fuck, nothing in the house, no where delivers.

That was a different Saffer in Namibia.

They both do and don`t fear whites here. I am 115kg and 1.88m verses, on average, 75kg 1.70m Kaffirlets. I have never lost a fight to a kaff. But they won`t hesitate to attack in force, almost no one can fight 1v5.

As for fear of the mind, they are still sacred of whites but would never admit it. The younger generations are not as afraid. They only have the stories from their parents.

I only bully the cunts that throw stones are don`t use mirrors and then refuse to apologize or act rude.

They are very few refos here, if any. Blacks hated other blacks and try to push them out. Just look at the Black V Black Xenophobic violence.

Whites don`t fear Blacks, we are wary around them but we fear criminals(which are black).

it's when you transcend the way of life of the average ethiopian and start craving more that things get stickier. the most high-end motorcycle that money can buy you is a dt175, whilst gear is non-existent and helmets are only available at tagrow as far as I am concerned. you can't buy things on amazon either because we have a shortage of foreign currency and postage prices are astronomical.

I have a 250 of these. Fuck those guys flaming you. Just had the valves adjusted and told myself fuck it, let's also get the oil and filter changed. Cost me 80€ alltogether. Now some busrider retard gave me shit for going to the dealership.

By the way what do you mean that the cover doesn't go on? What is in the way of it?

>>17836632
There should be a 2 locating roll pins in the clutch cover/motor if they are stuck in the clutch cover just pull them out with your fingers and put them in the corresponding holes in the motor to hold the gasket in place while you get the cover back on. If you can't get that to work tape a couple ( or all ) the bolts in place in the clutch cover, slide the gasket on too and be careful as you slide the whole thing onto the motor. Next time, don't pull the CC for an oil change.

Check it weekly, daily if it looses more than 2psi in a week.

Always check before you ride, heating the tire up riding raises the pressure ( about 10% if you have the right pressure in them to start with )

Welcome to the Midwest, enjoy your stay. We've got: 1 small crappy touge 30 mins East of me where nobody wants to go because the locals call the cops early and often and it's mediocre anyways, 1 ok touge 2 hours Southwest, and some real good shit 4 hours+ away.

The info from the comment is outdated, I haven't seen a cop on this road in a few years now. Squids finally quit going there and killing themselves so the cops don't bother anymore. I've done it end to end on a nice day and not seen one car on multiple occasions. Even a day when you see cars, 10 for the whole day is a lot.

Not him, but I was considering one. It looks classy, and it's fun to ride an underpowered piece of shit like a grom in traffic. If you're on a classy bike, you get a lot more respect from non-riders, I got a lot of respect on my BMW (because people see the logo and think classy). It's not the same as old, a 70's/80's Japanese bike just looks old, not classy, no matter what hipsters with their cafe racers think. The big BMW handles really nice, but you pretty much don't leave second gear in the city. I ended up buying a baby naked sports bike, and it's fun to push it when there's a clear road, but it's not much fun when speed is dictated by traffic but the engine is constantly begging for more or power drops off.

There's something just pleasant about riding a small displacement air cooled engine like when I had a 250cc baby cruiser (absolute shit on freeways) learning bike. You shift frequently enough to keep things interesting, but it's not demanding like a high revving peaky engine. The torque band is forgiving and easy going so you don't have to concentrate on it, but if you want you can try to push the engine and keep it happy and not end up rear ending the car in front of you. It's not really adrenaline pumping, but it is engaging just going along with traffic.

A cruiser in the city is about as engaging as a autotragic scooter, once you're out of first it's just twist and go with different amounts of revs, all the "personality" is in the exhaust note and vibration, not any interaction with the bike.

A sports bike is either demanding and unforgiving requiring lots of attention, or it has so much power it's just begging for more all the time. A powerful sports bike is even worse than the twist and go feeling of a cruiser, it just constantly begs to be WOT and you always have to tell it no. A smaller sports bike can be pushed sometimes, sometimes it is very engaging, but at other times it just feels more like it's demanding.

>>17837615
Not attached at all, I'm trying to sell them. 2006 Ninja 500R w/ 12k miles and 2016 CBR600RR w/ like 100 miles.

I ended up paying $12k for the CBR in April but can't get anyone to show interest, even at $9k

>>17837633
Because 9k is finance territory. Someone would rather just buy new.

>>17837633
Why are you selling it?

And 600's haven't been updated in forever so you're not really getting anything more by buying a newer bike, probably why it's hard to sell.

>>17837640
I agree, I wasn't sure how I would find someone with that much cash. What options do I have then? Am I stuck with this bike until it gets down to the $5k range? Also I financed it, making the sale and title transfer even less appealing.

>>17837648
Either keep it and ride it. Or keep it and wait for a buyer. The dealer won't buy it bike for what the loan amount is.

>>17837647
I'm moving from the Bay Area to TX where the weather and laws aren't nearly as nice for riding. And I bought it before I lost my job so it's not something I can afford at the moment

>>17837655
What about dropping the price to get it sold? Geico is charging me $150/mo for insurance (financer wants full coverage) and the $200 payment make it hard to hold onto

>>17837622
Welcome to CL.

Keep riding it and keep listing it. It's going to take a long time to find a buyer, but nothing is lost from you listing it versus just riding it. Just put firm and will not respond to lowballers. Don't expect much interest in it.

>>17837664
>buying something you can't afford
Are you a boomer or a millennial?

>>17837666
I know satan, i know.

>>17837683
>how fast does it go
I fucking hate this question, it's like an immediate red flag that the person's an idiot, I've started just say "as fast as I want" and walking away.

>>17837664
>What about dropping the price to get it sold?


That is exactly how the free market works, when the price is right for somebody they will buy it.

This is why you don't ever finance a toy, shit happens in life and now you got fucked by interest when you bought it and you'll get fucked because you will be forced to off it cheap if you don't get lucky.

>>17837683
So true. Went on one date where the girl said she was into motorcycles so I showed her mine outside and she said she only liked Harley's.

Never spoke to her again after that.

gah I miss drinking and wrenching.

Oughta do some of it this weekend.

>>17837712
Why be a dick to somebody showing interest? You could say "Well, it can get up to 200km/h but I've never had it that fast. I prefer corners or [insert interest here]."

>>17837683

>>17837633
Put the 500R online for ~2K USD, trailer the CBR600 to your new home. Your Accord should be fine hauling both mechanically, but you might not be allowed to depending on how your local laws are.

>>17837633
I can find new old stock cbrs for 7.5k out here you are hosed lmao

>>17837747
Because if you give them an actual answer they respond 10/10 times with "well a BUSA can go 200 mph, why don't you have one of those?" The kind of person who asks that question first is not someone I want to talk to.

>>17837779
I had a feeling that was the case
>>17837754
>>17837669
I'll do that, thanks
>>17837677
Millennial lmao

>>17837795
Then you say "Because I said I like cornering and a busa can't corner as well. Plus I'm not melanin enriched enough to buy one."

>>17837716
>she said she only liked Harley's
What´s with chicks and being drawn to fags anyway?

>financing your bike
Holy shit people are retarded.

In the case of someone I know Geico wanted 17,000 usd /yr for a 5,000 bike. I know I keep posting this but it's amazing.

>>17837816
Harleys are designed for attention whores, 99% of woman are attention whores in one way or another.

>>17837816
This >>17837825. They compliment eachother.

>>17837805
>busa can't corner
Why do people keep spreading this myth despite ample evidence of the contrary?

>>17837820
When they quote you retarded rates like that it means they don't want to insure you. If you shop around you can easily find something considerably cheaper.

>>17837847
>as well
are you retarded or do you just like to take things out of context for the memes?

>>17837820
I wanted to finance a used bike to build credit, it was hilarious watching dealers try to push me towards 60 month financing on something worth 5.5k (which would result in paying like 15k total lmao). Ended up buying a cl bike for cheaper

>>17837816
Gangbang fantasy, it what she doesn't realize is that the harleyfags would rather just fuck each other while she watches.

>>17837869
Why are interest rates so high in burgerland?

>>17837876
Free market, even folks with COMPLETE SHIT for a credit score can get a loan from a company that is set up to rape them hard.

>>17837904
Need nanny state regulations to protect idiots from themselves desu, the only problem is corporations love workers saddled in debt.

>>17836253
They're almost certainly meeting up to discuss and/or protest anti-bikie legislation which has been passed in some Australian states.

>>17835423
why would you dump that much money into a GS...

Anyone else suffered from their chain flash rusting before?

>>17838025
Check that it isn't just red dirt

>>17837959
Is it really idiots protection from themselves though?
At these rates >>17837869 you'd have to have no income at all not to be able to afford to pay off that loan easy as shit.

So I left my bike idling on the kickstand for about 30 minutes. How fucked am I?

>>17838051
The problem is idiots finance lots of things because they see low monthly payment and think they can afford it.

>>17838065
How does the credit rating system work then? Is it like insurance that goes down the longer you are insured or is it based off your income and assets?

>>17838042
It was bright orange; cleaned it off as best as I could but there's some scarring.

>>17838082
It's based on your history of paying debt. You have to go into debt, then pay it back.

>>17838082
It's not based off income or assets at all. I make 65k and have 45k in my vanguard and I have almost no credit because I used a debit card exclusively until 6 months ago. Get a cc and pay it off kids, I want a condo now but I have to build credit for a year first

>>17838120
>>17838123
That's so fucking retarded, I haven't loaned money ever in my life and pay everything either debit or cash. The only time I'll ever take out a loan will be to buy property, so if I did this in the US I'd basically be a moron getting scammed hard.

wew lad, you're going to have to replace the brakepads

>>17838025
yes after neglecting it for 15000km

>>17838226
Any significant impact?

I'm thinking that the 300 km of travel during rain is the root cause of mine. No issues before it and clean it every 400-500 ks

>>17836649
wtf happened to the guy at 3:25?

>>17838025
Rust on the outside of the links is no problem at all. Just ride and stop worrying.

>>17838242
Looks like the rust comes from behind the o-rings or x-rings - if so you're fucked. If not, you're ok. Just keep checking if every link can move freely every once in a while.

>>17838266
Oh wait, did he lock the rear wheel?

Lotta Boomers ride KTMs because we can afford them while we squander your future. KTM have a rather large demo setup at Barber Vintage every year for good reason. If u liek KTMs you'd spontaneously orgasm there.

Blue is odd, but doesn't look like coolant or condensation. Metal is fucking distinctive and doesn't look blue. You'd have seen steel, aluminum or (rarely, depends on what fails) brass colored particles if it was a wear metal. Might have had some odd oil additive discoloring it, but blue isn't metal.

t. highly experienced mechanic.

I'd ride it and keep an eye on the oil, remembering some residual oil persists between oil changes.

If really curios, pour some future drained oil through a white coffee filter, or better yet inspect the pleats in your oil filter. You can cut off the cover of canister filters without making chips by using a pipe cutter.

>>17836632
I often use a couple of dots of super glue to hold cover gaskets to the cover if I'm out of 3M weatherstrip adhesive/Gasgacinch/etc. (Avoid RTV.)

is there such a thing as affordable and waterproof textile trousers or should I just keep using my waterproof overtrousers?

Pros
>100% waterproof

cons
>bit of a hassle to get it on
>can get very hot and sweaty inside it because it is absolutely sealed

>>17837820
Financing the bike is irrelevant in that case, that person is clearly nearly uninsurable.

>>17838891
No they told me if it wasnt financed it wouldve been around 1400 a yr. It's largely in part to the location NYC's accident rates and financing needing full coverage.
