high rpm, low weight, fewer moving parts, i'd say rotaries would be great for bikes. awesome.

Sound Mr. Brown posted:Someone skipped the MSF course... lolling. sv650 has a pretty cool sound, though. that's one thing i don't like about my old boxer, it has a very un-motorbike-like sound, just a mild rrrrr thing. it actually sounds far cooler if one cylinder stops firing so you get a more punchy ptptptptptpt tune. except then it can't really go uphill.

campaign posters for yulia tymoshenko, either current or former prime minister of ukraine. i forget which, there's all kinds of complicated poo poo going on over there. she doesn't restrict herself with a puny 600cc sport bike like all you weenies here.

`Nemesis posted:Can that video be our standard response every time someone comes into AI thinking a supersport is a perfectly fine first bike? your argument falls flat i think it's also clear from where his "instructor" friend is standing (right in front of a goddamn liter bike with someone riding it who's never squeezed a clutch before) that he doesn't know what the hell is up with bikes either Rev.

Trintintin posted:What the hell did he even do, I've watched it three times and what caused him to just rev the piss out of it then drop the clutch for no reason. Also I can only assume that was his brand new bike, since both of the other guys are laughing hysterically and not beating the poo poo out of him for destroying the bike. that's why the msf teaches clutch use first without using the throttle.

yeah that looks like the problem. he saw that he went into the turn too hot, but instead of holding throttle and leaning more, he hit the brakes, leading to a yet wider turn.
