Jazzzzz posted:To be fair, some of the more advanced tricks I've seen done at "stunta" demonstrations require a bit of skill and coordination as well. I'm not impressed by wheelies or stoppies or highchairs, etc., but some of the tricks Christian Pfeiffer does are pretty Well Christian Pfeiffer is on a whole different plane of existence than your average STARBOYZ FTP stunta. Plus, as you said, Pfeiffer is a trials rider.

inolen posted:I love how you so boldly show your ignorance. I love how you endlessly defend your little hobby. Standups, highchairs, rolling burnouts, big endos, standing on the seat, aka, all the poo poo you see over and over and over and over and over and over at every single stunt show on the planet (not just douchebags on the freeway), does not hold a candle to the poo poo that a pro trials rider does. It just doesnt, sorry if you dont like that. I know you cant just hop on a bike and join the starboiz or whatever, but lets be honest, how many trials riders are out there with the insane skills to do the poo poo featured in the video posted above? Not many, they are rare. How many loving bandana-wearing, wifebeater-rocking, youtube posting stuntas are around at every single motorcycle event that occurs, hawking their homemade DVD's and blaring lovely deathmetal while they put on shows consisting of the same 5 or 6 tricks that every other stunt group does?? About 10 million. Does that tell you something about trials vs. stunt riding? Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 17:44 on Jul 11, 2007 |

Most guys will say that a properly valved suspension has the same effect as a damper, and then some will say if you're suspension is tiring you out then you're not going fast enough. I lived and breathed dirtbikes from 7 to about 20 years old. I havent ridden off-road in any serious manner in about 6 years, but I want to get back into it.

Xlyfindel posted:I've heard that explanation too, but its just like a ton of clear coat. Even some scuffs will still show up, so I don't really see the advantage. I know race bikes don't need to look look super fly, and everything is already plastic anyway so its not like you need the paint to prevent rusting or whatever so... Just like if you had an assload of clearcoat, you could just run a buffer over it for a while, and it will eventually look like new.

Can someone post the pics of that Restomodded CB750 that everyone (myself included) creams their pants over? I swore to myself that I would save those pics the last time I saw them, and I'm sure I did, but here we are, and I cant find them

The one I was thinking of was a different one actually, it was more of a standard styled bike, built by a single guy, rather than a company. It looked pretty much like a stock CB750, but it had nice suspension, brakes, exhaust, etc.

I've also got a friend who's integrating my rear blinkers into the passenger foot pegs. Oh, nice, so you're that guy.
