I started on a messed up 2000 EX250 trying to teach myself how to ride a motorcycle by myself with no training whatsoever in the middle of LA. Surprisingly never crashed it in the year I owned it. I also had no trouble at all on the freeway with it the entire time I was in LA so anyone who thinks they don't have enough power for any highway has no business being on a bike in the first place. Impulse bought a 2006 R6s after that and it remains to be the best impulse purchase I've ever made that I SHOULD regret seeing as how much debt it put on me. This one I have crashed because I'm an idiot who thought he could keep up and couldn't D=  And this is the poo poo I had to deal with in college because all of my roommates were pussy faggots who wanted scooters instead of motorcycles so I had to ride alone until I met some grizzled dudes from work to ride with.

Does it really rev to 19K? It seems with that redline that the power curve would look like an asymptote (until 30hp or whatever). Does it bog down at like 7k?

That was how my ex250's ignition worked. Key never fell out but goddamn it had the teeth of an 80yo babuschka similar to my 1990 toyota camry key which I could start two of my friends high school camrys with and vice versa.

Is there no way to get a legal I-4 250 or 400 into the states? The only way I can imagine is that in Kitsap county in WA and I imagine other counties that emisssions are never checked, that they only care about make and displacement.

NitroSpazzz posted:Ok so where is the shot of the cop with you all pulled over. There is no way that many motards got together and didn't cause trouble Why on earth would you all pull over? It takes four cruisers to write four tickets. The Husky rider best run, I'm pretty sure the use of slicks is frowned upon.

nullscan posted:I did this with the 10 my third week. Somehow my keychain got wedged in weird amongst the cables and as I was taking a hard right out of my inclined drive way it clicked the ignition off. Luckily I was able to slowly let it down and didn't rash anything up but drat I felt stupid. Dude what the gently caress

I think it's ok to tell people not to force a passion on themselves. Motorcycling seems like something some people force themselves to keep wanting to do because they'd be seen as a pussy if they didn't like it. It's ok to not like something. live and do nothing forever and ever amen. I don't like dan in that video

so does that thing just easily power wheelie with barely any throttle in 3rd? How do you not unicycle around with that much power paired with that geometry?

700 hours on a dirtbike, albeit a 525, seems like a lot of hours on a dirtbike. When do you really need to worry about bottom ends? The factory recommendations seem dumb as hell and for nerds.

I really really want to make a dedicated track bike out of an fz09. The one I got to ride on track was phenomenal except for the binary throttle that had me bucking mid corner trying to crack it on. I'd get more tire life and confidence in carrying corner speed than the 1290 superduke I have now (a new 200 rear pirelli sc1 is like 75% worn after one track day =( ). Did you get the fueling/throttle map re-done? right arm posted:I may never escape... 😪😪 is NFD 25 or whatever between Mt. Rainier and Mt St Helens open? we tried riding it last year around this time and it was under severe construction.

Slavvy posted:Not joking here: how do you get adrenaline going on a bike, and why would you want to? The only times I've felt adrenaline pumping on a bike is when I've been making GBS threads myself on gravel, in storms etc. In general when I ride I experience a sensation of calm serenity, where the endless gibbering screaming in my head goes silent, all my scattered jumbled thoughts straighten out into a neat single file, and the faster and more zoned in I get the more calm I become. Super fast bikes are just frustrating in this respect because it's basically impossible to get the bike in it's happy operating window, and by extension me, on public roads, so I just ride around the whole time feeling like I want to sneeze but can't quite manage it. you should get a dirt bike and go trail riding

remember doing a beer run with a passenger on a drz and figured we needed to get 2 30can pbr boxes instead of one to keep proper balance as the passenger held a case in each hand off the side.

Best bang for the buck is 17's on the bike you already have, instead of spending a couple grand over what you pay for a RC390 to make it fun on track, which you also have to pay for

I'm a ktm apologist only because I've pre-replaced as many ktm failure-prone items as I can (and after owning a 701sm, 1290 SD, 300exc, and FC350 I'm full on habsburg syndromed at this point)
