[fossil gulch]

wait

19288.58

yearly

[cyan wind]

saw PH and thought he meant per hour

[fossil gulch]

19288.58PHP a year for a 400

[tulip bramble]

[fossil gulch]

A litre super sport would be 73638.86

[tulip bramble]

damn, so its not much different here

[fossil gulch]

And you have mandatory personal insurance so you can double that number

[tulip bramble]

not entirely required to have insurance here

except LTO insurance

the one that covers property damage

you always gotta pay that yearly

[fossil gulch]

Here you need the SAAQ plate fee (which is basically the same as LTO) AND you need to have private insurace that covers minimum 50k in damages to the other driver's vehicle

But if you buy an MT09 or a Z1000 you'll probably want personal coverage so you don't lose the whole price of the bike when you bin it as a beginner

[tulip bramble]

aaaand its mandatory cause you cant hit the road without that insurance

(technically you can in illegal ways 👀)

[fossil gulch]

In other provinces the gov gives you a sticker to prove you paid so people would just go around and steal your stickers lmao

People here will just steal your plate

But one of the perks of a 400 is that no one wants to steal it cause its worth nothing

[tulip bramble]

here its the license plate

number includes when your registration and insurance expires basically

last number of the plate

[fossil gulch]

Here the plate numbers for bikes don't mean anything

Except that a lower number means you've registered your bike longer ago

Which is kinda nice

some places put which city the car owners live in which I've always found kinda discomforting

[tulip bramble]

here our plates let you know where the car is registered through Regions

there are 17 regions

so yeah you’ll be alright

keep in mind that there are more than 10 provinces for some regions

so someone pinpointing your exact province through plates wont be easy

Top plate is the one for motorcycles

idk how the numbers work on bike plates

NCR is National Capital Region, which covers the entirety of Manila

[split prairie]

My baby sooooo sexy 🥰

[broken portal]

saw this f430 while walking home from school not too long ago

[obtuse plover]

[old tulip]

not really an abomination, just meh

[obtuse plover]

You don’t think it’s awful?

[old tulip]

[astral tartan]

GTST? Sorry I'm not sure about the model but goddamn that's a very good looking car. Love the stance

Could be a gtr but there are no little logos on the front fenders and the front looks like a body kit

[split prairie]

Yeah gtst with a aftermarket front bumper and gtr hood

My oem fender badges that say GT(the gtr and gtst have them) fell off a while ago and I haven’t put them back on yet

[twin belfry]

Damn. That RB25 and the engine bay in general looks clean

Same goes for the car itself

[astral tartan]

That's neat

[velvet echo]

i didn’t even see the plate 💀

[noble bear]

his car been everywhere but the least at his own country

its been seen in monaco, london, france and more

wonder how many miles its got

[velvet echo]

i don’t think he drives it

[noble bear]

its been seen in london cruising

on some tiktok car spotters

page

[velvet echo]

yeah but I dont think he drives it from London to Monaco

he puts it on a truck and travels in plane

[noble bear]

def

the plate part is crazy

its hard af to get SLR

let alone the number one

back when it was in monaco

i wonder in which country he actually lives

[noble bear]

a sprinkle of aventadors

and a ton of 2010's astons

[flint wasp]

vette on the side?

[twin belfry]

I love the 190E Evo II

[woeful creek]

yeah i obviously don’t know about this guy specifically but that is very common for cars seen in places like Monaco or Soho, in London with gulf plates

they have enough cars that they just cycle through them, so they’re never in the country long enough to need to be re-registered

[velvet echo]

in august in Monaco there’s all rich Arabs coming with their cars

[fossil gulch]

Maybe I’m just forgetful but why do you want the 300 over the 650 or any of the other 300-500cc adv/sport tourers

[sick pike]

Cause I'm young and don't have a high budget

Also ninja engine go brrrr

[fossil gulch]

That’s fair lmao

I just wish Kawasaki would update it from the old ass 290cc ninja engine to the current 400

[sick pike]

Yeah

[fossil gulch]

I really don’t get why there’s not really any 400cc adv/tourers

KTM has the 390 and that seems to be all

There’s also the csc thing and thé CFmoto thing but I’d be hesitant to count those in

[sick pike]

[fossil gulch]

Welcome to the magical world of Royal Enfield

Their 650 makes 47 Hp

@7kRPM

[cyan wind]

are they actually using engines or is it pedal power lmao

[fossil gulch]

Their bikes are stupidly old-school

Their brochure for the INT650 makes a big deal about it being their first bike with a 6 speed gearbox

[cyan wind]

most 125's have 6 speeds come off it

I've been trying to find this elusive versys 300 on marketplace

[sick pike]

Goddamn

[fossil gulch]

I’m sure your mum would be more than happy to let you ride it from here to cali

It’s only like 5000 kilometers

[sick pike]

Easy ride

Never been on something with more than 125cc too

Great learning experience!

[fossil gulch]

It’s a 290, it’s basically the same

[fossil gulch]

You can pin it in first and you’d probably still not lift the front

Which is perfect for a beginner

But honestly I haven’t been on anything smaller than a 400 in my life so Idk what the jump is like

Wait, that’s not true. I rode a rebel 300 at the start of my license classes

[sick pike]

Dirty liar

[fossil gulch]

I wish

Small bikes just aren’t a thing here

Ive ridden a rebel 300, 509, CBR500, boulevard 820 and my ninja 400

The Honda CRF250 rally would unironically be a good alternative to the versys

[sick pike]

I saw one for sale

Loaded with stuff too

[fossil gulch]

77mph top speed isn’t too bad either damn

It’s basically a practical dual sport

Ayo there’s a rally 300 now

If I didn’t live on this stupid island, it would be the perfect second bike 😭

[sick pike]

Headlights remind me of bmw GS

Ok

Strong 2nd contender

[fossil gulch]

(Second bike as in alternate bike, not as in the second bike you own)

[sick pike]

Something about that Honda red man

[fossil gulch]

That red with the gold upside down forks 😍

I just watched a man on a Harley somehow stall his bike three times while blowing through an intersection

[cyan wind]

how do you even manage that lmao

[fossil gulch]

Probably too high of a gear

Man slowed down when approaching the stop and then when he tried to accelerate through it, he stalled

[cyan wind]

lmfao

[fossil gulch]

Dude was wearing one of those fake club leathers and one of those Nazi looking helmets lmao

[cyan wind]

what a smart idea 💀

[fossil gulch]

Fake as not a real club, not fake hells patches

Since people here are smarting than that

Since doing that would be like wearing republican army patches in London

[cyan wind]

i was just about to mention the latter lol

[fossil gulch]

Biker war made 90% of people completely fucking hate the hells/Mongols…

So fucking corny, don’t pretend your a hardcore biker when you can’t even take off without stalling💀

[cyan wind]

yeah literally

hardcore biker that doesn't even know clutch control 😭

his ass aint getting past the msf course

[fossil gulch]

Lmao

Kinda guy to unironically blame his crash on grass clippings

[sick pike]

Haddalayerdown

[cyan wind]

haddalayerdown he says, after he can't do a u turn

jinx

[fossil gulch]

Those guys and the road rossis in full leathers going 30 below the speed limit in a curve really confuse me. How are you gonna put significant money and time to look the part and not spend a second to understand the basics

[cyan wind]

yeah it genuinely confuses me

and it's not rocket science to turn a corner at some speed (ironic coming from the 125 rider ), if you can spend thousands on the bike and gear you can spend some time to learn how to steer

[fossil gulch]

5k in race leathers and a carbon pista or 1k for a day of race school

[cyan wind]

for the leathers and agv to be donezo after they slide

[fossil gulch]

And thats why you can find SRR's for 10-15k below MSRP after a few years lmao

hmmmm,

[cyan wind]

"bought a car"

[fossil gulch]

buys a miata

[cyan wind]

actually real

either that or stick to PT

[fossil gulch]

I’m still debating if the new 750GS is worth it over the older 700

It seems to be just some QOL things and electrics but going from a 2019 to a 2009 seems so weird

[fossil gulch]

I can get a 700 for around 7-9k but a 750 is closer to 12-15

[summer badge]

I’m thinking Continental Kumho Bridgestone Hankook and Michelin

Don’t want to skimp and buy cheap tyres

[fossil gulch]

Honestly, on an econobox you probably won’t see that much of a difference between cheap and expensive tires

[rustic willow]

do not be cheap on the things that separate your ass from the ground. Boots, tyres and beds

always been words to live by and they've not done me wrong yet

[fossil gulch]

By cheap, I mean cheap but from a good brand

[rustic willow]

yeah you don't have to break the bank by any means

[fossil gulch]

Don’t buy the “skid more, blowout more” brand tires

[rustic willow]

but don't just get the cheapest stuff

[fossil gulch]

Me on my set of no name brand Chinese tires I bought used

[rustic willow]

ultimately those 4 pieces of rubber are the only thing making contact from the chassis to the road, so make sure they're gud

[fossil gulch]

Yeah, not a smart idea

[rustic willow]

good luck lmao

[twin belfry]

Fridgestone

[fossil gulch]

It’s been 3 seasons and they’ve held up pretty well

They just wear stupid quick and are pretty noisy

My next set will probably be a set of actual brand name tires so since I’m not so broke anymore

[rustic willow]

I mean used tyres in general is definitely a choice I can't lie 😂

yeah, would be a good idea

[fossil gulch]

I was 17 and unemployed

[rustic willow]

fair enough

[fossil gulch]

70 bucks for a set of tires AND rims was a steal

[rustic willow]

70 bucks for 4 tires AND rims? Goddamn

[fossil gulch]

Yeah

[rustic willow]

I think I paid 70 quid EACH for the three tyres I got changed on my car recently lmao

[fossil gulch]

I think 2-3 of the rims ended up being unusable but I found a set of steelies for like 40 that my dad ended up paying for 💀

I’m just glad I have a cheap econo box with a popular tire size

And not something with an absurdly rare or wide tire size that end up being like 250 a piece

I think it cost my dad close to a grand for tires on his model Y

Jesus H Christ

[rustic willow]

Fucking Hell lmao

if I'm paying 314 bucks I'm expecting a fucking F1 slick at that point

[fossil gulch]

EV tires basically are lmao

Since a model Y weighs about the same as a T-72

I don’t even want to think about how much tires are for that ev hummer monstrosity

[cyan wind]

does that include the rim too?

[fossil gulch]

Nope

Still cheaper than 1 motorcycle tire 😭

[cyan wind]

real 😭

the prices are extortionate sometimes

[cyan wind]

that shit better give me TC and ABS with that price

[sick pike]

Ain't no way

Can't believe I found 1 lol

[cyan wind]

they're so minature

[summer badge]

Lol

The Pirellis are cheaper than the Bridgestones and Michelins

[keen kraken]

Bruh I thought it said Fortnite 💀

[summer badge]

They cost the same as a Hankook lol

[keen kraken]

What sort of Pirelli’s

[summer badge]

Powenergy

185 each

While Bridgestones start at 193

This reminds me, when me, my dad and his buddy ride, we always just share a parking spot so that all our bikes are together, and since I have the smallest bike, I usually can park it across like that

[tawny geyser]

if you have no horsepower and dont push your car then you dont need expensive tires

save your money and buy cheaper eco tires

not my panda, but i sooooo wanna set mine up like this

[marble lake]

I got to sit in a togg today (Turkish ev)

Really nice ngl

Also saw this

[dense trellis]

Oh god

[broken portal]

GRAHHH 🇺🇸 🦅

[charred abyss]

Classic car show shitz

[orchid stratus]

That cobra

[charred abyss]

IKR, pretty hot - I liked all the E-types they had there too

[orchid stratus]

Numberplate WWE

[charred abyss]

That Supra had a carbon wing on the rear and the owner drilled a hole through it at the bottom to let the water out 😂

[orchid stratus]

E types are a beauty

[charred abyss]

Honestly, and there was quite a few there which was sick

[orchid stratus]

I can see

[tawny geyser]

We almost had a guilia quadrifoglio, serious car

[charred abyss]

Oh yeah, didn't realise just how sick it was - the bonnet is carbon, splitter etc... - real beautiful car

Also quite cheap for what you get

[tawny geyser]

Depends if you buy new or used

Early cars are £40k

But new ones are near £80k

The one we looked at was £72k

This colour too 😍

Unfortunately it has too much power for the real road, so you kinda can’t use all of what you get

[charred abyss]

legally

[tawny geyser]

No, at all

500bhp is too much for the road

We had a 350bhp bmw and that felt like that limit

[charred abyss]

Find a longer stretch of road

[tawny geyser]

Still when you accelerated on a slip road then you’d only use around 250bhp

[tawny geyser]

Real world driving doesn’t always consist of long stretches of roads

Being fast in corners > being fast in straight lines

Lightweight low power is better in the real world

[charred abyss]

Throw it round some countryside roads, there, sorted

[tawny geyser]

500bhp on country roads?

You don’t throw it around

You’ll end up in a hedge

real world driving doesn’t require 500bhp

[charred abyss]

Drive better

[tawny geyser]

I have 54bhp in my car and that’s plenty fun in the corners, and I’ll never get caught speeding

[tawny geyser]

No, just be realistic

[tawny geyser]

Not being able to use all the Bhp is boring too

[charred abyss]

Mate, it was a joke - not everything is serious 😂

[tawny geyser]

Do you drive?

[charred abyss]

Bro it wasn't serious, I'm well aware you can't just throw cars round country roads - spent enough time around them

[tawny geyser]

Thought not

[charred abyss]

Dad lives in the sticks, driving under the limit is often a bit much for these shitty roads, I am not that stupid 😂

[pseudo gull]

it’s at the upper limit of usable power but you can get away with it

sweet spot is definitely lower though

maybe like 300-350, lighter weight, rwd, manual

[fathom rose]

After driving this 997 today, Ill never talk bad about manual Porsches ever again

I usually have bad experiences driving manual Porsches/VWs

[obtuse plover]

WHATTTT

[charred abyss]

🙂 got to talk to some of the owners of those cars too, pretty dece

[twin belfry]

997’s are awesome cars

[dense trellis]

How was it? You do anything fun with it or just daily stuff?

[marble lake]

Koenigsegg is the best car manufacturer, change my mind

[tawny geyser]

Not to be that guy

But

Porsche exists

Alfa Romeo make that most character filled cars

And best looking

[marble lake]

Yes I know the 911 gt3 rs is one of my favourite cars but koenigsegg is superior in every way to any other brand

[iron epoch]

Koenigsegg in motorsports when

[tawny geyser]

My ride for the day 😍

[pseudo gull]

koenigseggs break constantly and need to go back to the factory pretty often for really expensive maintenance and problem fixes lol

they’re not as good as people say they are

[marble lake]

Still

2000hp family car

[pseudo gull]

they have yet to build the jesko absolut they’ve been going on about for ages

the gemera doesn’t exist and work yet

and they fucked over all the customers who ordered the 3cyl gemera

technologically advanced? sure

good brand? not really

[marble lake]

Eh I only really liked the agera and regera anyways

[pseudo gull]

you just bragged about the gemera having 2000 horsepower though lol

also i have a bone to pick with the revers

regera

[marble lake]

Yeah I know

[pseudo gull]

who the fuck puts a cvt in a hypercar

such a stupid idea

[marble lake]

That’s the only insane thing about it really

[iron epoch]

bro they still havent built that shit?

gonna be waiting for that longer than the tesla 2.0

[pseudo gull]

yeah lmao

it’s still not real

“oh but it’ll do 320 mph!!1!1!1!1!!!!1!” rn it won’t do 20

[iron epoch]

lmao

[pallid ruin]

@pseudo gull nu uh

[iron epoch]

devel 16 energy

[pseudo gull]

yuh huh

[tawny geyser]

literally who needs 2000hp

the most power you need is 300 MAX

even then thats too much

[iron epoch]

fr

2000 is too much

i can barely handle 500 hp on gt7

[pseudo gull]

300 is on the lower side

but 2000 is way too high

[keen kraken]

Man I wanna own a mid 2010s Caddy

[fathom rose]

Lets just say I "took it around back"

[tawny geyser]

No, 300 is the most you’ll need

[pseudo gull]

i’ve driven cars with more than 300 horsepower and they’ve been fine lol

sure you can’t use all the power everywhere but that goes for cars with like 100 horsepower too

[iron epoch]

100 goes crazy

[pseudo gull]

facts, 100 horsepower in a lightweight car is great fun

this only has a little over 40 and it’s one of the best things i’ve ever driven

[iron epoch]

I was driving the Honda S800 in gt7 and I know it's only a game but it was so fun

the car has great handling

probably has a little over 100

[pseudo gull]

if it was stock it had 70

[iron epoch]

lol that looks cool

how much did it weigh

[pseudo gull]

about 580 kilos with me in it

<1,300 lbs

[iron epoch]

wow

I have yet to drive on a track

still need my drivers license

[tawny geyser]

100hp you can use on the real road

Our 350hp m140i youd only ever use 250 max accelerating onto slip roads

Lightweight and less power is the way forward for fun on real roads (country lanes etc)

[pseudo gull]

i’ve driven a 410 horsepower 993 turbo on b roads and it was great

there were places i could use all the power, there were places i didn’t need it

also country lanes aren’t real roads, they’re so much smaller and tighter than most roads lol

you’d be an idiot to drive along them quickly

[iron epoch]

I wanna be Dom and Brian in the opening scene of Fast and Furious 6

[keen kraken]

Ive got a conundrum

Which is better?

A Tesla Model S Plaid

or a

Rover 75?

I know the Tesla has all the bells and whistles and is fast as hell

but the Rover's a Rover

and that's enough to hold on its own

[sick pike]

Why are you comparing a rover to a Tesla

[fathom rose]

I would get neither

[sick pike]

One is a car with terrible build quality
The other is a rover

[tawny geyser]

and for rover

its over

[fathom rose]

One is terrible build quality and the other is terrible engine reliability

From this morning

[keen kraken]

Why is your steering wheel on the WRONG side of the car

[twin belfry]

Because this is the USA

[iron epoch]

you mean the right side

well the left side 😎

sorry

[twin belfry]

And cars over here are LHD

[tawny geyser]

well my fiat panda can hold 3 girls so

by my logic

fiat panda > mclaren f1

[fathom rose]

First time seeing one in the wild

[tawny geyser]

So jealous

We don't get them in the EU grrrr

[woeful creek]

do they sell them in Japan?

[obtuse plover]

Although that colour reminds me of scrambled eggs 😭

[iron epoch]

still not a big fan of the design

it's grown on me a little

[sick pike]

Lucky bastard, you are

[cyan wind]

was really clean aswell, owner must've given it alot of love

[dense trellis]

Rightfully so, man I wish we got more of those smaller displacement inline 4s over here in the states, they seem like such fun bikes

Like the 250s and the 400s

We have some 400s

But most start at 600

And the 250s are unicorns over here basically because they are all imported

[candid fulcrum]

Was it worth the money?

Hell yes

@cyan wind 👀👀

One of the rims came with a scratch already in the process of getting a new rim and gonna Just drive on it for now

[fossil gulch]

There’s a lot of 400’s and 500s in NA

Pretty much all the big brands offer a 4 or 5 hundred CC

Wait, nvm

Those aren’t inline 4s

There’s the ZX4R

[cyan wind]

yes

[fossil gulch]

Why not just get the scratch repaired?

[candid fulcrum]

Its more of a dent than a scratch

But i could probably buff it out

But the fect is they still sent me something damaged

So

[flint wasp]

humans whom may be older than me here

vats a good first car dawg

[fossil gulch]

Probably something boring like a civic/Corolla/fit/Yaris

[flint wasp]

my motha got a yaris

vats a good budget better question

[fossil gulch]

Depends entirely on where you are.

[urban gust]

Corolla’s may not be the coolest ride ever but my good friend has one from the 90s with about as many kilometers on it as you could imagine and that shit’s still chugging. Mad easy for us to fix ourselves too. Good shit.

[fossil gulch]

Here a running driving car that’s not a pile of rust is probably 7-10k but if you live somewhere with a climate that doesn’t eat cars alive you can probably get them for a grand or two

[fossil gulch]

Yeah I own a 07 Honda fit and it’s boring af but it’s easy to drive, easy to fix and realistically I’m not all that worried if it gets dinged or scratched doing something stupid

It just reached 150 000 kilometers last weekend and it’s still running fantastically

[urban gust]

A gently used decent workhorse of a car will get you far in life, especially for a first car when you’re still very young. Unless you’re in a terrain that actively necessitates something beefier or in that car A LOT most small little workhorses do the trick and then some.

What’s it for again?

[fossil gulch]

Its to protect the splitter before it gets to the dealer

ah

[fossil gulch]

It should be taken off before the car gets given to the customer

[dense trellis]

Is it just a piece of plastic?

[fossil gulch]

Yeah

[dense trellis]

Is it held on or just pressed on?

[fossil gulch]

Kinda like the plastic films on electronics

i've also found out the varadero is nearly full bike size, which i wouldn't had predicted

And I’m surprised by the size difference of their wheels and its whole front

i wonder how big my varadero will be compared against persay a 400
