yeah tbf i could barely flat foot my dads versys
Pretty sure even if you’re 7ft you still couldn’t flat foot a KTM1290 adv
Tilting it isn’t that bad buuuuuuuuut I don’t wanna sacrifice EAS or pay thousands to get it working for my short ass
Like 5’8
ah right
Ideally something like a 1000sx or GSX100R-GT would be a perfect sport touring
Buuuuuuuuuut I want the upright riding position and some off-road capability
i honestly didnt even think suzuki would make tourers
It’s a gixxer with panniers
sounds about right
Same with the 1000sx
It’s a super sport that’s been chilled just enough to fool the gov and insurance
lmao
Saaaaaame 
I have school in the morning but idc
that was me through my short journey through college
anyways, goodnight and i'll report back with anything
gn
So I need y'all opinion on an argument we've been having on a different server
Would a Speed triple 1200 RR be a good enduro bike
yeah definitely ( i know nothing about bikes)
was just about sleep but i had to come back to say no
smh, we're trying to convince someone on another server to turn his into an ADV bike
Because he wants to buy a thruxton final 💀
it could work
but I think a twin cyl might be a better option for an enduro
so here's everything that i know of that needs replacing
handlebars are bent so that'll be sorted on Thursday iirc
also managed to get the seat off, it's got hondas owners manual and service manual which is sweet
also a little compartment of tools which is also a plus
steering lock is broken too but that's no surprise
can i ask why you bought a varadero of all yamahas
i dont think ive ever seen one before actually
Not in an insulting way or anything
because 125s are too small for me so i'd need something big for me
and the varadero is the only 'big' 125 out there atm
apart from like a sinnis terrain or a derbi terra but that'll break down on you every 40 minutes
yeah they're quite rare
they got discontinued in 2016, and the one i got is a 2007
fair enough actually
How tall are you
i think youd die if you sat on my bikes
nah he wouldnt
ye
had that for my cbt
mate im 5ft 7 and even i find sitting on the TZR a different level of uncomfortable
you arent 5 foot 7 harv
5ft 8
i swear i had to take a break after 40 mins cus i was cramping and kept accidentally shifting
i bet you're 5'9
icl i dont even know my height
last time i measured it was in year 8
and im in year 11 now
maybe you're 6'5
incredible
i would rather be 5ft 9
or 8
perfect size for bikes
wdym???!?!?!?!??! being above 6'2 is great!!!!
cb125f's are bearable for me for like an hour or two then i start hurting
5'10-11 is perfect size
size 12 feet sounds great until it doesnt
hahahah
rossi was 5'10 or 5'11
i'm size 13
im size 9
im size 9-10
no just depends on the brand
thats incredible
but thatd be incredible
thatd be ridicioulous
im imagining size 13 kickers school shoes
dangerous weapons
to get your head booted with
fuckin lethal
harv do you want to hear a great story
its about a gigantic fat year 7
I think thats a story for the dm's
Probably not a 125 
ackshually your not allowed anything over 125cc when you begin riding soooooooo your WROGGn
wrong
Wait not restricted by height, not just not restricted
Euro problem.jpeg
yzr500?
haha
lock those powervalves open
its nothing utnil 8k rpm then 170hp all at once
the rg500 gamma has a great powerband thats friendly for new riders!
i looked at cb125r's before i realised i was gonna be too tall, but at the end of the day it's just the same overpriced stuff for the majority of 125's
real sigma buy 2 stroke
Why do y’all wanna ride bikes that are like 20 years older then y’all
I l ike 2 stroke my willy
modern bikes SUCK!!!!!!
You’ll spend 90% of the time fixing the damn thing
wrong
well YZR500 is still faster than most bikes today
haha that is the kind of comment thats starts wars
Perishables remain perishable
nuh uh
it depends on the bike really, i mean a TZR250 from 1987 is bullet proof
Wires start to degrade, plastics fail, bearings wear…
its not that deep
my dad has had his fireblade for 26 years and it has had 2-3 issues and its stock alarm only just died about a month ago
so
beat that
Obviously as time goes on you replace things but thats just how cars and bikes work
theres nothing you cant replace
It’s not that you can’t fix it, it’s that you will have to at some point
i love the CAGIVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have to do the same with every bike anyway
over the fireBLADE!
unless 4 strokes have developed so much that people dont even know what the inside of their engine looks like
then again thats how it seems to be with 125cc 4 stroke nowadays
The first bike I rode was a rebel 250 and basically every time I rode it there was something to fix, the carbs had to be retuned, the clutch had to be readjusted or replaced, the rear drum had to be manually adjusted, the lights would work intermittently because the grounding wires where corroded…
It’s all fixable and stuff
But it’s more work than a modern bike. You don’t have to adjust carbs or rear drums on a modern bike
As a purely “fun” bike, old school all day everyday
But for a daily commuter and weekend tourer, new school no question
i see a guy from our school daily an aprilia rs50
its great
just doesnt help hes a bit of a nonce
thats just bad luck though lol, theres TZR250s, a design from the 70s, that have 50k miles on them and still go.. bear in mind these are 2 strokes as well which are known for blowing up fast
you only speak the truth
rEspect
i hear that
is it because you have an rs250
or is it because like you inhale 2 stroke fumes daily
even at school
because thats fe
Wait, don’t you already have hand warmers installed?
Isn’t that the whole point of the Oxford controller on the dash?
they're fucked
Is it just a wiring issue?
Indeed, anywhere near the NY border is stupidly pretty in the fall
All the leafs change color
And the roads get nicer
for sure
over here it's the same all season but the amount of clouds change 
also it's going in for a service on thursday, so most the issues on it will be sorted for then
Mountain bikes are still bikes so I got a new helmet
@fossil gulch called up bikesure, they want drumroll..... £3300
so they think i'm gonna write off my bike, and then have £1500 spare
the battery also just died 🙃
praying it's just a dead battery, if it's a starter motor i'm fuuuuuuuccckkeeddd
It’s the battery
It’s 100% the battery
Motorcycle batteries are fairly shit to begin with
it is
it's charging as we speak, then i need to be up at like 6am to put it back in and lend my dad the keys and get it over to the mech before a storm hits
There should be a date code on the battery
You can check it and if it’s more than like 3-5 years old it’s probably due for a replacement
i didn't find one
but either way, we're gonna get it there and replace it
praying it actually starts, else we find a nearby hill and bump start it
Did you get it fixed
yeah, got taken to a mechanic today
Oh nice
it was just the battery thankfully, and the mech said we got a good deal apparently
hopefully gonna have it back for monday if nothing serious needs changing
apparently did 75 on a straight, which does actually surprise me
i thought it'd be something like 65
Oh, that’s not bad at all
Assuming you mean miles
Otherwise 💀, my sympathies
i do mean miles dw 😭
it is a twin after all, thats great for a 125
dad said it's good, steering bearings don't feel fucked or anything so i think we're in the clear
apparently the throttle is a bit sticky but it could be worse
apparently the engine and gearbox feel good aswell
either i'll have it back on monday or a bit later
Still haven’t ridden it yet?
I remember when I bought my bike, my dad decided to take it for a spin before putting it away for winter and he called me in a panic
Dude thought the gearbox was broken because he wasn’t used to riding without a quickshift
not yet really, i've moved it around where i park it and stuff with little bits of feeling the clutch / throttle but nothing big
though i hopefully should have it back / insured for monday
LMFAO
😭
apparently the mechanic was pleased with it when my dad rolled up on it, so i think we got a good deal
the bike feels nice, only thing is the pegs are a bit in a tight position for my legs
Mechanics being happy either means it’s a good pick or they’re about to make a lot of money 
But given it’s a 125 and not a Ducati, it’s probably the former
You can probably get aftermarket rear sets if the peg situation bothers you too much
British racing green my beloved
I love that more manufacturers are offering it as a color option
Or something close to it
yeah i was gonna say, considering you could probs get a new engine for maybe 800 i imagine it's the former 
yeah it's more the positioning than anything
tbf though i've only really sat on it, i'll see what i think a few months in
Guess what I've found
Veneno?
tbh it looks fake
Oh cool
😭
The worst I got quoted was 450 pounds for all inclusive coverage + value to replace
god i wish
It'd be funny if it was a kit car
Is that a beetle or something parked next to it lmao
The duality of man
isnt he slowing down every time he goes back? cause of the wheels momentum stopping every time it makes contact
Holy mother of shooting brakes
Dream car
Giacomo Agostini and a Corvette?!
yep
Goddamn, that is just as interesting as him driving a Marlboro liveried Williams in the British F1 championship
Meanwhile here’s Ago at the 1979 Race of Champions
a lot of people forget that ago almost switched to f1
i wouldnt be surprised if people didnt know rossi got super close to switching too
Ago did quite well in the British F1 championship, but I’m not sure how he’d get on in the main series
rossi afaik is probably the best all round motorsport guy
like ever
at a test track he was 0.7 off michael schumacher on his first go with f1
and when he tried nascar he was something like 0.2 of kyle busch
and he was good at rally
and obviously races gt3 now
And he won a race at Misano
His adaptability is something to behold
@fossil gulch @tulip bramble managed to go for a ride on the vara, seems good so far
the throttle seems a bit weird but apart from that it rides great
Because you give gas and it’s still slow
But it’s an old bike, it might just need to be lubed
Or it’s a new rider and you just need to get used to it
well it is an old bike
so throttle response isnt prolly that great
Video my mum got at 2011 goodwood
had my first ride on my own, just went to fuel up, go shops and back
felt quite weird, idk how to describe it
defo gonna try and sort a day and try and go out for a bit longer and faster than 40 mph 
It looks like a ford explorer🤮
https://www.reddit.com/r/subaru/s/kTW25uIJEU
yeah that's grim
This is some extra video of what led up to Shia staring at me.
Info on CA Lane Splitting - http://lanesplittingislegal.com/

think it's new 'technology' to improve back ache or something
does anyone know anything car related thats happening tmr in central london
traffic
i don't mind that tbf
though the engine exposed like that sounds like disaster
girl
looks pretty traditional to me
i mean i dont see an issue with that
its his car
he can do a drift if he wants
just dont hit other people
blud cant even drive his car
average 17 year old new driver
You’ll eventually get more used to it
Just don’t fear it
yeah i try not to, i just take it slow
same with any slow handling without giving it power
i also need to get myself a reminder cable for my disk lock, nearly moved it with it on
banger deal
yeah legit, they're doing a massive sale rn
i'll probs get alot of new stuff from there, i need it
my gloves are small, jacket is handmedown and massive, then my over trousers are fine
Yeah, good/comfy gear helps a lot
definitely, my gloves in the cold feel like oven mits so i'm all over the shop with clutch control
My first pair of gloves where too tight so the webbing of between my thumb and finger would get numb real fast
Don’t forget that gloves stretch a bit but not that much
yeah, what my dad told me was to get gloves with space in the fingers so you have some wiggle room to clutch in / clutch out
same with the front brake
You want some wiggle room
Too much and the fabric starts to bunch up under your palms and gets annoying
yeah for sure
yeah i had that coming back from ireland, i don't wish it upon anyone
Someone stole my only pair of comfy gloves so I got some shopping to do too 😭
I left one of them in a lecture hall and went back before the next class and it was gone
did you check lost & found?
I also need a new pair of boots but imma wait to see if I get an adv bike or not
Waiting on king George to gimme a contract 😭
I need the crown to give me a new contract so I justify buying a new bike
A used GS750 is most likely it
A new GS800 or tiger 800 if I get a pay bump 
Or my dad’s old S1000XR if he ends up buying a K1600
Only problems with the tiger is that it’s got a British reputation and parts support is a bit worse then a bmw
But the Germans reputation isn’t much better
It’s either British and it will break or it’s German and it may not break but if it does it’s 20000000 to fix
yeah, personally i know bmw and triumph as a mechanics dream
but hey, if you can get one that stays alive that'll be sweet
Ideally it would be a tenere 700
But it’s easier to buy a 911 GT3 then one of those
Since they’ve got year-2 year wait lists
atleast people keep em 
Or if they are, they’re bought-up instantly
I don’t have the luxury of being able to pull out 12-14k same day
Others are able to pull that off and will win out
yeah for sure
I’d also be open to a new Vstrom if the dealer is willing to go down to 8-10K
Only bikes I don’t want are the panamerica, the desert X and the KLR
Anything else I’m open to if the price is tight
that's why i've not heard of it lmfao
i've heard horror stories about HD, so i wouldn't personally
oh that's certainly a look
It’s not a traditional Harley
And being in NA the parts support is quite good
Buuuuut
It’s a new bike from a brand not known for this kinda bike
So long term support and quality is a question
And price is GS1200 levels
Its also a 1200 I think
It’s a direct competitor to the GS
since a lot of the people who’d normally buy Harley’s (aka retirees) are now buying adv/sport tourers
Don’t blame them either
Even discounting their bikes reputation, the reputation of the brand and its riders isn’t favorable either
Harley spent decades marketing it as a bike for 1%ers and outlaws and now the people who can buy them don’t wanna be associated with that
It would be like triumph spending 20 years making knife crime and up the ra ads and wondering why no one in the UK wants to buy them anymore
Hell, even the president of the most violent hells angles chapter regrets sticking with Harley’s 😭
Most famous hells angel and one of the most brutal time periods hates Harley’s
an ST1100 aint even that bad as a replacement
Nah, it’s basically a goldwing
Which is based AF
legit lmfao
i mean he is right, harleys do suck arse
Goldwings ftw
literally looks like it's ^_^

you get a fuck ton of pain from the wound after falling from a 10mph run, now imagine that same knee at 90mph 
What's da most overrated car
most jdm cars
somedays i wish i never had eyes
My dad come by to pickup the bike to store it for the winter and both his front brakes on his truck seized up
Ffs
fuckin ouch
https://youtu.be/o6NefiFAu-Y?si=KoRa0AxG9ITlzVuH just remembered this old ass vid, good reminder to wear gear
MotoGP bike crashing and destroying left footpeg
And the brake lines blew out from rust
On the more positive side, I might be able to keep it if i can fix it
playing with fire 🤣
veyron
R34, R35, Supra, etc. Usually JDMs
I guess any Hellcat counts too
Ok
@cyan wind
check this out
60’s Filipino HPGs used to rock Beamers as Patrol bikes
we rocking 650 Versys’ now, aint as cool as the beamers tho
yeahh, first time I saw that was also the time I took an oath to wear gear despite the distance of where I’m travelling 
shit, I forgot to turn off the ping
took my first ride from my dad's and back on my own, fucking freezing
gave it a good wash too
Fellow car bois, I have a question
very nice
What nationality is the Ford RS200?
It’s made by Ford UK, so therefore it’s British
THANK YOU
I got into the debate with someone cause they said it's American because it's a Ford
So I was like... It was manufactured by RMC tho
The dude must’ve forgotten about Ford’s overseas divisions
Either that or he doesn’t know them at all
Right?
I mean yea
I can see that too but when I said Its British he got very defensive
So I figured I could get 2nd opinions on it
Oh, well that's cringe
Yea lol
I figured I was also being stupid or maybe too harsh saying it was British

But so far everyone I've asked says British
imagine his reaction when he finds out that ford germany and ford australia exists
He knows
He just used the Logic that Ford is the parent, they all say "Ford"
Ford was founded in the US
Basically a "The badge says it is" kinda moment

When the badge is like... literally the ONLY thing American about the RS200 
any holden commodore fans here??
Who doesn't like an onboard? This is a 'Hicky' onboard like no other!
This time, we were able to mount the camera inside the helmet, if you look closely, you can see my eyebrow!
The sun was low and it was my last last chance in qualifying to take pole position from @daveytodd74 for the Macau Grand Prix on on my @FHORacing BMW M 1000 RR !

Ever the showman in MotoGP, the wheelie king Kevin Schwantz certainly knew how to entertain the crowd on his 500cc two-stroke Suzuki RGv500 weapon, even around the highly dangerous and challenging Macau Grand Prix street circuit with its walls and armco in super close proximity!
Check out our new Kevin Schwantz tribute t-shirt: https://bitly.ws...
idk what it is, but i love the look of old school leaning
there's alot of things i'd do in the life, and race around macau isn't one of them 
I’d want to do Macau….. but would I really?
i think at the chance i would, but on paper i definitely wouldn't
yeah, it's kinda like you're attached to the bike
And back in the 500cc days, you seriously had to attach yourself to those bikes
legit lmao
between the way the bikes back then got handled and the looks, it's one of those era's that can't be forgotten
haha yeah i rebranded to brawn for the month
A video from the 1986 8 Hours of Suzuka.
This is the year Yamaha gave Roberts $750k to race the event, and his leathers sponsor gave him $500,000. A good bit of the Team Roberts GP team budget was "assisted" by him racing this event.
Either the EXUP or the FIVE Valve went kablooey.
god those bikes were so pretty
the way they all stick on the bike and only let a knee out is satisfying
Yea

I love that bike

The Daytona 200 is still an underrated motorsport event imo
i honestly didn't even know daytona 200 was a thing
It’s been a thing for a quite a while
Superbikes going toe to toe on the Daytona road course

god that looks terrifying
I can’t imagine doing the Daytona RC on a bike or at Macau. But it looks hella awesome
jesus that's so fucking close
to be able to have that type of awareness of your surroundings at 200mph is just incredible
Yep
https://youtube.com/shorts/TEJbR3uFsoU?si=FOs0AyPrPgv3Fn1j the goat, milky
So honor, when are we gonna see you going around the Isle of Man
Nah, let’s see him do the 8 hours of Suzuka
Also that new bike dream just got a lot closer if I can sell off the pickup truck my dad dumped in my yard
If I got the opportunity to take a lap, you'd bet I'd be recording all that shit

i would fall off 2hrs in
Can’t you just take a ferry there?
Yeah, i mean when just before the actual races they'll let people do laps
And some parts don't have speed limits 
Yeeeehawwww
That would be a great time
I'm also gonna try and get my old ass camera up and running and get some footage of some twisties
i really want a chin mount, but obvs with a modular i can't really
If it’s similar to the one I have it should work with a modular helmet
Assuming it’s the type that swings up and not those shitty scooter ones where the chin bar comes off
well damn, but 30 quid 😭
This type I mean
(Yes it’s a snowmobile helmet but that’s the type of modular I’m used to 😂)
only thing is, the button is just under the centre of the helmet
so i think the straps would pull it
yeah it does that, i hate the wrap-arounds
You could probably put the mount the other way around but ehhhh
i'll be getting some spare money soon from my ctf, so i might just put it to that and try it
and if its good, maybe upgrade the camera
BMW please stop
Stop detuning the engine and calling it a smaller displacement bike
That yellow makes me act up tho
yeah that's kinda nice
bmw things amirite
holy shit 💀
i never saw the point of keyless start, apart from the chance of bending a key
Tire pressure control and engine brake control are totally pointless
It’s a useless feature that’s pretty cheap for manufacturers to implement and they can charge a high price since it’s a “new” feature for bikes
yeah
sounds about right
tbf literally most of that doesn't sound out of the world
apart from the useless engine brake and tire pressure stuff
Most of it is software stuff people will never use
Ride modes, abs pro, dynamic tc, gear shift assistant pro…
My dad has the basic gear shift assistant on his XR and it’s just a red light on the gauge that turns on when the bike thinks it’s time to shift
It already has a quick shift
Shift assist just tells you when to kick down
Or at least that’s what I think it is
Because a quick shift is stock on the 850 (so the dealer said at least
)
lmfao no way
@fossil gulch new proposed licensing, i like it
hopefully gets passed too
so with that, i could get my full a1, and ride something up to 30hp
it does make alot more sense, and actually makes the A1 license useful lmao
The different licenses for 17 and 18 don’t really make much sense
Like you aren’t gonna mature that much in 12 months
But I guess it’s an improvement over existing laws
Imo it should just go off rider experience
Force riders onto smaller bikes for their first year of riding regardless of age and then let them have a go on the bigger bikes after a year
yeah, it's not the best but it's better than what it is currently
IMO, I still think a 17 year old could handle a ninja 400 just fine
Like a Varadero 125 is the same size and weight as a ninja 400
So it’s not even an argument about being unable to handle and maneuver the bike
yeah easily
125's are too small for anyone
How do you like riding on your own so far?
i definitely feel like i can focus on my own riding alot more, felt alot more smooth and able to understand the bike
i'm just waiting on it to be dry, but i'm gonna go on a bit of a longer but simple journey
that's what i plan to do
might also try and get my camera working on a chest strap and see how that looks
this is what one of the roads looks like, super nice
New Toyota Celica is set to blend radical EV tech and old-school thrills ⚡
https://buff.ly/3G5MdCx
💖 1433
Istg if it’s EV
This just looks like a chunkier supra
agreed
the least they could do is have it look something more like the 00s Celica
but yeah it looks more like a Supra than a Celica
Or the GT4
that too
I feel like they were going for that look, but instead they ended up making a Supra with extra steps
also what's wrong with it potentially being an EV?
ev sucks
Rimac Nevera 💪
They're doing it for the ZX-10, 6 and 4R
Opinion on the new Motocompacto?
what a trio of photos
Sound like power steering pump?
Makes noise not moving if I turn wheel. Also makes noise going straight in 1st to 3rd.
Happened a week ago. Getting worse. Seems like the fluid is high enough but I'm not mechanically savvy
Doxd myaelf first vid. Here's coming forward while I edit my plate from first one
@pseudo gull
2007 civic 180k miles
@fathom rose oh honda wizard, can you divine what’s broken on this holiest of civic
My uneducated guess is the power steering pump @fossil gulch
Just found out I'm getting a 2015 rav hand-me-down with 150k miles but it was owned by a Toyota HQ engineer so it should have been perfectly ain't aimed.
This 07 civic was well maintained and even just had an entire overall before I picked it up from my bro. Fluids, shocks, brake pads and rotors, plugs, ignition... So I was surprised to see something new go wrong. I want it in best condition for when sold in 2 months so he can recoup parts and effort for doing all that for me
KBB says 2k to 4k, CarMax said 600 bc they will auction it. It's great condition minus the clear coat but that was common in 06-11 civics. Already got a 2k offer just asking around but this needs to be fixed before I go to other places for a better price
I didnt do It this time
Ducati did it
You can’t just name a bike that
Wann buy your own futa
It’s 11 000 Canadian dollars
What the fuuuuuuuck
It is 4K less than a hypermotard
christ almighty
vase..
It doesn’t even have campangolo as standard
You could’ve named it
“Desmociclo”
But nope
Futa was the more appropriate choice
I wonder if some junior eng/product marking guy was like “lets call it the futa” knowing full well the implications and then senior management just rolled with it without checking
Even reviewers know what’s up
there must've been one dude that was concerned at the name
Like at least stuff like the STI gets a pass since it’s an acronym that existed before the unfortunate acronym became popular
But this, in the internet age come one
Futa isn’t even that good of a name regardless
would look a lot better on the ZX10
gotta check that out
i think the new cbr600 and fireblade are the best ive seen visually of the 2024 lineup
Oooog I haven't seen the new cbr600
and I was correct, does look hot
The baby fireblade is one of the prettiest sport bikes for sale rn
easily
fucking A
I’d still choose a Fireblade over a Beamer and a Ducati
the looks are just perfectly balanced
you also get reliability which is a plus 
I’d still take the Ducati or bmw over a Honda
It’s got the looks but unfortunately it’s still a Honda and I’m a little brand whore
What’s wrong with Honda
small Honda wins 
they’re all equally the same price wise, RR-R is around 35-40k iirc, same goes for the S1kRR and the V4R
so its basically a choose your poison thing when you got that money 
But still, its either the Beamer or Honda for me
Ducati’s extremely nice and all, but, I want the Inline 4 sound 🙏
tho V4’s definitely sound more aggressive
If I’m not mistaken, the RR is still a bit better equipped from stock than the firebird but unless you’re track riding, you won’t really notice
yeah Beamers got better stuff
wait S1000? or the CBR1000RR?
confused
too many bikes with 2 R’s 
S1000RR vs firebird
Ohh yeahh
Firebird has a third r
yupp
Only bike I’ve heard of with a triple R
but yeahh, S1k’s are definitely better stock than the firebird
All the old homologation kawasakis no?
Do they?
Or are they just rr
Ohhh
I think just RR
ZX7RR
Honda’s the first brand I’ve heard to add another R to alot of R’s 
Patiently gonna wait on the RR-R-R 🙏
Also the ZX4RR
If George RR Martin had a bike, which RR bike would it be
ZX10RR too
Gold wing
The bagger comp version
I mean, maybe. But I was expecting like an S1000RR, CBR1000RR, or something
cause y’know.
he has RR in his name
striple RR
Why does it give me Petronas vibes
It’s a painted CBR600
It’s the same sort of blue color
I can’t get over that front cowling
Not having lights makes it look so wack
*yes i know It can’t have lights because of racing rules and shit but idk, no front lights is weird
I have no problem with it
Idk, the lack of headlights just confuse me
Even tho I know some tracks make you take them out or tape over them for trackdays
What bike is that tho
I can’t make them out with the headlights
It’s the exact same bike. The Foggy Petronas FP1
A short video featuring sounds and the flames of Foggy Petronas FP1 race machine.
3 cylinder power
Yea
Speaking of 3 cylinder racing bikes, here’s the Aprilia RS Cube https://youtu.be/iu3tc-d4FYY?feature=shared
Aprilia RS3 being tested by Regis Laconi
It competed in MotoGP
Just feels odd that compared to everyone else, Aprilia went for an inline 3.
I will always hâte Aprilla for killing off the shiver before I could buy one
It’s such a nice bike but no aprilla decided that their lineup should just be a shitty scooter, an ADV and five different versions of the same super sport
In dark green
God i want it so bad
I want a Unimog so bad
They pop up for sale on bring a trailer for fairly good prices too
It’s just so much work to fix them up
same
its the second best Military-Civilian Merc I want since the 1st Gen G-Wagon
guys whats this
Some sort of CBR
yupp
prolly a 600
judging by the size
@cyan wind @fossil gulch
holy hell I just saw an S1000RR
M spec
fucken beauttttttt
swing arms different tho
oh and dual brakes on the front
so definitely not the 500
actually, now looking at it, Its prolly an older CBR1000. Older models were almost as big as the 600s
yupp, CBR1000
2017 model is prolly it
manuel always
Curious about the Jesko Attack's track prowess?
To provide a glimpse into the level of performance, here's a lap of the Jesko Attack at Gotland Ring in September 2023. Gotland Ring is one of the longer tracks in Europe, at 7.3km. It has a number of jumps and undulations, presenting similar challenges to the even longer Nürburgring.
The ambie...
Koenigsegg jesko has a lap record
Saw this today
What do you guys think of the Royal Enfield Classic 350?
great contender for leisure riding
ergonomics are definitely comfortable, and doesnt carry much power
you’ll get the most fun out of it
Is there an audi v12 other than audi q7
u from truckers mp??
Yes
👍👍
magnificent spec on that gt3rs
Damn this track doesn't let bro chill
In this world-exclusive comprehensive First Review of the Tesla Cybertruck, Jason Cammisa tests Tesla’s Cyberbeast — in acceleration, handling, maneuverability, dent-resistance, and safety — and races it down the ¼-mile against the Rivian R1T Quad-Motor AWD and GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 Pickup.

This episode of “Jason Cammisa on the ICONS” is p...
hope it blows up
Congrats @signal berry, you're now on lap 5
lmao
i havent even watched the video, just the visual look of it, and the fact its electric makes me want to end it
Cybertruck has a horrid design
I think I get where its going
but we aint there yet
shoulda kept a more fitting look for a potentially fun truck
but its Tesla soo
go unique or go home
i hope tesla fucking gets crippled and slowly and painfully dies as a company
Agreed. But Tesla have also gained free advertising from people commenting on their design
hi guys
earning 5k€ and spending 2.5k€ to buy a 150k€ car for 60 months is a good deal?
How much is it after interest?
Also no
Spending 50% of your income on car payments is an awful idea
Because after insurance and repairs, it’s probably gonna be closer to 75%
Also I feel like most maintenance on a 150k is gonna be over 5k after parts and labor
The bike is finally in its winter storage
very nice
i'm also gonna go out and get some new gear, looking for gloves and a jacket but i also kinda want a helmet
aint leaving its home until its summer again ey?
invest on helmet
by means of safety, it’d be better to start off with a decent helmet
it's all in need of investing
yes
bad fitting jackets are basically inept
if you've got large bits of space between the elbow and the protection, it does more bad than good
I think if I were to start riding
i have my eye on one helmet
I’d get one of those vests with padding on them
closely similar to the ones used for merican football
tho problem with that is it only protects your torso and not your arms
I’ve tried fitting the riding jacket we have here
its definitely a hassle to take it off and hold onto it
nolan n80, basically what i have now without the flip up part lol
it wont fold
yeah you kinda need overall protection
yepp
dress for the slide not the ride
still bothered that ImKay still fucks around with tank tops while riding his H2R
he'll realise you should wear gear once he becomes a meat crayon
Well, given it just snowed 15cm, probably not
one thing i've realised with full faces, is they're actually way fuckin lighter
yepp
I wanted a modular helmet
actually I still do
they also look as cool as full faces and way more comfortable when you’re not moving
cause you can half face it
i really want the nolan, but i want to use my earbuds but they'll fall out easily
Been seeing beautiful bikes lately
saw an s1krr the other week
and it sounds hefty
modulars are great, especially at petrol stations and any other time you need your face without taking off your helmet
I bet it sounds like a fuck ton of fun at 16k 
i swear i've been the only fucker with a bike on the roads recently lol

can't blame them though the roads are dreadful
winters coming, they’re preparing
I wanna get a bike
I wanna travel long distances with light carry
backpack with 1 day worth of clothes
then go home the next day
seems fun
except for the heat. Winter is the same as every season here
winter isnt even a word here 
Only 2 seasons here, wet and dry seasons
by July, it starts pouring little by little
then some time in August, its prolly continuous rain until September
I’m fine with the sunny Christmas season here instead of the rain
You can just get a cardo spirt or something
ECE
so how much should you earn least to buy it?
Idk, talk to a financial advisor
But realistically, look at all your other expenses in a year
See how much they cost first
See how much money you’d have left over to spend on car payments
And then look how much maintenance and insurance… will cost
That should tell you the bare minimum you need to make to afford it
if you can bump it up by another 100, I think you’d be able to get an AGV
I think Shark has some 300$ models as well
i think modular is bare minimum
but i'd never get a modular, most of them have shitty ratchet straps, which are known to fail in higher impact crashes
Are they?That sounds like someone missed the point of that fortnine video
They are rated to be safe by the relavent governing bodies
also depends entirely on the type of riding you do
If you’re buying a touring helmet, you aren’t going mach 1 around corners anyways
@cyan wind that’s a really nice lid tho
Don’t worry too much about getting the integrated comms
A normal comm doesn’t stick out that far anyways
Well, they are, you cant compare a ratchet thing which is made of plastic compared to two metal rings which is used in high end car and motorcycle racing and is stronger than the strap itself, plus I'd rather have the best chance. What if someone hits you, even if you arent going fast, and a lot of pressure goes through the head, i'd rather just have the best chance. modulars are just heavy anyway
I dont see how i can trust it when you can break it with bare hands
Its up to anyone what they get, but id rather have the best chance
hell yeah
hell yeah
its much easier than it looks
oh with the snow, Im sure it is
Ive seen dealer marking them up to nearly $80k 
this specific one is at a dealer auction, so it'll be a lot less
Hello Carrefour Angrignon
Because I drive there every week
ok daytoner this guy just stalked and found me
well get ready cause me and my friend recorded a video and were doing a drift tutorial xD
Lmao, i taught my ex how to drive there last winter
If you see a clapped out Fit, run
we basically just took turns drifting around each lot LMAO
WTF no what is the coincidence
Bro, half the Uber eats drivers on this stupid island drive clapped out fits
you have a massive hub where people bring all of quebs cars which is icar
but scattered around the entire island is just fits and toyota echo
apart from that car culture is very healthy around this part of the north
ok no wtf u just stalked me im scared im running 🚶♂️
Same spot 
is that fortnite 
SMH, Fortnite would be less expensive
it’s Fortnine, they sell motorsports gear
yeah, it's near enough what i have now but ece 22.06 and not modular
yeah im probs just gonna get a cardo freecom or spirit, or just some plugfones and hope they stay in lmao
Renders but they're dope anyways, mid 90's tuner mag kinda style
if i have a bit more money to spare, i might get shoei's GT air or NXR 2
@fossil gulch new gear day, shark d-skwal 3 and a richa phantom 3 jacket
noice you did go for the Shark
i honestly didn't expect it, but dude we were talking with said it was probably the best
had a great fit, was decently cheap too
£200 for the helmet, pinlock and a darker visor
i can also fit my earphones in without a massive issue, so i'm very happy with that
great deal you got
yeah straight up, dude was super knowledgeable and helpful
Ngl, I had to google what the shark was because we don’t have that brand in North America
But it looks pretty decent
