You may be a community member but you are not one of said community members that enforces the written letter of the law. Know your role and stay in your lane Karen.

Also theres nothing wrong with guns or bikes, go move to Europe instead of mudding up America with a delusional post-modern (and naive) fantasy.

Your types love to strip away all agency from the indivdual because they can't fathom a bond of trust or personal responsibility.

Speeding is like farting, there's appropriate and inappropriate times to do it but it's a natrual human function to do it.

Omegakek
You do know you are only allowed to do that when a crime is actually committed right. You can't grab someone because you alleged they went on a sidewalk due to them riding a bike you don't personally like.

Besides, if you tried to grab me then that's clearly an attempted robbery and given I fear for my life because a random crazy stranger tried grabbing me I just HAD to raise1 on the suspected burglar. It's unfortunate he didn't pull through to give his testimony, well at least the judge ruled in my favor of self defense from a crazed indivdual attempting to steal my super sport motorcycle!

>>28859932
I'm not here to give you a basic science lecture, how about you do your own research and learn for yourself? Plenty of reading material on hearing / hearing damage. You may not be 100% deaf but you absolutely don't hear as well as you used to.

>>28859936

Are all supersport riders this delusional? I'm going to citizen arrest you and if you resist I'll scream "RAPE".

>>28859940
As wholesome as that is anon, you should still learn about the effects of hearing damage/loss instead of being ignorant about it. Earing aids unironically do wonders for people who have extreme cases of it (not saying you have extreme hearing loss, but in general)

>>28859942
At my age losing part of my hearing is the least of my worries. I'm more worried about being sucked under a truck or erectile disfunction.

>>28859941
The only delusional one here is you thinking you can grab strangers without a badge or warrant just because they ride something you personally don't like.

I think you've never been hurt in an altercation before, and that's why you feel so entitled to be an enforcer for free.
Dw your karma is coming though, you'll play with The One and get G-checked.

>>28859945
You can walk and chew bubblegum at the same time, there's no point to being ignorant to another aspect of your existence. Respectfully.

If you want to SPEED on your supersport then take it to a race track buddy. The public roads are no place for supersport weapons.

why do people love putting stickers on their dual sport so much like what's the point. I just boughted a dual sport first thing I did was removing all the stickers

>>28859948
As a teen I was a crew member of a Top Fuel drag team and stood about 3 metres away from the car when it took off. The sound was so loud that my ears would ring for about fifteen minutes after every run. I didn't wear ear plugs.
In my 20s I worked in a Forge where ear plugs were mandated but I never wore them.
Today I still have perfect hearing.

>>28859951
I can't speak for duel sports but in the scooter world it's common to use stickers to hide any scratches.

>>28859890

I was tested every six month when I worked in the Forge with no discernible results. I can still hear clearly today and don't need to take a test to decide if I can hear things.

But hey if you wanna wear ear plugs then go fo it. There's no shame in being gay in 2026.

You didn't take no test. Quit frontin'

Being too lean for too long will mess things up. Running out of gas will make you walk to a gas station.

Ninjer 500R is up and running after a month of wrenching and waiting for parts. First bike. Very fun and easy to ride as someone whose only motorcycle experience is riding a bicycle and taking the MSF course. I thought it would be a lot scarier than it actually is but it's very manageable. Then again, I didn't go on the highway and I didn't go more than 60.

Hmm, yes. I was in fifth gear wide open going up hill, and my bike started acting similar to when I ran out of gas once. It was bucking a little, and it died right as I was able to pull it into a parking lot. It felt a little low on power on that last pull, but I thought I was just out of the power band. After I tilted my bike over to get the gas over to the petcock side, I tried to kick it over; but the kickstarter wouldn't budge. I'll have to perform an autopsy to see what really happened, but in the meantime, just brainstorming.

It was so subtle at first, I wasn't even sure if it was real or imagined. My clutch was in as soon as I cleared traffic. If it locked up my rear, I would have been fugged big time with that particular spot I was at.

getting my license soon. 191cm / 6'3" & 125kg / 275lbs.

What kind of used bike should I get? Here in Germany there seems to be a hard floor at around 4000€ where most 10y+ old bikes settle eventually while you can also get an almost new XSR900 for 8000€, makes no sense whatsoever so I'm leaning towards newer models.

Yes I know something like the XSR900 is most likely too powerful to me but I can ride it in mode 4 (rain mode) for a while and still be safe.

redpill me on Honda Grom

>>28860745
you have to decide what type of bike first
scoot? touring? sport? ADV? MX?
but most would agreed that 300-600cc is a good starting point
but there is nothing wrong with low cc bikes (unless you plan to do long touring trip with it and actually want to ride super fast)
XSR125 is also good fun if you ask me, might be the best first bike even cause you dont even bike loicense for it
but personally Id just grab XADV

>>28860759
I haven't fully decided yet what kind of bike I want. A Versys 650 would probably be the smartest decision (already sat on it and it felt great). I won't use it to commute, it will be a weekends-only ride. I like how retro naked bikes look but I'm not sure if I'm falling prey to marketing there. So yeah it's mostly between (retro)naked and ADV right now

>>28860751
Gorilla, but ugly

>>28860764
There isn’t much bad one can say about a versys 650, unless you’ve got a vendetta against 180 degree parallel twins.
Good machines.

I am soon to obtain my A2 licence. When I started with it I decided to buy Honda NX500 but as the time approaches I am starting to want A2 limited Transalp more and more. 85% of usage will be city driving so I believe NX500 is just fine for me but still Transalp seems like a more future proof bike and after I get full A I will be able to remove the limiter. What do you think?

what about retro adv? himmy old (if you don't mind it being air cooled and low power, you can probably get them very cheap) or new (still cheap and reasonably powered, still has a nice neo-retro look)

>>28860860
Basically impossible, might as well give up

so one of the kawakazi dealer near me went under (well more of the show room stop being partner iwth kawazaki and switch to other brand)
still have a 400 ninja in the inventory
it just park there with 0 miles, I ask the guy how much is it and they said
$5100
is that good deal? or am I better off just buying brand new 2026 instead?
its the black green color

>>28860640
Touring Harley’s have a very large upper fairing, in two styles, called “the bat wing fairing” and “the shark nose fairing”
They also have lower fairings at the legs

>>28860899
Is that usd?
Idk most used bikes floor at or around that pricepoint anyway, you could probably swindle and skip the stealership fees and offload it to a nobike and make a profit though, if you keep er mint condition or add some TASTEFUL MODS you found at a scrapyard or someone elses crashsite
Just sayin, but it might not be worth the investment
On the other hand you can prob buy it, mile it out to 5k or so, upgrade, sell it for around what you paid for next year or something
But if i had that many AMERICA wulongs, id probably just get a used hardley davidson, but as a firstbike idk that might be the one you need
I cant remember, is it a ptwin or the single cylinder?
If its pisstwin thats probably good to go, if singleton id rather have a different brand dual sport, like a wr250r is the best unicorn you could ask for other than they DISCONTINUED them
Idk if used prices for one are alongside comparable market, but if you did have access to one, and i was in your shoes, knowing what i know and enjoying all that i do, id get that bike or something within the realm of offroad capable like a xr650r or drz400

>>28860932
it is in 160k rupies from 200k original price so 160k is about 5100 usd from 6400
2021 ninja 400cc with 0 miles
a brand new 2026 one probably goes around equivalent of $6700-6900 here
I mean I dont really like kawazaki so this is all FOMO

I’d like a 2 stroke again, but my 250’s I couldn’t ever really open up, plus I wanna just putt around and trail ride.
On a side note, if these captchas get any gayer I’m gonna have to delete the 4channel app.

It's very comfortable and fun! it has a stronger "umph" than the suzuki 350 but at a similar range it felt very natural coming from it, the low revs are a bit underwhelming but i'm taking it to do the ECU map recall that apparently give is a bit more power on lows, people say it's a noticeable difference and it's how it's supposed to run.
i really want to take it on some basic offroad but i must admit i'm worried to drop it.
Ideally i'd find another beta, the alp or a cheap crf300l but one is impossible to get outside of italy and the other is brand new and harder to find for cheap.

Singles are fun! and the lc4 is solid, probably not as solid as the dr350 but still

Heart’s been set on a DRZ for some time now. After riding one at socal supermoto I really really like the idea of a lightweight bike that takes the tighter corners faster with a whollotta torg at the wrist.
Top speeds aren’t that fun and take a lot of the excitement out of cornering for me.
Also being able to swap rims and ride dirt is super appealing too
