Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

one of the things i like the most about both the ninja and cbr designations are just how iconic those names have become, each being introduced in the early/mid 1980s and still being used today

 

I wish I had skills like that. But no. It’s hard. Gotta have the milk texture juuuuuuussssst right. That’s not something I’m consistent enough with

 

remember when Ninjas were green?

 

Don't forget the gixxer - OG king of sportbikes !

 

we both posted a 7XXcc bike!

 

Yes! Always heard great things about the 750 - a nice balance between the 600 and 1000. Never ridden one though.

 

my local pizza place owner has a mid 90s zx7r that he has had for decades now, has been riding it to work for decades as well, will snap a picture one of these days

 

I know y'all aren't forgetting about the FZR1000 5 valve genesis.


Edit: I got caught up in nostalgia. That bike isn't around anymore like the CBR, Ninja, and GSX-R previously mentioned.

 

They all paved the way for modern day beauties !

 

I have never heard of those.

But Honda are

 

Nice line up in that pic !

 

You have stock exhaust right? Won’t be obnoxious or anything. Once you get used to engine braking when you ride fast it becomes second nature when you ride slow. Best part about ride the grom is how many up shifts and downshifts I have to do wherever I go. I engine brake all the time when I ride, makes it so much more enjoyable for me.

 

when I would ride my z125.. screw engine braking.. Just stomp on the rear brake pedal and lock up that rear tire! Especially in traffic. Its hilarious!

 

Eddie Kelley is running his in the heritage race at Road America this upcoming race.


The guy I bought my CBR F2 off of sold me the bike so he could buy an '89 FZR in the trim I previously posted. Was a beauty and it was geared to rip in the low end. Sounded beautimous also.

There is a red FZR in the line up pic you posted also.

 

i get it, after all ive been riding and driving standard transmissions since day 1 and have crashed plenty to figure shit out the fun way, for some reason this other clown decided to run with his own interpretation of what I said and failed to chime back in with a cohesive reply correcting me...

 

I just got my wife a $20 single serve coffee maker.

 

I ain’t got the time or money to replace the tires that are flat spotted. I have fun doing stoppies though.

 

not every single time.. but its still fun. Mine werent flat when I did it a few times. And normal tires are $40 each!

 

I don't know...kinda losing interest...I've been thinking about selling.

 

Forty bucks... I mean...
