I always say "why the ****/hell/heck would you tell me that?"
It's like they think we're oblivious to the danger that exists. Bringing negative omens our way. **** pisses me off.

i've noticed that any time i talk to anyone about motorcycles who doesn't ride a motorcycle, without fail, i can expect pretty much one of three responses:
1. know someone who got in/or died in an accident on a motorcycle
2. they always wanted to ride a motorcycle but were too scared
3. they used to ride a motorcycle
generally, most people mean well so i never really trip, they're just relating their experience(s)...but every once in a while you get someone telling you how stupid it is to ride & that's a dead end convo...

Bros, any tips on riding a carb'd motorcycle in the winter? I've tried looking online but all I can find are ways to winterize it and put it away. I live in the city and am contemplating riding all through the winter.

Definitely get 1 and 3 the most. Kinda annoying to have people look down on you for riding but eh

carb'd bikes in the cold weather/winter are tough, because it can be hella hard to start even with the choke set to flood fuel; but not sure what you'd need to do especially for a bike w/carbs? i think changing your antifreeze & motor oil to a more cold weather/winter appropriate (if they aren't already)

Just went through this whole thread and it seems everyone agrees on Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Honda or Ducati. I am completely foreign to the scene and hope to start up within these next couple of months, since everyone says that's the best time to purchase a bike. I've settled on wanting a 600cc bike, but besides these makes, are there any other reputable brands?
I'm not interested in getting a cruiser, more sport bike. And if these are the best Makes, what seperates each from the other. Like what does honda have over the other brands etc. I want to make an informed decision so getting me in the right direction would be helpful.
Don't really want to be racing either, just the best bike for Commute and possibly cross country trips (more so in the 500 mile range).
Thanks Fam!

well there's also the triumph daytona 675 & the new mv augusta f3 (if you got the ducats ($$$) that is), not much really separates these bikes they are all screaming fast, with relatively aggressive seating positions, & nimble handling...of course there are areas where a certain bike has the edge on the others but the best thing you can do is go talk to a local dealer, check out & sit on the different bikes you'll likely find all these bikes have different ergonomics & one bike may fit you better than others or at least know what adjustments you need to make to be more comfortable for you.
if you are primarily interested in commuting & longish trips, you may want to look at the naked versions of sportbikes, which are basically the same but have more upright riding positions/higherbars or maybe even tsport touring type bikes

f4i's maybe outdated and not the best looking, but they are the strongest built bikes and can take a beating
I love my f4i

Whyyyy didn't he mash TF outta that back brake???
I'm sure he's okay after that but after watching it a few times it looks like he could have planted that one

It's a double rear peg stand up. He had a Ttap but was off balance n it was pretty much a wrap. His sick innovations cage finally gave(it's been dropped nuff times) n he busted his stator cover.
Here's another view of the engine.

Damn that stator looks dry
But it looks small in comparison to what it could have been.
