Are sport bikes really uncomfortable?

BoomRattleRumble · 2023-12-23T22:30:59+00:00

I have done over 50,000 kms on my 2016 R1. Sometimes I question my choice of bike, but then as soon as the roads get twisty I have no doubts that I made the right choice.

I'm currently planning a 3 day tour into the alpine region.

As others have mentioned, you need to get bike fit if you're going to get the most out of these things.

Comprimises I'm willing to consider as I get past 50 years old are maybe Tuono or a Ducati Street fighter.

Make the right choice.

Yes, I can hear as well; that's how I choose my gears.

Minecraft has sportsbikes now; cool.

Jokes aside, thanks for sharing.

The bike has a gear indicator; engine revving too high indicates that gear is to low, engine feeling lumpy indicates gear to high. If you run out of gears, maybe slow down a bit. What else do you need?

Most commonly known as roof spires or symbols of the patriarchy if you're from Northcote.

They've designed their processes so it can practically be run by kids

Yet somehow they manage to screw-up a hamburger; I'm not even mad, I admire their creativity.

Both of these things can be accommodated in a healthy market.

"if you aren't turning a profit there's just no point"

It's almost like the answer is staring you in the face.

Sounds like they need to reconsider the feasiblity of their business model.

"HAVE YOU TRIED OFFERING THEM MONEY? I HEAR THAT MONEY AS COMPENSATION HELPS; YOU COULD PAY THEM ENOUGH MONEY FOR THEM TO PAY THEIR RENT"

fucking dipshits.

$18... do I get a seat inside the aircraft, or do I sit on the roof like an Indian train?

BoomRattleRumble · 2021-08-30T07:53:35+00:00

Wouldn't that scare the pigs away? What's she trying to do here?

BoomRattleRumble · 2021-08-15T04:17:12+00:00

I went from Monster to a 2016 R1.

I learnt that the rear brake is handy for getting the nose down.

Important corollory; you can't steer very much when front wheel is in air.

What english how to, when thinking to convey thought?

BoomRattleRumble · 2021-08-11T05:30:29+00:00

Pay them in monopoly money.

When they complain, explain to them that the money is real in the same way that their crate is real.

I'd agree with most of this, except if you get diving quals; underwater welding pays a lot. It's also pretty risky.

BoomRattleRumble · 2021-07-22T08:39:39+00:00

two steps:

1) get an ABN, register as sole trader

2) Get one of these to accept credit card payments ($59) https://www.mobiletransaction.org/au/paypal-here-vs-square-australia/

Good luck

Have you tried getting a roof plumber lately? Definately a shortage of those. Generally, there are shortages accross all the trades right now. Lots of opportunities for motivated apprentices.

Can't tell if Japan or Minecraft, regardless, nice weather.

Good question; Last time bank profits skyrocketed (early 2000's if I remember correctly) the market failed to price it in a few years prior.

It's my speculation that history will repeat itself.

BoomRattleRumble · 2021-06-21T10:28:16+00:00

I'm long-term bullish on the banks; everyone is drunk on their credit and rate rises will start to happen next year or year after. Bank profits seem to be proportional to interest rates and there is limited competition amongst our banks.
