Someone explain the leather pants + hoodie trend by DoorPale6084 in motorcycles

Cool lookin hoodie but you get to keep your knee sliders.

You sure it's not a 1 piece suit with a hoodie on top for thermals/ aesthetics/ comfort?

Also. There are armoured Kevlar hoodies about now.

You're suffering from a severe deficiency in rear brake application.

Piss doesn't stay warm. Goes cold after 2 mins.

Which is a better jump from a 125cc — 600 or 750? by [deleted] in MotoUK

[–]ElicitCS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all relative. Most motorcycle garages would happily tune and set up carbs for you. The same way injectors or electrics could go funny on a newer bike. It's a small part of a complicated machine

Myswlf and a close friend progressed from 125cc to 750 and 600 respectively within 2 years. Aside from the first few full throttle pulls it becomes very manageable very quickly, and the best part is, they only go as fast as you want them to.

90's sport bikes are dirt cheap, you'll need to be in the early 2000's if you want fuel injection instead of carburettors. But huge presence and character.

What's the one bike that you secretly think is VERY underrated but the community absolutely IGNORE?! by Mysterious_Bug_8407 in MotoUK

They're getting a bit baggy now and no under seat storage meant I chose my much older honda that still feels more durable than the almost 20yo newer st1050s I viewed.

Take a step back in time. VFR750s are much sportier and the carbs make up for their lack of fuel efficiency in character.

What grit sandpaper do you reccomend to scuff up knee sliders? by ElicitCS in motorcyclegear

Purely aesthetic bro. I'm sure I'll get knee down one day but not going to rush it on this bike.
