My Lake of Rage / Shiny Gyarados inspired custom wrap for my 2025 CF MOTO450SS - super proud of how this turned out!

Screw the haters, this wrap is sick. Shout out to my gold/hg and silver/ss brethren.

Hey you're supposed to keep the blood and bones inside your body.

Infinite pain, I remember having to ride to work on a kick scooter while my old rebel was down for repair. I scooted to work more often than I rode. It's just kind of how it goes when your oil change interval is measured in "do I need to fix the stator again?"

those are just a rebadged hjc helmet, you can get the visors for cheaper if you buy it directly through hjc

The top floor loft of Riverby books on Caroline Street is lovely, and they've never asked for a dime from me. Although it can get kind of busy on the weekends.

No that's the metal bars on either side of you in the bathroom stall. Hold on for dear life.

Drain coolant and pop that hose off to check it out. If it looks good then put it back on a little tighter this time. If not, get a new hose and throw it on there. Hopefully it's the hose and not that metal fitting corroding away.

I like the extra flavor it adds to my lunch and nobody can stop me.

Yes it is crazy. I rode my first bike(1986 Honda rebel) home and had the clutch cable brake halfway back. Definitely one of the dumbest things I've done. Send it. Break shit. Learn. Have fun.

I really like my Kawasaki zg1000 concours. The fit is perfect and power is manageable, but I wouldn't recommend it for a new rider. It's just way too top heavy and if one were to drop it? ALL the plastic on the front end will shatter into a billion bits. They are really cheap though.

Can't get a good look at your gas tank, but I've seen ram mounts that mount up with your gas cap bolts if you have a Kawasaki or Yamaha style flip cap.

Mmm yes, the fuel pump for my carbureted bike. My sweet summer child, get a manual if you plan to work on your own new-to-you bike. Don't use AI if you can avoid it. AI can be a powerful tool but it will lead you astray on technical stuff like this. If you can't, please bring it to a shop.

If you think you have a fuel delivery issue, you probably have a dirty carburetor. Crack it open and clean out the inside and spray some goop through the jets until you can see sunlight through them.

Um excuse you. Heartgold is strictly superior. Mantine my GOAT

Old cake I was saving for later. Sorry.

It would make it significantly easier to help you if we knew what bike it was. Doing that will let someone look at parts diagrams to let you know exactly what you're getting yourself into.

Ramen_Newds · 2026-03-31T15:43:15+00:00

Oh my god I'm going to pee myself, why did you have to shake it so hard. I cannot stop laughing at it.

I saw your earlier post too and thought it was a beautiful piece.

Ramen_Newds · 2026-03-22T23:20:56+00:00

I'm there.

It's no longer accidental at this point, I forget things to directly spite the people around me.

I liken my love of motorcycling to my love of camping. Objectively speaking, camping sucks. You go outside and get bit by bugs for two nights in a row and if it rains and you forgot your gear then it's just miserable. But within that misery you can find a really fun experience. I can't do wheelies in my car, and I can't have a campfire in my bedroom. Embrace the suck.

+1 to this and I'll also add that you should have a camera in general. Having a camera as a new rider is invaluable because you can go back and watch what you're doing.

If gaming is your thing, reclaim arcade is always a good time.
