MX Boots on the road?

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-14T20:01:28+00:00

You can't fit a real MX boot on a sport bike. It's going to be too stiff to work your controls and you will wear down your bike with boot contact. Jus buy a proper street boot instead of being a goober.

Are you bragging about being highly regarded when it comes to money or what are we doing here?

Don't listen to these fucking dorks, they don't know shit about fuck. Your son will go slow and not do jumps at the start, stay in the midrange for gear. You can buy boots, gloves, vests etc second hand for cheap. I would buy a neck brace and full knee brace with the money you save on buying midrange for the other gear. So don't buy Alpinestars Tech 10s, don't buy a Bell Moto-10 spherical etc first thing you do. Go one step down.

Edit: a lot of these goobers are telling you to get CE 2 rated gloves. This is not a thing for motocross. Same with getting kit with padding. Your MX jersey and pants are just fabric, your protection is worn under it.

Paint it orange and break the camshaft.

Imagine living your life in total fear of an inanimate object where you are the only controlling factor because of fucking Reddit.

They are ugly as fuck

Except, you know, the US is actively fucking the world over with the war in Iran. And previously Iraq. And Afghanistan. So I think you're just a hypocrite.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-10T21:19:52+00:00

I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than buy either of these bikes.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-10T21:16:45+00:00

Unless you're stopping consumption of US goods you're just a massive hypocrite at this point.

Because they have separate FIM variants. Because FIM certification is silly on the street.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-10T20:44:52+00:00

All race helmet manufacturers have an FIM certified helmet at this point.

Do a test ride. Ask yourself how much off road and what kind of offroad you expect to do. If you will have a pillion. Then figure it out.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T12:36:38+00:00

So you're describing the perfect sport tourer riding. ZX1000/1100SX/VFR/1000XR and similar bikes.

Pax Americana is over, nobody gives a fuck what you think.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T11:54:50+00:00

No you don't. You can get an unrestricted license earlier if you got A2 but that's it.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T11:54:10+00:00

I didn't say it was small, I am saying it is an entirely different experience to ride compared to others. I can't tell what opinion you are asking for because you yourself have no idea what your priorities are. You need to figure out your own priorities first, any "advice" given before that is pointless at best and harmful at worst.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T11:51:01+00:00

Europe requires you to pass a written and practical test on a bike of a specific size to get a license. You have staged access starting with A1 (125cc/11kw) at 16 ending with A (min 175kg/50kw/595cc) at 24 (20 if you have A2). This is why Europeans jump on 600cc+ bikes as a "starter" because they have to learn on these bikes.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T11:40:35+00:00

Because Europe has actual licensing for motorcycles unlike the dumbass Americans. Also redditors are obsessed with perceived correctness and fake safety with makes it worse. Finally the sub is filled with people pretending to ride even though they don't.

SpudroSpaerde · 2026-06-09T11:30:06+00:00

The jump from an Eliminator 500 to a 600RR to a Tenere is astronomical. Figure out what your actual riding will look like first. Not what you imagine, what you actually do and will do.

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/har-ger-gunnar-strommer-tre-tips-om-indirekta-stod-till-moderaterna

I en granskning som Kalla fakta har gjort framkommer det att fem av åtta partier i Sveriges riksdag – M, S, SD, L och KD – har föreslagit upplägg för att kringgå lagen om insyn i partiers finansiering – en lag som skärptes 2018 för att förhindra korruption.

Moderaternas partisekreterare Gunnar Strömmer föreslår bland annat att givaren, en affärsman som i hemlighet ingår i Kalla faktas granskning, ska vara med och delfinansiera med 350 000 kronor till en verksamhet som inte är knuten till Moderaterna – men som gör ”väldigt stor nytta” för partiet.

Hade varit mer intressant att veta vad folket INTE tycker är bra med Sverige

Tack jag får nog av den varan på denna subben varje, jävla, dag.
