I don't understand people who don't wear gear. Are you saying you don't want to look like a power ranger?
for me, it’s the all black aesthetic
>gets run over by a soccer mom
Built for Big Black wienerrocket
I don’t know how to do it without looking a LARPing tard, for now i am just lifting to get big enough for anyone to be too intimidated to actually tell me that i am cringe
From the age of 20-27 I only used motorcycles to get around everywhere
Dentist ,grocery, work ,ect
Gear is uncomfortable for every day use
I got down to the bare essentials and even that was too much
Gloves, boots , helmets just to get groceries
On longer trips I used my motorcycle jacket and especially during the winter
It’s fine when riding but once you get to your destination.
It's really not, I commuted via motorcycle to and from college. Just stuff all your shit in your helmet or bag, carry that, and leave your jacket on your bike if you don't want to carry it. It's only an issue if you need to buy/move large quantities of stuff. I found it inconvenient when I was staying over at my ex's place for example, but it's really not that bad.
>I don't understand people who don't wear gear.
Because it ain't cool and Im being honest here...speaking for most of people....
Carhomosexuals are fricking idiots but do yourself a favor and specially the Moto bros , drive slower , frick him if he beeping like maniac , let is slide , just let it slide don't confront , specially if she's listening loudly and sing in her luxury car , you know its not worth it , learn to breather lmao , but seriously....
>look cool on your bike
>look like a flaming homosexual anywhere else
Yes but if you need (i just need it ok?!) a sportsbike you have a small pen0r.
Most of the rides are less than 40mins. Just to change into the gear and back takes 15mins. And its hot as frick in it. And expensive.
You're siting and not doing anything. Does that sound fit to you?
riding burns a lot of calories

wtf i love motorcycling now
Yeah lifting my KLR650 after I dump it in the sand 20 times certainly wears me out.
>You're siting and not doing anything.
Skill issue
pic unrelated
You don't know how, do you..
Riding requires some fitness. I went from left to right due to chronic illness. Never was able to ride anything bigger than 250cc - now even that's too physically demanding.
This and 08 fireblade
Yes. High risk activities increase test.
t. Ninja 400 rider
>Ninja 400
Me too, it's my first bike. I've had it for about 5 years now. I'm looking for a Daytona 675R, but they're rare in my area.
How often do you ride it down here in Florida? I've thought about getting one but it rains too fricking often in Jacksonville that it's hard to justify it.
I ride it almost everyday. To work, to class, to see friends, etc. If I'm heading to the gym or the grocery store, I take my car instead.
It rains a lot here in Miami too, but I just check the weather report everyday to plan around it. Still, I've been caught out in the rain a few times and it absolutely sucks.
Another FL rider here
Rains not that big of a deal, normally it comes around in the afternoon while I’m working but if I get caught in it I just get wet.
>making your personality that you ride a bike
You even type like a massive homosexual. Seriously try to develop a real personality pipsqueak. You are so fricking corny I cant imagine how much torture your wife has to put up with (since no single girl would spend more than 5 minutes with you)
Uh oh, looks like someone got mogged by a bikechad
Rain gear exists, but it's a pain in the ass. What you really have to watch out for is the shit drivers. Gets worse when it's raining.
Nice to see a bunch of florida bros in the thread.
Yessir
t. MT07 and R3 sitting in my garage as we speak
>are motorcycles IST?
yes
>R3
Its like girl frauding on the instagram imo
would
t. no cash for a decent one drive on mopeds
>You're saying an R3 is frauding yet you drive mopeds?
$100 says you're brown
Give the hundred Im short on cash...
>Brown
>begging for money
Every time
Butt Hurt because I don't like hes fricking boy toy... cmon man , you got cash buy better not that fricking shit that I don't even know why it was released , and No I don't want a review , if you enjoy it Im happy for you.
But honestly and putting the jalapeño aside , why you bought it ? It didn't catch at my local market and I saw probably like 3 bikes over the last years , MT is a beast tho , one of the best sellers...first bike into the heavy machinery ?
OC?
IST gym muscle god mode unlocked
If you enjoy living don't get a motorcycle.
it definitely is riskier. i would probably never drive in burgerstan. in my country the roads are top tier and getting your (car) license takes a while. also i always wear all my gear. yeah it’s still dangerous but you can minimize risks.
In America 140k people died in alcohol related incidents. I would rather die in a motorcycle accident than a drunken stupor
Most of the motorcycle related incidents the motorcyclist isn’t at fault so you might still die in a drunken stupor but just not your own
Actually, most motorcycle accidents are single vehicle accidents and speed was a contributing factor.
Wrong.
well there's a false dichotomy
Ride sober practice how to corner and react to emergencies wear a real full face helmet and not some half helmet DOT approved bullshit wear gear and don't do suicidal shit like lanesplit at 100MPH faster than traffic and the risk is much lower albeit much higher than driving a car
Riding sober isn't going to stop grandma from plowing into you and ruining all your potential at the gym lol.
It stops you from killing yourself target fixating into truck kun
Getting leftturned is a skill issue
If you look at statistics for people who wear gear and don't ride like they're fleeing the scene of a chromosome robbery, the statistics are much closer to car accident statistics. Way less scary.
Yeah this isn't accounting for the high number of fat drunk boomers who wear zero safety gear, or improper gear. They are also probably not actually trained, assuming they even have a license, and their bikes are incapable of any actual maneuvering.
>yes, makes them pussy wet af
The amount of women doing weird horny shit in my direction when I'm on my motorcycle is astounding. I just don't know what they expect me to do from there, do they want me to stop traffic and get their number?
gotta die of something homosexual
dont lift too hard you might hurt yourself, don't go outside you might get hit by a car, dont do too much cardio you might have a heart attack
imagine riding in muttland just to be killed by a wild negress shaniqua or obese mexican driving a shitty cheap car.
or worse a moron boomer in his massive new truck
People don’t take into account that statistics are completely irrelevant to individual.
I bet you 80% of those accidents have a driver (usually shitskin) with no license. Doing 90 in a 45 when they don’t know how to counter steer or lean. Hell just go on YouTube and type motorcycle accident and you’ll see virtually every accident is on account of a moron who can’t handle his bike
>b-b-b-b-b-but it's ackshually PROBABLY VERY LIKELY because of xyz
kek
Sports bikes are gay. Not surprised you homosexuals like them.
Cruisers are for real Chads.

Had a /fir/ friend who is now moronic due to a motorcycle crash. Ironically, he crashed into a gym.
/fit/*
Had one in college. Fun and hoes love them but too likley to be mowed down by some goblina scrolling through TikTok
>trusting your life in the hands of others
I never understood why this was seen as masculine. You're basically just begging everyone on the road to not hit you. You have no agency in your life if you ride a motorcycle.
Considering what being "fit" boils down to is the ability to survive and reproduce and considering bikecucks can literally be wiped off the earth by

I don't think so
are they ok?
one died of eternal bleeding
If he couldn't avoid that he's literally going too fast. Not excusing the carhomosexual that didn't wear his glasses.
I had a motorcycle and loved it.
Now I live in a mega city and have a bicycle instead.
I like the bicycle more.
Its more nimble than even the lightest motorcycle, and allows me to dodge through traffic and hop curbs that a motorcycle could never get over.
I have no license or registration, which makes me immune to traffic rules. I go wherever the frick I want. I even managed to escape the police once on it.
When you own a car or motorcycle, there is a constantly low grade fear of where it's parked or whether it can be parked, whether you need to feed a meter, whether the police can trace you from the car, whether you will get a ticket, whether you can leave the car overnight, whether you can get back to the car from where you're going. Its a huge ball and chain that the state uses to frick you in all kinds of ways.
A motorcycle is better than a car because you can just ride it illegally, but a bicycle is even better.
bump
based bike chad
I've got a decent road bike I've been riding since 2006 it's basically an extension of my body at this point
so fricking nimble
this but with an ebike
I don't really get ebikes. You can't really go faster than a regular bike because they're programmed to engine brake at 20mph, and two I used were ungainly and had shit steering.
I don't see the point in pedalling at 200 watts when I can produce 750 watts at will with my wrist.
It seems like what the market really wants are light, unregulated electric motorcycles, but the tax breaks and legal bullshit require one put pedals on it.
Just mod a moped, pigs will never know/check. Bought one off fbmktplace from some illegal beaner, shit topped out at 65-70 only “49cc”
Motorcycles are loud and typically driven by homosexuals, so yeah it is IST. Loud and gay and causes an early death
Guys who have really loud motorcycles are really really cool and masculine and not brown or low IQ at all.
>are motorcycles IST?
yes
>girls?
yes, makes them pussy wet af
>crashes
yes, you WILL be injured eventually
>worth?
up to you
>makes them pussy wet af
why is that and how serious are you?
It’s the young bad boy vibe. b***hes love it. 1000%, every guy I know who rides one, even if he’s a bit ugly, gets b***hes
They like the idea, but a lot of the time riding is actually too intense for them. Same vibe as a horse or mildly abusive man, they seem fun until you get kicked in the head.
Just don't get hit? moron.
>just don't get hit
Oh gee I'm sure all the motorcyclists that get hit just want to be lmfao
Motorized meams of transport are for the lazy and degenerate. Not IST.
Motorcycles are made for manlets; they're too fricking small. Especially cruisers holy shit wtf why is the seat height like 20" off the ground?
i'm a 5 foot 10 king of manlets and cruisers are too fricking small even for me

You don't see fat people on sports bikes very often, so yes.

Reminder you can't outlift your survival reactions
only if you do track days and club racing. if it's for riding to starbucks then have a nice day
A good friend of mine was recently killed when a moron in a truck merged into him while he was riding his Ducati. Stay safe out there fellas.
na. it's all about power to weight. and IST idealises being fat.
Motorcycles are awesome.
Had tons of bikes.
Huge component of safety is to ride like you are invisible, and always have a place to go.
If everyone around you were to not see you, and continue doing exactly what they were doing, are you in a spot where youd be hit, or would you be ok?
Always positon yourself in a spot where you would live, as best you can.
Always leave yourself an out. Whether its the side of the road or what, if someone needs to occupy the space you are in you better be aware of them coming and able to move out of the way faster than they get there.
This mindset is good to have. You should always know where exits to buildings you are in are, as well as be aware of what risks you are exposing yourself to by how you position yourself in the world, both likely and very unlikely to happen contingencies are always good to have. I hate hate hate being in the center of a crowd.
If you can kinda think how the article about your death would be written, get out of there.
>Motorcycles are awesome.
>Have to ride like someone's constantly out to get you
Doesn't it get tiring at some point ?
If responsibility is tiring, motos are not for you.
When it becomes unconcious is when you level up.
I guess to explain a little more...
For years and years i was into riding bicycle bikes. You are a lot more vulnerable because of the speed difference, and the high liklihood any driver angry at cyclists will try and use you to pay for other people's transgressions.
Im not saying its a foolproof way to do things, but the ride like youre invisible thing is a how you ride bicycles on roads without dying thing that extrapolates to motos really well.
It just becomes part of the game. Like a hocmey player who moves so they dont get smeared into the boards.
At some point you just get into an accident and then you make a decision or life makes a decision for you.
Have a bunch of friends that used to ride bikes in the past. After 3 of our friends died in dumb ways and a few others got severe injuries over the years because of someone else's mistakes, the rest just kinda decided that driving a glorified bicycle is not worth dying or getting a hip replacement for.
I though bikers are huge gaylords but then I realized cargays are as bad and even walkingtards are insufferable. They're all equal.
The only category that I despise MORE than the others is bicycle troglodytes.
Yes. But Only nakeds, sports bikes are for non-whites and women.
i ride a clapped out drz400 with a bent subframe, 90% off road knobbies, an fcr39 and a 440cc big bore kit. i dont know or care how to fix my rear brake
witness me
Bikes are for effeminate homosexuals that throw tantrums and get pissy whenever someone doesn't suck their wiener just because they ride a bike.
Just look at any thread on IST. Bikegays are basically women.
honestly I stop talking to men when they say they want to ride but it's "too dangerous"
>heh i totally would but you know how everyone drives around here
No actually I don't know what you're wimpering about
you sound bisexual
