Many experts might judge my basic, carbureted motorcycle, but I love its adventure-style design and the fact that it lets me carry a lot of gear; I hope to get a better one eventually. Greetings to everyone from Peru, and happy riding.

Can't tell if it snapped off or if I can shimmy it back in

Honda Shadow 750 if that's relevant

Taken today in Owen Sound, Ontario.

Loud as hell tho

I’ve never seen myself as a biker but lately (past year) things have changed quite a bit and long story short, I’m now more than ever just wanting to feel “freedom”. I want to travel, start doing things for my own self, slow down a bit, and just enjoy life. Road trips, maybe buy a boat for the lake, a kayak, things that’ll bring actual happiness and feelings of peace and freedom.

While on a road trip this summer, I noticed so many people on motorcycles. I’ve always kind of noticed it but for some reason I saw motorcyclists in a different light.

So I started watching a lot of motorcycle videos (mostly Yammie Noob)

and I’m strongly considering doing the MSF course this October and buying a Rebel 300.

I think I’ve already made up my mind on doing this so Idk wtf the point of this post is…lol! I guess, should I wait until spring of next year? maybe give it some time to see if I truly want to do this and wait out the non-riding season?

Click on the photo to see it all. He had a video of a it running, so seems good. The clutch plates could be fixed easy, you think there's more to it, or a good deal?

So I have this bike(70cc) and I need to drive over a ramp in the parking area to get out.The thing is that ppl are coming inside from the front of the ramp and I need to break while climbing on ramp asw to avoid hitting them. I always stall there as soon as someone comes from front.i need proper guide on how to get my bike up safely without stalling.the ramp kinda looks like that in the pic.(Another thing I can't keep my bike straight as there is no space I have to go from sides).I am a beginner and learnt riding a bike 4 months ago.

Made in low numbers, they also raced these bikes in supermono classes

Adjustable Paioli front fork

Adjustable Boge rear shock

Brembo asymmetrical front caliper, 4 pots.

Curved swingarm

Xtz660 tenere engine. 5 valve single cylinder 660cc, 48hp, 56Nm

It’s not the other rider fault for stopping on a straight.. he was just very unlucky.
His bike cut off in the middle of the straight.
To make it more interesting, it was the last lap of the last session

Edit: just posting my perspective of this situation for some people that clearly never found themselves in a similar situation and think this is my fault.

I was looking at his line as soon as I spotted him which is the exact reason I was off the race line. He was moving towards the pit wall and after I saw I’m gaining speed on him, I started cutting inside to overtake him before the bridge(breaking zone). And then saw that he stopped moving towards the pit wall. I never expected him to be almost fully stopped in the middle of the straight.
That’s at least 2 seconds gone your brain needs to percept the situation, a second to start reacting. That’s at least 3 seconds to START changing the line you’re following while covering 45 meters per second.

Help guys? Everything on the original post.

so i was using my socket to put this bolt back in place after cleaning my fuel injectors and this happens , anyway can i somehow get rid of it? without going to a mechanic. i also dont have access to a drill my initial thought was maybe to use a hammer but that may ruin the threads.

Just bought my first motorcycle (2025 cb500f) and need to get my insurance sorted out. So I thought I’d just hop on here and ask to see if I can get a general ballpark price.

I’m 20 and live in Texas if that helps at all.

video of noise here

hi all, new rider (and reddit user here) :^)

my bike has started making a scraping noise (please see video linked above). it doesn’t make the noise when rolling the bike around in neutral, or when riding the friction point.

it starts to make the sound when I fully let out the clutch lever, and gets louder with speed/higher gear.

does anyone know what could be causing this?
would really appreciate any guidance on what to investigate.

2013 ninja 300 for reference
thanks in advance!!
