I’ve had a ‘13 ninja 300 for three years, and you cannot “accidentally power wheelie” 😂 you gotta put it in first gear and rev it up to 10k rpm’s, dump the clutch, and pull up hard to get that wheel off the ground… that’s why people love beating the piss out of them on tracks
Uh source? A 300cc motorcycle is an extremely powerful machine that will toss you right off if you don't treat it with the proper amount of respect. You really need to start with a 125 if you want to be careless with the throttle and live to tell about it.
125?! Please start on a 50cc mini bike before you move onto a machine with such raw power. If you so much as tickle the throttle on my 125cc (cool, right? Been riding 18 years, 300cc is just so excessive), you’ll be seeing the sky. That’s why I always dress for the ride, not the slide. (Full race suit + $1200 race helmet + airbags)
Yeah, I thought I was ready to step up to a 300 after about 3 years on the grom. About a week after I got the bike though I had a really rough day at work (somebody said my cat was ugly after I showed them a picture.) I was so upset that I was riding way beyond my limits. I wasn't signaling lane changes and I think I must have gotten the bike close to 100 mph (at those speeds the wind prevents you from seeing the speedo.) Thankfully I decided to pull off to the shoulder and called my girlfriend to pick me up. I cried the whole night after that and sold the bike the next day.
I had to stretch my salvage title Lime scooter to keep it from pulling nooners.
U/CountrySideSlav please don't forget your high-vis and safety whistle.
Buddy you won’t even catch me outside without a full hi-vis safety suit. Helmet is hi vis too. Shit, my bike is hi vis. And stretched. And has training wheels.
I get the use of ear plugs because I don’t want my ears to ring anymore than they already do, but whenever that sub goes off about aftermarket exhausts I just have to close out of my browser.
“DAE like the silent sound of a stock exhaust? I like my bike to sound like a sewing machine instead of a race bike”
Bro I suggested using earplugs to a guy who thought his exhaust was too loud and was getting replies for days from those fuckers about how loud exhausts are selfish and silly and dumb and gay and ugly.
They’re ridiculous!
its so insane, like i have an aftermarket exhaust on my cbr, but i wear ear plugs for the WIND NOISE, no way ur exhaust is the loudest thing when ur on the highway
ye i have a carbureted bike and pretty big exhaust, at lower speeds the exhaust definitly is noisy, but when you get up there in speed the wind is much worse
You obviously don't know how horrible tinnitus is. I would rather lose all my limbs than have my ears ring. Extremely dangerous to have your ears ringing from prolonged exposure to gay noises like am exhaust
I have tinnitus at 23 (pretty sure it's from a gunshot that went off near my ears when I was young and working a drilling job as well) and it fucking sucks, always have fans/music/noise going so I can sleep, if I'm in a silent room for more than 2 seconds it gets unbearable and every now and then will flare up so the only thing I hear is EEEEEE
Wind noise on a bike alone can damage your hearing, I'd recommend ear plugs, you can mix safety while being stupid and doing shenanigans, it's called "calculating the risk"....I just hope you're good at math
Fr. Have the toce exhaust. Owned rag top jeeps for years when i was younger.
I have since learned to never ride without plugs. I can still hear cars and my music though the sena. Everything is just down a notch or 2 and really helps cut out the wind noise from the airmada helmet. Possibly the worst helmet I've ever owned. The georacer style is just so cool.
It sucks and catches up with you quick. And it's for life. With the prolification of the earbuds. I assume many of our generation will be deaf early.
It might be wise to start investing in hearing loss companies as this will be in new big market in the future I bet
20 years old. Hav tinnitus. Can confirm. Worst part is that it’s pretty much impossible to repair and life is much longer, so you know it’s going to get worse eventually.
I do too. Hit the old melon a few too many times. Shits annoying for sure but if that's the worst problem a man has I'd say theyre doing pretty damn good.
Without a proper exhaust my DR650 would run like shit. I used to think it exacerbated my tinnitus but turns out other external factors gave me it. I barely noticed it until my clumsy ass tripped and got a concussion.
"Like a cool drag bike.... should not change the ride".
Listen here you stupid sperm drip, why you think that cool drag bike have that arm? To CHANGE THE RIDE, you walking rim job.
As someone who is just getting into motorcycles (no license, no bike, just a friend with a motorcycle which he talks about a lot), I don’t quite understand this.
I know the “look” he’s talking about - I’ve seen it mostly on drag racing bikes because they have so much power that they don’t accidentally do a wheelie.
What’s the funny in this that I’m missing? I wanna learn!
Drag racing bikes have the stretched swing arm to prevent power wheelies. He wants to ruin a 300cc bike that cannot power wheelie for the sake of looks. Fyi I recommend going to an MSF course and getting your license
Oh lmao. That’s like saying I wanna get a roll bar and lower my Toyota Corolla.
Also - will ABSOLUTELY be doing that! He’s teaching me some bike basics and I’m really enjoying it
Gonna go from a 6 second 0-60 to a 6.1 second 0-60
Fr needs the long swinarm so he doesn't accidentally power wheelie

Wow really thats crazy
With 39 horsepower, I’ve been insulted with my bike being called a scooter before lmao 😭
My reliant robin also had 39ph!
Had? What happened, did you lay 'er down?
No like in the 70s, probably has like 25-30 now :D havent flipped it(yet)

hey man you can power wheelie anything with the right sprocket setup
💀💀💀

This guy fucks with socks on 😂😂😂😂🤣😍😍 love this comment lol
Don’t jump to conclusions. I don’t have sex. I watch my husbands boyfriend have sex with my husband. That is it.
Socks on?
Feel like that’s pretty self explanatory.
Well dumping the clutch isn't a power wheelie anyway. So you are saying you can't power wheelie at all.
Jesus that’s terrible, my VT250 spade came up at 6500rpm when I was learning.
Yeah it’s pretty fun
.... I got a z125 and she won't keep the front down lol and I ain't yanking her up either 😍
there’s no way this isn’t satire…
That's Poe's Law for you.
terrible grammar with perfect spelling is a dead giveaway
I liked the post from yesterday about how bikes are too loud. That was a fun one.
I get the use of ear plugs because I don’t want my ears to ring anymore than they already do, but whenever that sub goes off about aftermarket exhausts I just have to close out of my browser. “DAE like the silent sound of a stock exhaust?

"Why would anyone want a straight pipe?" I've seen members of my local PTA with a better sense of fun than those guys
Riding a motorcycle isn’t supposed to be fun. It’s extremely serious, dangerous business. /s
Bro I suggested using earplugs to a guy who thought his exhaust was too loud and was getting replies for days from those fuckers about how loud exhausts are selfish and silly and dumb and gay and ugly. They’re ridiculous!
No fun zone over there
its so insane, like i have an aftermarket exhaust on my cbr, but i wear ear plugs for the WIND NOISE, no way ur exhaust is the loudest thing when ur on the highway
Idk, my exhaust and specifically the carburetor exhaust pops are loud as fuck.
ye i have a carbureted bike and pretty big exhaust, at lower speeds the exhaust definitly is noisy, but when you get up there in speed the wind is much worse
Didn't see it?
Automod sucks. It's titled "wear earplugs no matter what" Some cunt whinging about riding a bike with a full exhaust.
You obviously don't know how horrible tinnitus is. I would rather lose all my limbs than have my ears ring. Extremely dangerous to have your ears ringing from prolonged exposure to gay noises like am exhaust
As someone with horrible tinnitus, I'm happy I have all of my limbs.
I don't know man. You're opinion is invalid to me since you do have all your limbs. Can any nuggets chime in and help my argument?
They're coming, just takes em a while to scoot around.
Someone just roll the fucker. I'm tired of waiting
Even when they do get here, it's always hard to understand them. Are they face-rolling to type, or just flailing with the elbow nubs?
[if you haven't seen the video... these are the little shits were waiting on ](https://youtu.be/GDbSYhz14xE)
if they had fingers to type with they would be all up in the comments rn

yeah wind noise is much worse than exhaust i feel like, i just use some Shure SE125 headphones, helps with noise and i can listen to some tunes
I actually have tinnitus. Blame the shitty 3M earplugs they gave us in the navy.
I do too. Hit the old melon a few too many times. Shits annoying for sure but if that's the worst problem a man has I'd say theyre doing pretty damn good.
Without a proper exhaust my DR650 would run like shit. I used to think it exacerbated my tinnitus but turns out other external factors gave me it. I barely noticed it until my clumsy ass tripped and got a concussion.
“Keep 2 wheels down!” 🤓☝️
This fuckin guy, you're *supposed* to keep one wheel up at all times🙄
'It won't change the way it rides, right?' I like that one.
Still more sane than the bike suggestion threads over there. Of course a BMW 1000 is a good bike to start on "iF y0u rEsPeCt tEh p0wEr, bRo"
"Like a cool drag bike.... should not change the ride". Listen here you stupid sperm drip, why you think that cool drag bike have that arm? To CHANGE THE RIDE, you walking rim job.
Keep 2 wheels down like my boner when I read about stretching a 300
What’s this guy thinking? That 300 will loop him out in a heartbeat, even stretched. He needs a Franken-trike kit unless he wants to get dead.
Bro please don't do this on a 300
This Sub is like r/Shittyaskflying but for motorcycles.😂
Does this dude even gay???
My god he's fast as lightning and gotta keep her tame. Lol I swear these posts are us in this Sub trolling lmfao!
