K... same view from the window.... With window in pic... Otherwise bullshit...

You Texans are so desperate that you want to overlook our shit ?

[shaft]

lol yeah, now that you've posted.

Do poor ppl wake up to this shit?... Lol I didn't think so...

not bad...that deck is pathetic though..

[losCHUNK]

If he gets everyone within 15 miles to start throwing shit in his garden then in 20-25 yrs he could have the view hes always dreamed of

[xer0s]

Geoff's small deck...

[YourGrandpa]

No dipshit,

Ignorance

I was just helping you understand what GKY obviously meant considering the weight and size between various increments in motorcycle engine classes is minimal.

Assumption.

Whether the bike is too powerful for you or not has nothing to do with your size.

Speculation.

You're just too much of a clueless imbecile to understand that.

And more ignorance.

Thanks.

[LawL]

No assumptions, ignorance or speculation. If you weren't such a massive motorcycle n00b you'd understand that.

[GONNAFISTYA]

I'll go as far to say that GKY didn't mean anything by his comment and his only agenda was to make fun.

And you'd be wrong...like always. I tell the same thing to anyone who isn't an experienced rider: get used to riding on a smaller bike first.

I honestly don't care if you grind a leg off on the pavement. It's called "natural selection" and is the best way for culling stupid.

No assumptions, ignorance or speculation. If you weren't such a massive motorcycle n00b you'd understand that.

How would YOU know if a bike was too big or small for ME without making assumptions?

[scared?]

Geoff's small deck...

450 sqft... Kids ride their tricycles on it... U lose...

Prolly upgrade it soon though...

There's plenty, assuming GKY was calling gwamps a skinny cunt and thinking he can ride a hog like a big boy without kissing tarmac, for ignorance

I never said anything about whether a bike was too big or small for you, you imbecile. I pointed out the fact that when someone says you should get a smaller bike due to your lack of experience they are referring to engine displacement. But because you're a clueless idiot you think they're referring to the physical size of the bike, which is why you started spitting out your physical stats as a response. You're a fucking moron, like always.

[scared?]

Lol gramps engages lawl like no other... ...

[LawL]

And I crush him almost as bad as I crush you.

[scared?]

You type more words and really try too hard to all his posts... It's obvious and pathetic... ...

[losCHUNK]

Shit gets condensed for you, not expanded for gwamps. Moron.

Geoff is jealous of the attention I give Gramps.

[scared?]

Lol u mad...

lol

The utter stupidity from rednecks on this board is bottomless. There is simply no end to it.

You continue to make assumptions...

GKY didn't say this: "you should get a smaller bike due to your lack of experience they are referring to engine displacement." You assumed it.

You nor GKY know anything about my motorcycle experience. You assumed it.

I didn't think this: "you think they're referring to the physical size of the bike" You assumed it.

"which is why you started spitting out your physical stats as a response" I gave a specific motor size and my physical size to answer either of two questions I ASSUMED GKY was referencing. 1) I was comfortable with a 1130cc bike. and 2) I was physically capable of safely operating the bike.

"You're a fucking moron, like always."

More ignorance.

Have you been on a bike before? If not (since you admitted you don't know bikes) then you'd be crazy starting off with a big Harley (lol redneck bike, etc) and should get a smaller bike instead.

Pretty fucking clear to anyone (who even remotely knows motorcycles) what my point was.

You are a stupid redneck who will always be a stupid redneck because stupid rednecks cannot be anything other than stupid rednecks. You're completely incapable of being anything else.

Now go buy your next alpha-male wannabe toy and get into traffic. Please.

That's a pretty ugly harley and high miles for that kind of bike.

do you think a 1300cc honda fury is too big of a bike for a noob?




I'm 6'0" 185lbs
I used to ride small 100cc's (cluchless) back in the day when I was 14-16.. that's as far as my experience goes.

but I really liek the bike, and anything around 750cc looks like shit.


if I was to get a used 750cc to fuck around with first, what type of mileage do you think is acceptable for a bike?

Big V-twins aren't as hard to start off on as some other kinds of bikes, but I'd look to something else as a first bike as a general rule. It helps if you think of it as your 'learner' bike, it makes it easier to ride an ugly one

You'd do better to get something smaller and older like a shadow 750 or the like to start on. Smaller, lighter bikes are easier to learn on, plus they're easier to maneuver at slow speeds. Even if you don't have a slow speed crash early on, lots of people tip over their bikes in parking lots etc. just from being new to maneuvering a bike. You're more likely to tip something bigger, and if you get something like that Fury as your first bike, you've now scrapped up and tipped your nice new bike.

Take one of the MSF classes, get yourself some riding gear, and get a smaller bike to start (750-800 for a cruiser, ~500-700 for a standard, no I4s). The MSF and an older, cheaper bike will let you know if you're even into riding without too much cost. It'll also give you an idea of what you like to ride. You might spend 6 months or a year on a smaller cruiser and decide that a big cruiser isn't for you, you'd like a standard more...or something.

As far as how many miles are acceptable: for a prob 10-15 year old Japanese cruiser I'd worry less about miles and more about how it was ridden and maintained. Some guys will have bikes that old with 2 or 3 thousand miles, but all that really means is that it sat for a lot of years and likely had little maintenance done to it. Rubber bits will be dry and fluids will be old. I'd take a bike the same age with 10 or 15,000 miles over one with less, potentially, if you know it's been ridden, oil's been changed, work has been done on it, etc.

I tell people this stuff on reddit and forums everyday so ask if you have any other questions, but the main thing is: Sign up for a riding class, get gear, and buy used, older, and cheap for a first bike. It's your first, not your last, and it'll make getting that 'dream bike' that much better when you have confidence in your riding abilities.

[scared?]

I was wondering who that moron on reddit was...

[YourGrandpa]

Have you been on a bike before?

Yes. I use to ride quite frequently. And because a friend owned a motorcycle shop I got to ride various sizes.

If not (since you admitted you don't know bikes) then you'd be crazy starting off with a big Harley (lol redneck bike, etc) and should get a smaller bike instead.

I don't know about specifics like make/model/performance. I don't study motorcycles. But I do have a general knowledge. I have enough general knowledge to know that 1130cc Harley isn't considered "BIG" by any sense of the term.

Pretty fucking clear to anyone (who even remotely knows motorcycles) what my point was.

You've never mentioned motorcycles. Why would I expect some fat computer nerd to know anything about motorcycles, unless I assumed? However, I did cover both aspects of your comment.

You are a stupid redneck who will always be a stupid redneck because stupid rednecks cannot be anything other than stupid rednecks. You're completely incapable of being anything else.

BLAH BLAH BLAH Ignorance.

Now go buy your next alpha-male wannabe toy and get into traffic. Please.

And more ignorance.
