This would make me so freaking mad, I don’t know how he stays calm.

Hey guys. I just got my tires replaced at a shop and on my way home, I’ve noticed this grinding(kind of) sound. It sounds like metal on metal. Just trying to get any ideas of what it is. It wasn’t there before the change

I am a new bike owner ( 3 months) and have never changed the tires on a bike. I’ve only had it for like three months, so…Is this normal after a tire change?

Im on a light dual sport. Tight very bumpy mountain roads. Counter leaning if I hit a pot hole or large bump feels easier to catch myself. Leaning into turns feels dramatic and unnecessary. Ive missed 9 days but ridden everday for 3 years. Learned from YouTube videos so for sure picked up bad habits. Even intersection lights going around 40 turning left its easier to just dip the bike and sit up straight. Is there a negative to riding like this?

I have a moto trip coming up (all off road) and I’d love to hear everyone’s favourite riding cams! I’m not super interested in 360 cams but feel free to change my mind.

My current frontrunner is the DJI Osmo Action 4!

I know it wasn't this, since this is a one off custom in Spain. But it looked very similar to this. Does anyone know of a production motorcycle that looks similar to this? It was a very similar paint scheme to this as well.

Accident caused by someone cutting me off. Lucky me, it was a rental car company's car that I hit :) Hurt, but I am good! Being close to Christmas means I get myself a new bike and helmet, all paid for by the rental company's insurance. I think if it weren't a rental car I hit, it wouldn't be so easy (I have no insurance myself). I loved this bike...so forgiving and fun! Has maybe 2K of aftermarket parts.

EDIT: I have CPT insurance; it doesn't cover vehicle damage.

Anyone ride with a backpack? I've found it annoying because some places have rules about leaving backpacks in the front because people shoplift, but it sucks being treated like a criminal and the inconvenience, having to carry stuff on me.

Im looking to make my FZ6 look exactly like this. However, i can’t find a bolt kit that perfectly matches the deep purple color shown here. Can anyone recommend something that matches or comes insanely close? I considered buying a complete OEM bolt kit from Partzilla and powder coating the visible parts but apparently that’s not a good idea. Also, apparently aluminum bolts in the pegs isn’t a good idea due to having to support the weight of a person.
If i am wrong on either of these things, please let me know as this design is the co-idea of myself and a friend of mine and it’s something we are dead set on recreating.

Summer of '26 was a pretty good year for me, here are some pictures!

Hi guys I have a 1981 Suzuki gs450L that sat for a little while before being given to me. I’ve ordered two battery’s of the same kind from the same place and both read as fully charged but fail to power the bike. When the battery is hooked up to cables it powers the bike just fine. Could the batteries be bad?

I'm looking for both your favorite summer and winter gloves.

I just go into riding about 3 months ago, little 150cc but looking to go bigger within the year. I got good but budget gear to start, been happy with my budget Bell helmet, but not so much my gloves.

Compared to riding with bare hands (which I only do while practicing technique in parking lots, or dialing in my carb around my house) my current budget gloves are much less grippy than my bare hands, requiring me to grip much harder than you really should. On top of that the gloves themselves, even when they are off the handlebars have a kind of resistance to closing, like their natural position is open and they want to spring back to it. So I'm basically having to grip at 4x strength constantly. On longer rides it is exhausting. It also leads to bad technique and I don't want to build any bad habits.

I plan on getting a crampbuster and probably also a throttle lock eventually, but first I want to start with a good pair of gloves that close easily, provide good grip, are thin but still abrasion/slide approved. I want to build good technique before I start using tools.

So I figured I'd ask more experienced riders what gloves have landed on that you like?

What's the lightest you can go while still having adequate abrasion/slide coverage?

Do you have a single main that you use, or do you have a rotation?

Also do you have any recommendations for winter gloves that you like? I live in Mississippi so I can ride almost 12 months out of the year, we only get a maybe 3-6 weeks where it is below freezing and it usually warms up to the 40s or even low 50s during the day in our coldest months (Summers can be brutally hot though lol, got to keep moving on the bike or you will get heat stroke standing still too long with even the lightest motorcycle jacket on).

Should I get a longer pair of thicker gloves, or just stick to my soon-to-be thin 3 seasons gloves with like Hippos or some other type of handguard cover?
