/fa/ - Fashion

INB4 that Valentino Rossi wannabe sportbike rider shows up and shitposts about how much he hates cafe racers.

>>10132138

Haha, bring him on. I'll tell him how his repsol replica bike and matching leathers is just cosplay for 30something year old men.

>>10132152
His level of projection is laughable whenever he shows up.

wow it sure seems 2009 in here. LMAO all you 18 year olds who think cafe racers are still cool

>>10132264
Cafe racers didn't become as popular as they did until late 2013.

>>10132264

Am I speaking to the devil here?

Car guys, what's your opinion on old Porsches? For sentimental reasons, I would like to buy an old Porsche. Not really fussed on what model, just has to be old and has to be a Porsche. Can I get some opinions, advice and knowledge on these cars?

>>10132279
bullshit, i know because i bought one in 2010 after i got inspired seeing them posted on /fa/ lmao. honda cb350 for 2,000 los angelos craigslist. everyone at the time wanted one. i wonder what they go for now. im not hating they still look nice. just surprised people still on cafe nuts

>>10132336
I only saw them get dickrode to hell in 2013, and that was more by "HERITAGE OUTDOORS IF YOU DON'T HAVE A BEARD AND WEAR NOTHING BUT FLANNEL U AREN'T HERITAGE" types than /fa/gs.

>>10132336
>i wonder what they go for now
Less than what you paid. They're not more valuable because of a few fa-threads

>>10132336

So you bought into the cafe racer style back in 2010 and are dissing people now for liking a style you bought into? How hipster.

Oh, and if you really did buy a real custom, it would have cost more than $2000.

I'm heading off to bed. Be back in about 4/5 hours.

Best BMW.

Ducati is so based, any cafe racer or naked bike is pretty good looking

>>10132735
agreed. If only they didn't cost half a million dollars

My commuter. Really want a datsun 240z for a fun project

>>10134309

>>10134315

>>10132307
be prepared to drop ALOT of money to keep it running. Parts and services will cost a fair bit if something goes wrong

I'm thinking about getting a motorcycle. What is an /fa/ bike for beginners under 5k, under 3k would be ideal.

>>10132735
niggas so proud they put 2 bmw emblems in the back just incase u didnt see the first one

>>10134330
what country are you in? are there power restrictions?

what are ur preferences? have you looked at equipment that you're gonna wear?

>>10134330

What are the restrictions for first motorcycle purchase within your country? If there are none, we have an open playing field. If you're stuck under a certain power:weight ratio or cc limit, then we have to explore what's available.

>>10132130
w2c

>>10132307
944s aren't that old, but pretty legit and effay imo. and not as difficult to keep running as some of the older shit, and probably cheaper to maintain than some of the newer shit.

>>10134905
>>10134346

I'm in the USA, calif to be exact. Pretty sure there are no restrictions but I haven't checked

what is it with you posting shit bikes? pic related a real exotic /fa/ bike that performs well

>>10132307
cop a post smog 911 for pennies on the dollar

>>10132045
is my z3 fa

>>10135334
i dont think any of us is batman enough to pull that off

>>10135334
that edge on the gas tank looks uncomfortable. It looks like a constant struggle not to slide forward and poke my gut into it.

>>10135421
only if you're a girl

>>10136385
THIS!

I have always thought that this series are for women who know how to drive, if you're a man and own a z3 or z4 i will doubt you're heterosexual

>>10134983
>>>/o/dbt

>>10134983

Okay now we have to think about what you'll be using it for. Long commutes? Stop start traffic in the city? On the weekends will you want to take it to the twisty hills? Would you prefer long, windy roads?

And then we have to think about style. Your basic styles include cruisers, nakeds, sports, road and trail. There are many other but these are the most basic. From this, are you a fan of older bikes or newer bikes?

From here, we can figure more shit out.

>>10135334

Did you know that taste in style is subjective?

>>10134957

I've been lookin at 944s and 924s. What are the main differences between the two, would you know?

>>10135403

I do respect the 911 but the style is too classic for my taste.

this is my bike. 1998 883 sportster. what do you guys think? (spent less than $3000 to custom it)

>>10136737

I dig that. I always loves seeing garage built bikes.

Have you owned many bikes?

>>10135334
Because /fa/ is not a brood of Affliction/True Religion-wearing, fake-tanned, spike-haired douchebags trying far too hard to pretend to be MotoGP racers.

Vintage pickups can be /fa/

>want to get a bike
>don't want to get tapped by a sedan and go spiraling through the air to my high impact, crunchy death

goddamn do i love rectangular grills

>>10132210
disgusting

>>10132264
sexiest sounding 6-cylinder on the road

>>10136516
And men who drive Miata or boxsters are gay too?

>>10132045

>>10132264
cool chrome wheels

You could die right now. Every time you step out side the house, you risk losing your life to a million different things. When you cross the road, when you step onto a train station, when you walk past a dim light neighbourhood. If you live the rest of your life taking a few precautions because you might die, then you'll never live.

I would rather a short lived life and my death be on a bike than a long life where I never got to truly live.

>>10136702
I would probably use it for getting around town, within 25 miles at most. Might go on the highway once in a while. I prefer older bikes

>>10138697

Sweet as. Okay, and now out of these, what resonates with you the most?

>>10132735
its moving

>>10138718
Standard looks nice

>>10132045
Hey, I've been trying to learn how to build bikes for a while now, and I really love that design. Would it be possible to purchase that bike from you? Also are there any books or online guides you can recommend?

>>10136737
never understood the appeal of usd forks on cruisers. i get that modern cafe racers are based on aesthetics and all, but i dont get how you're enjoying riding that thing with so much road feel.

Ducati 748/998 is imo one of their most beautifully designed bikes. such a shame it comes with a bank account worth of maintenance problems.

>>10135421
really wanted this car, still do

>>10138642
this is what biker fags actually think

>>10139133
Who know more about Motorbikes and Motorbike
related accidents, people who ride bikes or you?

>>10139139
Do you want to end up like that guy?

>>10139152
No one does, that's why I ride wearing gear and took motorbike courses to teach me how to be safer.

>>10139158
I sure don't, I hope you don't either. cheers

>>10139152
life is about taking risks and finding ways of mitigating those risks. this could include wearing proper gear and having the proper skills to avoid situations like this.>>10139133
