  1. The italian guy in the design team took the afternoon off right when they finished that bike's rear end. From the rider's part of the seat backwards they did that in 15 minutes.
  2. Honda sells good value bikes, that's why. Considering the price of building raw materials today, they're selling more metal for the money.
  3. I would say the new one never looks clean, even the ones in the show room. Thus, the new ones will never look like they're unclean either. Agreed, the rear subframe being white suits it. The others don't look nice at all compared to that, but knowing BMW they'll release the Adventure in one year and that will look even better, and then two months later they'll release a new color scheme that will make all previous ones look like shit.
  4. Similar to the previous 1250. Starts at 20 or 21k and then on bikes found at dealerships there's always a minimum of 5 or 6k of extras added on, many of those I would prefer to not have. That's what I don't like about this bike on concept, it comes stock with things I would prefer not to have to deal with.
  5. visited a dealership today, to buy some waterproofing spray as I might go on a ride in the next few days. Took the chance to go look at the new GS. Good thing is that it looks a lot less ugly in real life than on youtube. It feels smaller than mine as well, which it is so it’s not really surprising. Had a sit on one that I could start for it to go back up to riding height, and it does feel lighter. The paint they use now on the engine and swingarm is not smooth anymore, a little like bedliner or wrinkle paint, not really a fan but it looks hardy. It is a complicated bike though, very complicated.
  6. Maybe heading to be more of a smaller Transalp than a trail CB?
  7. Looking at the orange one, it's clear they didn't even consider a legal license plate holder and lights until after it was done
  8. Here you go @XTreme! Hero Xtreme 160R, on full styling and profiling mode: https://www.heromotocorp.com/en-in/motorcycles/performance/xtreme-160r.html

    5th November

    I just wouldn’t bother on that weather, good for you!
  10. I think it looks better than the current version. That guy looking at it doesn’t seem very impressed with it, though
  11. Taiwan I think, who have been making good mountainbike parts for years…
  12. If you’re a goner leave a note to the wife to turn that topbox into a flower garden. If you’re stressing, it’s good to leave this sort of things written down, makes you calmer and by doing it it already helps yourself.
  13. The ones sold in Europe and US are apparently assembled in the UK, apart from the little ones.
  14. There were no rules this month, just horizontal pictures with your own bike taken the same month. You could have submitted a picture, or complain about it after ignoring the thread until submissions were over. There's always next month!
  15. Shut up @Marcel. There's 8 bikes, if 8 members can't vote there would be nobody else.
  16. If I do it in November then it'll be open so you can all go snoop and see who didn't vote for you. Submiting a picture helps, though.
  17. When you're creating a poll you get the options on top, below the poll tittle:
  18. You have that option when creating the poll. Not when voting.
  19. I know, but maybe do it next time while warning people, or not
  20. Maybe we can try changing it up and making votes public when setting the next poll. Fun times.
