I've met one decent BMW owner, but he got it second-hand for a song due to some strange circumstances. In general I agree with you completely.

Soft roaders of all types and costs, e.g. recent Range Rovers, big black 4x4s with stupid wheels and road tyres.

>>27345

Wranglers and mostly any JEEP branded vehicle.

> You can even get the studs pulled

The first time I read that I had (horrible) images of someone with a pair of pliers pulling the individual studs from tires.

I just put my summers on a about a month ago, a day before it snowed yet again. I also re-trued the wheels and replaced the old duct tape, so I'm all ready to go.

>>27269 No hookups, chappy. :P

>>27303 I'm pretty sure you pull them by hand. With a screwdriver and a hammer. Not that hard really. Just takes some time.

In Alaska we have bicycles that have really really fat tires and oven mit-type handlebar covers. They have enough surface area to go over snowpack. People have some pretty awesome back country adventures on them.

I would love to ride around my non-Alaskan-wilderness city of Melbourne, Australia on one of those bike looking like a total cunt. It would make me so happy.

Thanks for replying, I was really wondering about that for two weeks.

I'm a pretty big eco driver as well, I drive an auto but I accelerate slowly enough that the revs stay under 2500. But I speed sometimes so it's pretty often that someone passes me then like 20 sec later I'll pass them.
I also roll through all stop signs and often make right turns on red lights as if they were green (if I know it's clear of course). Gotta save that gas nigga. My 96 Acura has shit fuel efficiency and takes premium so I need it

I heel-toe all my downshifts when I'm not approaching a dead stop. Yeah, I'm pretty great.

I'd be interested in hearing more about the "take advantage of the system" part.

you know the take a penny leave a penny trays, i always take a penny.

you know, food banks, get you one of those food stamp cards from your area before you leave. It's easy to be homeless if you can think for yourself.

>>27436

It's not that easy to just get food stamps. There are generally a lot of forms to fill out, requirements to meet (and if you lie you can get fined heavily), stuff like that. It isn't as if they just eagerly hand you the card. At least, not where I live.

>>27437
all you do is provide proof of citizenship and you last letter of termination, and it depends heavily if you have money in the bank. I got mine online, never had to meet one person face to face when I was laid off from work, took 15 minutes, go to compas.gov.

>>27300
none, to be honest, i too have a sleeve and "skate" up my ribcage from armpit t hip bone. They get really disturbed seeing a light skinned man try to enter. I went two years ago, so it may be different, but i doubt it. You can however go to the seedy districts and find a "redlight" district, then youre good. but they will strong arm you like a mofo, I had to end up paying the equivalent of 700 bucks to get my passport and clothes back lol it was scary then, but looking back I could have got shot and no one would have known.

>>27302
Well fuck. Haha. I had booked one already but when we (my friend and I) asked the agency if tattoos were allowed they said no. They said that if they were small I could cover them with bandages and they would let me in, but as I can't we had to cancel our reservation. If I couldn't find a different one beforehand I was going to ask people for a recommendation when I got there.

That sucks that you went through that! Is that kind of stuff common in those areas?
I look like Jafar if he filled out his beard and had a huge curly ponytail so I would hope I look too intimidating to mess with, but I'm just going to do my best not to rub anybody the wrong way. Hopefully I'll do fine since normally I'm really respectful and polite in public anyway.

It's just chance really, I would just go and point to your tattoo if you really want to be respectful to show them that you have them to gauge their reaction. I'm heading to Japan this winter hopefully and i'm just gonna see how it goes and maybe get a bandage since mine is small.

Some onsen though just wont like you if they are old and racist, so theres that sadly. Have a good trip and maybe bring some omiyage if you want to make friends or coerce a onsen owner :)

>>27298
Every place will accept you as long as you have it covered up, its not nearly as accepted there, not sure about onsen though. Ask? i mean cmon there are so many other alternatives / other onsen's. Japan is beautiful however may you help me out with one answer? How did you learn Japanese ? how long did it take you? Tafe, Collage , uni and or Private classes are not available or too expensive (2k a course / 40$ an hour)

It's a Soviet car.

Shamrock green paintjob? 20" rims? Some crappy convertible?
Hell no, bitch! Pump that engine, make sure all the transmission parts are up to scratch and do everything you can to make this car a hidden beast without replacing everything except the overall shape. Leave it looking it does naturally and make sure it rides like that. Have to balls to have a hidden gem in your garage, something only you and the people you trusts know about.

Have that jewel be the jewel it is. Don't change 90% of the car and call it the same name. Don't conform to the Speedy and Itching 6 To get Killed type of person.

>>27373
gotta agree with this. it's an older car you probably shouldn't butcher it... keep the interior/exterior stock, maybe suspension. and some new tires. but then again its your car do whatever you want...

also, ive never understood putting some $5,000 racing suspension in an old car. most old cars ( i know nothing on the one you speak of) are ment to go fast and in a straight line, not whipping around corners on a road course.

In Australia, the 200sx usually means it's the Silvia model, I think. Was hoping to import myself a nice little mid 90's supra. The driver's side reminds me of a fucking cockpit.

Saving up for an S15, a clean spec-r is just under £5000 to import here, and all the ones for sale are modded out their eyeballs. Not looking forward to the insurance though

>>27175
yeah, rx7 batty drivers control panel is a cockpit for a spaceship too, it's awesome. and yeah that 200sx is classed as rs13 silvia so you may be right.

It's a learning experience brotha

I'll know everything about what to do and what not do when I'm sporting my Ducati in a couple years.

>>25971
So... You're paying interest on something you've already damaged.

There are few circumstances when buying new is a good idea. Folks, always buy used for your first few cars.

>>27241

Why buy new period unless you are seriously getting big dollas and don't give a fuck.

Most motor vehicles have a minimum drop of 10-20% value as soon as you roll it out the door. If you want something minty just by one with 5000~ km/miles on it and save your self money.

`86 Zx600 Ninja. Glad I stuck it out and looked homo on my fleet of 50cc mopeds, while others carried on on their brand new financed 250`s learning how to ride. Now those same people I envied are trading their bikes for babies or outrunning child support payments on half the bike they barely ride and using it as a status symbol. Enjoy your monthly payments guys. I think a 250 is a great bike for people who have no business on a sport bike. It's just too much bike for little girls and lesbians. 250`s look as good as a sport bike and decreases the danger to moped levels.

At my size, I can handle a bigger bike and know I would out ride the miniature bikes in a day and want to upgrade to a real sport bike. I like the power band of cruising around like a hog or full super sport racing without burning out the smaller engine on a long run.

I'm also free to customize its appearance without fear of losing value, since a good deal plus a little hustling on some spare parts the guy threw in and I`m GETTING paid to take the bike after extensive research to make sure all of this is above board and title able. I was a little sketch at first on the idea of such a good deal, but I`m pretty sure the guy walked away feeling like he screwed me out of money on a shitty old bike that would be a pain to title. I didn't even bother haggling the price when he said he would go lower out of the blue. I figure at the list price I could pay full and make him deliver it all the way across town.

Then I put it back together fixed it, tuned it, apholstered the seats and customizing it with cheap chinese aftermarket bling to customize and update its look then finish it with the kanji Kawasaki ninja logo, hoping people won't recognize the bike from `86 and wonder wtf it is.

Don't have pics yet, but here`s a rough draft when I was worrying about the color schemes.

>>27284

> 250`s look as good as a sport bike and decreases the danger to moped levels

Don't listen to him op, 30mph on anything is dangerous. The bike flies away and your weak human body is left to fend for itself, unless you're smart and good enough to avoid those situations.

> It's just too much bike for little girls and lesbians
> I can handle a bigger bike and know I would out ride the miniature bikes in a day

You sound like a guy who uses the bike as a power symbol and brags about it to people. Also, didn't you mean to post in the other thread?
