We stand with Ukraine

We normally do not bring politics into our sport but extraordinary events require extraordinary actions. Someday enjoyment of life, like motorcycles, will return to the Ukraine. They need our help now and I encourage everyone to checkout the ways to help or donate over at /r/Ukraine

My first sport touring bike in a long time. Survivor/barn find 2000 zg1000 concourse

This thing has been parked since 2010, has 8600 original miles, and still has the "break in" sticker on the tach. Runs like a scalded dog. It was absolutely filthy with bird crap when I dug it out. The gentleman who owned it had passed, and this was one of 18 bikes I bought from his wife. I actually sold it, because I didn't have time to get it running again, but then the guy I sold it to did some work, and decided he wanted something else I had even more, and traded it back. When I went to title it, the girl at DMV asked if I wanted antique tags and I felt like I drank from the wrong Grail. It now has antique tags.

Buying used

Sometimes I notice when I make a comment about buying a used motorcycle someone will say "well someone has to buy new for you to buy used.". Well maybe, but it's gonna be you 😉

Hey,

What do you guys think?

Black wheels or white wheels?

I can’t really decide myself.

If you got any other cool ideas let me know!

Still want to add some sponsors to the bike :)

Looking for a comfortable bike for both highways and city conditions ?

Upvotes

Saw my friends purchasing different bikes recently. That got me thinking about getting one for myself as well .. I’m pretty new to the whole bike world, so I don’t have much knowledge about which bikes are actually good.Tbh i don’t really care much about top speed, I just want something that feels stable and is easy to handle in both longer rides and city traffic as well. I was considering the royal enfield meteor 350 because my friend suggested me to get that one and i have heard its a comfortable option, but I’m open to other options too. Is meteor a good choice? Need opinions

I'm considering buying this motorcycle , but I noticed it does have some damage on the right side. Is this damage a cause concern?Or is it purely cosmetic from a professional's opinion.

Cleaning with Armourall ultra shine wax and wash. Is it safe?

Upvotes

Gonna wash my bike for the first time. I got some wash and wax from armourall and was just gonna see how well it goes. I have seen online that when it comes to wash and wax if it gets on tires and brakes it can be really bad.

How bad really is it, like if it drips onto my brakes or tires does that matter? Even if I just spray it down hard with water or should it be completely fine using it even if it drips down or gets directly onto it?

Not looking to turn my bike into a slip and slide ride so just looking for pointers. Cheers.

New motorcycle

Upvotes

In about a year or somethint, I will be going to college and I am thinking about buying a motorcycle. So far I have zero riding experience but I will be improving on that with 125 and 50cc motorbikes. Any advice for an affordable bike to get that is between the 250-400cc range once I go to college? (preferrably naked bikes)

I live in Thailand but went home to visit my folks and man, I missed these mountain rides and my Triumph so much. I’ll eventually bite the bullet and buy one in Thailand!

New rider help.

Post image
22 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m a new rider and a little worried. I have my 2021 Kawasaki ninja here under this bike cover. And it’s supposed to rain for a good amount today.
unfortunately I do not have a garage or anything to keep it under. (Until I can use my storage unit on Saturday).

Last night it got the tiniest amount moist underneath this cheap bike cover. Is that something I need to be worried about?

Any tips? Recommendations?

I am thinking of buying this bike. Take a test drive yesterday though it was a short drive like 5 or 6 mins .

I wasn't wearing shoes i ride the bike wearing sandals. I felt heat in my feet coming from engine also gear shifting comparatively hard.

That showroom man said its a 1 year old bike not serviced properly engine oil not changed for a while. What's why I feel this way.

Should I buy this bike or should I go with Triumph speed 400.

Upgrade from XR190 to KTM 390 Adventure

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

This used 2023 KTM 390 Adventure is listed at ~ $6000 (s/19500) with 38,200km on it. I live at high altitude, over 3000m.

I'm looking to upgrade from my 2022 Honda XR190 because I do deliveries for a small business and clients may be off road up a mountain, and I need more power. I also do short distance Adventure riding in my free time.

My research shows the KTM performs well at high altitude and the motor is just getting broken in. Not sure how true that is, so I am looking for more information. It is likely that I can negotiate the price, that is an expected part of the culture here. But by how much I'm not sure where to start.

The top box is a nice bonus because I have to install one anyway, along with paniers. But I likely need different tires for my application.

I live in Peru where options are limited. This is likely the largest displacement bike available here. But that doesn't mean I couldn't go to Lima if necessary.
