Inspection for motorcycle insurance

I would have called another insurance company and kept the exhaust. Save a bit of weight. Riders Plus is a pretty good broker for new riders.

Ask questions about bike "mods" before giving your information.



Lowering a bike, especially a sports bike, for the road SHOULD be a hard no. They handle like pigs and are far more dangerous.

I was shopping for Ninja 250's a few years ago and test road one. Thought it handled very oddly. I looked underneath and noticed the non-OEM dog bones on the linkage...bike was lowered. The owner genuinely didn't know and had been riding it like that for a year.

Lowering isn't hard, but you have to adjust the front too. That might be why the test one wasn't riding correctly. Done properly, the handling isn't adversely affected for road use.
