    bike feels rough at high rpm?

    Just started happening. Around above 5, 6k rpm. The bike feels like it vibrates more.. I ride a ninja 250. Could it be just my bike wasnt properly warmed up?

    winter beater

    I couldnt believe it either. A car worth 4000$, insurance would be same as my van. About 2k a year. Anyway. So a 2nd car is out of question. Short distance is 15 km city roads.

    winter beater

    Apologies if I wasnt too clear. My main car is a minivan. Need it for transporting family. But when I am alone and need to go somewhere, I like to take the bike. I want to continue this in the winter months. Or at least when it gets too cold I will use the car at no choice. Oh I initially I...

    winter beater

    While searching for a winter beater that is light on gas.. I found that insurance for it is going to a killer for a 2nd car. Could I ride a street legal dirt bike on city roads? I only need to ride short distance to work.

    TCX X-Cube or square

    One thing I noticed is the boot is narrow. Or at least it looks like that. How's the air flow? I just got them today. Didn't test them out yet.

    knox cross lite long knee guards

    I ordered a pair of these. I found them very comfortable. However the pads are not that hard at all. And they don't cover all the way down the shin. They are very easy to put on.

    Advice for first 2up Ride...

    i did my "test" 2up the other day. One feedback from the passenger was it was hard to hold on to me. Or the passenger's hands would get sore from holding together. Any advice about this? My bike doesn't have any grab rails.
