    Bike evaluation

    This will mimic a lot of the previous comments but either keep the 390 or go for a middle ground. I went 300-CBR650- MT09 aside from insurance being $150/mo cheaper now then it would have been 2 years ago A buddy has a street fighter V2 as his bike(his dream bike) and it’s faster but you’d...

Upshifting 1-2 is clunking with it so I use the clutch but the rest are buttery and...

I’ve got the over coats/pants for rain and I’m not worried about riding in the rain but depending on the level of rain what if they miss a shoulder check and mark me for it?
