    Complete beginner getting Bmw s1000RR as first bike?

    others will say to check to see what insurance would be before buying. Also, if you get it, make sure you sign the organ donor part on your license

    What type of fuel do you use?

    I compromise and use Shell Silver 89. (5% ethanol). The last couple of fill ups before winter i use Shell 91 (no ethanol) One thing about vehicle manuals tho. They always say to use XX octane minimum. So would say to use minimum 87 but do not say to not use a higher octane.

    New Bike day today

    if you are buying one of these to use on the hwy, you bought the wrong bike. If i want to go fast and far on the hwy i have the NC750 for that. This Z125 is just something better than a scooter, will use it to have fun on over winter when it not practical to take the big bike out.

    What Are You Currently Listening To?

    Discovered these all female Japanese metal / rock girl bands. Mind blown. These girls are saving rock-n-roll. Started with Babymetal. Then one day a new (to me) group appeared in my YouTube feed. "Band-Maid" They are awesome. Love every one of their songs. Nice to see such a talented group of...
