    Tinted/smoked visors at night?

    I just bought a Scorpion EXO-400 and switching visors with it is a breeze. Takes me 10 seconds, even while wearing the helmet. I ride a lot with the dark smoke visor and nighttime in the city doesn't bother me. Have yet to get stuck with it out in the country but my jacket has a spot for a spare...

    That first ride of the weekend

    Usually in the first 5-10 minutes I'm still waiting for the bike and tires to properly warm up, so if there's anytime to exercise higher than usual caution (be it because of the jitters or whatever), the start of the ride is best :p

    Newbie with a few questions.

    Motorcycles are not very difficult to learn how to ride. If a regular bicycle is natural to you now, you're really only going to need to get used to the manual transmission and weight of the motorcycle for the most part (many might disagree with this statement but countersteering should be...

    Insurance 20 year old male.2012 Honda CBR250

    If you sit on your M2 for a year, TD will very likely give you a quote of less than 2000. As it is now, it will be hard to find a quote around there without having car/house combined insurance. Give it a shot nonetheless, especially if you're a university student. TD Meloche Mennox, Statefarm...

    Pro-rated with TD MM

    That's a great price. I'm paying just under 1300 for a 09 Ninja 250r, 22 with 3 years M2. Are you a university student? You get even bigger discounts for being in a "qualified" school.

    I saw you ( speed trap version)

    Wow, I live 5 minutes from the area, and in the 14 years that I have lived there, I have never seen this one. Scary.

    Where did you ride today? - New rider version

    I had to lol at the part where you showed the guy on the blue R6 blowing past you in your lane but taking the corner before the bridge at a snails pace haha. And great song choice, Brad Sucks is awesome. Shame not enough people listen to him.

    sliding in the rain?

    Pretty much this, anticipate your stops earlier etc etc and you should be fine. I instinctively use a little bit of rear brake while stopping so I end up using it in the rain but with a gradual slow amount its definitely controllable without major slippage.

    what its all about

    Are you talking about bicyclists? If so, I don't see what the big deal is, passing them is easy enough to do on a motorcycle... I drive a DZ truck at work and they can be a real pain in the *** to pass on rural roads sometimes. But yes, I have to agree, a lot of them are not particularly...

    Has commuting on your bike, reduced your passion for riding?

    I'm very fortunate to be riding in the first place being so young so I'm happy to be on the road commute or for pleasure. I ride (almost) all year long and have only been riding for a couple years, but after work/weekends I always leave out some time for pleasure rides and they're always...

    how late do you ride your motorcycle?

    Wow, I do this too. I'm up at 4:30 most mornings for work and my exhaust is just screaming loud.. Not to mention its carbureted, so it takes a bit to warm up and the choke makes it all that much more louder.. I also ride anytime of day or night. Don't see what the big deal is whether its 10 PM...

    So sick of this **** weather

    I rode to work and back today... wasn't bad at all. I think just Sunday was lousy. But I'll ride in just about anything!

    Part of the club now...

    It happens. Lucky for you Ninja's are pretty bulletproof and replacing the fairings damaged shouldn't break the bank too bad either. I'm curious what happened when you went down... too fast? What tires are you using? I use Sport Demons on mine and they handle the rain pretty well. Mind you I...
