I am aware of the penalties, nor will I be using it in a reckless way. I rode the bike many times to work last year and I felt it was lacking on the highways. I want a bike that will be able to drive at highway speeds and not feel like I am stressing the engine too much. A 650 would be an ideal...

This is a condensed version of my list. New Pro Longer life span Learning/giving proper care from bottom up (breaking in, etc) Warranty Dealership takes care of bike start-up requirements Con Higher initial cost Financing Potential greater risk of theft Used Pro Cheaper to put on road No...

It is a big jump, but i figure it would be a better longer term investment. I wish to keep my next purchase for a long time and I want to be a worthwhile investment. Also my insurance provider will charge me more for a 650 than a 600 due to a larger displacement. I do not agree with their...

I am not afraid to push the bike harder. My experiences on the 250 is that any speeds higher than 120 takes too long to arrive at. I want something faster for this purpose.

Hey everyone, I have been been debating with myself on buying a new or used bike for this season. I have been drawing up a list of pros and cons of a new or used bike and I thought I would ask the advice of the good people on this forum. I just started riding last spring and I started on a...

I rent where I am living atm. My landlord is friendly so I think I could convince her to put one up. That is a great suggestion though.

Yeah I plan on going home for lunch today and bringing the bike back. For the piece of mind, and that it's a shame to not be riding on such a nice day! However I think I will use a stuffed skunk, chained down cover, AND the rifle to protect my bike. Seems reasonable to me!

The cover has clips, but I never bothered to clip them up last night. I doubt it was the wind that removed the cover as I do not recall hearing any wind, and this morning it was a gentle breeze. Nothing strong enough to remove a cover at any rate. There are a lot of kids in the area, I have a...

So I woke this morning to find my bike cover removed. It had looked like someone had just walked up and threw up the cover to look at the bike. I am feeling a little paranoid atm and I hope this was not some kind of scouting effort. This does make me think about using prevention measures...

I was thinking buying a 250, or maybe a 650. Out of curiosity I was wondering about a 600.

I am curious, how many km on a bike is considered a lot? I have been looking for a used starter bike and I have seen some interesting choices, but I am completely ignorant of engine life for motorcycles. Anyone have some input?

Congrats man! I will be getting a 300 soon! Not sure if I want the black or the red and black. Let me know how it rides! :)

Checking insurance was one of the first things I did when investigating bikes I was interested in. The 300 was by far the winner with half of the quoted price on a CBR600 (they had no information on a CBR500 at the time). I have also looked at used 250s and they have not really dropped in...

Hello, I am new to this forum and I was hoping to get some advice for my first bike. I have been doing some research and trying to decide what bike I should go for. So far I have been tossing around three bikes. The Ninja 300, Ninja 650, and the CBR500. I am basing my decision based on a...
