First year rider. bought 25xxx 2002 ninja 500r. now at 30xxx.

Same on my bike. 2002 Ninja 500. Happens proportionally more with the amount of eyes on me.

Also just joined. HalfClapTopCheddah Up on the east side of Lake Simcoe.

Mine does the opposite? Saw it at half once, when it was idling for quite awhile. After riding for 30ish minutes, it's at ~1/4.

Another small town guy here. The one set of lights to leave town I have to turn left on (easiest way. Could take sideroads but they're in terrible condition). Light never works for me. Been running reds.

I've had the same thing, almost word for word in the second paragraph, but replacing the situation. It was for a car that seemed too good to be true. Which I guess it was.

First year rider just putting out my thoughts. I'm a young 20's rider, started with modifying my cobalt ss. It moves pretty good, but I'm done modifying unless i want to get a shop to help me. Figured a bike would give that excited feeling that the car at WOT does, at a lot less cost. Haven't...

I actually don't even have my bike insured yet... But, my insurance company said $150/month right now (age 24), but next year it will go to $65/month. Just as clarification for vague answers and the range you can get.

Yes the battery was charged overnight before dropping it in the bike. I've since taken the battery inside for winter. Does it still need an occasional charge, even though it will be inside for the next 2-3 months? I also want to clean the carb, change the oil, change filter, probably change the...

Do you have a link to the show? I need full equipment and would love to get into the bike community. Is there a how-to area on cleaning the carb / valve adjustment? I would like to do lots of spring maintenance on the bike.

haha yeah that's where I got it. It wouldn't start yesterday, so the owner bought a new battery and we installed it today. Needed some loving and starter fluid but it fired up. Tried again after taking it home and it still has trouble starting. I'm assuming it is the -15C weather? Either way I...

Finally got a bike. I shall revive this welcome thread from a year and half ago! Below is my bike being transported in my truck. By chance, the previous owner painted it flat green, almost the same colour as the truck. Looking forward to posting on here more.

^ Thanks! I am also wondering if bikes tend to change in prices throughout the year? I am just wondering if buying a bike in the Fall, but not having insurance on it would be a good idea? Do the prices change much come spring time? Again, used sport 500 bike in the 2-4$ range.

It's not the insurance thing at the moment. I'm planning on getting my M1 and M2 this fall and purchasing a bike in the spring. I figure I might as well start getting the license sooner rather than later because insurance with M2 would be cheaper than M1?

I read that in the motorcycle handbook thing from the ministry. I guess I'll plan the motorcycle course within the month that I can move up the the M2.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum, and to bikes. I've been researching a bit on what bike to start with, insurance rates, and the legalities. I've been reading the stickies on this forum, and I want to say they are incredibly helpful for someone new to bikes such as myself. I'm most likely...
