Caught some good advice offline. We went over the footage a few times. She went into my lane when we were both braking. I Swerved. Contact was incidental. Made more of it than necessary for this debate, I think. Edit - video and a second & third pair of eyes have better objectivity than my...

Probably good advice, done.

Crap.

Lightly-used Bell Star MIPS, bought in 2018 as a second helmet. Selling because I wanted a helmet colour to match my bike (vain, I know). Size Medium, fits true to size if you are coming from Arai or Shoei Medium. Excellent condition, never dropped, not a scratch on the helmet or visor. Pads...

600-675 SS = 120-130hp

Sounds like you want to buy used, which is probably a good idea. The new Ninja 400 has been out for a year(ish) and would be a much better choice if you can afford it, over the Ninja 300. From what I read, the 400 has so much more torque, and higher peak HP, while being lighter. The CBR650F is...

It's not an "accident" if it is preventable or a result of carelessness. You don't need malicious intent to be grossly negligent where you ought to have known better.

I agree, my Dad had the original version of the A/S3 on his Lexus, any hint of snow and the tires turned into hockey pucks. Awful snow performance.

You have the original A/S3, not the latest "Plus" version. While the tread pattern is virtually unchanged, they updated the compound and it made a huge difference according to the consumer reviews and Tire Rack tests. The snow traction went from middling, to near the top of the category.

Absolutely, the A/S3+ is now ranked at the top on Tire Rack, both in their latest test and with consumers.

Yes but BMW classifies it as: "LSD: Electronic" It's crap.

I have an eight year old BMW 3-series RWD. I used to have dedicated winter tires for it, but when it came to replace the summer tires I went with UHP All-Seasons and ditched the snows. Why? - I work from home so I no longer need to drive absolutely every day. I can afford to wait until the...

Hmmm, check my post directly above yours... And my first post: 1) Sell 2) Rent 3) Borrow I know the chances are slim for #3. I said "Borrow" in the subject line because... I dunno!

Nah, I'm not that kind of guy... :^) Ideally I'd like to buy a used one if somebody has one that they're not using.

I'm thinking of doing a little vlogging, but I don't want to spend on the gear just yet. Anyone have a helmet cam & mic they'd like to sell or rent or lend for a while?

Agree, and I would add that if you still have problems with a SS then bar options like Helibars can do wonders. They look stock since the change is only 1-2 inches higher but it makes a difference. As for a bike for the OP, I am really liking what I've read about the Ninja 400. Lighter than the...

Very sorry to hear that. Can you tell us what if any theft deterrents were in place?

I'm also in the 50+ club, at 53. I bought a Triumph Daytona last March and it was fine for anything up to 35 minutes or so. Beyond that it was torture on my wrists and back, and my legs got uncomfortably cramped (I'm 5'11"). I felt numbness in my hands that lasted for weeks. I loved the bike but...

I was later than you, I purchased around the second week of September 2017. It's true that you will loose out when it comes to expenses such as insurance, but on the upside the prices in the used market might be lower as people try to unload unwanted bikes. Keep in mind the season is only about...
