- picked it up for a steal too from an acquaintance, barely paid over 3K, clean title, 29KKM, 05, yes the bike has been down before on both sides, but light scratches, original fairings. no cracks, and now I wont feel bad if i drop it (knock on wood)... Quote:

3 of my friends started riding on...
-R6 as first bike
-Gixxer600 as first bike
-848 as first bike
But yes, for the whole duration of the test ride my head was like (HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT upshift upshift upshift) looks down... I only revved to like 4000rpm on 5-10% throttle lolol....I think I got up to 70km in 3rd, never went into 4th or 5th during the test ride lool....
After getting insurance...
Gonna wait for clear Saturdays early mornings and find a deserted area and just try to get the basics down (so different from the PRS learner bikes)...

Anyone can die on any bike, it’s up to you to be safe and know restraint. This is more bike that 90% of riders can handle or take full advantage of, so just be respectful to the engineering and you should be fine

Better photos to come soon, I did a thing today!!
Wasn't quite the ND2 Miata I wanted, but the S2k community has been awesome.
Dealing with a 2nd gear grind when cold and the 3rd gear bump, some minor cosmetics to deal with but should be ready in time for summer!
If anyone knows of a set of Ap2v1 wheels for sale, holla!

So this frigging bike was on my ass for almost 4 hours on a trip from Revelstoke, right to my bloody garage!

And this is an fz-07...an extra 200cc would be crazy!

I rode a CBR1000RR for a few months before I bought the MT09 and while the CBR obviously would have been faster, the MT had so much more torque it would try to go over backwards in 4th gear at highway speeds. It honestly got old quickly as you had to position yourself so carefully and even if you were up on the bars when you shifted 2nd to third it would try to dump you backwards at 100mph.
It was a bike that NEEDED electronics to ride safely, and mine had no traction control no abs, no wheelie control, not a single electronic. Sketchy as fuck.

Picked up a beater 2004 R53 Mini Cooper S for when it's safe to visit my folks in Vancouver again. Not looking forward to the BMW bullshit this car comes with.
