I'm currently riding an EX5 Class1, and I'm also looking to buy a Naza Blade 250 in the near future. But I have a few lingering question about sports bike and its owners. Please pardon me if my questions sounds a bit silly.

1 - I know for a fact that sport bikes owners don't store their helmet at their motorcycle when they park, and they don't put a Givi box behind the bike as it will not look good. So, when these guys park their bike, do they carry their helmets wherever they go? And how about their riding jacket, do they wear it all the time? Or they have to carry a bag where they can store the riding jacket and the helmet.

2 - Do they wear the knee & elbow protector, jacket, and riding boots every time they ride the bike? Or it's an overkill to wear it if I just want to commute to work. Can I wear a pair of running shoes when I ride? Will it make it harder to change gear, as the material of the running shoes is softer?

3 - When they buy stuff from the shop, how do they carry the stuff on the bike? Do they just hang the plastic bag at the bike's handle? Or do they bring a backpack along every time they go out.

4 - The motorcycle parking at my apartment is roofed, but not totally protected from the elements. If there's heavy downpour for example, my EX5 will definitely get drenched. Is it advisable to buy a sports bike with a parking space like that? Will it be bad for the bike?

Thanks for the answers. You own a Blade 250R too right kapalterbang?

1 - Hahaa.. It's like a swan on the lake. On the surface, it looks cool and poised, but underwater, its feet are paddling like crazy. But you're not tired of carrying the full-face everywhere you go?
2 - Is the gear paddle so easy to shift that you can wear slippers to ride?

And another question, how often do you wash the bike? Do you wash it yourself, of you send it to a carwash. I ask because I never wash my EX5. It's for the built-in anti-theft function for the bike (it is to make sure the bike is too dirty/ugly that no thief will be interested in it )

Pity la our bike, to have owners like us, hehehee.. But we sayang the motor by servicing it on-time and taking care of the mechanical parts instead right?
