QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Sep 14 2023, 09:07 AM) Useless poll.. hahaha... hehe, maybe a poll like "how many bikes do you want?"Moto boys where can settle with only 1 bike? Each bike style for each riding style. So it depends on what and how we ride. Street, naked, or scooter Highway , ADV or sport touring Off road, kapchai with knobbies. Personally, I have no preference. Sportbikes are nice but getting too old for the ergos. then, name them in the comments I'll probably "sportsbike" everything then again, for practical reasons I'm looking at XJ6, SV650, Versys (a bit too heavy I fear) This post has been edited by alexei: Sep 14 2023, 09:12 AM lowpro liked this post

QUOTE(lowpro @ Sep 14 2023, 01:12 PM) Yup, that's my SV up for sale. It is an X so it comes with the sportbike posture but without a sportbike fairing. Someone asked me if it was possible to convert it back to a non X model...I told him it would not make financial sense and better instead to look for a used non X. People buy the X for what it is. the 'reluctant sale' belongs to you?I've been drooling at it for a few days now.... but, why? lowpro liked this post

QUOTE(lowpro @ Sep 14 2023, 06:28 PM) A few key matters but my job doesn't allow me much time to ride for now so I might as well let it go to someone who can appreciate it better. It has just 7700km on the clock. For a bike registered in 2021, that's quite low. It is a 2019 bike by the way. I'll get back to biking for sure in about 2 years. Till then I'll take short rides if I feel the urge on my brother's bikes. that's the exact cafe racer model I likeis it easy to carry a pillion? I notice it doesn't have the grab bar |

QUOTE(lowpro @ Sep 15 2023, 09:04 AM) If the SVX has been sold, I can still take my brother's Dominar 400 or CFMoto 650GT or R25 plus, he still has the Naza Cruise 650 and other weird bikes. dude, sell your brother, keep his bikes.... you do know the SVX is limited units, right? then again, a bike is a bike, someday better ones will come along when time is right |

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Sep 20 2023, 11:57 AM) ADVs are indeed popular. But for those that actually do go off road, we know better to go with something lighter and lower. Besides there is a significant ADV tax on the bikes. GS masuk Rimba RaidThose big GSs are mainly used as highway mile munchers, and great in that role. Or perhaps the big bike ADV demographics are different from the ones in this forum, both in size of our wallets and size of our stature. I for one can't see myself trying to muscle a tall 260kg, 150k bike on the soft stuff..... lowpro liked this post

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Sep 20 2023, 03:43 PM) Got finish? Machiam all DNF leh. I don't even wanna look at it, for many reasons haha, doesn't mean those who got it are wrongHahaha. Not to throw dirt on the GS. it's an immensely capable bike. But not for me. I neither got the skill nor size to handle a machine of that size. Tomorrow go checkout the CBR hope all goes well And yeah, I check the gearing of D400 and Duke 390.... it's geared to max at 140, wth lah. lowpro liked this post

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Sep 21 2023, 09:04 AM) It'll do 155. Buts that's not saying much. Definitely needs a rear sprocket downsize. I'm running 3T down. Top speed now is about 165 without my panniers. thanks for the numbers... is that matched against GPS?Good luck on the CBR hunt. CBR to replace my 2 stroke, more comfortable, heavier, with box |
