When I ride. I always put on full gear. No matter what. My dad who got me into bikes was riding along a road late at night going a bit over the limit. And there was an old Ute in front of him. In a quick flash dad saw something coming at him fast so he ducked. He was rushed to the hospital after some people found him on the side of the road after he fell off his bike. He was hit with a shovel. In his helmet. But he measured where it would have hit if he didn’t duck and he would have been decapitated. It would have hit him in the neck. If he didn’t duck and wasn’t wearing a helmet. My dad would not be here. He still rides.

I Like proper torque figures... they save a ton of time repairing threads & getting things undone again... plus if you have a crush washer on the Sump plug, replace it every time... Don't know if you realise, but Toyota have cardboard washers, that can't handle more than 30Nm, 25Nm is fine, go that little bit too tight and they split and leak, so will rubber seals, paper gaskets and anything plastic or Aluminium! a 1/4" drive torque wrench is your best friend next to the 3/8 torque wrench, but you still can't do without a 200Nm 1/2 inch one, and I have a 340Nm 1/2 inch one too. the SP Tools ones are My favourites. especially as they don't have foot/pounds on them (and they are Orange... I like Orange, I even have 3 Orange Cats, an Orange High vis Jacket for riding, and I was going to have an orange bike but they sold out, so I got a Black one instead! (they come in Suzuki's famous Yellow, a dark Orange, and Black) I also like turtles... and by turtles I mean titties!

Couldn't agree more, 2 bikes that do completely different things is ideal. A 750 ADV and 125 scooter (with 41k miles and scratches with an impeccable engine) is heaven

So I own 4 bikes right now, a z900, a Honda shadow 750, a z125, and a Honda Navi. Other than the super fat cruiser style bikes, I’m currently in possession of near all genres of motorcycle. Sport, cruiser, mini, and automatic. Although the auto Navi was honestly just bought for my girlfriend to start learning, I have put 7 miles on the dash so far and I find it great. I think generally, people that “talk down” to other genres of motorcycle literally don’t know what it’s like to ride them. I live in central Iowa, and about 1/10 of Harley riders won’t wave when I’m on the z900 or minibikes, and I think generally it’s because they simply don’t know what it is like to ride them. I was at a Dollar General once rockin the Z125, and a guy said “what is that?” And I told him it’s a Z125, Kawasaki‘s version of the Honda Grom. I highly recommend it” and he laughed at me, and said “I’ve got a street glide” Their fathers have convinced them that anything smaller than a iron 883 Harley is a girly pussy bike, but if they actually owned A cruiser, and a Sport bike/minibike, and were forced to sell one of them for some reason, It wouldn’t be the minibike. I plan on listing my two big bikes here soon to see if I can flip them for a profit. The minibikes? I don’t really care if I ever turn a profit or break even, I’ve owned one for less than a year and the other for less than a month, and they are both worth more than I will ever have or will put into them. Everyone, start on a grom/z125. Get your hands on one of those and you will forever be one of the happiest lifestyle motorcyclists on the planet. Don’t be afraid to ask your friends if you can take their motorcycle for a ride once you have some miles under you. If you can’t afford to buy them, at least try your best to get a ride on them. I started on a ZX9R and to this day wish I would’ve started on a grom/mini bike.

My response to these "that's not a real bike" types is to ask whether they've ridden their "real bike" from Utrecht to the North Cape and back, because that is exactly what I did on my X-Adv. I've been to Porto (Portugal), Pilsen (Czech), Gibraltar and San Marino and I kind of want to ride to Greece and the Isle of Man. I don't care what they say, I know my adventure scooter looks kind of funny. Especially with the Givi rack on the back and the custom fairing that hides 2 10 litre auxiliary fuel tanks. Luckily the regular guys in the group that I go on group rides with have gotten the message that it's just childish to mock a guy's bike. Heck quite a few of them will message me before rides asking if I can carry their backpacks as their street fighters and super sports have bugger all carrying capacity. I don't mind, I'm so used to riding with that big ol' topcase and those panniers. But it's always funny to see new-to-the-group "real bike" riders being told off by the S1000RR Power Rangers for mocking my scooter.

Been riding 12 years, mostly dirt but at least a few thousand miles on pavement a year. When it comes to squidding, its really not that bad. Its harder than you expect to die from road rash, and thats all that leathers really protect you from. I can't stress enough how important good boots and a helmet are though. A bike will break your ankle if you tip over standing still, and your face can hit the curb going 10mph. I have walked off plenty of road rash, but also wrecked plenty of helmets. Jeans, basically any jacket, boots, and a helmet, and you really wont ever regret an easy cruise. Heck, all said id even skip the helmet before riding in sneakers. Literally once broke an ankle moving a bike inside the garage.

@@ntdscherer not trying to act like thats the only thing to worry about. Its just that in my city i see so many guys riding around with riding jackets, pants, and a pair of sneakers. A broken ankle will ruin your next month while a big scrape on your shoulder just messes up your afternoon. First thing every bike shop always tries to sell you though is a jacket. Gloves, boots; the things that protect the body parts that actually matter on a daily basis though are little afterthoughts everyone seems to forget though. Worst offender is leather vests. I challenge anyone in the world to find a way to hurt their chest or back on a bike more than literally any other body part in a real fall.
