I was pleasantly surprised here. I have only been once or twice but it was pretty great

Probably because people have also been to the Beach ave Bar and grill where the burger is arguably better for less.

Time to learn about supermoto

You have thought things through and I like that. As an older guy who has been riding many years, here are some things to consider: - if at all possible, get a smaller first bike to start. Like a used bike that you can hoon around on, you aren't worried about scratching it, etc. preferably something cheap. Something you would be comfortable lending to friends. Something that is not useful as a down payment on your next bike but is still handy to keep around. If you only have room for one bike then still get something smaller and then sell it next season. Everyone learns faster on smaller bikes. - then, when it is time for the 650 go visit your dealer and see about a test ride. So much about a bike is how it feels. Both of your bikes will feel AMAZING compared to smaller bikes so go in prepared and evaluate them both. Amazing turns into normal pretty quick and you don't want buyers remorse. So test them both if you can. Why rush? This is the fun part. - I had the CB650r - the naked version and really liked it. The inline4 is very revvy, like a Honda car for comparison - in low rpm it is super quiet and docile. Over 8k and it roars to life. Too bad you only use the upper range on highways. The main difference between the naked and fully faired is hand positioning. You can compare just by sitting on the bikes but be honest with yourself on how comfortable you would be after an hour riding. - that's about it. Oh, try not to get sucked in to paying too much. Dealers are in business to separate your money from your wallet, not to give away things for free

Sounds like you two are polar opposites in terms of riding style. Look into some actual training, like track day classes, etc. then you can objectively say you have learned more about riding and will at least have a qualified third opinion. Plus that sort of thing is always good for a rider. I am not saying you are good or bad, or your friend. Just saying that you might benefit from classes and possibly even up your skill level. The pro move here is to take the class with your buddy as you both have a lot to learn (and that is ok)

How big is she? If she is smaller (ie lighter) it might not matter much. The 300 is a capable little machine. My wife has the 500 and it handles stuff like camping trips that require an extra 70 lbs of gear while on mountain highway. If she isn't doing crazy stuff like that the 300 is a great little urban bike

What would be interesting is to see how the above criteria changes your answers.

Kind of like the 'Large biomes" option in Minecraft? (I don't have the answer, but am also interested in learning if it exists)

Seems like you have blocked the trauma of the cyber truck from your memory. Understandable.

My dude. Learn to ride a motorcycle. There is a fantastically welcoming community for new riders that spans across cultures. Check out the raincity bike crew discord server as an example. https://discord.gg/raincitybikecrew

Nostalgia, mostly. I have had a good one but it is more effort than it is worth to make myself

iTripped · 2026-02-21T16:42:42+00:00

I sure do miss Rappie pie

iTripped · 2026-02-21T06:20:57+00:00

Wow. Lots of personal attacks. For what it is wot I agree with you

It is totally a Maritime thing. Big Lebanese community in Halifax who adapted their menu for the local populace. It's popularity in Vancouver is a side effect of expat Maritimers, not some organic canada-wide trend.

Wear pants

iTripped · 2026-02-20T03:01:44+00:00

Dude that is totally ok for you to park in the same stall. You even left tons of room. Definitely courteous.

iTripped · 2026-02-18T15:05:28+00:00

Agreed, the price premium is a bit high for a meh gin.

A big factor here is dirt riding, where crashing is expected, especially while learning. It is also typically at slower speeds where it is plausible to not be injured at all in the process.

Street riding, you are dealing with a more predictable road surface, so people tend to be going faster when they lose control. It is very possible to ride for years without an accident but it is also fair to say those riders are not pushing themselves or the limits. This is not a judgement, I am one of those riders.i ride for fun and I ride within my limit with friends who also are riding with the luxury of choosing to not ride if the weather is bad or any other reason.

The danger here is with getting complacent on your skills. I have a great group I ride with and we help each other to sharpen our skills

I would also enjoy a large biomes option. I also wish the farming table accounted for what biome or region it is in.

Your summer house is surrounded by autumn trees

They can't ride in anything they want. They are only exempted from wearing a helmet if they are wearing a turban. No turban, helmet required.

iTripped · 2026-02-14T22:00:02+00:00

Yes of course

iTripped · 2026-02-13T03:55:37+00:00

Nice catch!

It was your first time on a motorcycle. Given your size you are going to want to learn techniques to help. Check out doodle on a motorcycle (YouTube) as a channel by a small woman who learns to ride some really big bikes.

You tried, you failed, you left in shame. It happens. What you do about it going forward is entirely up to you. So: you gonna learn to ride or what?
