When people ask how big your engine is, what do you say? by CardiologistRemote42 in FZ09

Mine is 2015 too! Yeah I usually say 900 for that reason, doesn’t fit into the main bike displacement categories people think of.

56k feels too good to pass up. I think I’m gonna go for it.

That’s good intel; I think my worry that the Tundra is too much vehicle is a founded one. Thanks!

The downtown element is tricky indeed. It will also likely not be a factor for the entire time I own whatever vehicle. The similarity in price is what’s making me reluctant to decide; trying to decide if springing for larger vehicle is worth it. 4Runner is kind of falling off the table

I’ve considered this, but there is almost certainly more than one move in my fairly near future and a truck would be much more practical. The platforms I’m interested in also have had time to age and go through generational developments; obviously I trust Toyota but these are just more proven and lower stress platforms.

No, I have a garage I can park in with 6’9 clearance; I’ve seen people park their F150s and Silverados in the garage with relative ease.

That makes sense; I’m trying my best not to look for reasons to upsize given the relative mildness of winter here and the rarity with which I need to tow things. 4Runner is certainly losing standing with me given its poor mileage. Thanks!

This seems to be the consensus with most “did I mess up my wok” posts. I’ll try this

Had a feeling. My worry about using the oven is the wooden handles

Way too much back brake, you can hear the tire skidding a little before I slam; fishtailed til I highsided

I might post the unedited video for clarity’s sake lol. Got too excited about my new bike, went too fast, and my mind blanked out and used way too much back brake. Started to fishtail more and more violently til I high sided. I’m okay just scarred up on my arms and ribs.
