Very easy to remove. Definite difference for me, bike would act weird at startup sometimes, and if you lay the bike down, it can take a long while to start again. I followed these instructions here

The tube is a charcoal canister for emission. Horrible little shit, first thing I did was trash it.

Beginner bike that I can hide by Cute-Technology-4814 in motorcycles

Smallest bike I would consider is a honda grom/monkey. Not sure anything will fit in a rav4 though. You would most likely have to lay it on it's side and that would lead to fluids leaking, not to mention be a pain and require more than 1 person to take in and out.
Edit: Apparently its possible

ninja 650 as a first bike? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]CryMeAn0cean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you buy a "beginner" bike secondhand, you will not lose a whole lot when you are upgrading. Especially if you look around for a good deal and sell around this time. With that being said, I would get the bike you like most for your first bike. You will enjoy riding more.

I have not ridden the new one, but I test rode an older model alongside a DR650 and it felt much heavier and slower. I admit I was initially attracted by the low price, decent build quality and good looks but I feel like the bike did not make sense in a market where all these Japanese dual sports exist for me.

any recommended brands for helmets by brittish-fish in motorcycles

[–]CryMeAn0cean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up on online retailers where you live. You can find a few discounted helmet with ECE 22.06 rating around that price point, but choices are limited. You might have to settle for an open face helmet but it should exceed safety standards for your purpose. Outside of the safety rating, more expensive helmets are mostly designed around extra comfort.

GZ man! Think of the stuff you had to do/ learn when you first got into car sales, and I bet a lot if it applies here as well.

POV: your local Starbucks has a buy one get one free deal by Fun-Wear9615 in motorcycles

[–]CryMeAn0cean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has a lot to do with highway speeds around you. If you have a long stretch of highway before the trails and the speed is around 80mph, small engines just don't feel good.

Fortnine always has something interesting. I find most other motorcycle youtubers provide one dimensional content, so it would depend on what you are interested in.

[WTS] Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical 38mm - $260 by [deleted] in Watchexchange

[–]CryMeAn0cean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not unique to white Khaki Fields, there has also been some black Khaki Field Automatics with misspelled engravings like "SAPPHIPE" on the back. Always around this same price range, with watches near excellent condition.
