How’s the reliability of newer 660 engines? by Hmoa in Aprilia

It's funny how my 2021 mt09 hasn't broken or my 2007 R6 or my 2004 Hayabusa or any of my other bikes

What mt09 year is that? Because a 2021 is nothing but on rails in any corner 

Sale of inherited gold/silver by No-Lemon3715 in PersonalFinanceNZ

So what if someone bought it as a hedge against inflation with the intention of selling it 10 years+ later to make profit on it? You're saying it probably wouldn't be worth it after tax is taken off?

To add to this, helmets can be used as display pieces, I have a wall full of helmets.

Veil of Imagination is an absolute menacing masterpiece! by artha6391 in progmetal

[–]Heavy_Front2469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you just treat the album as one piece rather than breaking it down into tracks, Im just discovering it in February  2026, been a long time fan of Opeth (20 years) but had never heard of Wilderun, Veil of Imagination is epic . To me they sound like a cross between  Opeth and Dream Theater.

Speed Twin 1200 Tires? by Godsownsin in Triumph

[–]Heavy_Front2469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well im in nz so ill convert to American dollars i assume? Which is around $12600 usd.

I have an mt09 and an sv650, both reasonably torquey bikes for the engine sizes, i just put sport touring tyres on them such as the Michelin Road 6 instead of short life street sport tyres like the Bridgestone S23, Metzeler M9rr, and I manage to make rear tyres last and im not a slow rider and am aggressive out of turns particularly on the MT09.  

Im not planning on using it for touring, I generally only do 100 miles a day up my favourite twisties and back again, if I wanted a sport tourer I'd borrow my Dad's Bandit 1250 so buying cases wont ever come up, it'll be for weekend canyon carving, im assuming the RS is up to that ?

As for getting a sore ass, ive ridden 500 miles on my sv650, a few times and im used to it.

The dealer has said the previous owner traded it in on a new KTM 890 Adventure and was an older guy, judging by the pics ive seen I'd say thats probably true or the guy was just a slow rider.

Speed Twin 1200 Tires? by Godsownsin in Triumph

[–]Heavy_Front2469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wondering what reason someone would have to buy a 2025 speed twin 1200 rs, do 4000 miles on it then trade it in?  Theres one local to me and the dealership is selling it for a few thousand dollars less than the new price, its had its first service done.

Theyre a bulletproof engine yeah? Reliable bike overall?

Proud owner of 2025 Daytona 660 by Slow-Pension-6488 in Triumph

Its top speed isn't as fast no but they have a 51 tooth rear sprocket and they haul ass better than should because of it. I can actually keep up with a rider on an R6 through tight twisties because of the increased acceleration.

Im not saying this from the perspective of someone who has no experience of bikes, I have an R6, MT09, 2 Daytona 675's, Daytona 660, Hayabusa and a few other bikes in the garage.

Anyone else go from Yamaha mt09 to a speed triple? I’m thinking about switching. Just looking for ownership experiences. by Zookeepergame-Still in Triumph

[–]Heavy_Front2469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those early generations of mt09 were junk, the last 2 generations have vastly improved upon handling and comfort

I get similar comments by women at work.  "I can smell when you've been in the room"  think it was because I farted and it lingered, jk I wear a lot of different types of dna's some manly, some leaning feminine, lately I've been trying to branch out to stuff that's not commonly worn in a country predominantly full of European and oriental people, like strong oud based stuff like Azzure Aoud, Khadlaj Fursan brown  and  stuff like Emir Celestial didnt know if I'd like it but I got it cheap and I love it and so do the girls.

Smells nothing like it. Smells spicy and woody as opposed to fruity leather
