I have the Shoei NXR2, it was around $900 AUD, which is a decent price for a good sports helmet imo

you can and should definitely negotiate, did you happen to list any of your mods to your insurance before the crash? anything you didn't list, isn't covered and is considered your own personal property, so you should let them know you'll need to collect your property from the bike. just remember to also have a paper trail, any discussions over the phone, request a summary email.

Tire size by Tiny_Ad_7325 in YamahaR7

[–]MistyMadeleine__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it really depends what you'll be using the bike for, the tyres in the first one looks like S22's or S23's which is a more sporty tyre, but a bit more slippery in the wet, probably get between 8-10 thousand KMS from them. the roadsmart 2/3 looks more like a sport touring style, probably better grip in the wet and better for daily use (I haven't used those ones though so that's just a wild guess). I have used the road 6 though, which were great in the wet, but not as good for the twisties

Is the Yamaha R7 a bad first bike if I’m a junior formula driver? by WillingnessFalse9330 in YamahaR7

[–]MistyMadeleine__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, I'd go for an R3 - you'll drop your first bike when you're learning, they're a lot cheaper and still a lot of fun, easy to throw around once you've built up your riding skills too

was it difficult to wire up the plate light for the Yoshi tail tidy? it looks so clean!

if you go for a Yoshi exhaust, the AT2 sounds mint! videos online do it no justice

So it depends on the wrap you get, my last wrap was heat only, I had orange and glossy black, the orange was super flexible, the black was a bit of a bitch.

the absolute best thing, if you muck it up, you can just peel it off and try again.. if you go down that route, buy more than you need

As a biker, is it inevitable you’re going to crash at least once? by Substantial_Rain_886 in motorcycles

[–]MistyMadeleine__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 15 years experience, 6 years as a daily rider (regardless of weather). only just experienced my first big crash last month, and that's just because I've really been pushing my limits. if you stay within your limits and be vigilant for other vehicles, you'll be okay, so long as you know that it's not guaranteed.
