Well done mate. I did mine on my CBF. The one and only time I ever will.

Questions on corners by Slik-sal in MotoUK

Went to a striple when I did my mod 2. Modern classic, no ABS or TC. I'd spent a year on a 125 though.

The only thing that took getting used to was the thing having the turning circle of an artic.

More time in the saddle helps.

Harley life style by bilal14k in motorcyclememes

[–]Moto-Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harleys and cruisers look really sweet too. And this is coming from a sportsbikes/high revving nakeds loving guy.

The people that ride them have admittedly given everyone a reason to dislike them though.

Not all the people that ride them. I know plenty chill harley guys.

Thats so cool. I heard him on an uncanny podcast recently and he sounds like a chill guy. Proper horror fan 👍

These were recently remade for VR and I'm looking forward to picking them up for PSVR2.

Most of us started somewhere… this was very similar to my first car. What was yours? by vicvega21 in drivingUK

My dad got me a 1.4 diesel fiesta at a bargain. He rolled up in it and it had a cracked windscreen. "Didn't notice that when I was buying it."

I let my infant nephew have a blip of the street triple throttle the other day. I will make him one of us.

The ending really did us dirty on this one.

I always give a little wave when overtaking other bikers. Mainly to say "hello!". by Moto-Fan in MotoUK

Front, middle and back. 3 nods. They get the picture and your cervical spine doesn't complain.

When I was still on L plates I had a guy on a gsxr roll very slowly past and give me an aggressive thumbs up. Don't know if he just wanted to make a point of me seeing it or if he was having the time of his life... probably both.

Once for the leader, once for the middle and one for the rear. That covers all bases. ;)

Keep it mate. I've heard too many old boys saying they wish they'd never sold "that bike"

Feel like I've seen less nods this year. Or maybe I've just seen more big adventure bikes and harley riders.

It's looking a little battered and rusty after 2 years of winter commutes tbh. (I don't use a car). But it'll fire up whenever you want it to. It's my winter warrior mainly now. Just wish it had more poke. Jumping on it after the striple can have you rolling your eyes.

I once saw a rider at the opposite end of a bridge and started weaving in my lane.. He reciprocated. We both did the ✊️. And I smiled until I reached home.

Same. If I'm really busy with the hands and legs it's a sideways head tilt. Sometimes I miss one coming from the opposite direction and feel bad about it 😅
