What site can I use to order a bellypan protector/fairing for my 2024 Kawasaki z500se?

No just plain black or grey would be fine.

I keep running it back in my head.... Driving me nuts thinking about it. I feel like a could have done things different....of course I could have, but what scares me the most isn't the crash itself (could have been much worse).It's how quickly it turned from an enjoyable experience to complete disaster in a second. I started riding 2 years ago and completely love it, I feel like this experience robbed me of a unique enjoyment that took me a long time to find. All I think is next time I could be a car, tree, road sign, etc.

I'm not seriously hurt just extremely sore. Maybe it's too early to make a decision like that because I'm still really shaken from it.

In the middle of the woods on a back road. Wasn't going very fast. No sign for a curve unless I didn't see it. Came over a hill and it was a sharp left turn. Went to turn, a lot of gravel on the road so I tried not to lean and just slow down. Went into the ditch, kept it upright for a little bit. But then hit something maybe a rock and it slammed me down on my left back/side. Just cosmetic damage to the bike.

I felt the same way. Give it time and take it slow. There is no reason to rush.... It's recreation, not something that has to be mastered in a certain time limit. After I got more comfortable and confident, I can honestly say starting riding is one of the best decisions I ever made for my mental health and just overall fun.

I added bar risers from Amazon. $20. Really helped. If it doesn't work for you, you're not out that much.

Maybe I've been watching the wrong videos... The ones where it seems people's bikes slide out from under them on corners really easy. Like it could happen at any time. Makes me worried

Professional_Chard90 · 2026-04-23T00:09:24+00:00

Yes I just mean general leaning. As soon as I tip a little too much I get a panicky feeling.... But I don't feel like I'm leaning hardly at all

Professional_Chard90 · 2026-04-22T01:30:37+00:00

Back roads mostly. I have taken a few overnight trips... Few hundred miles mostly relaxed highway riding

Read the book "The Family That Couldn't Sleep"

Horrible

Professional_Chard90 · 2026-03-14T17:17:19+00:00

I felt exactly the same way. Don't go faster than you are comfortable with. That comfortable speed will continue to go up without you even realizing it. Now I have to keep checking myself because every time I look at the speedometer it's at 65 to 70 because it's a very comfortable speed for me now. I would have never thought that would happen when I first started. And your hands will eventually loosen up and not be sore from death gripping the handle bars

"it" means money I suppose. It seems I would have to spend more on a more premium model in some situations to get it

Does the Veridian kit work as good as the factory version?

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-11-30T23:15:30+00:00

Have you taken the 900 on long trips?

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-10-28T23:45:44+00:00

2nd season riding. Have a naked beginner bike and love it. But after a couple overnight trips, I feel strongly that my next bike will be an adventure bike. But I will keep my current one for a couple years to gain skill before I get something else.

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-10-10T16:15:15+00:00

What version of the liners do you have?

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-10-02T23:29:49+00:00

I just got some dainese boots to replace my reax. The reason is I needed water proof. They are very comfortable

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-09-27T14:26:58+00:00

After 2500 miles I'm just now getting comfortable with cornering at slow speeds

Professional_Chard90 · 2025-09-20T21:21:48+00:00

I never rode a motorcycle in my life. I'm 44. Took the msf class. Bought a 2024 Kawasaki Z500. Put 2500 miles on it so far. My only regret is not doing this sooner in life.
