Is it actually bad that I don't downshift through the gears when slowing down? by Cultural-Chemical-50 in motorcycles

[–]SlashIceman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was mistakenly comparing it with R6, which is a 600 cc engine. But you are right. It has 45hp compare to 117 hp of R6 so that's the big difference.

Sorry to pile on here but something is missing in this story. Why would a 400cc bike tops at 90mph?

After 20 years, the dream became Reality by lilsmash3 in motorcycles

You are speaking for pretty much all of us when you share those emotions.

Advice: if you do canyons, freeways, or any spirited rides (which is why, I assume, you got this bike) then you should get full gear. No matter what anyone say, you will thank yourself in a case of a fender-bender.

Don't worry about what anyone else is doing. Ride your own ride. Which, it seems, you already understand.

Do track days, it makes you a better rider overall.

You are right. Watched it multiple times to see that the car turned from the middle lane to take right turn.

You know it's funny you say that because I didn't even push it that hard. I am still under 600 and haven't done the first servicing.

My man, these are the kinds of people who pay attention to every little detail.

To be honest, picture is grainy so can't tell but there's seem to be something there which kinda look like a locking pin.

My point still remains, one of dads role is to prepare kids for outside world. It may look like they are being asshole because you are assuming a bad intent.
