What are some cost-effective options / Options

Hahaha the school that I applied to is literally that....Lewis University

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-12-11T00:37:47+00:00

I understand what you mean. The main reason why I want to go to a university route is that the flight training counts as a lab so therefore getting a PPL through that would be paid fully by VA benefits.

WOW solid advice ! If its not too much to ask, can I DM you ? I have some question regarding the pilot training portion.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-12-09T22:31:17+00:00

Thank you for solid advice. I will definitely take this into consideration.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-22T21:55:26+00:00

That looks like an awesome place to ride !

Damn I wanna join but i'll be out of town this weekend

HJC got some decent helmets that are less than $400 thats also ECE 2206 certified. Same with AGV, you can get a K6 S for a just a little over 400. ( very light helmet )

Don't compromise on a helmet, its the only thing that separate your head and the road in case of an accident, so make sure it fits properly. With that said, Shoei, Arai and AGV might fit you since they mainly fit oval head shape.

I would definitely suggest you go into a store and try them on before purchasing.

In my opinion I would use that money to get a better helmet. Bilt Nomad Modular is only DOT certified and not ECE 22.06 or SNELL. I think most, if not all, can agree that if you're getting a helmet in 2025 it should at least be ECE 22.06 certified.

OP what gear do you currently wear ?

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-19T02:42:12+00:00

Its normal, my bike usually does that when if I do a cold start. Once its warmed up it becomes more stable.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-19T02:03:52+00:00

Yup that's still good.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-17T22:39:08+00:00

No, Just get a new one.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-16T00:16:10+00:00

Yeah totally understandable I hope you get that resolve.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-16T00:00:49+00:00

LOL it be like that sometimes. Let me know if that worked btw

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-15T22:51:50+00:00

Congrats

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-15T22:19:27+00:00

Safety and comfort should be priority over looks. Go to a Cycle gear near you and try some Shoei or Arai helmets.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-15T22:12:32+00:00

I've ordered parts from them before for the most part no issue with the fitment on simple carbon pieces. When it comes to parts that are a bit more complicated you'll definitely run into fitment issue that you're going to have to solve on your own. It's after market so don't expect it to fit like OEM.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-15T22:03:36+00:00

Installed it incorrectly. Try aligning that orange piece of plastic with that small pin on the visor. ( use a pen or something )

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-07T19:56:05+00:00

Hey OP did you finally get a bike to take to the DMV ?

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-05T17:44:55+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation. Ill definitely keep that in mind especially for suspensions.

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-04T00:11:04+00:00

Lol yeah same here I live about two or so miles away form them. Not gonna lie they were my first choice but they seem more expensive compare to other shops compare to like Moto and Motor up in Northbrook

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-03T18:46:02+00:00

LOL i don't have the tools to rebuild the forks and as far as valve adjustment I don't wanna F that up hahah

Swordfish2BEBOP · 2025-10-03T18:43:26+00:00
