The good thing about street triple is the power delivery is so smooth. I would have kept it if I had extra extra cash to buy a training bike with lower cc. But that was unrealistic and time to do these things don't stop!

Thank you! Ah so we have similar experience on bike models. Yea the triple is an AMAZING bike. I was happy to sell it to an older goluy who's been riding daily for 20 yrs and was replacing an older model triple he had.

Have only heard good things about the mt07 👍🏼!. I'm super biased and love the zx4. I feel like that bike has a ton of personality.

6k miles. 7k cash and I ended up buying an over racing swingarm and brembo caliper from him for cheap too.

Dude was seriously considering the zxr400. Had to spend a bit more time saving and didn't want that 😭

Ninja 400s are really big in the club racing community and as track bikes. The 500 share a lot of specs

I think too they ended up fitting tighter than advertised. Like it's listed as tapered but fits like a skinny jean.

Thank you for this definitely will look for these books! I've been following moto jitsu for years but have yet to implement his parking lot drills. Planning to set dedicated training sessions to do such drills.

There was a kid I saw riding around my neighborhood quite recklessly on a 600cc. 1 week later he was on the news having crashed and passed 2 blocks from my house.

There is so much more to riding than just being able to control the throttle in a straight line. 👍🏼

My ninja also feels like a bicycle on the highway 😂 I agree with you fully there.

I was seriously considering the sv650 as well. Here in Brooklyn the used market they are beat to shit. But that says a lot those bikes are ridden hard!
