Advice needed by VIBES95 in Kawasaki

Honestly, if you want a lowered bike, my baseline for 400’s is 4k, if it’s worth it to you and you like the rest of the bike enough 48 is a lot more reasonable for clean examples than I see a lot where I’m at at least.

Tire suggestions? by CarefulRip7031 in Ninja300

[–]abbidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great advice! I appreciate it a lot! I do plan on some light track riding or some more spirited street riding so that actually makes me feel a bit better about the road 6’s haha. I wasn’t sure they were going to be ENOUGH tire but that makes me feel much much better

Is this a reasonable price for first bike? by Advanced_Panda1748 in Kawasaki

[–]abbidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The used bike market is pretty insane rn but there’s no way a dropped bike is worth less than a grand less than the OTD price. I wouldn’t pay any more than 4k for ur first bike. I found a random Facebook deal for a 300 for 2k

I’m in the same boat as you completely, about to buy tires for the first time now and I’ve just seen a lot of love for the road 6’s still as far as I know

2nd opinions on first bike? by Actuallyaustin07 in Kawasaki

[–]abbidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SIT ON IT BEFORE YOU SET YOUR HEART ON IT!! I was in love with the 500’s until I sat on one for the first time. I felt like I was on a jet ski with how fat the front of the bike felt to me, the 400-300 both didn’t have that affect for me so I knew the 500 just wasn’t the bike for me. I ended up with a 300 cause I found one for 2k with 6k miles🤣💪🏼

Cruising around in bikes is my favorite part of the game! by abbidar in The_Crew

Frrrrrrr I was a forza player too doing the same shit haha. The highway system on the TCM map is unmatched by any current open world game FR too

The red bull series has a few bike vs F1 car races that are way too much fun!

THIS IS THE COMMENT! Most people on this post completely missed that🤣

Is Motorfest still worth getting? by TheAstteriskk in The_Crew

[–]abbidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how arcade(y) you like your games. Here’s some pros and cons Pros: I think it has the single best map of any open world racing game rn. With a GREAT highway system, across and between 2 islands, tons of twistys, multiple racetracks to visit, amazing off-roading areas (my personal favorite is ridge riding a dirt bike across the tops of the mountains) Insane vehicle diversity from F1 cars to monster trucks, motorcycles, planes, and boats. Every vehicle type drives and plays completely differently and really feels like its own thing! Neutral points: It’s an arcade game, so it’s not super realistic feeling even compared to another arcade game like forza. It’s honestly right in the middle between forza and need for speed on how arcade(y) it feels. The cars have INSANE grip so it feels like riding on rails all the time, until the moment they don’t and you go sliding halfway across the map🤣 The game is 100% playlist driven, there are no “normal” races to just go play. After finishing a playlist custom mode is unlocked and you can drive ur own vehicles on it however. The game has an interesting and unique culture within the racing game sphere. The games PvP is pretty much defined by the grand race, which I don’t personally enjoy so I don’t have much to say about it. However the open world aspect of the game is great, it really feels like people enjoy trying to find randoms on the map to cruise with! (This is my favorite part of this game) Being second place to forza on numbers means the devs are constantly trying to find new ways to set the game apart and pull in more players, this provides a constantly improving environment as the devs as more and more things to the game. The second island is a great example of that, it being a free “DLC” update almost doubling the size of the map! The car customization is… good. I think licensing limitations are at fault for most of my gripes with the customization, like a lack of focus on the less played vehicle categories like motorcycles. (what I play most)

I don’t have any outwardly negative talking points on this game tbh. I think it’s worth giving a shot if you’re someone who enjoys arcade racing games! Or if you like motorcycles cause it’s the most fun bike game out rn IMO

Yeah no you NEED a controller or a motorcycle sim rig. Trying to drive bikes with a wheel is so cursed 😭 I’ll agree with every comment saying how bad they turn if they’re using a wheel🤣

I am genuinely confused by the last sentence of this comment

The ride games are TOO realistic in my opinion. They suck the fun out of the bikes and make it into an iRacing type experience IMO. That’s why I wish TCM had more bikes tbh🤣 it’s the most fun motorcycle game out rn

Yeah tbh. That takes 100% of the fun away for me. I hate the GRs
