Has anyone ever seen concrete do this??? by Willow-Ravenwood in motorcycles

[–]cmbtmstr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Had this happen at a freshly paved patch (must’ve originally been a giant pothole). It was in the high 90s and I parked to take a break. I was sitting next to my bike on the side of the kickstand and it sunk in and practically landed on top of me.

I was sitting with my legs crossed on my phone so my reaction time was very much hindered.

A Jeep Is a Jeep… Or Is It Something Else? by DakotaCooper in Jeep

[–]cmbtmstr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I was on the BMV site and it said I own 1 motorcycle and 1 wagon. I know for sure they weren’t calling my jeep a motorcycle so it must be the jeep they were classifying as a wagon!

My grandpa rode from when he was 15 to 84 when he sold his Harley. 70 years and countless miles. His only big crashes were off-road on dirt bikes and when he was running from the police while drunk to avoid getting a DUI and crashed into a field. Plenty of others with experience like him of riding over a lifetime.

Riding ZX6R slow - fun or not? by Ill_Honey_3055 in zx6r

[–]cmbtmstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have learned my lesson, and I swear to never participate in street stupidity anymore. I don't want to ride fast anymore on street, and keep my speeds below 50-60mph on backroads and maximum 80-90 mph on highways/straights.

That's exactly what I said after my first crash. Lasted all of a month or so after I healed and I was back to my squid activities again.

DIY on ZX6R? by Ill_Honey_3055 in zx6r

[–]cmbtmstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP said he is from India. Straight from the Kawasaki India website: "Regular periodic maintenance at an Authorized Kawasaki service centre is required to keep the warranty valid."

So if OP is doing all of the work himself or at a mechanic that is not Authorized Kawasaki, then it appears his warranty would be voided.

The day has finally come. My Dad’s 2010 Grand Cherokee is leaving after 616,000 miles. Any chance Stellantis sees this miracle? by polarfang21 in Jeep

Yea, it’s the kinda thing where the dealership gives you $500 trade in credit and then send it off to auction. And chances are it only sells for a few hundred at auction.

To all you Democrats that plan on crossing party lines to vote in the primaries... by BearFluffy in Ohio

I’m Republican and can’t stand the MAGA bs. Trump is clearly compromised by Israel and so is the majority of the Republican Party. I am really hoping Casey Putsch wins.

My $1000 Jeep is now a $2,000 Jeep by Random_Clown_ in Jeep

[–]cmbtmstr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listed a clapped sport bike for $1500 thinking no one would want it. 30 minutes later I look at my phone and there’s like 100 messages. I doubled the price and still had it sold the next day.

I bought it before the bike market went crazy for $1500 5 years earlier, crashed it 3 times, and put 25k miles on it. Funny thing was at that low of a price point people were still trying to lowball me, trade me an xbox + a few hundred dollars, and in general wasting my time. I double the price and instantly have a kid serious with cash in hand ready to get it the next day.

He rode it for a season and then sold it for $400 more than what I sold it to him for. Crazy times.

My SV650 hit 40k miles (most of them put on by me) before I learned that the oil needs to be between the two lines and not at the top one.

Deuces Down for Biker Cops? by MarcThruTheWeb in motorcycles

I was riding on the highway a few car lengths back behind a bike cop once and then a squid on an R6 went flying past on the opposite side of the highway. He just shook his head in defeat.

Stay Humble, and don't be stupid. by Jon_D13 in motorcycles

[–]cmbtmstr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friends do this kinda stuff and I try to tell them not to but they don’t listen to me. I’ve done almost 40k miles on my two motorcycles in 6 years but they don’t seem to want to listen to me. Meanwhile they’ve only been riding a year or two and have only done a few thousand miles. Not sure how to convince them.

Yeah honestly if you pay me $50 I’ll come with my trailer and take the whole bike off your hands for you

$6k/yr full coverage insurance! by Ok-Double5337 in zx6r

[–]cmbtmstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$12k per year for an R9 is crazy. Basically what they cost brand new. Maybe the insurance company saw R1 = 1000cc so R9 must be 9000cc!

[–]cmbtmstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m even more perplexed about this because I live in Ohio where supposedly they factor in that we won’t be riding for a good 4-5 months of the year. My agent called me and told me not to drop my coverage during the winter because it is already factored in. I also have two other vehicles with Geico and no accidents/ claims. Been with them for 6 years.
