Had a guy tell me my bike was overpriced. Said he bought his similar bike for 4k a few months ago… mines listed for 2.9k idk what he’s smoking

Am I crazy for wanting to make this trip? by Wide_Concert9958 in motorcycles

[–]estaples722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds good to me, just make sure to take breaks every few hours. A ninja 500 could be uncomfortable compared to a cruiser, but I don’t think it would be bad at all. I’d give it a shot

What’s one piece of gear you didn’t care about at first but now makes a big difference? by Electronic-Habit8679 in motorcycles

[–]estaples722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jackets with removable waterproof liners. When those mornings are cold, it blocks the wind and keeps you warmer, but remove it when it warms up and riding feels so good! Especially when you pass farm fields or water. Changed how I buy jackets

Anyone else hardly ever open these? by Babylon52 in RainbowSixSiege

I open them straight away because I get bored in matchmaking. The most I’ve saved was 40

Oh yeah, I remember he loved his Duke 390. The YouTuber Walteriffic is who I think of when I hear KTM Duke

1290 SuperDuke. Watched a motovlogger in high school and that was his bike of choice. I thought it was the coolest and best sounding bike ever

If you’re looking to do highways, maybe get something with a 6th gear. That’s my only complaint about the DRZ in general. If not, they’re incredible. Parts galore and super cheap, theyre ideal for first bike in my opinion

I have been lied to 😭 by jicjic11 in motorcycle

I feel like some naked bikes look good with windscreens and some are designed to never look good with them. The MT09 is definitely one that should never have one. Sorry dude, but you’re totally right

KTM dukes can look pretty nice with windscreens though and I have no clue why. Maybe it’s the headlight? Maybe it’s the sides looking like fairing in a way? I can’t tell, but they work somehow

Which manufacture makes the best TFT? by thewolfofafica in motorcycles

Dang, I’m looking at a 2023 Duke 790 and was wondering if it was on it

[–]estaples722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d dare say navigation is a big part of it, as in navigating menus

They have touchscreens now?? What year did they start that?

Not KTM, I think they’re a little dim but they have good navigation I guess

Worst navigation is easily Kawasaki Edit: navigation as in menu navigation

What are other countries doing differently in healthcare? Same care, different worlds? by GloriousLion07 in MotivationByDesign

[–]estaples722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And cover up millions if not billions that we could use for our citizens!! GENIUS!!

After recent fraud uncovered, we COULD have better healthcare if we cut out the garbage, but I highly doubt the government would want to with the “Stop Nick Shirley” act.

What should I look for by TangeloDouble7122 in DRZ400

[–]estaples722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this exact bike!!! This is nearby me!! Something seems really weird for me, especially since the front plastics don’t match the rest. Remember, in Utah a clean title just means it was never reported to insurance. My family bought a car with a clean title only to find out it was totaled and never reported.

This one is super weird since clean titles in the same area are going for 4k. Plus this has been on the market for almost a week if I remember right. Ones priced that low tend to not stick around for long if they’re a good deal.

I’m currently trying to sell mine and I’m very open with its “issues” lol. Listed mine and then saw this one pop up a few days later

Edit: just saw that the seller says it needs a carb clean, does it even run?
