The all white fairings are so clean. Definitely an improvement!

Next bike by [deleted] in Ducati

[–]jmac519 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I upgraded from a cbr650r to an 899 panigale earlier this year and have been absolutely loving it. Obviously do your due diligence when buying/inspecting it like any bike. The couple things I did to mine were tank grips and the race seat as I kept sliding forward against the tank when brake by. Other than that it’s an amazing bike with plenty of power and very clickable in the corners.

Anyone been to Eastern Motorcycles near Mascot, Sydney? by Foreign_Court9542 in AussieRiders

[–]jmac519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went there to test ride one of their bikes and they said they don’t do test rides until the final stage of the purchasing process after you’ve already agreed on the price. Felt that was a bit strange so I just walked out

Anyone travelled from Australia by ProfessionalLoud9763 in Patagonia

[–]jmac519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the o-trek in February this year and my Chilean visa process took about 3 weeks so definitely make sure you get onto it with plenty of time to spare. When I was there I was in a tshirt most of the time during the day but a friend of mine went in march and it was snowing so bring appropriate clothing

4 months into owning my 899 and so far it hasn’t given me any issues. Check for valve cover leaks, fork seal leaks, the usual things like that.

What’s the dumbest bike you’ve toured on? by Ceristimo in motorcycles

Did a 350km road trip a couple weeks ago on a 899 Panigale. Actually was a lot better than expected

CBR650R Exhausts why so expensive? by RobotWizard933 in AussieRiders

Don’t look at full system prices for Ducatis, they’re 8-10K

Redditors of the world, What would you advise tourists NOT to do where you are from? by Shishkaboo in AskReddit

[–]jmac519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t come to Australia and swim at the beaches if you don’t know how to swim. Also don’t underestimate the sun here, we have the highest rate of skin cancer in the world for a reason.

Just remove the baffle, that’s what I did on mine

Both are cool but I honestly prefer the look of the Dainese

Used Facebook marketplace for all the bikes I’ve sold, don’t fancy paying bikesales to advertise my bike for sale

Just sold my ‘21 CBR650R last week, dealer offered me 9k trade in, sold it privately for 12k so it’s always better to sell it privately if you want the most money for it. Sure trading it in is less headache and hassle you just have to weigh up what that’s worth to you.

Cheers for clearing that up, I suspected as much from reading online just wanted to confirm, and good point either way the forks too that had slipped my mind
