    When I ride. I always put on full gear. No matter what. My dad who got me into bikes was riding along a road late at night going a bit over the limit. And there was an old Ute in front of him. In a quick flash dad saw something coming at him fast so he ducked. He was rushed to the hospital after some people found him on the side of the road after he fell off his bike. He was hit with a shovel. In his helmet. But he measured where it would have hit if he didn’t duck and he would have been decapitated. It would have hit him in the neck. If he didn’t duck and wasn’t wearing a helmet. My dad would not be here. He still rides.

    I completely agree with having 2 different types of bikes. I have my ninja which I dont care what anyone or any numbers say I absolutely love the thing. And I have my duel sport enduro. The option of a different type of ride just makes motorcycling so much more enjoyable. And really fun is what it's all about. Two bikes also made it possible to finally get my wife into riding now 😎

    My first bike is a 1982 Suzuki gs750, completely torn down and rebuilt into a café racer over the course of 7 months, and cost nearly $4,000 to boot. I learned so much about wrenching though. From hand set bearings, to wiring harness, I've done just about everything myself.

Learning on my 92 750 nighthawk for the past 2 and a half years has been amazing. I can't wait to rebuild it. It needs a lot of love. And yea I still even wave to the little moped dudes, they get so excited where I live it's great lmao

    That was a good laugh because there was so much truth in it. You just earned a sub! But my first bike was a 1973 CB350 so "light" was not in the equation, it weighed nearly as much as my new R1250GSA... I am seriously looking at a Triumph street scrambler as a 2nd knocking around bike though. Good point on doing many things. Ride your ride and have a blast!

    I only use a torque wrench on sprockets and wheels, but I have been a mechanic all my life I have learned how tight I should tighten something if it is in aluminum or steel and what it is made out of. Also I agree with multiple bike, I have a 15' KLR650 that was set up for street and distance riding that I have swapped over for more dirt and trail(I changed the tires, that is all) and a 19' Z650 that I got for the street(the reason the KLR is for dirt and trail).

    Totally agree that you should have at least two different types of bikes in your stable. I have a 2000 Ducati 900SSie as my go to fun ride for carving up (loose technical term borrowed from youtube, I'm 67) twistees and a 1993 BMW R1100RS for those days I want to do 300km+ for coffee. And carve up some twistees cause we don't have straight roads in NZ South Island. I mean one is German, the other Italian. Two completely different types.

    for talking down on smaller bikes, i'll generally discourage people from buying sub-40hp bikes as their first/sole motorcycle, but once the bike is theirs i will only say good things about it. basically i only talk down on prospective/theoretical small bikes. and my habit is due to living in CA where with the exception of a niche cases in LA/SD/SF, then freeway travel will be necessary and most cars drive ~80mph on our freeways while being completely blind to riders so it's a safety thing for me.

The argument basically went like this "blah blah blah, doesn't have clip on, blah blah blah". I just told the guy that I just consider anything with fairings to be a sports bike, and I just consider liter bikes to be supersports. I don't even own a Ninja 400/650, but it sounded like the guy just wanted to talk down on anyone that's riding more street practical machine then what they are riding.
