2.5 years and 48k miles on the truck.

About 80 hours on 525 the in the 18 months I've owned it. I don't look at mileage.

 

I bought my truck with 35k in September. Now it has 41k. In the summer, I only use the bike, unless it's raining. And I live 5 miles from work.

7k/year is a lot for me. I usually do 2500-3500 per year.

I bought my bike in December 2013 with 0 miles, now I have 7500. 2.5 years later.

@CanisLupus we are going to ride distances this summer. Lol

 

And Kawasaki is coming out with a competitor. I think its the Z125

 

I'm about on par with you

Matt

 

Yeah I plan on riding this bike hard and because of that I'm going to make maintenance a big priority.

And I plan on racing for fun really for now. But I still want to be competitive and do the best I can.

I rode it just a bit and it so weird/cool compared to a four stroke. It's like " ting, ting, ting..." then you barely get on the throttle and it revs like crazy!!!

 

How big is this thing? It looks the size of a honda 70cc dirt bike...

 

Pretty small. I'd say that's a comparable size.

 

I would feel like a dork riding something so small. I don't get it lol.

Anyway. Saw this on the funny pic thread....

 

But you said 4k since you bought it.....how is 4k on par with 7.3k?

 

...because I've only had it for 8 months

Matt

 

Looks like this funny pic i saw

K I'll go back in time and get the bike earlier

Matt

 

DO IT

 

31k on the truck in the two years ive had it. average 6k on bikes.

i dont like the redesign. too flat faced

its a 125cc

cant knock it till you try it. its fun riding something so small and nimble even though it isnt fast. like a gocart

 

it was fun riding this.. but when everyone took off, and I was stuck doing 50.. not that fun. When we pulled up to the bar, I was definitely the coolest guy

 

Feel like my legs would be in my chest. Maybe for a short stubby guy it's fun. But I've got super long legs.

 

I am 5'11" this was pretty small. Its a CB350 and lowered too. I dont have it anymore, but it was fun while it lasted. I think its a little taller than a Grom

 

well yea i wouldnt suggest trying to ride a grom with sportbikes unless its in town. but itll do decent with supermotos. or just ride with other groms. just something fun, everyone i know who ive convinced to ride one has enjoyed it.

not at all. im not short and stubby. 5/11 and proportionate id say. pretty comfortable to sit on

 

I see. I'm like 5' 11" but almost all legs lol. Still could never see myself riding one.
