    Just wanted to say @50Buck is a class act guy. He absolutely refused to charge me fuel or transport fee for bringing me this bike; at a seven (7) hour one way trip. Of course, I was not going to let that happen and made sure he left with something (although it was hard, as I only knew so much of what he enjoyed)

    It could help if your hitting "pot holes" and the bike is wanting to dart. Getting suspension sprung/valved for you would be a better start though too if it isn't already.

    Don't get me wrong I love my damper and it saves me a lot. Just depends on the riding.

    I think I have talked myself out of just about every bike available right now. The only one that I like out of all the new ones is the 2025 zx6r krt . It’s the only one I like the looks of and has a decent electronics package. You can get the non ABS model also. The GSXR needs a refresh BAD along with the DRZ400sm. I am sure 2026 line up should have some changes coming.
    I wish someone would buy the FZ1. I have it down to my bottom @ $6500 . Maybe people are being responsible like me?? Lol I know it will eventually sell so not really worried about that. Just gives me more time to save money.

    Spring time it'll get snatched up. Nobody wants a bike this time of year.

    Fair point, but weather is a factor for lots of us.

    I'm good with my one bike. Though I will likely shop for gear, but I'm losing hope on boots.

    This is a good time for buyers. Lot of sellers needing cash before the holidays.

    I watched one a while back where 5 or 6 buddies all took them on a camping trip in Montana(maybe). Looked like a blast.

    Moving to Vegas….
    Think i need a bike to rip down those desert highways (across the Mohave not in town) any rec’s for a good first bike under $7500?

    i used to love the idea of the husky svartpilen for around town but now i am thinkin that thumper won’t have enough power for the Vegas situation

    Hey guys! Been away for a few weeks - went to Japan for a two week vacation and just got back yesterday. This has probably been the longest I haven't ridden my bikes in a while. Considering a track day this upcoming weekend if I can recover from the jet lag fast enough.

    The 701 would probably fit that bill pretty well for a first bike
