When I read your thoughts, I think your heart chose a Pani. No doubt, buy one!
About that crackle, does it only happen in first gear. I haven't heard it in other gears. Or is it just that my revs aren't dropping as low?... when you come off the throttle and use the engine to slow you down you will be rewarded with a back crackle which is awesome.
I've had it in second, but no other above that...of course I'm still on the break in, so no high revs just yet.About that crackle, does it only happen in first gear. I haven't heard it in other gears. Or is it just that my revs aren't dropping as low?
Lol hey fred how did you manage to hack se7en,s profile I'm starting to like you more and more you devious ******* please can I be one of your minionsYou don't need either bike. Get a used Ducati and save a ton of money...or a scooter. Seriously. If you will rarely get over 60, then what's the point other than looking good while going slow? Not trying to be mean, just saying the obvious.
well they do say that its fun to ride a slow bike fast rather than riding a fast bike slow:wink2:You don't need either bike. Get a used Ducati and save a ton of money...or a scooter. Seriously.

Not harsh at all, actually excellent advice. For someone who primarily uses a bike for "basically commuting 15 minutes to work on 30 and 40mph roads", the ideal bike is a scooter or a small dual-sport. I use an XT250 yamaha (fitted with screen, tail bag, sheekskin seat cover) and it is excellent. Cheap to run, great turning cycle, light, sit high in traffic, big 21" front wheel to roll over sunken man hole covers, etc, etc.Sorry, I didnt mean to be harsh. Just trying to help a brotha out with honesty, ya know. 0![]()
