Holy crap, you guys won't believe this. Lol, i got my bike back! hahaha, thnx to the 5th precinct in NY. Apparently, some dude was driving it across the brklyn bridge with a passenger and he was weaving in and out of traffic and cut across three lanes and such. Then our friend mr. NYPD came by and s...

yeah, if my salary permits, I'll be picking up a nice new bike maybe next year or something. And I'll go for the big boys, maybe a 600 huh ^_^. Lol I'm getting way to a head of mah self. But lowjack will do me good on my next purchase. I just hope that the rates of lowjack and the mitigation of my i...

Just liability which was like 160 for 6 months. I remember posting once about getting some time of anti theft devices or even a low jack, but people said it was only a 250, they're on the bottom of the list. I guess t hey weren't on the bottom of these guys ilst lol. I would've loved to have put a c...

I had a 2000 Kawasaki Ninja 250 that helped me with my daily commute at approximately 70 mpg pushing 80+ miles an hour and helped me find parking with such ease around my university at brooklyn. However just tonight, some a holes decided to go throw it into a van and run off with it and now I no lon...

I think it's just too small. I've ridden with the helmet for a while now but only the temple's of my head hurt after about 45 mins into a ride. Also, quick question. When you guys ride, does it sort of constrict the blood flow to your hands by any chance? I noticed that after a ride to and from scho...

So today was the first day I took my Ninja 250 to Brooklyn which is about an hour ride for me. Today, the entire highway was blocked off because a car had an accident but luckily for me, I had my bike lane splitting and I was able to get up close and personal to the accident which helped alleviate a...

I commute to and from work on the higway a bout 15 miles or so. I usually go around 70 - 80 mph so I guess it's not so bad. I don't think I'll be hitting triple digits with it easily tho =\

Oh i see. So I guess the consensus is to stay off the clutch while on a curve to stay in acceleration eh? I guess I hold in the clutch until I lean and then I friction point the rest of the way with a maintenance throttle. But I guess that won't do =\

Yeah you see, because for a car, there is no engine compression so I would always hold in the clutch for no apparent reason =\. Actually, to switch gears quickly if ever need to be I guess, but you're right, I guess with a motorcycle it's more preferable to not hold in the cluthc and have engine com...

When I used to drive my stickshift car, or even any manual car for that matter, everytime I brake, I would find my self holding in the clutch. If i needed to accelerate or maintain a speed, I would just go up to the friction point and then release. But then I realized that as I started to ride a mot...
