awesome pics on the yami!

So, the vote is overwhelmingly in favor of a bike forum. What’s the hold up? Is it really that hard? It is annoying searching through posts in gen auto that start with “hey bike guys”, not to mention some of the other ones im sure bike enthusiasts may miss because it doesnt have something about bikes in the title :picard:

ahh kind of a dumb question i guess, but it just seems like a huge jump going from a dirt bike to an R1, i realize there were most likely in between’ers but two very diff styles of racing. I wish i started that young! I wanna drag a knee now

I’ve been brought up in drag racing and won multiple trophies as well, but if you put me in a circle track car i’d be like ugh, brakes & turning? whats that?

A lot of guys are pretty careful about who they ride with and with good reason.

Personally, I would be up for a relaxing cruise, but only do a real ride with guys that aren’t strangers to me. To me it’s all about trust in who you’re riding with to not push either you or themselves beyond their level. I’m pretty new at this too and feel a lot more comfortable when I know the guy next to me isn’t going to do something stupid.

jon,., you do know people with that bike… ive ridden the 675, i wasnt a fan to be honest… feels great in the turns, but it sits really high, the seat is really uncomfy, power was decent for a 600, but the clutch didnt allow me to lift 2nd gear wheelies like i enjoy doing… lol, other than that its a gorgeous bike with decent power. (with a pipe they sound weird, in a good way)

I feel the same way, its only my second season riding and I dont want to ride with people that are going to push my limits. I know since I only ride a 250 my limits are low but I’m not trying to push it haha.
