Just went from a HD to a spyder RT Limited. Took one on a test ride and it was just like my Skidoo. I was hooked at that ride. Having a lot of fun riding again with very low stress about balance. Here’s a good one I found. If you want to avoid n obstacle on the road and it is too late to steer around it, aim for either foot and you should pass right over it.

this guy supposedly trains new riders but can not even operate a clutch properly? What a squid? just rode one of these bikes and didn't notice any difference between it and over a hundred of other bikes I have ridden. Clutch action is actually quite nice as it typical of KTMs
@leeridefar 9 күн бұрын
Lawerence I have 50 bikes and this one stalls the easiest. When training new riders having the bikes with the easiest clutches helps a lot. The KTM was fine for more experienced riders but harder for newer riders. I want to make the experience of learning to ride, the easiest it can be.

Just did the math on the mpg based on what you said (20 liters will give you about 200 kilometers) which translated means 5.28 gallons will give you 125 miles. If you are right about this then it actually sucks big time because you would be getting only about 23-24mpg. I get better gas mileage out of my VW CC R-line!!!

It is very slow to react. It’ll take a few minutes to change. That said if there is any UV reflected anywhere it’ll stay slightly dark and on cloudy rainy days it will go dark.

All transition lenses of any kind take time to transition. The helmets with drop down shaded visors allow for instant up and down. That is great for tunnels.

I'm sorry, but those wheels are just butt-ugly They look like oversized plastic lawnmower wheels. If they were on my Ryker, I'd immediately spray paint them anything but white.... I hadn't ridden anything for well over thirty years, before I bought my 2019 Ryker 600 last month. My "instruction class" was picking it up about an hour before dark on a chilly evening, and avoiding freeways by riding it almost a hundred miles on rural back roads, twisty mountain byways and city streets to get it home. Not the most fun way to learn, but I guarandamntee the lessons will stick with you....

The rims are not for everyone but it is an old school rally design. Training on three wheels is limited everywhere but thankfully they are relatively easy to learn. Especially with previous experience with anything that has a twist throttle

@@leeridefarah i c. Cool. Next time u r here you should get on the roads around Sydney. Check out Macquarie Pass which featured on Donut Medias list of roads you must drive before you die and the Jamberoo Road down to the beach is also nice. I also recommend Sea Cliff Bridge to Royal National Park which has stunning views. And Old Pacific Highway which takes you towards great beaches on the Central Coast. Theyre quite good conditioned roads that are really twisty and Old Pac has a lot of double apex turns which prepare you for turn 2 at Sydney Motorsport Park. And the last section of Putty Road near Newcastle is said to be the best for motorcycle practice but theres no iconic landmarks to see there and it is far so I havent been there.

My tips for anyone thinking on getting a Van Van: This is not a fast motorcycle, this is a motorcycle to go slow and enjoy the view. It can totally handle rocks and off-road, mud, sand... It would surprise you. But dont over inflate the tyres! Talking about tyres, swap them for the Bridgestone Battlax Adventurecross Scrambler AX41S. They're so much nicer on the road and off-road than the Dunlops. It doesn't have ABS and the rear uses a drum brake, so go to a parking lot and practice some emergency braking with each brake and both to get used to it. Really, do practice emergency braking. And finally... Have fun 😊
@leeridefar 2 ай бұрын
