- We're finally gonna need a car where we're going.
I was surprised there wasn't such a similar thread yet, given the fact there's quite alot of bikers around here.
I'm guessing we could use this to chitchat about motorbikes without having to open a new thread for every little thingy.
So, I'll start off; I've finally decided to work on my bike licence. 6 May is the date of the introduction, and the day a 150kg bike will fall on my foot/leg for the very first time, and you know what? I cannot wait!
I've also been looking into beginner bikes, rules in Dutchland say you cannot hang on to a bike that exceeds 25kW (34 BHP) until you turn 21. So far I have looked at some used bikes of which; Honda CB500 and a Shadow VT500, and a Suzuki Bandit. That said, I'm sort of moving away from the Bandit as it has 4 cilinders opposite to the Honda's mentioned above. Between the VT500 and the CB500, they look very similar performance wise. So I'm left with the choice, do I want a naked bike, or do I want a chopper?
If you do not want to answer my question P); use this thread to discuss anything bike related that doesn't deserve it's own thread!
