So you think you want a motorcycle? (9 Viewers)

[quik.]

staying clear of hyosung tbh, reg rectifier made me lose faith

It's also a common problem with p much every honda ever

If you get the cb400 / motard I would like a slut thx

 

[runoutofsleep]

haha yeah i thought it might be written off

congrats new bike time

 

[Azamakumar]

idk how its a write off, daddys going to ask for mechanics report
its just epic plastic damage + a couple of levers
fuu

 

[Riet]

Just fix the levers and remove the fairing. Hyosung street fighter you pussy.

 

[Azamakumar]

ahahahahah daddy just came home

options are:

1. replacement bike, title is the same as the first one (ie financed). no choice of dealer but choice of colour

2. insurance pays off amount up to agreed value of bike (7.5k) off the contract and we field the rest


guess i'll be back on a hyo in a couple of weeks
red bikes
go
faster

 

[runoutofsleep]

didn't you say the forks were bent or something? idk

either way loads of plastic + levers handlebars lights mirrors etc etc + quite a bit of labour i would imagine

would add up pretty quickly

 

[John McCain]

graney etc, is a xr400 comparible to a drz400 because i do have an appreciation for good power delivery and torque

Yes they're comparable.

You compare them and the XR is worse. idk, never ridden them like wolliemc, but it loses on paper racing, lots less power than the DRZ.

Such a shame because the XR400 motard is much more my style, but you can't actually buy one because I'd be sad about what I was missing.

The difference is probably negligible if you only ride on the dirt, old XR's are kick only where DRZ's are electric, that alone is priceless.

save a bit of money and get something that needs a little love
like snowfox except not buy a complete pos

Hey it works now.

 

[yuri_gagarin]

See now i would much rather that xr than a hyo 250, so much fun

 

[quik.]

So many bikes, so little money
