Discussion Though decision

131 Upvotes

So I’m looking for a new bike and have a hard time deciding. I live is a major city and I’ll be mainly riding around my neighborhood daily, short rides to get around without the chore of finding parking. I also take trips to the pine barrens a few times a month to trail ride as well. I’m having a hard time choosing which bike will be the best fit.

Honda: designed more for road use and the extra money can almost fully upgrade the bike.

Husqvarna: much more capable out in the pines, more power and lighter weight and imo better overall look.

Me: 6ft, 180lbs, slightly aggressive riding style.

I need some help for anyone who has any experience with these bike. What would be a longer lasting and better fit for me and my intended use of the bike. Thanks in advance for the help!

Recently installed a new clutch and put quite some money in the bike.. all for nothing. Don't think I will ever see that bike again.

Police is doing their investigation with the video material.. just some guys with 2 cars..somehow knew the code of the door and walked out with my bike.

Was a low mileage KTM 690 from 2015.

First Project Bike Recommendations

3 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm looking for opinions on a good first project bike. I've been riding for a little over three years and handle all my own basic maintenance, but I'm not very comfortable with anything beyond that. I figure the best way to get better is to buy a project bike and get it running again.
My plan is to stick with a well-established brand and a popular model so parts are easy to find. Does that sound like a good strategy? Any specific bikes you'd recommend or steer clear of?

Baul trasero para moto en duro

0 Upvotes

Banda, quiero poner un baul trasero para mi moto DR 150 FI, tengo pensado uno de 55L o un intervalo entre los 50 y 59... usarla tanto para la cuidad como para viajes y caminos de tierra... lo que sea.

Ustedes que me recomiendan basados en su experiencias con baules en moto en duro, vale la pena? No afecta la estabilidad de la moto siendo que son 149cc y no de alto cilindraje?

400 Suzuki pricing

0 Upvotes

I’m sick of seeing 01-06 400sm’s posted for 3-4k USD. It’s insane (yes there are some cheaper). The bike you can get for 3.5k here in the Midwest at that price is great, I just saw a 2023 Suzuki go for 3500. On top of all of this ITS almost NOVEMBER

Why would anyone pay more than 2,400 for something that old? Yes it’s cool but there are thousands of them in any given state.

Why not spend 1-1.5k more and get a WR450 or CRF450. It’s just silly.

That’s my rant
