no. I had a guy put an alternator in my diesel van and he didn't tighten any of the hoses so it blew up the first time I stomped on it.

2010 Ninja 250. I can't blame him too much when I showed him the bike before I repaired it after dropping it. He told me he found an undropped bike for a good price so there's that.

Reposting from old thread, got there late.

Hey, /o/.
Bought a Ninja 250r 2008 about a year ago and I was thinking of moving up to a Yamaha mt07 (restricted for A2 ie 35kw).

I loved the look of sports bikes for some time now but I've recently become partial to naked bikes and I've heard plenty of good things about the mt07 and it seems like a good fit for me, but I'm not 100% sure yet.

I plan to use it for commuting into the city across the highway ~ 30 minutes a day, city riding regularly as well as country riding so pretty much everything and from what I've seen it seems relatively well rounded.

Any thoughts on the matter?

mostly, easy to remove.
But even if you're in a very minor crash or a standard police control you get a license and a driving ban and might even have to redo your A2. Plus they can impound your bike.

Or you're lucky and nothing happens. I mean chances are low and it's tempting but if it happens you get fucked hard.

How much should I pay the dealership to inspect a bike and how long should it last?

Cost of labor x hour? Around $80?

Reasons for doing so would be to inspect damage, probably get a quote, etc.

usually theyll do inspections for like $50 sometimes free if you are getting a quote for work.

its a fun bike. next project is to get rid of the bar vibration at high speeds. probably need to get a new handlebar. it's not as bad as i make it sound. if i see a correctable problem, i will fix it if i can. there had to be some cost cutting at play here.

other than that, it's a really fun bike. i want to get some dual sport tires on it.

i rode through a ditch coming home, and i almost didnt make it out, thanks to the slick tires.

Heres the thing, the bikes themselves are fine yes, but it's the elctronics that fail quite commonly on ducatis. And generally when an electronic something fails, it's really tough to get fixed, can take multiple times of leaving it at a dealer etc etc, as long as you have warrenty through dealer you're okay, because newer duc's have so many electronic gizmos, it can really take alot of time

So I just put a new battery in my bike and started it up to run around the block and when I pulled into back into my garage it started reving up like I was holding the throttle. I hit the kill switch and it kept going, so I popped the seat and pulled the fuse for the electronics and disconnected the battery, it kept running so I pulled the plug wires and it still kept running even with the spark plug wires disconnected. I shut the fuel off and let it burn the gas that was left in the carbs and it finally shut off. After I reconnected everything and fired it up again on what little gas was left and it fired up and ran fine this time. Thing is the bike isn't supposed to be able to run without the battery because of the way Yamaha built it.

Think it was carbon build up that caused it to diesel like that? It's an old 2-stroke 250 that I didn't run much last year. Any other thoughts?

It would come with a 2 year unlimited mile warranty from the dealer closest to me. Is this about average? Ive gotten my bikes off of cl, never gotten one new. Havent been able to go for a test ride yet, but im hoping to go in the next few weeks.
>>15028872
Yeah, and id be taking it to the dealer for oil changes and whatever other maintenance issues that would be needed to keep the warranty valid. Which will unfortunately cost much more than doing it all myself.

>>15028923
Yeah 2 yr unl mile warranty is normal, that's up to you man, if its the dream bike and you have the funds to do it, let nothing hold you back!

Considering a new 14 is 15499+freight+fees+tax paying what is a little more than half that for a not even fully broken in bike is falling into my lap. It is easier to afford a bike when I only ride. I do not own a car and so this bike payment is basically your car payment.

It will always vibrate. It's just the nature of single cylinders.
If it doesn't have rubber mounted handlebars you might be able to dampen it a little by adding some.

I could generally get by on dry dirt on mine, but mud was terrible and wet grass could be pretty slick too.

>>15028867
Some of them are, but some are vastly overpriced because of the high demand. The good news is that the bike is almost completely unchanged for the last 16 years so they're easy to search for and find.

R6 still sittin in garage, gonna take it to a shop tomorrow to get appraised. Hopefully it gets totalled out quick and insurance offers me a low price on buyback as a salvage. Frame/swing arm is scratched, forks are bent, and crankcase is leaking oil, so I'm hoping the buyback is cheap.

Bought a bicycle for transportation in the meantime.

I saw some hipster faggot on one of these the other day. He had it all cafe'd out and was wearing an open face with sun glasses. He kept have to adjust something on that side of the engine you see in the pic.

He tried to talk to me at the stop light. I didn't hear him and just said "yeah" he got mad and turned away.
>>
>>15030159
That's good to know. The guy mentioned that they apparently have a *really* good owner support network, particularly in the part of Texas we're in, so parts aren't an issue.

I won't be able to afford a bike for a while, but I do really want to get one when I have the dosh.

If you're lucky they're great starter bikes, reliable and easy to work on.

If poorfag i would highly advise against getting a 250rr unless it is in awesome condition, those bikes have all been to hell and back when it comes to revving on the red line and 90% of them need new piston and rings before you even get going and thats just the cheap things to replace.
