How about a manual non sport bike. Plenty of options. Otherwise you might as well get a scooter
>>
>>15202292
I've owned 3 (NC750, VFR1200, CRF1000L). They're great for commuting through town, especially if the drivers are too psychotic for lane splitting. It's not a perfect technology, there's a definite learning curve but I think it's better than manual unless you want to pull wheelies (in theory, it's capable of it).

I'd definitely suggest a test ride, some people can't get on with it.

They definitely stiffened up the response time with each generation and the shifting is much more aggressive on the VFR than the NC. The DCT on the Africa Twin also accounts for gradient, automatically giving you a lower gear for both up and down hill to assist with acceleration and engine braking respectively.

I need your help bike mechanics.

I bought an 05 ninja 250 last week and it was running fine when I got it, but I fucked something up I think by running it with the choke on full too much. Now it doesn't idle at all without the choke on.

Also I tried to play around with the idle adjustment screw and the bike doesn't respond to it at all. It's turned out all the way and I actually have no perception now of where it's supposed to be.

The bike actually runs OK, it just idles really high (around 2k-3k). Vid below is me riding it today:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8Uiogf1PC8

Any ideas on how I can fix this? Zero mechanic skills and all the shops are booked out two weeks in advance because of the season. I have read that I should just put some carb cleaner in the gas and beat the shit out of the bike by redlining it everywhere and in general being really rough which may help shove some of the gunk out in the carbs.
>>
>>15202536
It took me about 8 months from the accident to the money ending up in my account, pester them at least weekly.
>>
how many accidents have you had while riding? i want to get a bike,but my main fear is ending up on a fucking wheel chair
>>
>>15202697
6, mostly on the 125. Wear decent armour and try not to end up under a truck. Part of the fun of riding is taking a machine that by all rights should murder your ass every time you get on it and taming that smug bastard.

>>15202660
Fuck 8 months? I wrecked my bike at the beginning of may, just sent over the appraisal to my insurance guy(12k to repair, worth maybe 8k so it's totalled).

I hope it doesn't take that long... I miss riding so bad.

Are there any manufacturers that make off-the-shelf boots in grotesquely wide fittings? I'm currently wearing size 12 (UK) boots as the shortest my feet will fit in, even though in length I'm a size 7/7.5. Not idea in terms of actually fitting and offering good protection.
At the moment, the only option I can find is Altberg's custom fitting, which requires me to travel up to Scotland and fork out £600 for the last making + £200 for the boots.
>>
>>15202697
got the license for 8 months, dropped the 125 once while going 30km/h on ice, fell on my elbow but nothing really happened, was wearing full gear
also dropped the CB500 against a wall while maneuvring
>>
>>15202733
Just keep hassling them. Don't simply accept that it's ongoing, ask what's going on at every stage. They fouled up and lost paperwork for everything from the appraisal to the payout. At one stage, I'd argued them up by a grand on the payout then, when the receipt for the payout came through, they'd 'forgotten' all about it. Keeping records and demanding everything in writing also helps.

>>15202697

There are people that just seem to "get it" when it comes to being a good driver and anticipating what other drivers are going to do. I think it's genetic honestly but you can see it when they drive that they are just on a different level of awareness than most people.

Then you have people that don't get it...and decide to drive a motorcycle anyway. These are the idiots that get wrecked at intersections, hit people backing out of their driveways, hit oncoming traffic during canyon runs, etc...

The issue is that even the first category of driver will succumb to user error crashes sometimes. You just make a regular turn and hit a cobblestone walkway (very popular here) thrown in the middle or road snake and you'll slide out and wreck.

If you know you're a good driver then you'll be fine unless you encounter some incredibly terrible luck or the minor user error accident every now and then.
>>
>>15202697
Once. On about my 4th/5th time out, took a corner too fast in the rain exiting a roundabout (poor signage, thought I'd missed my turn and it turns out it was the next one anyway), panic braked, and lowsided. Rode the bike down (DUMB) and slid for a bit so had some nice bruising, but leathers prevented any atual harm. My squishy meat-parts cushioned the bike's fall though, so no damage.

>>15202738
That's 6 times in 4 years over 50k miles. Tamed isn't the same as rendered completely safe.

The GS is a little more dirt oriented than the Versys and wee strom, so depending on how much street vs dirt it may be a better or worse idea. Also if you're looking for cheap go with the Jap bikes, parts and maintenance on the BMW are going to be a lot more expensive. There aren't really any other options for cheap ADV bikes, there's the 650 dual sports but it doesn't sound like that's what you want. There's also the KTM 640 adventure but it will have the same downsides as the BMW along with being a pretty rare bike

>>15203179
scrambler not really. small tank but probably maneuverable. adv bike yes. low rpms, storage and max comfy.
>>
>>15203066
Great steal!. I have a 2003 z1000 with the same engine more or less but fuel injected. I love the zx9. Especially after bakuon!

why are sellers fucking lazy to at least sell the bike with its carbs cleaned?

its not that hard of a job

Have you ever laid a bike down? Unless you're going 10mph your leg isn't going to be under it.

Majority of contact is shoulders, arms, back, hip, and side of knee. That's why knee and hip is where all the kevlar is in denim riding pants.

It's a decent first bike. Neutral riding position, linear power curve, decent top end.

It is a bit heavy for a parallel twin, though, and Triumphs in general aren't as reliable as one would like.

Guy with the 650L seems like a dickhead, and the price is a little high IMO. Also no mention of if it has the dirt wheels too or if he had suspension work done to make it a "supermotard"

Of those two the KLX is the better buy. I'm getting ready to head to work or I'd scrub your local CL.

honestly you will get really bored of a 250 really quick. ninja is better than most, but you can get a decent 500 or 650 for a reasonable price in your budget.

>go for it and spend the rest on nice riding gear not that icon bullshit
THIS.

Get a dirt cheap bike to learn on, and nice gear. Keeps you safe, and having comfortable gear means you ride more and gain more experience. Then, when you move to a nicer bike you already have nice gear to go with it.

how many times did you crash when you were learning? I would rather have a better bike, decent helmet and maybe a jacket than a full dainese one piece when I was learning. In 10-12k miles I crashed once trying to ride my 500lb ujm in a field. other than that, not once.
