sportsbikes aren't really designed to be ridden casually, they're meant for fast

...

Autists like to categorize things so they flip when they see a sportbike being used for grocery shopping.

>reee you're doing it wrong you're meant to use a harley for that!

Ohh another thing if you are going to check them yourself, dont look up what the clearences are supposed to be beforehand so that your measuring isnt biased by them

They're not as bad as people make them out to be. They can be troublesome when theyre first being worn in, so that's why if you buy one I would recommend getting one with at least 10,000 km on it. I would also recommend getting at least a 2007 and newer because an 07 has newer updated gears that apparently are much better than the old ones. Mine is an 06. Basically you just need to really be on top of regular preventative maintenance stuff, and you will likely have to do it on your own since there are not many places out there that know how to work on them.

How else can you ride with two of your best friends on one bike?

>relative tire wear would make it look like you had massive tendies if you rode gently every other day

no it wouldn't.

chickenstrips don't matter but I find this argument even more bizarre, tyres don't become unused, if you never touch the sides again after a track day they will be coated in a shredded rubber.

How do you people even come up with this shit, what is it based on? not reality surely.

I mean, I get that. But what, you can't go to a restaurant or something on a sportbike? I always took my Aprilia into the city because it's so much easier to park.

I don't have that many friends user
