That's some serious MacGyvering right there. Still stupid, but impressive nonetheless.

Reading over the specs it's slightly larger in every dimension, except seat height is lower, fuel tank is smaller and it's 5 pounds lighter. The power output difference is interesting, down 43hp but peaking at 8750 instead of 14500, and up 5 ft lbs at 6500 instead of 10500 on the R6. I'd be...

so you think it was a set up?

sorry to hear about your crash, I'm glad you are in good enough condition to start stripping it down lol. As mentioned by @mimico_polak keep an eye on yourself, after my accident last year I felt "fine". I told my boss I needed a few days, ended up being 5 months. I hope your friend is doing...

I'm excited about this bike. No, it's not an R6 and it isn't meant to be one. But for the person who wants the look and feel of an R6 but doesn't have the experience to handle a machine like that or the insurance cost this will be great for them, especially if the R3 isn't enough bike for them...

I saw the Svartpilen version in person the other day, really good looking bike very unique.

I did that once, I was amused that the guy behind me was pointing, shaking his head and obviously saying wtf, but then my helmet smelled like an ashtray and I was no longer amused. :sick:

Well that's a pleasant sight first thing in the morning, let me just push my breakfast aside lol... I remember seeing a picture once of someone who was wearing a peanut helmet and did a faceplant off his bike, his jaw was ripped clean off. So my answer has always been and always will be full face.

Welcome to the site and to riding! Like others have mentioned, proper gear is more important than the bike you choose as your first. Smart choice to start with small displacement but the ground doesn't care how many cc you have if you inadvertently meet it up close. Be weary of ordering...

Wait what? Did they actually crash into each other?

I wonder if the placement of Marilyn's mouth was strategic or coincidence. Sellers other ads are gold, too. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-sport-bikes/st-catharines/motorcycle/1561445984?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios&utm_medium=social&utm_source=ios_social

Wonder if the cop could stop laughing long enough to write the excessive noise ticket.

I know what you mean about the alpinestars gloves...Ive had trouble with fitment with them before. Just bought a pair of Revit Arch gloves and they fit perfectly. Fortnine.ca has them for 85 bucks right now.

I've handled lease and finance transfers, not sure which brand you tried with but some will only allow it to be done at the original dealer...which is stupid imo, sometimes it's inconvenience or client just doesn't like the dealer. Some need the file transferred to allow other dealers to do it...

What do you mean didn't even want to bother?

Few choices in the 8k range if you want a bit more leg room...vstar 950 or Bolt, Vulcan 900, Boulevard 50 maybe a 90 if you find a deal. Lots of older Sportsters in that range, too. None of them will feel quickish compared to your cb650 though.

When my VFR800 was written off, the adjuster asked if I had receipts for the upgrades...I told him no, I had bought the bike like that. Come to think of it, I don't recall them asking if it was modified when I signed up. The payout was more than I was expecting, and the upgrades never came up...
