So i just had a sit down with my commander about motorcycle safety
fun time when your boss has a ton of stories about doing dumbass shit

 

Everyone come to kokomos tonight.

 

koko no's

 

dude, i was gonna go, but i got home from the beach at 11... i was exhausted, i could not get up from my couch once i sat down... .... hope it was a good time...

 

Looking to upgrade from my 250. But I'm not really looking to upgrade to a ss or anything. I'm trying to stay in the sport touring-ish class.

Of the sv650, 650r, and yz6 which would you recommend? Or perhaps another bike of similar style that I dont know about?

 

I started on a SV650. Super fun bike, I would recommend it. I can't speak for any of the others though.

 

i have an SV650 ... LOVE IT! its so fun, flicks around so easily, nice torque... Just not a lots of power, but coming from a 250 you'll be just fine. . . the 6r-en doesnt look too bad either, but i can dare to say that the SV is a better bike... There's also the gladius, but its def not for everyone... And of course im talking about nakeds, but they all have their respective faired models, except the gladius. . . . Which is very similar to the SV.. I've heard the SV's brakes are better...

personally, i think the gladius has a lot of potential as far as its looks and being a nice fighter or cafe racer. . .

Then again, you have to see what kind of engine you want... I would straight up pick a twin, but maybe you're different and like more power up on top, or the sound....

 

Yea, I've been leaning more towards the SV (mainly because the other bikes I like are never for sale) but so far, it seems to be the choice. Power isn't a concern at all. I'm not looking for the fastest bike around or anything. Just something that doesn't struggle on the interstate (250 ). And I would prefer a faired model. I'll save the fighter/cafe look for when I lay it down and I'm too poor to replace plastics.

 

Ben fuckiin' Spies
that is all
14 points to go...

 

The posts on crash.net were awesome leading up to DP, kind of had me hyped up for two awesome races. I can't say I'm complaining because I'm rooting for Spies, and he definitely put it on just about everybody, but I was hoping for like a four or five bike breakaway for both races that never materialized.

Great points weekend though, let's go!
