Hello, on sunday i ll go get my First motorcycle (want tò thanks everyone Who helped me here with their tips) and im trying tò understand if i can park It in front of my house.

I know its illegal but do you guys think Police Will actually care since its not in the way?

The motorcycle Will be in the Place where that White bike Is, the Door in front of It Is the entrance for my apartment.

As you can see my neighbour Is doing basically the same thing in front of my Place.

I live in Osaka in the bay area so pretty far from the center

Just want tò get your opinions on this

Thoughts on Triumph bikes? (Speed 400 or Scrambler 400)

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone

I posted about getting my first bike a couple weeks ago originally wanted a CB400SF but after second though it doesn`t make sense spending that much for a 400cc bike just because its getting discontinued so I`m looking through other options.

Personally I like the design of Triumph bikes and so I`m considering between Kawasaki Z400, CBR400, Triumph Speed 400, GB350 and maybe Ninja 400.

I might get 大型 by the end of next year so ideally I want a bike that holds its retail value quite well (which probably the triumph wont do, so I`m looking at used bikes).

To those who owns a Triumph bike or owned one in the past, how was its reliability and was it a hassle? I will live in Higashi Hiroshima, the closest Triumph dealer will be around 40km so a little worried about servicing and repairs but please let me hear your thoughts/experience

Most Beautiful day of Riding, Saw Tallest Waterfall of Japan (Shōmyō Falls 350m) Arimine Road is paradise for Motorcyclist, 600 yen toll but totally worth it,

Then enter to Nagano area and saw more waterfalls, While back from Lake Suwa, saw most scariest Lightening of my life, as usually hell alot of jam at Hachioji IC,

Day-2 was the longest in terms of Riding day full day was clear and 20 degree lowest,

No access to Hakusan road for motorcycle, tired my hardluck to go shirakawa go pano view point, but guard didnt allow,

lowest traffic, got couple of Shirobai on the way but saved my ass,

Went to other side of the coast, missed the sunset but moonlight make it more worth
