So I am a 24(f) and currently making close to 19 LPA (in INR so close to 18K in dollars). I have had my eyes set on BMW 310RR for the longest time and is one of my dream bikes. I felt that with my current salary, it will be a good investment or at the very least justified.

However, I am seeing a bunch of people telling me not to got for it. Either I dont earn that much to compensate for it. Or it will be a long term burden for me and I should get some other bike instead.

Wanted to know y'alls thoughts, Should I go for it or not?

Hi, I've come into some cash and looking to buy a bike 10k or under. Open to anything. I currently have

2004 custom chopper with 117 motor

1983 harley davidson fxr shovelhead

2009 bmw r1200gs with 80k miles

Part of me says replace the bmw with like a 2017 but I love the bike and I just repaired the shaft drive. I'm open to anything even a duplicate of what I have. It's a sickness when you start stockpiling bikes!

Hi , this is a very odd question my bf have gifted me an old dirt bike to ride out with him but can I ride it without license or do I need one?

i’m 18 years old, male and about 5’8 ish and i’m looking to get my first motorcycle that i’ll actually ride.
i have a suzuki boulevard very similar to the savage but it just seems to be too heavy for me and such an awkward seating position to learn on.
i’ve ridden dirtbikes and fourwheelers all my life, i can ride them decently although my clutch skills aren’t the best and i know riding real motorcycles on the road is a lot different than dirtbikes.
i’ve had my eyes on a honda cbr300 or something small along those lines but preferably not a grom or a clone, so what’s the best motorcycle to buy and learn on?

My boyfriend wants to teach my daughter to ride. He tried instructing her on a kawasaki KLX but she said it "felt too tall" and in the end felt discouraged. He insists its a good beginner bike (his dad disagrees).

Coincidentally I felt the same way about the same bike and ended up crashing it into his barnyard fence at about 5 mph via whisky throttle.

Any input would be great, thanks in advance.

Hello, about a month ago i bought a 2006 Honda Cbr1000rr Fireblade, and have been informed that it does starve from engine oil while doing wheelies. Is this true? And where do i get the longer engine oil pickup tube or whatever it’s called?

Can they be buffed out, or something like that? This wasn't from a crash. I accidentally scraped it on a concrete wall while I was carrying it.

What would you say the thickness of these bad boys is? Should they be changed soon?

Does anyone know what type of suit this is?

Or if it was worn in a race? I’m trying to find out as much info about it.

Thank you!

I learned driving for about 3 weeks with no problem but every time I go out we get into a fight, she tends to win the argument. I don't understand her, I have proper gear, I passed the MSF course (permission from my dad), all I need is a license which I can get when I'm 16 which I'm turning into in 2 weeks.

Looking at financing a bike in about a month I’ll have no credit but I’ll have a down payment for the bike, just wanna hear some thoughts on how I should go about buying the bike
Edit: I plan on going for a 26 yamaha r3

I commute across a bridge 1 hours a day round trip which of these is a better bike for that

Was driving just now in Placentia CA and drove past a wreck. Major road with a 50mph speed limit. Looks like a car turned left in front of the bike. No idea who was at fault but either way they had the whole street blocked off with police vehicles, crime scene tape and a rider was under a blanket while his totaled bike was 75 yards down the road, shoes on the opposite lanes of traffic as investigators took photos. Keep your eyes open and stay safe out there. RIP to the rider who passed.

Is this distance a lower crash bar need to take into account？My shoes size is 43，when i ride my bike with this lower crash bar ，i don't have the nervous about it.But my fridend’s size is 46,he think the lower crash bar is too close to his toes , does everyone owns the big size feet has this problem?

My love for bikes started after dirt biking in central america. Then grew my love for bikes, sport bikes, from watching them fly by me and making the rev it gesture to them lol

I really do want a bike, but then I see all these social media creators posting their crashes, some of them with life changing injuries, then there are the less fortunate that have passed away, r.i.p 🕊️
It’s scary, being the most vulnerable on the road

Then there’s other posts that I’ll see and I’ll see comments from different people talking about riding for over 10+, 20+, 30+, years and it makes me feel a little less on the edge

I can get a used bike easier than I could get a new car, which I can’t afford a new car which is why I want a bike. That’s what I can afford for the time being.

Like I mentioned at the start, the vulnerability scares me; how would I adapt to certain weather conditions on a bike? And there’s so much gear to look into. Then there’s the msf course, I don’t know. There’s just so much I need to research and thinking about this sends me into a spiral 🫩

I just want to really know all the pros and cons and if it’d be worth it or not.

Heyy, ich suche den Ducati Panigale V4 Fahrer, den ich am Samstag vor 2 Wochen (12.07.) gegen 19:00 Uhr am unteren Ende vom bekannten Treffpunkt im Kreis SOB getroffen habe.Er kam mit Knieschleifen und Slalom im Blindflug um die Kurve. Ich war komplett geflasht, dass ich nicht mal winken oder lächeln konnte ;) Ich hatte einen roten Body in genau seiner Ducati-Farbe an, dazu eine babyblaue Jogginghose. Dieser Augenkontakt hat mir echt so den Kopf verdreht..Vielleicht kennt ihn ja jemand oder deine Jungs aus der Truppe erkennen dich wieder, meld dich gerne per PN :)

Starting up my bike again today, just taking in the sound of the engine and exhaust. I want to go for a wild ride so badly. The day my suspension is lifted, I'm heading out to explore every corner of Finland

Just got my first bike and put 40 miles in 2 days

Kind of as the title explains, I’m going to be going on a 900-mile round-trip and just looking for any advice on what I should do to prepare before I leave. I’ve already had a full service on the bike a couple of days ago. I’m leaving Friday morning, and it’ll be my first long ride. I’ve ridden in town for almost a year now and put about 1200 miles on the bike in that time, gone on the highway quite a bit, but just never for this long. Pic of bike included (Ninja 500) just in case anyone is wondering what my highway time is like. I’ve been on the highway for 400 of the 1200 miles, but they are strictly old one-lane highways that weave through mountains. Any advice is much appreciated. 🙏🏼
