Q:I almost got hit by a car because my bike took ages to brake.I was driving it at 110 km/h and also the tires are soft because i havent inflated them in years.Im a bit scared to press the front brake hard and the rear brake while ar high speeds usually causes tireburns and leaves a pitchblack mark on the road.It also sometimes starts turning the bike but i release the brake before that happens

Never affected my brakes and I've been riding for 25 years.

Q:im 18 and ive been driving standard cars since I was 14 and in that time with my job i have driving ive put well over 100k miles worth of experience into driving standard. I know every trick to it.when I was younger and rode bmx bikes with friends and whatnot I could always handle myself really well. doing wheelies and no hands better than anyone else ( not that I‘d be doing tricks on a motorcycle but I just have good handeling.idk if that means anything .but would someone like me have a fairly easy time learning to ride a motorcycle?and ive wondered how long does it take yo learn and master knee drags ? seems like it‘d be the hardest thing to do.

Riding--and surviving--has more to do with attitude than with aptitude. A teen-aged non-rider talking about knee dragging looks like a future road-rash victim from where I sit. You will probably learn quickly enough, but your confidence will most probably grow much faster than your real riding skills, and that won't keep you out of the emergency ward for long. Knee-dragging is useful on the track (and I spend a lot of time there). There is NO place for it on the street, and skill has nothing to do with it. It has to do with the variables that exist on the street that are not present at the track: Dust, oil and gas on the roadway; potholes, manhole covers, asphalt patches, frost heaves; curbs, light standards, sign posts, guardrails; pedestrians, children, stray animals, wildlife, roadkill other motorists; driveways, intersections.

Q:I do not have a motorcycle license yet, but I plan on taking the safety course this summer. My dream bike is the Kawasaki Ninja 650 ABS, but I know its a terrible idea to start out on a 650cc. The drivers school that I plan on going through lends you a 125cc while you are in class, but going from a 125 to a 650 is suicide especially since I wouldn‘t consider trainers school actual road experience. My mom has a 2004 Kawasaki Ninja 500r and I think she might let me ride it if I go through drivers school, but she still will probably tell me to ride a 250 first. I checked Craigslist for a CBR250r Honda and the cheapest I could find one for was $3,200. I can‘t see myself purchasing a trainers bike for that much money especially since I do not have very good sales experience and probably would not be able to sell it back for much. What are my options as far as working my way up to a 650. I would consider purchasing a 300 ABS but I‘m too worried about investing in a bike that might not be my dream bike.

Get the trouble codes read to find out why. Asking us to guess which of the many possible codes are set on your car is a fruitless endeavor. This is why computers store trouble codes, to TELL you where to start your diagnosis rather than asking for wild off the wall guesses.

Q:What is the meaning of the brake of two wheels?

I used nearly two decades of motorcycle, only know that the brake is the brake system.

Q:do trial bikes have a conventional clutch operated by a lever on the handlebars, or is it a centrifugal clutch? also how many speeds does the transmission have? and as far as the brakes go, where are they located? it just seems like it would be really hard to do the things they do on trial bikes with the same control setup as a normal motorcycle

trials bikes have a hydraulic clutch , located on the handlebars, but only require one finger. ( 'cuz its hydraulic). one of mine is a 5 speed, ones a 6 speed. they have disc brakes front rear. hydraulic also, requiring only one finger on the front. the controls are the same as a conventional dirt bike, (with the exception that the shifter is further forward to prevent accidental shifts) but much more precise. only the 50cc bikes have a centrifugal clutch.

Q:i need to know if anyone know where i can find motorcycle parts(2002 suzuki sv650), it ws invovle in a accident and so like the brake pedal needs to be replaced and a few other things, but the pedals is something hard to find and at a reasonable price also even if its to pick it off a broke down motorcycle same brand of course.

A 2002 is probably too new to find in a salvage yard not already picked over by the repair shops. You may have to tough that one out at retail price.

Q:I live in a cul da sac. One of the neighbors bought a motorcycle this summer. It is really loud even when it is just idling. He goes for a ride after work or on weekends. But he lets it idle for two minutes but the exhaust is so loud that it seems like forever to me. At 7:15 am on Saturday morning he fires up the bike and it woke me up. I wanted to sleep in. I hate motorcycles.

It must be one of those stupid farting Harley's, I cannot stand those bikes, it seems like attention seeking moron's who wear beannie helmets ride those. Real bikers wear proper helmets and don't need a loud bike as they know how to ride in the first place. What you could do is leave a note saying that you have a baby and that the noise wakes the kid up. The moron's who ride those loud nasty bikes usually put them away once the cool weather comes about.

Q:what brake pads did you use?

sinted double h are the best all rounders

Q:Do you think 12,000 miles is a lot on this honda, i mean in terms of buying one with this amount of miles on it, all the gaskets and necessities have been changed and runs great, but do you think the mileage might be too much???

A motorcycle is no different that any other piece of equipment that has an engine depending on what it is. 12,000 miles on a garden tractor for example would probably make it unfit for a junk yard. 12,000 on a car and it is just getting broke in. As far as engine wise 12,000 on a cycle is nothing more than 24,000 om a car. You can figure about double in comparison to a car. What will kill you on a cycle is the rest of it. The sprockets and chains for example. Check the tires too 12,000 could be ready for tires and just because they are 1/5 the size they are NOT 1/5 the price! Condition of the bike is a lot more important than the miles. If the bike is clean and looks taken care of I would buy it in a second and wouldn't think twice. However I have seen bikes for sale with 5,000 miles and I wouldn't have them given to me.
