竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Sunday, 29-Oct-2023 09:54:54 PDT 竹下憲二 In some ways, I feel like my Ninja 1000SX is TOO easy to ride. It handles really well and the quickshifter does a pretty good job. #motorcycle -
竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Friday, 27-Oct-2023 07:57:56 PDT 竹下憲二 This video from FortNine seems to suggest that Harley-Davidson's mantra of a ton of torque at low revs is actually worse for the drivetrain parts than the high revs of other bikes. #motorcycle

竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Saturday, 14-Oct-2023 09:17:58 PDT 竹下憲二 A Land Rover tried to merge into me on the freeway. Thank goodness I had the oomph, agility, and road space to get out of the way! 👍 #motorcycle In conversation from web permalink -

竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Friday, 15-Sep-2023 08:15:45 PDT 竹下憲二 My dad complains about how uncomfortable his #Harley bikes are for long days of riding because of the vibration.
Maybe Harleys don't actually make good touring bikes. 🤔 #motorcycleIn conversation from web permalink -

竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Friday, 08-Sep-2023 16:14:01 PDT 竹下憲二 You saying you're faster on your #ebike than I am on my non-boosted #bicycle is like me saying I'm faster on my #motorcycle than you are on your e-bike. It's not a meaningful comparison. #cycling #ebikes In conversation from web permalink -
竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2023 07:04:47 PDT 竹下憲二 And anyone who says that #motorcycle riding in the street is dangerous because of cars, they're just saying that cars are dangerous to everybody around them, which is true. In conversation from web permalink -
竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2023 07:04:34 PDT 竹下憲二 I kind of want a two-stroke #motorcycle, but one that has autolube so I don't need to do the premix step myself. In conversation from web permalink -
竹下憲二 (tk@diatom.social)'s status on Tuesday, 05-Sep-2023 18:11:15 PDT 竹下憲二 I feel like most of the statistics that tout the danger of #motorcycle riding come from the demographic of people who typically ride motorcycles: risk-takers. Either young hotshots who "pretend race" on the road, or old guys who have a propensity of riding drunk. If you ride with care, learn good technique, and make good decisions, the risks within your control are much less. The skill ceiling is pretty high and the learning curve is long, but that's what makes it worth it to me. :)
That said, the risks outside of your control (other people on the road, road conditions, etc.) are definitely more hazardous when riding a motorcycle than when you're driving a car. Gotta be on guard and plan accordingly when out there!In conversation from web permalink -
