I kind of feel like motorcycles aren't as exciting to me as they used to be. I enjoy them as a form of transportation and prefer them to cars, and will still use them to go longer distances more quickly, but I feel comfortable with my skill level on the street so I don't get as excited anymore.
Maybe that dual sport I got is the key to getting me into the sport again. Need to join some novice groups so I can improve my skills with a safety net. 🤔 #motorcycleIn conversation from web permalink -

One pedal driving in electric vehicles reminds me of engine braking on motorcycles, which is much more effective than engine braking on ICE-powered cars.
The issue of the brake light not turning on when using the braking functionality, which can result in getting rear-ended, also reminds me of how #motorcycle riders often get rear-ended when engine braking without also at least turning on the brake lights.
The motorcycle case is why I usually at least lightly apply the friction brakes when engine braking, unless it's to maintain speed when going down a steep hill.In conversation from web permalink -

Glad I'm figuring this out while I still have the energy and years to pursue it. #motorcycle https://diatom.social/url/2109 In conversation from web permalink Attachments

I feel like the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 would make a great starter #motorcycle.

Feels like most cars pander to the lowest common denominator, while motorcycles target enthusiasts. #motorcycle In conversation from web permalink -

Bikes with inline-4 engines are super easy to ride at slow speeds. #motorcycle In conversation from web permalink -

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 In conversation from web permalink -

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

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 -

Finally learned how to use a "normal" #motorcycle stand for doing work that needs the rear wheel off the ground. 👍 In conversation from web permalink -

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
