Then why is it every used motorcycle for sale adds are mostly used HD's for sale?
Then why are there few used Honda Motorcycles for sale.

"A" There are more HD's for sale because the economy is bad and people can't afford the payment on a K motorcycle

"B" HD Owners want to trade in their old HD for a new HD but the dealer will not give them a fair trade in price

A bear and a racoon were walking through the woods one day. They came across a genie who was lost in the woods. The gennie was so happy with the directions that the animals gave him that he said to them, "I will give you both three wishes each." He turned to the bear first.
The bear (who was really into ), said, "Ok, ok...I want...All the bears in this forest to be female, except me!" Poof! It was done.

The genie turnned to the racoon. The racoon thought for a minute, and said, "I want a...MOTORCYCLE!"

The bear thought he was crazy, but the genie granted his wish.

Turning back to the bear, he goes, "I wish...the bears in the next forest over were female, too!" POOF! It was done.

The racoon thinks for a minute, and says, "I want a motor cycle HELMET!"

The bear says, "Youi idiot! You could ask for all the money in the world and BUY those things! You're wasting your wishes on JUNK!"

The racoon just shrugged, and POOF!-it was done.

The bear's final wish was, after very little thinking, "I wish all the bears in the whole world (except for me) were female!"

Poof, it was done.

The bear and the Genie look at the racoon expectantly. The racoon got on his motor cycle, strapped on the helmet, and turns it on. He reved the engine and said, "I wish the bear were !" and drives away.
"I wish the bears were G A Y!"

Im 16 getting a permit very soon, working at a summer job and when the summer is over, going to work at a local pet store or grocery store (part time because of school, so ill be getting minimum wage..) By the end of the summer, i will have about 1,300. As you can see, im looking at a ninja '08 but of course thats not set in stone because i am only 16. But I am really dedicated to have the time for it and I am trying to get the money now. My dad said he will probably put me on his insurance, but since it is a motorcycle and I am young, I'm not sure how much the insurance is... Also, I have read 10,000 people say the Ninja 250 is a really good beginner bike, so if anything i would buy a used one. How much would the used bike, insurance, equitment (helmet, etc), and locks for the bike cost in total?

Thxx a lot

I have a 98 Honda CBR 600cc F3.
My rear tire has worn off pretty badly, front tire is still looking okay.
However, I have trouble deciding what to replace.
FACTS

Existing Tires
Front: Metzeler 120/70 Sportec M-1
Rear: Metzeler 180/55 ZR17 MeZ4 Steel Radial

Recommended by the owner manual.
Front:120/60 ZR17 (55w) [like Dunlop D204FK]
Rear: 160/60 ZR17 (69W) [like Dunlop D204k]

I noticed the size different between what I have and what it recommended on the owner manual (I bought it with those old tires).
Now I replace, Should I replace with the exact tire of what I am having which is, again, 180/55 ZR17 Metzeler ?
Or go with the owner manual recommended 160/60 ZR17?
Note, I only have money to change the rear tire.

Can some one mind explaining to me what those numbers mean?
My other concern is, since I am changing the rear tire only. Is it bad that my front tire and rear tire are different brand?

One day in the great forest, a magical frog was walking down to a water hole. This forest was so big that the frog had never seen another animal in all his life. By chance today a bear was chasing after a rabbit to have for dinner. The frog called for the two to stop. "Because you are the only two animals I have ever seen", the frog said. "I will grant you both three wishes. Bear, you go first."

The bear thought for a minute, and being the male he was, said, "I wish for all the bears in this forest, besides me, to be female."
For his wish, the rabbit asked for a crash helmet, and immediately put it on. The bear was amazed at the stupidity of the rabbit, wasting his wish like that.

It was the bear's second turn for a wish. "Well, I wish that all the bears in the next forest were female as well."
Rabbit asked for a motorcycle and immediately hopped on it and gunned the engine. The bear was shocked that the rabbit was asking for these stupid things, after all, he could have asked for money and bought the motorcycle.

For the last wish the bear thought for a while and then said, "I wish that all the bears in the world, besides me, were female."
The rabbit grinned, gunned the engine, and said, "I wish the bear was gay."

i got about 4g's saved up. and im undecided on what to spend it on, either buying a used decent motorcycle (hopefully a yamaha r6) and pay cash, which iv been wanting for a very long time. or spend most of it of the money on restoring my nova to running conditions. what do you guys suggest?

Share This

Short, simple and to the point...

Do I have to be licensed to buy any type of motorcycle from lets say the Honda dealership before I can purchase a bike?

I am trying to buy a CBR600RR nothing more powerful...I was hoping to buy it and then have a friend help me take it home by putting it in their truck or car and then I can teach myself to ride it in our big empty parking lot at work.
EDIT: Ya, sorry I forgot to put extra details in...Don't worry I am taking the MSF Course either this Summer or Spring, because my friends told me it will save me a lot more money on insurance.

I'm a 16-year-old guy with my basic license. I’m going into my senior year and looking to buy a bike, nothing over 600cc. I've been saving my money from part time jobs for the past two years and have saved about 8 grand, after buying my self a car. With gas prices soaring it's starting to seem unreasonable to have a car with bad mpg for my only mode of transportation. I've always been a fan of motorcycles due to their sporty look and great handling. My parents aren't really supportive of me buying a bike, not due to my lack of responsibility or skill, but due to the lack of responsibility of other drivers. They think that if I drive a bike I'm going to pull out of the driveway and get hit buy a semi. I am about to enroll myself in a motorcycle safety course and more defensive driving courses; unfortunately the parents still have a problem. How should I go about convincing them in a polite way to let me buy MYSELF a motorcycle?

A frog leaps out of the magical forest where he has lived all his life and into a real forest. Since he lived in the magical forest he has magical powers. He sees a bear chasing a rabbit and thinks to himself, this isn't right, everyone should live in peace. So he stops the bear and rabbit and tells them that if they stop chasing each other he'll give them both three wishes.
The bear thinks for a second and wishes that all the rest of the bears in the forest were female. Poof, all of them are female. Next the rabbit wishes for a crash helmet. The bear looks at the rabbit wondering why he would want a crash helmet.

The bear thinks for a second making sure he makes a good second wish and wishes that all the rest of the bears in the country were female. Again -- poof -- all the rest became female. Then the rabbit wishes for a motorcycle. Now the bear steps back and looks at the rabbit in amazment. How dumb is this rabbit he thinks to himself. All he had to do was wish for money and he could buy all the motorcycles he ever wanted. This has to be the dumbest creature the bear has ever seen, he thinks to himself.

It is time for the bear's final wish and he takes a second to think and makes sure he doesn't waste it. After a minute he wishes that all the other bears in the whole world were female. And again poof they are all female.

Next the rabbit puts on his helmet and jumps on the bike. He turns around and smiles. Then he says, ''I wish that that bear is gay.''

I'm looking at motorcycles to give myself a graduation present with the money I received for graduation. I've ridden a 50cc scooter throughout high school and want something more, but I only have about 00 and want quality. Is that a possible asking price? I went to a honda dealership and even them slashing the price was still too expensive, but on craigslist there are several older motorcycles for sale at prices much lower than 00. Is it a bad idea to buy a used motorcycle? Is it worse on craigslist? Would it be a better investment to save for a new motorcycle and have guarantees and warranties?

Once upon a time there was a frog who lived in a lake all by himself. He had been given special powers by a local witch. One day he finally ventured out of the lake to get his first glimpse of the world outside. The first thing he saw was a bear chasing a rabbit and so he called out to them and asked them to stop.Then he said to them: "I am a magical frog and since you are the first two animals I have ever seen, I am going to grant you both three wishes. You will each take turns using them and you have to use them now."The bear (being greedy) went first. I would like for every bear in this forest to be female except for me." A magical sound and it was done.Then the rabbit. "I would like a helmet."
This confused both the frog and the bear, but after a magical sound there was a helmet.
It was the bear's turn again. "I would like for every bear in the neighboring forest to be female." A magical sound and it was done. The rabbit went again. "I would like a motorcycle."Both the frog and the bear wondered why the rabbit didn't just ask for a lot of money with which he could buy himself a motorcycle, but after a magical sound there was a motorcycle. The bear took his last wish. "I would like for all the bears in the world to be female except for me." A magical sound and it was done.
The rabbit then put on his helmet, started up the motorcycle, and said "I wish the bear was gay" and took off like a bat out of hell.

I am a new rider of motorcycles, and I have been always wanting one. I have the money to buy a bike now but not sure what kind to buy. I love Ducati, Buell, Suzuki, and Kawasaki. But I have been interested in the Suzuki Hayabusa. I am not sure if its a bike to buy off the bat. If anyone has a good suggestion for a descent bike, good handling, gas, and safety especally with a girlon the back. Thank you

The Bear and the Rabbit
........................................
A bear was chasing a rabbit around the woods, when the rabbit came across a magic frog. He said that if they stopped fighting he'd grant them 3 wishes each "Bear, you go first" the frog said. So the bear wished that all the bears in the wood except him were female. The rabbit then asked for a motorbike." poof, two wishes left." " duh, " thought the bear, "rabbit could have just asked for money and then he could have bought his own motorbike" So bear then wished that all the bears except him in the next wood were female too. The rabbit then asked for a motorcycle helmet, put it on and kickstarted the engine. The bear was shocked at how thick the rabbit was being, he could have asked for more money and bought his own
" Rabbit, your last wish" the frog said. The rabbit said: "I wish the bear was gay", and drove off into the distance.
