beardlessdude: An inquiry before I answer the question: What is your budget |
Re: Is Driving A Power Bike Really A Suicide Mission. by Shagati(m): 12:00pm On Apr 01, 2017 |

dumo1: EgunMogaji: Like EgunMogaji says, the world is wide open with goods and services just a click away. I stock up on service parts/consumables (oil & air filters, brake pads etc) and use as necessary. Other parts are ordered and arrive in one week max. I try not to break stuff too often thus needing emergency orders ![]() PS: Accra trip was in 2012 if I remember correctly; e never reach to upgrade by now? ![]() The K13 is 16-months old with me though 1 Like |

@topic.... not the bike... the rider if the ride is a suicide one. If the rider is wreckless and has no regards for his safety nor that of other road users then should he crash and burn... can't blame the bike. Millionsss of power bike riders are alive and well....and still riding. |

beardlessdude:Believe me it's a suicide mission. I started riding when I was a 19 year old College Student and I have bought more than 10 Powerbikes over the years. I belonged to a Bike Club and we used all the necessary gears. I gave it up after having so many close calls and when I lost two close friends within five days of each other. My wife sold my Ducati that's worth $16.000 for peanuts. Now nothing will make me ride a Bike or being a passenger on one. That's my own personal opinion though. God forbids there's any mishap, there's no defense for a Powerbike rider. 2 Likes |

It is definitely riskier than driving cars but not a suicide mission... |
