Kwasaki Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Had my ride out today, all good the bike is like clockwork, 85 mph is a nice steady speed. I have 6 gears set up motogp so I ride like, 1st move off down to 2nd, then double shift 3/4th, then double shift 5/6th. It works so good for me anyone same or do you always just go through all gears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randell Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Sounds good Kawa. But made me smile at my situation CBR 150r I have wring the neck of it to even get 125 kmp and that only occasionally. Its fine with me not really complaining but between my fat ass and small CC's I loose sped usually dripping in to 5 it just wont sustain the rpms But I am quite content to do 90 on the highway and considerably less elsewhere. But cheers just hearing 85mph is a nice steady speed gave me a grin I can tell you thanks man. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could sell your 150 and get a CBR250R at a small extra cost and it would be more relaxing they do a 100 in comfort and 120 easily for overtaking, a bit more if you're up to it. I don't go full speed on my bike I just like it to have the power there if I want it, it's not for everyone I know. My bike at 75 & 85mph just has a nice purring sound at 5000 rpm.

I full intend on doing that Kwasaki. But life has intervened at the moment . Just have been diagnosed with stage 4 Lymphoma and will be having the 3rd of 8 IV sessions on the 30th and then 3 weeks apart. So it is taking all my strength, time and money at the moment. But a very high likelihood of a good to best prognosis. So for the time being still quite content with my small CBR. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The older son mechanic/machinist handled the job in about 1.5 hrs. Piece did not just bolt on, Tricky mod. Lath work for some stand-offs,&c.. Nice install, B300., so... ... ordered a skid plate from a maker in Chiang Mai. Meant for KLX230, but will make it work on Lifan-200 D/S: Lazada 1750baht.
