Quote from S14 DRIFT :Nice bikes

(Ty for the input Tristan o.o)

Unfortunatly the legal law requires that I am only able to ride up to 125Cc on the CBT licence, before I go about doing my big bike test.

AAhhh yes, sorry but I forget the governing by different countries. :sorry:

I assume they feel it's safer to hit something on a small motorcycle and less damaging than on a larger motorcycle but it's the body that suffers from the impact as the motorcycle does not feel a thing. 150km crash on a 125 must hurt as much as on a 1000.

Thank you for the compliment. Enjoy your riding but treat every driver in 4 wheels as if you are invisible to them, because you are! They always tell the police they never see you coming!

I can only assume you weigh less than 57 kilo's and shall be satisfied with no real power. An 250cc will save you money over the course of ownership and be more fun to ride or race.
I've only been riding for 40 years though so I'm too old to play with anything less than 1000cc.

My old ride. 99 VTR1000F


Current Ride. 04 FJR1300


Show us pictures when you get your new ride.

I've been riding and racing on two wheels since I was 12. A LONG time ago now... (38 yrs)
I don't advise anything smaller than a 500 street bike. Just not enough motor to get out of trouble with traffic on busy highways.
Based on your age and size you'll be very happy with the performance and handling of the new Kawasaki Ninja 650R. This is the twin cylinder model not the racing one.

Also, the Suzuki SV650 is hard to beat with the "V" Twin cylinder arrangement it will have more real life tourque than the Ninja with it's parallel twin. They have been around for about 10 years with many upgrades and improvements. A good used one would save some money and still serve you well. Both machines will give you plenty of thrill and economy.


My current ride is a 2004 FJR1300.

This is a wireless mouse correct? Get a wheel or try a Wired mouse next.
I really don't see how anyone can enjoy this SIM without a WHEEL. It's just not the same.

We are NOT racing real life. Takes a sponsor to do that.
We are just racing on computers and it's more fun to be able to complete league races EVEN if we make a mistake or are on the butt end of others mistakes.

Quote from 666MePhIsTo666 :Hey guys, kind of new here... I just bought my G25 a few days ago and now i'm a bit worried about something...
Tonight i played like 4 hours nonstop (yeah, mental) and the wheel started to heat up... Got pretty hot and the force feedback got much lighter, sometimes no FF at all.
I'm worried cause i don't know if this is normal...
What you think? Thanks in advance, and sorry for any bad writting.

You could turn DOWN the force some also.

Thanks you for your efforts. Very nice program.

It may be me but I have not found how to zoom in on the track on this version yet. Any tips?

In that picture, did you set the ASA to 200 (the lowest that camera will do) or just leave it in automatic.
I've been thinking of picking up a D40X for a while now. Prices are getting better each month.

Just keep searching Google for better deals.

Quote from Tweaker :zzzzz

There is going to be a CHAMP CAR race in Las Vegas... season opener in APRIL 2007.

looks like this:



This is true. And nothing is said about F1. This is Champ Car turf.

This is today's news.

That's the old downtown area. Should be interesting but hard to watch much of the action. But that's common for city road courses.
A GP in Vegas will depend on if Tony George and Bernie can come to terms or not.
