A 10r is a ride to play with. So is the EX250

 

Hello everyone! Hows everything going? Getting closer and closer to Thanksgiving! Still riding, temps are dropping a bit more every day, figured I would give another update and let everyone know im still alive lol.

Anyways, Nearing 3,000 miles on the 250. Can't believe i've put that many miles on it in just 60 days of owning the bike, and thats with me working all the time and not riding it to work! I have some odd rattling comming from the front of the bike. Sounds like around the instrument cluster. You can hear it from 9k-10k rpms regardless of gear, which so happens to be 70mph-75mph on the interstate. Its not terribly annoying, but its noticeable. I don't think its hurting anything but im trying to get it into the dealer to get it checked out. Otherwise the bike is doing great!

I just put a thousand dollar payment on her and I am left with about $2k so it will be paid off a little later then expected, but unexpected things come up. Like girls >.>; Girls like bikes. Who would have thought?

 

(Mouse, just stick with the bike; longer lasting performance for the dollar.)
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who rides in chilly weather!! Good luck on the rattle. They can drive you crazy trying to find them.
Gear up. Stay safe.

 

LMAO when I read that "just stick with the bike" i about died. That **** was great. However you now owe me a new keyboard since I spit soda all over mine

 

I think they're "wired" with German ECU's from the "factory." Very expensive, completely irrational schematic, and prone to short circuit or a capacitor dump at any given moment.
You're young; you'll learn.

 

buwaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhaaaaaaaahahahaaaaaa!! Yeah not sure about that one . my first was kind of that way. But im sure there are some good ones out there. This girl im talking too, loves bikes, and rides very well. There where times I was moving for a good bit without stopping and I had totaly forgotten she was back there! I don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing, she never once upsetted the balance of the bike. But its cool, shes just a friend. I was thinking about joining the Army National Guard this upcomming year tho.

 

Congrats on the ride time. 3000 miles is a good amount of time in the saddle to learn their ride.
