I feel like there are a lot less funny comments on memes but genuine questions get a lot of engagement. I’ve been here for a few years and it’s nice. Stick with it you’ll find communities you enjoy and get in the habit of blocking communities you don’t and it’ll be great!

    Yeah I’ve been keeping an eye open for a used ninja too - I know they’re a great first bike. I do worry buying used that it wasn’t taken care of and it’ll bite me in a month or two. I’m very particular with taking care of my machines. That’s why I’m leaning more towards buying a new cheaper brand like cfmoto.

    Thanks for the advice!

    Did you ever feel the 400 was sluggish or underpowered? I plan to use it for general commuting occasionally but mostly joyriding in the country and maybe a track visit or two when I’m really comfortable on it.

    No real experience with moto. Just lots of mountain biking so I’m pretty comfortable on two wheels.

    Definitely taking the riders course 100% I was hoping to bring my own bike to it to learn directly on it instead of a different type bike that they would provide.

    I’m pretty sure I would like to go with cfmoto for my first bike. Their features and price are very attractive. Plus many local dealers carry them. Anyways, I’m struggling to decide between a sport bike or a naked style bike. I’m thinking the 675 model would be great to grow into as I learn.

    I like the styling and design of the sport but I’ve seen in videos that sometimes they can be uncomfortable. To me it seems the naked would be less comfortable but I have no real experience with moto just mountain biking.

    Any thoughts from more experienced riders? Or maybe anyone that owns one of them? Thanks in advance.

     

    Hi everyone! I just found out about this sub and am happy to be subscribed. Just wondering if you all watch YouTube videos on the subject. I really like Adrian’s Digital Basement and UsagiElectric. I’m very interested in the vacuum tube computers from the latter and trying to figure out how those work!

    Does anyone have any recommendations for other channels with a similar sort of educational-ish style? I like being not told exactly wtf is happening with the electronics but the diagnostic and repair and explanation parts are the best!

    Anyways thanks for reading!
