Hello dear community me once again a question is burning under the hood. And I am just changing and would like to transport my bike on a trailer. My neighbour can possibly borrow one, but the one has no track where you can push the bike in. So it is a “naked” trailer and I would have to secure my bike alone with clamping straps. How do you do that?? With such a track I can imagine that, since the front wheel has a quite fixed position, but if there is nothing at all, I wonder how this should go. Would be happy if you could give me some tips. Short to the road: 250km, 90% highway Thank you very much!!

A2 Re-entering model consulting
Hi, I recently upgraded my A1 to A2 (10/2017 ). Now I’m looking for a reasonable bike which should be throttled to 48 HP. Unfortunately I have a preference for four-cylinder engines, which significantly reduces the model selection for A2. *** Who actually came up with this with the 70 KW? Such a shit – dozens of used ones have 72 KW and fall out with it! *** Now to the actual question: I swung with my choice of the new bike between Honda CB 650 F and Kawa saki Z800(used) or Kawasaki Z900 with 70 KW. Which bike is better, worse there are marginal differences and what should you pay attention to when buying? Thanks for your answers.

Ideas for first (reason) motorcycle sought
Hello together, right with the car driver’s license I made my motorcycle driver’s license after as a teenager a 125, but then the car came and unfortunately the money for a own machine was not there and and and and… Long speech, short meaning, now finally a motorcycle should be here! It’s about the fun of the two-wheel drive – I’m not a screwdriver. I say I’m looking for a reliable machine, which is fun to drive. That doesn’t have to be special now be fast, but good handling and good cornering position as well as sufficient power for mountain rides should be then nevertheless 😉 As a rule I will be on the machine alone, but space for Sozia would be important. And it should also be suitable and comfortable for longer tours (possibly back-friendly). Now I have already looked around a bit and have stuck with the Honda NC750X DCT as many places recommended entry-level motorcycle, which I like to test in the near future DCT sounds good, I also like the storage space and also the optics to me. Would you recommend the NC750X to me? Is the performance sufficient? Which other models should I look at in your opinion? In any case, I would like to stay in the four-digit range with accessories (protective clothing, suitcases). A (young) used person would be in principle also in question. Would be very grateful for tips, Markus

Motorcycle for ALL little people?????
Hello! I need your help looking for a motorcycle for very small people. I’m only 1.56m tall and also have very short legs (inside length 67cm). And unfortunately I’m not the strongest (despite a lot of sports…). I made my driver’s license last year on my cushioned Virago 535. I never really got along with this thing, it was too hard for me. I put it 3 times on a crossroad. Always standing! Driving went, but standing, starting, stopping, tight curves It was a disaster! I sold it in autumn! I have had driving lessons to overcome the fear that has developed in the meantime. The driving lessons were on a 125 Eleminator. They were easy to drive, nice narrow and easy and much more maneuverable and easier to handle compared to Virago. But overall I am not a chopper fan…! And a 125er, well, my husband drives a hornet…! He is nice and always waiting for me, but so long…??? H I sat on an ER6, but also there I came down with my toes despite the good lowering set only just like that. As a starter with a fall experience a Greul! Besides, the part VIEL is too big for me! This is from the tank 2x as wide as my cross (well almost !!!) ! The 250 Ninja is quite nice, but also can not be built deep enough. So I am just quite discouraged…! Do you have a tip for me???? THANK YOU in advance! Ina

Too much thought?
And this is what happened (16:30): I was standing at a traffic light with the motorcycle and wanted to turn right into a road. When the traffic light jumped on green I drove off and did not consider that there is also a pedestrian overpass there. An elderly lady came literally sprinted on the road but I was already on the pedestrian path and could not stop before this and let her pass. There came to no collision however she lifted the right arm and escaped from me I didn’t touch her at all. I know it was my fault and I should have stopped, but it happened now and I can’t change it anymore. I’m still in the trial period at the moment and that’s why it’s really bothering me. It just doesn’t make me sleep calmly How high is the probability that I’m showing up, because she knew that she had ‘early progress’, but I saw her. I didn’t touch her at all. Do I have to attend a follow-up seminar? All in all, I have learned from it and will pay better attention to such danger points in the future. But the fear that the police will send a letter with an advertisement is still great. Is this justified, or should I not put too much stress on it and take better care of it next time?

Sozia mit Handicap – Aids or Experiences
Okay….I don’t know now if this is the right forum….but I haven’t found anything on the net even after intensive search about it….following “theme”: I would like to take my life partner on the bike now and then….the hook….she’s been suffering from an immunisation damage since her youth, which means that she can’t move her legs on her own and has almost no strength in the upper body and the arms….The question is if anyone knows if it’s f ertige “bean fixtures” for the footrests and “overlong Velcro straps” to buy somewhere to “fasten on me”…or whether someone has experience with it or other solutions??? Thank you already

Exhaust pops…
Good morning together, drive a KTM 690 SM year 2009 with original exhaust. Before about 500km I noticed that the exhaust pops when I take away the gas from higher speeds (e.g. at 5000/U in the second gear gas away). The banging was isolated, it was always only 1-2x banging in a row then was calm. Banging is actually also the wrong word here, it is not very loud but you notice it also with closed visor clearly. Since about 200km the exhaust now always pops more, i.e. also from lower speeds, when I take the gas away, it starts to bollard immediately (smiling, bragging, whatever you might call it) and I generally feel that the exhaust is very loud after about 50km when it is really hot. People are already turning around inside, that was never the case before. I am thinking a little bit about the cause and effect. Oil level in the display glass is exactly centered, as described in the manual. – Motorbike runs too fat (carburettor set wrong) – Exhaust has too little insulation wool – Exhaust is leaking What effects does the bang have on the motorcycle or is it completely harmless? Besides oil change and chain service, I have never done anything on the motorcycle, so I don’t know well, so what would be advisable if one of the above points were to apply? Rather go to the dealer or hire yourself? Thanks and greeting Montana

Motorcycle for weekend trips
Hello, one way in advance I am a complete newcomer to the topic of motorcycles or two-wheelers in general and really depend on your objective opinion. I fulfilled the dream with 31 and spent a good month in Thailand. Who ever was there knows that you do not get far without a moped and from the moment I sat on it for the first time I caught the fever. Back in Austria I made the motorcycle driver’s license and was even more impressed by the feeling. Unfortunately, hardly anyone drives a motorcycle in my circle of acquaintances, which is why I hope to receive competent advice here. The most important corners to me and what I am looking for: 31 years old, 174 cm tall, rather faint. I am looking for a motorcycle for leisurely trips, certainly also more often with my girlfriend in the back. Since we plan to connect the whole with climbing or weekend trips I tend to a touring machine at the moment. I’m open to this, but Chopper is not at all in question for me. My maximum budget is 5,500 euros, but would be happy if it doesn’t exceed 5000. As far as the desired vehicle is concerned, I’m actually quite open. I’ve been aware of Honda, BMW and Triumph so far, but that doesn’t mean that others don’t come into question for me. As I’m aware that I don’t get a new machine with the budget, I’m more likely to be the point “costs.” n relevant to repairing. That’s why my instructor tended to think about a Honda at the time. How do you see that? Because of the excursions it is important to me that the motorcycle has the possibility to install suitcases. Besides general tips I would have a few concrete questions: – How much power is useful if I have to make weekend trips with my girlfriend in the back? I tend to something from 650 cc but I’m not sure. – Da ic h with 174 am not a giant now the question arises for me. Can I drive any bike at all or can one adapt each bike quite simply to my size? Or do certain motorcycles for me not even come into question? – What should I pay particular attention to when buying/selling a private bike?

Highest danger where? BAB, Land-Str., city traffic lights?
There was an accident with personal injury in front of my apartment. This time it was unfortunately two motorcyclists (according to testimonies, slow driving!). The crossing has 13 traffic lights. According to my indeterminate opinion, just such a regulation is very dangerous and it would be better to install a roundabout there without traffic lights. So where most accidents may take place, because also a bit further from my place of residence still a short time ago an accident with To In other words, I feel safer on country roads or even on the BAB, because it is usually clearer. I am shocked. Please drive very carefully in the metropolises. Always.

motorcycle(s), cost handling
hey. so I’m just thinking about whether to start with a motorcycle license. am 18 years old, but I don’t have enough money. have about 2000€, but that’s for a ticket and a motorcycle. a little bit, well, but that aside. how much would it cost me to entertain a motorcycle every year, so control, insurance and everything. until I’m 21, I must have throttled it to 34 ps, no? if I do the ticket now but only at 21, then I still have this deadline for 2/3 years or so?
