Hello! I’m Eve and I’m 20 years old. I made my A1 driver’s license at 18, unfortunately it never came to me that I bought a motorcycle and could gain some experience because I’m no longer financially dependent on my parents and I’m able to buy a motorcycle, I want to catch up! Now my first question is if it’s still worth buying an A1 machine and driving around with it for a few years and really riding a motorcycle. I don’t want to drive around with an A1 forever. I’ve heard from all my friends and acquaintances that you don’t have any fun in the long run if you go there anymore. The second question would be, if the A2 driver’s license is worth more now, how much would it cost me? I’ve heard that you could only take a test. How does it go exactly? I haven’t driven for 2 years now and I think this would be a total disaster without a few hours. I don’t want to spend more than €8,000 on the motorcycle and the driver’s license. Now my third and last question would be which model is beginner friendly! I looked around for a few models, both A1 and A2 and I have to honestly admit that the super athletes did it to me. My father then let me hear that it was not beginner friendly and I should start with a Naked, because these models are There are so many models that make the selection even harder. Especially if you don’t have any experience. That’s why I need your help. I’m also very realistic now and see the fact that it’s probably not going to be a super athlete in the end. In the end, it’s just important to me personally that it’s fun! To me if that’s important for the selection. I’m 1.65m tall and I’m more comfortable. nd weigh 50kg, so it would be great if the bike isn’t all too heavy! Thank you for your help!

Motorcycle for 2 m in size/A2
Moin, I might be looking for a new motorcycle. I sold mine 4 years ago (Suzuki Bandit) because I didn’t drive with it anyway, because of my height (2m) earlier another question about my driver’s license. I made my A2 driver’s license in 2014. In the driver’s license there is an *) and in the driver’s license a date + at 12 79.03,79,04. That means as much as I can drive a 3 wheel but not an open motorcycle over 48 HP right? So I still have to drive a bike. So I’m looking for a motorcycle over 35KW with throttle to collect driving practice again and then maybe to do the test so that I can drive without throttle. Can you recommend that to me? I would have thought of Supermoto/Enduro/Tourer/Renner (likely to go away because of size). A chopper would be nothing for me. But as I said, that must fit to my body size. Budget would be so max. 7000 Euro. René

Caution! Wrong tyre valves/sensors possible for winter bikes.
Hello together, My Stinger is equipped with the winter rims offered by Kia. They are labeled MAK Panorama rims. Also the tyre pressure sensors offered by Kia are installed. These sensors are labeled Schrader 3131. These sensors are not allowed for these rims, as they only have simple clamp-in valves. Due to their design, they can only be used up to 210 km/h. You can find the ABE’s of the rims here, they are the numbers: rim front – E24 124R-000094 rear rim – E24 124R-000095 On page 7 the following is stated: A34 Only tubeless tires and rubber valves or metal screw valves with outer nut are permitted, which largely meet the standards (DIN, E.T.R.T.O. or Tyre and Rim) and are suitable for a valve hole diameter of 11.3 mm. For vehicle versions with a design-related maximum speed of more than 210 km/h, only metal screw valves are permitted. These rims were sold quite often in my area (large area Aachen) for the Stinger. If you are also affected, turn to your dealer and do not drive more than 200 km/h. I became aware of this problem because a valve leaked. Greeting Lok

High beam Stinger
Hello together If I have turned on the main light at my Stinger two light cones about 45 degrees upwards. Can a Stinger owner tell me if this is only the case with mine or if this is the case with all of them? Thank you very much

Windshield seal missing?
On my R231 from 2012 the windshield was replaced last week because of rockfall. On today’s first trip, the wind noises from 120 km/h seemed quite loud to me. Then I looked at the new disc a little bit more closely and found a 6 mm wide and about 5 mm deep air gap at the top, between the disc and the frame. I am not sure if it was already available before, or if there is a gasket or the part of a gasket missing now. . I will drive to the workshop again on Monday, but it would certainly be good if I didn’t stand there so stupid. Maybe someone can help me by looking at his R231. Thank you in advance. Hinnerk
