** KNEE DRAGGERS UNITE ** Part XIII - Squid City and Crash Cages

[eternalone423]

any street triple fans in here? Completely set on purchasing one, just waiting for a good deal on craigslist or FB...had an fz-09 but she got stolen. Upgrading to my dream bike

Bro... I test rode a Street Triple R and it was phucking great. The sound and agility of it was way more than I expected. The speed and torque was amazing as well. I'd get one if it was around the same price as the competition. It's literally 2-3k or so more than the MT09, XSR900, Z900, etc... but it does offer a nicer TFT display, rider aids, etc, but still...

[eternalone423]

My next bike will be;



hnnnggggg



Anyone riding lately?

Wheelie machine... hooligan bike. Get it man.

[Dirk__Diggler]

Why not the MT09?

Ehh, I just want that 1K again. Plus I have a guy that I can send the ECU to for upgrades!!! lol

Thats the plan with the extra comfort!!!

Just buy mine; ECU, airbox, and exhaust are already done!...if you were near Ohio lol

But in all seriousness, the FZ/MT-07 is a great bike, you'll love it.

Really itching for spring to get here to feel the difference of the XSR900.

I didn't test ride a Street Triple but was juggling the same questions. Best price I could find for a 2018 Street Triple R/RS was going to be $10k+ OTD. Wound up buying a 2019 XSR900 for $8k OTD with no miles on it.

I may get a Street Triple in the future still, but for now I'll take the reliability of Japanese bikes.

Hey guys,

What is your opinions on keeping a smaller bike to hoon around in and also have a bigger bike for spirited riding? For instance, let's say your in the market for a FZ07, but you currently have a CBR 250/300. Would you keep the smaller bike or sell it?

Keep it if you want to ride it.. Then when a day comes you don't want to sell it.

[eternalone423]

Thanks man. It appears I just purchased your dream bike.

I ended up buying a 2017 FZ07 fully modded with a full Yoshi exhaust, CRG levers, fender delete, LED tail light, LED marker lights and LED headlight yesterday for an insane deal. It only has 3500 miles on it and is in mint condition.

I am gonna keep my CBR. Pics coming later on. I gotta clean it from the ride home.

[eternalone423]

Here's my new bike. Riding this thing is incredibly fun and the Yoshi exhaust sounds incredible!



Dirk.... you gotta get one of these man. This is insane value for the $$$$

Just like mine that I sold last week!

The Yoshi is amazing. If the previous owner did not tune it, I'd look into Hordpower along with his airbox.

Hey man. Yours was really nice. I kinda wanted one with the highlighter wheels but I couldn't pass mine up. I was able to get it for $4400 modded with just 3500 miles. He practically gave it away to me considering a full Yoshi exhaust is over $700 dollars alone. Not even mentioning the other mods such as fender delete and cyclops LED headlight bulb.

I ordered Shogun frame sliders and tank grips last night to add to it. I'll add spools to it in few weeks and I should be good for the next season.

I looked into Hordpower and his airbox/flash. 500 bucks for a potential 10hp gain? That's not bad at all. It sounds expensive but 10hp on a bike is a ton of power added. I see that airbox poking out in your pic. Niceeeee

[Dirk__Diggler]

Beautiful bikes.


I am getting a black MT-10... Need that speed!!! lol

Thanks Bro. Go for it! We want to see it when you do.

You got a killer deal on that bike! Mine was a '16 with 4500 miles. Sold it for $5000.

Beautiful bikes.

And here I thought my XSR900 was going to be a big jump in power...
I'd love to test ride an MT-10 at some point. Couldn't imagine a 2nd or 3rd gear pull on that thing.

Def post some pics if you pull the trigger!

Yeah I agree with you regarding his future MT-10. I feel like the FZ/MT07 pulls hard. I can't imagine a 10. I bet your balls will get tight every pull lmao

Sup guys,

Last night I got a chance to see and sit on the new Ducati Streetfighter V4 at an official unveiling down in ATL. What an amazing looking bike in person. It’s actually bigger than I thought it would be in person. It has a taller seat height compared to my FZ07 but not by much. This bike looks amazing in person!












208hp with 90ft lbs of torque. 234hp with a full exhaust upgrade and tune. Pure insanity. 25k purchase price though... lol

[darkninja67]

That Ducati is sweet. Light as fuk too, sucks it's so damn expensive

[eternalone423]

Right. It's super nice but the $/hp is not worth it to me. I'd get the Z-H2 instead if I'm looking to buy bleeding edge bike tech brand new in hyper naked form.

My buddy wants to put down the $1k deposit for the Ducati Streetfighter. I keep telling him to get a Monster instead if he truly wants to get into the world of motorcycles as his first bike and is dead on a naked Ducati. The Streetfighter is way too much bike for a beginner rider.

[RoyalRyy]

It's been a fukin dream riding on these empty-ish freeways. No more rush hour traffic.

The only downside is the amount of fukin cops I see. I'm assuming they know people will be speeding because of all the empty stretches.

[darkninja67]

San Diego has perfect riding weather year round, sucks that it's basically MA west. Liberal as fuk with high taxes.

Wanted to get my tires swapped out but this virus crap is going on so spring is pretty much shot.

Might get a new bike soon though, one I can take the old lady on comfortably.

Shhh, the cops up here haven't figured it out quite yet. Speed limits are treated more like a suggestion on the freeway the last couple days.

SD isn't that liberal tbh. It's a big city but is very much a military town. It's been raining off and on for the past two months too. More than usual these past two seasons. Taxes still high doe.

[TheSpiceMelange]

that ducati thoooo......

[phillipsanchez]

Apparently with the new Euro standards you can no longer turn ABS off on the Ducatis.
Thats so annoying since I was kinda frothing the new Hyper.

Am still interested to see what people are saying about the new Streetfighter, Ducati missed a trick with the last one by ****ing up the ergos so much.

[Geosynchronicty]

What is the difference between something such as the cbr600 and a Ducati monster?

Please don't bite.

[TheSpiceMelange]

What is the difference between something such as the cbr600 and a Ducati monster?

Please don.

cbr600 uses clip ons, where as the monster has handlebars.

Completely different suspension setup, gearing and engine (i4 vs vtwin on the duc).

the cbr would be mostly used on the track, where as the duc would be a "around town" type bike.

Japanese bikes need lots of stickers to cover the ugly bits

[lotusdeva]

Can we ride if va is on lockdown until June 10? These rules are confusing,.

[RoyalRyy]

Currently looking at a 2018 ZX10R SE for $15k OTD. At this price I can find 2017 S1000RR's on ******** marketplace with super low miles. You guys think I can negotiate on this price? The ZX10 looks like its been sitting on the floor for awhile and it has 500 miles on it. How low do you think I can go? This is a dealership btw.
