The University Of Montana

I start to ride around the University talking about all sorts of junk. All with that nice brake noise in the background.

Once you've experienced brake fade on a twisty backroad, you'll have a newfound appreciation for your new lines; I haven't gotten them, but I've wished I had a few times; they're a great first mod.

Also, I had an old 250, and I have a new-ish R6, and shifting alot is tons of fun unless you're riding roads like these... If you're riding around, sitting in traffic, talking about your jeep; maybe you ought to stick to your jeep... take that thing as far away from traffic as possible!

Good point. But the reason I ride in town (besides vloging) is to save gas. And on the subject of the jeep - 12-13mpg city vs 45-52mpg city 250 style.

I actually like shifting a lot. It makes me feel like I'm riding, you know? As they say, better to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow. :-)

Nicely put. When I re-watched it I kinda felt the same way. Still wish the bikes gears were just a bit taller. So like first would go to 45 or so. But yes I agree with you shifting more is nice.

Yea, there's no arguing with 50mpg!

I'm looking at buying probably end of November, beginning of December. I dont want to rush into it though.

Much appreciated on sending me a copy. very cool of you :) Whenever you get a review done is good with me.

[starhobo14]

I plan on making a video but the problem is I have so many other video pending that it may take up to 4 weeks or so before I could get it up. If I do make a video I'll try to let you know and send you a copy before it goes up. Nothing special really, and if you are waiting till next season before buying then I will try to make a very GOOD review by then.

[davidhowellca]

No worries. I have time :)

If you do find the time to write some brief thoughts down, msg me and let me know the good and bad of the bike.

[starhobo14]

Only bad thing is it wont break 100mph. There you go. Now go get one. Nah, I plan on doing a review someday but it may be awhile. Sorry.

[davidhowellca]

Please do a review of the 250! I'm seriously considering it as my first bike and I'd like to hear as many peoples thoughts as possible. Both good and bad.
