Bike-Based Autism

All that said, the most valuable and reliable source of motorcycle knowledge is always gonna be whatever old guy with an old bike wants to chat your ear off about them. Go make some friends!

Thanks for saying so. Everyone could use more motorcycles on their dashboards!

I am also a huge fan of the KLR650, especially the first generation, but I have to admit I am a huge sucker for street bikes that people have converted to perform better offroad (i.e. scramblers). If I had to pick a factory made dual sport, I would agree with you and say the KLR650, but the best motorcycle in the world is always going to be the one you have the keys to.

Thanks! I am always happy when motorcycles can bring people joy.

It has a little back rack for your bread, milk, eggs, and coffee. You can paint it teal yourself, if you like.

You can learn to ride on a budget and show up to work in style. Also, it's only 36 less than the Initial D car!

A reliable friend to take you on all your adventures. This one comes in funky 90s colours. Mullet recommended but not required to ride.
