    I'd get a bike license and buy a roadworthy bike in may when I turn 15 if my parents weren't so against it.

    I want a Vespa GTS 300 SE Super Sport and a Ninja 650. (Don't judge.)

    Low end torque, where i shift you start to get your power (around 10000 rpm )but still on the straights you'd bash me. Not sure about corners tho.
    A friend of mine works with these a lot, that's the reason my dad (its his at the moment) got one. We paid 4200€ but that's the price with mods as Chiptuning and 10kg of weight reduction :D.
    it also didnt fall apart yet;).

    It's surprisingly not bad when it comes to low end torque :p I thought it would be horrible, but it's quite good, it really starts pulling at 10k though.

    I'll try get some videos up, I have no gear so I need to go out tomorrow and buy some..

    You should get a GoPro and go thrash the Hyosung :p (And hope it doesn't drop a piston)

    I have a cam, but german laws dont allow me to upload stuff with faces of people who dont want to be in this Video,car brands and models, or license plates.
    And i dont want to edit alot.

    I thought that these 250cc 4 cylinder bikes were very oversquare if they rev to 19000+ rpm, resulting in a major lack of torque. But nice to hear it's enough.

    I don't know how often I watched this video :D

    Awesome bike Sam, looks absolutely gorgeous. And the sound... Can't imagine the smile on your face at 19k :D I'd love to have one of these but there is no chance of getting the Balius in Europe as far as I know... at least for a reasonable prize.

    The video inspired me to get one.. I've watched it so many times ;) When I saw one for sale I snatched it straight away.

    The sound is just so amazing, I'm in love with it already. And yeah it seems to be in Japan/Australasia mainly, but you could look for a GSX250FX? It's the same bike rebadged :)

    The Sound of this bike gives me goosebumps and an erection. Weird combo.
    If I find one of these in Germany you can be damn sure i will sell my soul for it.
    Damn, i will sell everyones soul for one xD

    Trust me, it's worth it, take a life if you have to. ;)

    Went to the lakes on my Balius today, and bought all new gear.

    Thats just beautiful.
    I have that gas problem all the time, my Varadero has nothing like a fuellight. But i know i have to refuel after 400km :D

    I think i'll just wait till i'm 20 and then get something like a hornet 900 or a big speed triple.
    3 cylinder bikes also sound pretty nice :)

    Damn, 400km is a lot. I never get past 250km, the Bandit consumes at least 6l/100km. Pretty bad considering it isn't even that fast^^

    I wish the weather was still nice enough to ride but I guess that's it for this year... :( Don't want to freeze my a** off^^

    125cc are not very thirsty, it uses 3.5 to 4 litres.
    But i need 17 s from 0-100, you're better off with your bandit trust me :D.

    I kinda have to freeze my ass off to get to school.
    Nobody needs winter. Exept people with quads.

    Would be sad if you couldn't :D.
    Yes it's epic and i love it, but after twisting the throttle once on the GD 250 i just miss the power.
    Also, you're the one with a 250 4 banger. I dont have to tell you how epic this is xD

    I just realized our displacement per cylinder is the same :eek:.

    Hondas 125cc v-twin. There's nothing that's remotely as good as this engine(atleast with the same displacement).
    IMHO 2 strokes are not meant for everyday use, even though they're fun.

    I'd really like to get a motorcycle. Unfortunately my parents are really against it.
