- UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
- OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear.
- HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.
- TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

What made you choose a Kwacka? Could've picked up a nice HD for that money.

comfort, reliability, no oil leaksOriginally Posted by faroogoo
and most importantly, service cost.It costs an arm and a leg to service or repair a harley. plus, unlike a harley, it's water cooled which makes it much easier to ride on hot days. Besides, just like i have always been a holden man, i have always been a Kwaka man

Yeah i guess everyones got theyre own preferences,comfort, reliability, no oil leaks
Reliability & oil leaks are more of a myth than reality in a well maintained EVO or TC.
VROD is water cooled...
But at the end of the day as long your out riding ay.

KTM 250 EXTSorry I ride dirt bikes lol.
I want to go get my Learners and get a little CBR250 just to learn and use as a run around, but my family are totally against it, and I need to get a new car before I get another bike.
Out of curiosity, hows it with a car tyre on the back, I couldnt help but think it would handle like shit with it, but Ive never riden one with a car tyre. Also I dont mind the kwacka's I rode a 1000cc Ninja once, seemed to have a bit of poke compared to the 250 lol.

the vrod is also beyond what most can afford. You can buy a new commodore for what you would pay for most harleys.Yeah i guess everyones got theyre own preferences,

it handles surprisingly well with it actually.... very smooth, and it corners great! when you consider the bike rear costs about $370 and get's about 20,000 K's out of it, the car tyre cost $200 and i should get more than 50,000 out of itKTM 250 EXT

R1's are scaryAlthough i may be wrong, but i know the Kawasaki ZX14-R was the most powerful bike on the market. I'm too old, and too allergic to pain to buy one though.
