What don't you like about your bike?

[dandoolittle]

We all go on about how our bikes are great. I love my CBR but the one thing that does annoy me is the seat cowl. It looks great but it's pain in the ass to remove when I need a pillion.

What's your pet hate about your bike?

 

[Embers829]

Its not really something that I dont like. Its more something I'm still to get used to,
But I went from a 6 speed to a 5 speed. so the gearing is totally different.

Under seat storage space is lacking.... About enough for a wooly bobble hat.... But all my wooly hats/beanies don't have bobbles... So I can't say precisely ...

My exhaust note sounds like a cross between a small diesel and kids crappy geo metro....

 

[O8ride]

My arse hurts after 45 minutes or so if I've been riding above 55mph. And it won't go above clock 50mph up long hills - if they could solve that on 125cc scooters and maintain 60, I'd be in heaven. No desire or need for me to exceed 65 or 70, but I hate it dropping off.

On my Ninja 650, I used to hate the handle bars and exhaust sound but I did change both out and I am a bit happier...but then I tried a supermoto the other day and now I want a supermoto. :/

I hate the key switch being just in front of the tank.

 

[MrCods]

I love my bikes

 

[Shirou]

Yup, I'm still in the initial love phase so I can't find anything wrong with them. Even after thorough thinking.

 

[MrFalloffalot]

Hate that i have to work on them...I'd love to be able to hand them over to someone 'Trustworthy' and reliable.
I need an apprentice/slave, to do the work, ill just watch and sip tea!!

Oh did i also say that the apprentice Pays Me for the privellage? and makes the Teas??
> : )

My speedo is complete bollocks. I may as well have a birds nest sat there instead.

I'm an average speed kinda guy so don't bother with it

When I watch your speedo I think its a finger waggling at you for going so fast.

Haha, that's my tacho flapping about all over the show. Basically my whole instrument panel is balls.

I can normally deal with it but the other day I went to see my parents in Hertfordshire which is a 120 mile trip, I didn't know how fast I was going so tried to gauge it with the cars. Sometimes they flew by me, sometimes I flew by them!

My seat feels like you are sitting on a 2x4. I can't go much more than an hour without getting off and walking around a little bit.

 

[istanbulrider]

Simple for me, all the beautiful chrome soon becomes all the bloody chrome when it comes to cleaning. Also stock rear suspension is rubbish.

 

[Teen Rider]

My bikes an 82 and well, the kickstand and under frame parts are starting to rust...

 

[Marbro_za]

Tops out to soon, and is to comfy
