    They certainly Wheely at the flick of your wrist! And are pretty comfortable on longer journeys although the tank range is limited. This one is a great bike which has been well looked after, ....that's why I bought it 🤣👍 having great fun on it, and if it wasn't for this video then I'd of never have known about it.👍👍

    I think upright bikes are much better.. first think I did on my new Ninja 1000 was handlebars... good video

      A lot of people do prefer the upright ergonomics with bikes, I don't dislike it, but overall prefer my ZX9r, cheers mate 👍

    Thats one nice bike mate. I would love to practice some wheelies on that.

    • @HalfdeadRider
      @HalfdeadRider  2 роки тому +1

      Definitely would be a good bike to practice on, it would wheelie easy with no clutching 👍

    • @minesadab

      Good for wheelies under acceleration, but the throttle's a bit sensitive to hold it at the balance point. Move your wrist a millimetre and you'd be off the back.

    is it comfortable for longer trips what ya think?

      I only rode it for an hour and a half or so mate, but I'm sure it would be fine, I've done a whole day out on my ZX9r with no issues.

    Bottom end stomp. Especially going up 2 teeth on the back sprocket. Thats why I'm not selling mine 🙂

    • @HalfdeadRider
      @HalfdeadRider  Рік тому +1

      Very fun bike, great if you don't need a higher top end, but would very soon get frustrating for me, even with standard gearing as it reaches it's top speed which is low, very quickly. Enjoy and stay safe 👍

      @@cristiantamasila8667 you get used to the throttle, can't really remember how the pegs were, but you sit kind of over the front wheel. Other than a quick go around the estate, this was the only time I rode it. Sit on it and see how you feel before buying it.

    Interesting bike, like to try one. 2nd half of the vid I got obsessed with the orange light, it went away when you gave it a blast, is it a pussy light (asking for a friend)? 🤭

      The yellow light is the fuel warning light, there strange on the superduke, even when you add fuel they stay on for approx 10 mins afterwards, no idea why
