Very lucky to have such little traffic for that first ride. Stay safe and hope the bike is more familiar and you are enjoying its potential 👍

Thanks broski. Yes the feel was unmatched when I picked it up. It was close to 7 years for me. Now I’m obsessed again. The gsrx is a beautiful machine. Good luck with your new purchase and have fun 😎👌🏾

You did great. What bike were you coming from? What power mode where you on for this first ride (rain, low power?) I felt the same way when i started on my grom. I plan on upgrading to z900 eventually.

Thanks bro. 😎 This is my first bike. Passed 7 years ago so been saving up and pulled the trigger on this. I was in road mode. …yeah get one. They are well worth it. They feel so gooooood!!!!

@@spikemarleymoto Wow I can understand the nervousness if this is your first bike. Yes I can't wait to upgrade once I build confidence with my Grom. The z900 looks amazing with power on tap if you need it.

Just ride at your own speed and don’t be fooled by all bravado that comes out of some people’s mouth. Time and practice pay massive dividends Enjoy it and welcome to the world of bike/bikers

if they're factory Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 tires. burn them up fast, throw them away, sell them for gas. That rubber is absolutely useless in the wet. I'm a 2024 Z900 owner and in the wet with minimal banking at about 30km/h, that rubber just lost traction. Accident and subsequent repair 800 euro + new tyres. The bike is great, but the factory tires suck.
@spikemarleymoto20 күн бұрын
Thanks for the heads up. I’ve only used them once on wet they felt fine to me. But I’m pretty much only gonna use them on dry roads cba with the rain if I can help it. …the tires are the standard ones that came with the model not sure what make they are
