Hey you; people who just so happen to own a motorcycle or make payments on one. I want to know how much does a motorcycle cost! Also for example if you have experienced a lot with motorcycles, Which ones are reliable? I‘m just asking because, well I‘m interested! I know some of you will say, that it‘s risky do go around in a motorcycle. But to be honest, it‘s risky to do anything! How much does a Motorcycle cost?Which ones are good, and reliable?And if you have any stories to tell, please share with me!
this guy doesn't know what he is talking about. lower gears (higher numerically) multiply torque. the d35 is a weak axle as it is, the axle shaft diameter is less than an inch, that with the deep gear and the clutch drop snapped the axle shaft. i swapped mine out for a ford 8.8 out of an explorer. got the the axle with factory limited slip, disc brakes and 4:10 gears. got a d30 from a 4 cylinder jeep. also with 4:10's, gear change from the junk yard, 400 bucks. plus brackets and brake lines and new yokes.hey its a JEEP. Just Empty Every Pocket
My motorcycle cost $24,000.
If I were to answer the Q directly it wouldn't make much sense. If you're serious about the sport, do some serious research. It's in your best interest when you're participating in a potentially life-threatening sport. And if by any chance you find that you're not serious about the sport, get a scooter. Great for simple around town riding, not too fast, easy to handle, no gears or shifting, etc. Best of luck, hope to see you out on the road.
As the other 2 said, it's not a question that has a straight answer. For instance. I bought a bike 2 days ago, paid $1000 to the seller, got the title and took the bike home. It needed some work, so I've put about 8 hours into it, changing fluids, adjusting valves, cleaning carbs. basic service stuff. When I'm done working on the bike, I'll have another $250 into it for parts and a tire. Then I'll spend $20 on insurance (I own 2 other bikes, so adding a third is way cheap), and probably $200 on getting the title transferred and a plate for the bike. $1500-ish is what *THIS* motorcycle will cost me before riding it. Then there's fuel cost, oil and filter costs, tires, brakes and more servicing as I use the bike. Someone Else might go to the dealership and sign a loan for $14,000 to buy a new bike. They may pay the dealer every time the bike needs something, are paying more on insurance, and interest on that loan. So a motorcycle can 'cost' just about anything from $300 on up to over $1,000,000 As for what's reliable Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Victory, Harley Davidson, Triumph, BMW, Ducati, Moto Guzzi, Ural, Royal Enfield it'll be harder to list a brand that's NOT good and reliable. Though how the owner takes care of each individual bike will determine just how good/reliable it turns out. I don't think my $1000 was very good or reliable to the guy I bought it from. It was in DIRE need of a good servicing, which It's getting. I expect it will be very reliable to me.
Simple answer is yes. You've put rims and tires on the vehicle that were not recommended by the manufacturer. Putting rims and tires like that on a car forces the other parts to take extra stress on every turn and bump. Sometimes when there is a failure, such as you mentioned, it puts binding on the transmission and subsequently on the engine forcing it to stall out. Usually this type of modification also causes the warranty to void for reason. From what you describe fixing this properly will cost quite a bit even if you haven't damaged your transmission, most likely you have. You may not notice the transmission damage right away but I bet you will in about a year or two. No matter what you will be fighting odd drive train problems for a very long time.
