Kstorm21 · January 4th, 2012, 01:36 AM

Hey y'all! I'm new here. Don't have a bike yet but I'm hoping to get one soon!!! I saw a 2010 LE 250, the red and black one....the one I really want

anywho I saw it on craigslist for $1700 but never got a reply. I guess I'll just buy a new one.

My husband is signing me up for the course on Schofield. (FYI, I think it's free so if you can do it on a military base do so.)

I can't wait to start riding. I've always wanted a motorcycle and I'm finally doing it. Can't wait to meet y'all and cruise the Island.

I just really like the design of that color scheme. Plus there was almost a $3000 difference.

And the other one only had 700 miles on it. OH WELL! Not too fond of the colors this year but after seeing them in person I really like the candy lime green one.

Here's the one I'm talking about.

Wicked808 · January 4th, 2012, 02:25 AM

I not one green person either! But I bought the lime green 250, buggah is nice! I not one red person either but the 2012 red is nice too!

Mountain Dew · January 4th, 2012, 03:10 AM

Haha, that bike was listed in the beginning of December. I guarantee it sold within 2 days.

I had mine listed at 3800 and sold it in 6 days for a little less.

ungluck · January 4th, 2012, 03:40 AM

buy mine for 3800, has all the stuff you'll spend another 1000 for on it. wife learned on it, and she had no idea how to ride. great beginner/intermediate bike.

What kind of payment do you want? Also, do you have any pics of what it looks like?

Mountain Dew · January 6th, 2012, 12:44 AM

Which KTM you looking at, Chris?

I hope it's this one

Gorilla25 · January 6th, 2012, 10:11 PM

thats to connect the GoPro camera

squaregamer476 · January 6th, 2012, 11:12 PM

wondering...anyone else had trouble triggering the red lights? I had a few in the kapolei area. Eventually, i ran the red lights. Seen some threads about running the reds. Can we do that here in Hawaii?

Mountain Dew · January 6th, 2012, 11:18 PM

To my knowledge, it's illegal. But is it enforced? Never had an issue with it.

Rule of thumb:
As long as you wait a light cycle. Oh, and don't get caught. Especially don't do it when there's a cop around.

Totally new to this whole thing but isn't there something you can put underneath the bike to trigger the thing in the road?

Gorilla25 · January 6th, 2012, 11:40 PM

a lot of ppl say its bogus

Gorilla25 · January 6th, 2012, 11:45 PM

hey..its friday night...what are ur guyses excuses for being on the web?....me?..im waiting for my fiance to get off work

Mountain Dew · January 6th, 2012, 11:48 PM

I do not have a working bike.

Oh, and my one friend is on the mainland for vacation :3

Gorilla25 · January 7th, 2012, 12:12 AM

Mountain Dew · January 7th, 2012, 12:15 AM

Lol nah. Sadly, I really mean one friend :/

from what i read in other threads, it was about weight issue. Bike isnt heavy enough to trigger stoplights.=(

Mountain Dew · January 7th, 2012, 12:48 AM

Weight? Aren't most of the light sensors a circuit sensor, rather than pressure sensor?

Gorilla25 · January 7th, 2012, 01:12 AM

depends...some are weight sensors and some are inductor-type sensors

some times it seems my bike can trigger the light. for those that don't change, i tried putting the kickstand on the line, but that doesn't work.

about the stop light turn thing. i thought it was two cycles. i just go after one though.

oh and i am on call, so i am just vegging at home. i am off call from 8a-noon tomorrow, so if the hospital doesn't call me in over night, i plan on trying out my new ak-47 at koko head.

Gorilla25 · January 7th, 2012, 02:12 AM

how much was the ak? did u get it online? do you own lots? I havent shot in a while. I still have my first gun since the class a while back.

rz3r0 · January 7th, 2012, 02:19 AM

Nice to see you on the road AJ.

Sound Wave · January 7th, 2012, 02:26 AM

aj, i did look at the pws, but i ended up getting a noveske afghan with the stainless steel barrel.

mark, i think the ak was like $750. i got my 3 firearms from ogc. the ak is an arsenal.

then i got a glock 34. those are the only 3 i got. gotta stop buying for now.

Sound Wave · January 7th, 2012, 02:36 AM

Gorilla25 · January 7th, 2012, 04:16 PM

r0-Nice seeing you too...i caught up 2 u then wondered who it was...after looking ur helmet, boots, and jacket, i realized was u and rode closer.

Gary - Very nice! did you end up going to the range today?

Sound Wave · January 8th, 2012, 12:34 AM

nah, didn't go. got called in over night and ended up waking up at 11 am. hopefully next weekend.

Kstorm21 · January 8th, 2012, 12:43 AM

Okay so this is totally not the place to put this but I tried to create a new post and it said I couldn't post. Anywho, what do you guys think about a bike someone is selling that the title says it's salvaged but everything has been fixed?? Check out this CL ad.

http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/mcy/2781935861.html

I know for a little more $ I could buy a brand new one. WDYT???

Mountain Dew · January 8th, 2012, 12:52 AM

I'd stay away from it.

I saw it posted sometime in November. There's obviously a reason it didn't sell.

Sound Wave · January 8th, 2012, 12:54 AM

dont do it. you will have a hard time selling it when you outgrow the bike.
