Hello there, I'm noob rider with a Ninja 300

Love the bike, but still a newbie, hope I'll find some wisdom in the forums.

Cheers

Dude, I didn't know they had 300's in mexico. To be honest I dont remember seeing any bikes when i stayed over there a few years ago. How is it riding on the potholes and "Topes" lol.

dariosaurio · October 24th, 2013, 04:03 PM

Well, kawa brought a few 300 and only a handfull of ABS modells. Mine is an ABS, wasnt easy to find, I had to waited 3 months to get mine.

There are many bikes in México city but mostly 150 ccs for delivery and messaging and a ton of scooters driven by teenagers. Sadly most of the robberys are made in bikes so there is some mixed feelings about bikers.

Roads are mostly unnatended so you can find open swewers, potholes, gravel .... its very tricky

Yeah, riding in rush hour is madness, but weekends are fairly decent to ride.

Here is a clip of me riding saturday morning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qkFDJTY1WU

Welcome to our site, Dario !!!

It seems that you were rolling too fast for your skill level over the Paseo de los Ahuehuetes.

As you will try to stop any fall with your hands first, thick motorcycle gloves are an essential protective gear.

Please, slow down a bit and visit our Riding Skills section
