I don’t know why I feel like this.
I just bought this Honda CBR500R brand new from the dealer. I just don’t feel excited about this bike like I thought I would and it has nothing to do with the bike and everything to do with me.
While looking into purchasing the bike, I’ve been all over the web looking at reviews, reading articles on safety, reading the good and the bad. It never hit me until now because I really didn’t think about the potential. I know there are inherent risks to riding, but for some reason it’s hugely bothering me now.
So many things…
Everyone I know has gone down at some point except for one exception. Drivers around here are completely insane.
Why hasn’t this bothered me before? I have NO clue. I’ve driving around on a PCX150 scooter and never felt like this at all.
I only know one person that rides personally, everyone else gave it up.
This seriously shouldn’t bother me, but it does. The probability of me going down or dying on this or any bike is massively high compared to other forms of transportation. I’m seriously just looking to get around, I’m not a thrill seeker.
If I keep the bike, I’ll most likely rarely ride it out of my own personal fear of the damn thing. If I return it to the dealer (really *sell* it back to the dealer) I will lose quite a bit of money… but nothing compared to what could happen on a really bad day.
