For me, getting a motorcycle license itself is too much of a hassle for me.
Written tests, Practical tests, I don't want to study and practice. But considering of earning it some day. An anime about motorcycles. This isn't about playing a card game on motorcycles, but about female teen students riding on motorcycles. I don't know what else to say. |

This isn't a show about breaking speed records, that is why the only proper race in the show was extremely silly to the point of like watching an episode of Topgear race, like the one where they raced caravans. Yes, going fast is part of it, but there is a reason only Raimu really end up focusing on going fast. The episode even spelled out that motorbikes are extremely impractical and that it really isn't very good as a form of transportation. If you just want to go from A to B, the Bike shouldn't be the first choice. But that's why it is a hobby; you ride it to enjoy it.

Episode 1
This was more hilarious than I expected lol. Sakura started off as one of those annoying stupid MCs. Seriously, she was acting like an elementary schooler while on her way to high school. But she quickly became a fun girl. Now I don't hate her as much as I did in the first few minutes lol. Curly haired girl was finding reasons to convince Sakura that bike riding is awesome and the creepy helmet senpai just took her on a bike ride. That was the best way to convince her. Lol the talking Honda bike. That was funny. "Treat your bike like you would treat a man" Lol. What was up with all the Suzuki hate? I am not a bike lover so I don't know. Is Suzuki really that bad or do these fellows just hate Suzuki that much? Although they kinda made up for it with that logo placement This had a lot of fun moments. Even though I don't know the slightest thing about motorcycles, this is a keeper. |

They're fast, nimble, well-balanced, a scratcher's bike with a narrow engine and very responsive to the throttle. They're excellent on twisty mountain roads in the hands of an enthusiast swinging it left and right as the road bends. Kind of expensive, but sweet rides.
Spoiler for video:
They also break. A lot. They go wrong. A lot. Compared to other bikes they need more regular maintenance and they still break. A lot. And the parts are expensive, and you need to wait for them to be delivered from Italy, by camel or other slow freight. The Mechanic Masters of Ducati are rare and expensive too, and working on them yourself is a recipe for disaster. I expect the anime will continue to put the boot into Ducati. Good.

Theres a old saying, "Want to become a motorcycle mechanic, then buy a Ducati"
The Suzuki hate is because the GSXR is the bike of choice for hooligans and college bros that like to wear sandles, shorts, and popped collar polos because they make awesome riding gear lol. Don't get me wrong their are people like that in every brand its just Suzuki is more popular to make fun of. |

The current hate on the bike community is towards the Honda RC213VS mainly by idiots who know nothing about a GP bike being limited by EPA (easily removeable). Honda doesn't even make money selling these at 200k and people still think they could build a faster and cheaper bike from market parts lol. |
