I own a 49cc Honda Metropolitan (2002). After 1 month, I have decided that keeping up with traffic is safer. I want to upgrade to 150cc and no more. I have learned that turning on 2 wheels is more "leaning" into the turn than actually turning the front wheel. Is a trike the same? Is it more stable? Logic seems to say yes, it should be, but I've never been on one.
What is the most dependable (well built) 150cc scooter on the market, and is a "trike" actually safer?
Should I buy a new Kia or stick with my SUV?
Want a brand new Kia Sodona. Have a 2001 Pathfinder with 126K miles and bought it one year ago. It's a good car and can easily put on 300K miles with some work done to it. It will be paid off in two years. I want a brand new Kia Sodona minivan. It comes with lots of rebates, and I'm just starting a family. If I took out a 4 year loan, my monthly payment would be $25 cheaper than I'm paying now, except my Pathfinder would be paid off in two years (if it lasts that long as it has some rust and needs some work) instead of 4. If I took out a 4.5 year loan, my payment would be $100 less than I am paying now. I would be paying more, obviously, for the Sedona in the long run but I would be in a brand new vehicle which would be reliable, can take family vacations with it and have a much easier time transporting the kids in it as opposed to the SUV. Also, I would be able to save money for the emergency fund. What makes more sense to you/what should I do?
Bad gas…Carbs…Plugs…Coils??? 1992 CBR F2 problem?
So i've been working on a "street legal" race bike for about a year now. 1992 Honda CBR F2 600cc. Full airtech body panels, K&N filter, Vance and Hines gixxxer style custom exhaust, 520 Vortex sprokets, gold DID chain, Dynojet kit…AGM Battery…NGK plugs. Anyway the problem arose when I replaced the battery this summer. I pulled the fairings to check everything since i was relpacing the battery…all except the front fairing. The bike ran well before the battery replacement. Reassembled the whole bike and now it won't run correctly. WHen the plugs are cleaned/new it starts up the first touch of the ignition. after about a minute the idle slows and it dies…then it will not restart. Since this happened I pulled the carbs to check the jets/internals for dirt/damage. I wanted to change the jets anyway (went up 3000 ft in elevation so I switched from DJ126 to DJ122 mains…was running a bit rich) all the floats were good the jets were clean and the diphragms were intact. The gas is about 1-2 years old it had stable in it. It's too old I know so thats getting changed this weekend. When it starts up it sounds like a parallel twin and only revs to about 8-9k WOT. Redline is 14-16k. I pulled the plugs to check and cylinders 1 and 4 are sooty…after the the bike starts then all 4 are wet (gas). I pulled the plugs and checked for spark on all cylinders….all have spark (blue) so i don't think its the plugs or the coils. Could it just be the old gas? All carb work/adjustments were done after the starting problems…I haven't started it since. I also reset the carbs to Dynojet specs for my new altitude. Any suggestions

Im an 18 year old male, if that matters. I am getting my car soon, yes i can afford the car, maintenance, and insurance. I live in an area with weather from SUN to SNOW to RAIN. Which is best by means of, EXTERIOR, INTERIOR, LOOKS, FEATURES, COMFORT, RELIABILITY, DRIVE FEEL, SAFETY, ETC.
2011 WRX or 2011/2012 Camaro Insurance?
Which car would cost more to insure?
I ask this because im not sure if its cause the WRX has a smaller engine (2.5L) and is turbocharged vs a Camaro which has a V6 and a bigger engine (3.6L).
I am not sure which car I should get next year, but its definitely gonna be one of these 2. The Camaro is cheaper than the WRX but if the insurance ends up being cheaper on the WRX I will most likely buy that car instead
