Hi Guys,
It's been a while since I've posted here. But Tom Repetti @trepetti and I put together a ride event through the MSTA, centered in Milford PA, and we thought that we would invite anybody who's more or less in the area. The event will run from check-in on Thursday Aug. 1 through...
Our season finished up at the end of October. The MT-03 was returned to the dealer without a scratch. For my peace of mind, I had equipped it with a crash protection kit from Wometech. I removed it before returning the bike. We're hoping to get another one for the '22 season. The availability...
This past weekend Tom Repetti and I hosted some guys from the MSTA (Motorcycle Sport Touring Assoc) for a Friday / Saturday ride out of Milford PA. It was great.
So, the first day, Tom was leading and I was sweeping, using Sena Coms (until Tom switches to Cardo). Tom says "the road is clear...
Original Title: Who are you, and what did you do with my wife?
Before I start the story, please understand that my wife is a wonderful person :thumbup: and has been surprisingly supportive ever since I gingerly mentioned that I was, you know, maybe thinking of buying a bike. (I was riding when...
2020 MT-09 with absolutely no mods. And it's BLUE!!!
My FZ6 now belongs to a neighbor who promised that he'll take care of her. I'll be watching him.
It's a seller's market. MT-09's are rare and disappear quickly. The seller managed to look happy for this pic. And he should because he got to...
Our local Yamaha/Honda/Suzuki dealer managed to lend us a 2020 MT-03 for the season.
It's a NICE little bike. I think it would be a great starter bike. But, it's not the best trainer bike.
Why no the best? This thing has a LOT of torque and very capable brakes. Both are less than optimal for...
Wow!!! I am amazed.
Not about the tire, but I never under ANY circumstances would have expected a tire thread to turn into a wedding thread.
Will wonders never cease?!?!?!
Everything that Scott and Gary said is great insight on the FZ6.
Regarding insurance, it shouldn't be too bad. I pay about $90/YEAR with GEICO - but I'm an old guy and I get a 20% discount for being an MSF instructor. And I stay at Holiday Inn Express whenever I can...
As a young guy, you'll...
Nice topic!
I ride solo most times I'm out. Whenever I can, I ride with a buddy who lives across the street. Sadly, I'm going to be losing him soon when he moves to VA. But I also ride with groups. One is Ohioriders.net, though that one is dissolving and its been a while since they held an...
You're welcome. Glad I took those pictures.
It's great that even if you forget to cancel them after a small lane change, or if you restart them by accident, that they turn themselves off after about 20 seconds.
Enjoy! I sure do.
I couldn't ride this morning, so here I am on the forum, and in a humorous mood.
@trepetti : All of my additions are done one of those two ways.
Tom's bike in holiday trim...
@Gary in NJ : ...lots of zip ties
Gary's rear during a tire change, and maybe after.
Well, anyway, I thought it...
Hi Rishi, and welcome to the forum. Congrats on getting a great bike, and a BLUE one, at that!
We used to have a handy search tool where we could look up members - which would have been useful to find other members from nearby your location. But I cannot seem to find it. We had a big rework of...
Ade,
On the eastern beaver site, when you specify the plugs you also specify how many pins you want. I'd get a few extras. Even with having bought a specific crimper I botched a few crimps and was happy to not have to try to flatten out the mangled pin.
