    Lane splitting/filtering videos

    Now, on the topic of lane splitting in general, and the dislike of it by so many cage-drivers in particular, I just don't get it...I would bet anything the majority of drivers - if they *could* maneuver their cages in such a way as to better move through traffic - would...and DO, when the space...

    Lane splitting/filtering videos

    Seriously...WTF was THAT??? I have a headache and heart palpitations from watching the Russian video...and I couldn't stop. I feel...violated.... :Flash:

    Do you keep a mental note of what gear you're in??

    I don't normally, though it doesn't take long before a stiletto gets caught on a peg or the nylons start pulling at my leg hair before I realize I am clearly in the wrong gear... :BLAA:

    FS: Top Sellerie Seat FZ6

    I want it bad enough I can taste it, but the acquisition department (read:wife) says it's not approved for funding ATM.... VERY disappointed, given the price, but alas, the stars are not aligned for me. Provided it doesn't go fast (and I suspect it will), I'll keep working it...but with...

    Count the stupid

    I was careful not to come off as a tool; unfortunate as it is (and it is) he worked very hard for the result. It was not an accident, it was probably a long history of questionable decisions culminating in a crap-ass ending by anyone's measure. But he DID choose amongst a limited number of...

    Count the stupid

    Main reason I am against helmet laws...it works against the forces of Darwin, as noted before. :P I do not wish ill-will on anyone, but, dang it, this guy got what he EARNED...

    Dropped it....0 mph!!

    Ugh. I did it at work, as I was leaving. Sat in the saddle, popped the kickstand up, shot off a text message, packed the phone into the tank bag, put on gloves, and thought, "Wonder if I locked the top case?" Leaned to get off the bike to check, and with style and grace, down she went...

    Grip glue?

    +1 on the hairspray. Hairspray rocks; let it "cure" overnight, holds tight, and relatively easy to remove should you need to. If you can find it, Aquanet is like the JB Weld of hairsprays.... :BLAA:

    FZ6 Touring Windshield Concern

    Love my MRA, usually set it two notches down from fully extended up. 6'1" and I find it to be the best balance between the stock screens and the potential of "no" airflow to the body. Consistent airflow up to super-legal speeds on closed circuits, according to professional drivers who tell me I...

    Safer Roads? They're kidding right?

    I've been saying the privilege of driving should be proceeded by the experience of motorcycling for years, if for no other reason than more people than not are too lazy and/or distracted to stick to the overhead of riding a bike for any length of time, and would soon give-up the pursuit...

    Looking for "sportier" handlebars

    I went with FZ1 bars for the less-angled grip position, and was completely satisfied with THAT result. I use 1" up, 1" back risers as well. My only complaint: the bars require being turned "up" a tad to prevent the controls from hitting the tank at full lock. You can feel the slight...

    how worried about this should i be?

    I might even be inclined to trim it a tad if there is a "flapper"...loose material can be a hazard, but that there is a new "valley" now is no different from an integrity perspective than the numerous "valleys" the manufacturer put there.
