    Unicorn Bike - Chain Mileage

    Funny. just noticed it. I typed that on my phone and it changed "original" to "oriental" demn phone. Fixed. As for the maintenance, I said that I got to replace the sparks. Didn't ride yet to see the difference though. I also replaced the chain/sprockets. No difference in riding. 530 chain is...

    Airhawk seat pad

    I don't know what do I do wrong, but it doesn't really works for me. If I inflate it a bit more - I'm rolling front-to-back. If I inflating it less - it's not much better than sitting on the stock seat. Dono.

    Anyone with UBER user experience

    I worked for Uber when was between jobs. Thank God for such company where you can have a job any time. I liked driving for it cas you have no boss to report to, stress free, and you make your own hours. However, with the rates UberX has, you can't make a serious living on if you have mortgage...

    Unicorn Bike - Chain Mileage

    I think it's normal. I just changed chain and sprockets and spark plugs at 28k miles (45k km), and all were still in good shape. Original brake pads still fine.

    Bike developed vibration

    I thought it was coming from an old chain so I replaced it together with sprockets, but the vibration remains. Alignment looks ok, and oil change done few months ago. The vibration is steady from 7k and remains steady at 8, 9, and above. Spark plugs? Rear tire out of balance? I suspect it's...

    How To Tie Down in Uhaul Truck

    Maybe you can also rent an open bike trailer (only $15), or a small covered one (just don't say you'll put a bike in there), and hook it up to the truck. It has all the hooks you need, and you can put some extra stuff in the trailer as well.

    Bike developed vibration

    Up until recently my bike was running vibration free, but lately I noticed that when approaching 7k it starting to vibrate and it continues all the way up. I can feel it on a bar, seat/tank, footpegs and engine guards. It's not terrible, but somewhat annoying. It pulls just as strong though, but...

    Don't Give Them An Inch

    Passing in the same lane is a common practice in Europe. But I see no issue with it if done right, providing that you and the driver expecting it. The same with bikes. I rereally change lanes to pass a bike (normally on his left) , just make sure that he sees you. Thinking about your...

    My thoughts after 2 month on FZ6 2009

    I have an 06 version and the heat is none existent in any weather, no matter what I wear. The only time when I can feel just a little warm, is in heavy rush hour traffic. Feels just a bit on a side where the water pomp is. I ride a lot 2up and my wife had never complain about the heat. That...

    Knee Dragging and the Law....

    I wouldn't think so. As long as you're not drastically over the speed limit, who can tell you how to control the bike, or lean angle you have to take...

    Gas tank reserve

    Another thing that I lately noticed, is that my bike rinse better (livelier) if I put brand name gas like Shell, BP, Mobile, etc. Over the no-name brands. Especially on a warmer weather (80+). Dono, maybe it's air/fuel mixture plays role... or just my impression....

    Airhawk R vs New Seat?

    I have airhawk 2 and use it for long rides. Sure better than stock seat. You need to learn what volume of air is good for you. Not to over or under inflate it. Got it for about 85$. I look at it as a temp solution. It adds to the seat hight and not waterproof. Sure an aftermarket seat...

    A hole in the case...?
