    POS kickstands...

    yeah i just bend over and pick mine up too. To the OP, that kickstand does look terrible, i would either cut the stock one shorter and weld it or buy a different brand. you can get aluminum bolt on kickstand pads on ebay for $25 that are nice or you could epoxy one of the black plastic...

    Few small mods and random cell pics

    Added some wheel stripes, I ended up having to buy 3 different sets before I found some that matched. I think these look pretty good, I tried the rascal graphix and they were more of a forest green so they went back, I then bought the customTAYLOR Patented High Intensity Grade GREEN Reflective...

    Taking inappropriate equipment inappropriate places

    I don't get it. you rode your bike across a bridge and took photos of a nearly dried up creek? What is inappropriate about that?

    VR's Trip To The Land Of The Rising Sun

    That is one of the first things I mention when talking about Japan, it was so clean. Tokyo looked like someone washed all the buildings and vacuumed the streets every day it was so clean lol. When we were there it amazed me that every time we pulled out our map to see where we wanted to go it...

    VR's Trip To The Land Of The Rising Sun

    That is an amazing thing you did for your Mom and your Father, my condolences. I LOVE Japan, I was there 2 years ago. Do you speak Japanese? I do a little and a couple of my family members speak, read and write Japanese but I am just on a very basic conversational level. I can not wait to...

    Dyna Plug - no so dynomite

    lol insert it when it is inflated? How do you do that if the tire is already flat because it has a hole in it? This works fine, is proven to work and is super cheap:

    Cell photos trying out new Pilot Power 3 tires

    i like the tires a lot so far, i have a set of bt023 tires for the er6n. i hear they are pretty good too and the price was REALLY good on them.

    I have an er6n if that counts, the names are just a marketing thing.

    Cell photos trying out new Pilot Power 3 tires

    i should have stopped and taken photos of the town, now that was creepy. the entire town is like an 1800's coal town. all the houses are exactly alike, all white, all have small steps going to the front door, all have a board walk going from the front door to the boardwalk that leads to the...

    Cell photos trying out new Pilot Power 3 tires

    We went up to the radio observatory also but we were not able to get any photos because it was closed :( (or maybe aliens were having their mother's day party there and it was invitation only)

    Cell photos trying out new Pilot Power 3 tires

    Thanks! It is a lot of fun, we are taking it down south soon to see how the mountains are down that way. We dropped off the ER6N today to get some scheduled service done. Then once I get it back I will be mounting some 023 battleaxe tires on it for her.

    Cell photos trying out new Pilot Power 3 tires

    Took out the bike to try out the brand new PP3 tires. Cell phone pics of our 10.5 hour ride, seen about 8 cars on the road, redlined the bike many times and had a great time. Excuse the coating of bugs on the bike. Mounted the tires using my new harbor freight tire mounter with motorcycle...

    TCP Seat Cowl - Where can I get one?

    They are a rare item, I never found one the right color for mine when I had it.

    I have to keep telling myself its not a 600

    I do not recall ever saying I redline the bike in town, that is what YOU read into it lol. It does not harm the bike at all to redline it while riding. Again common sense dictates that yes if you start the bike and rev it to redline and leave it there until something breaks but of course...

    I have to keep telling myself its not a 600

    I think a couple of your false teeth fell out onto the keyboard when you furiously typed that lol. Nothing wrong with hitting that redline, if there was there would be a yellow line or warning line before the redline on your tach. I am heading out in a few to redline the bike if anyone...

    I have to keep telling myself its not a 600

    lol, no need to be so cranky in your old age. keep it slow, under 5k and everything will be peachy. i even typed this slow for you so you could read it and so it would be safe. back to reality and the OP, how is that fz1 doing?

    Power commander v maps?

    i tuned my fz6 with a lc1 wideband and an old netbook. the innovate lc2 now is a great one to go with or just get a few minutes on a dyno and tune it yourself between runs, it is super easy and will keep you from potentially causing engine damage from a bad tune.

    Drive In Movie (Upstate NY about 1.5 hours or less from NYC)

    lol that is pretty cool, I never thought of going to one on the bike. we used to have one here about .5 miles from my house but it closed down which really sucks. the nearest one is about 1 hour away now.
