    Trade Yamaha "Comfy" Seat

    So how's the trade going? :D thought i'd check in to make sure i havent missed out on anything. If whoever has it now decides they may wanna trade back to stock, i'll be willing to give it a shot.

    WTB: Belly Pan/Chin Fairing

    Hey all. Looking to buy a belly pan/chin fairing/whatever else you want to call it for an 09' fz6. My bike's black, so i'd prefer matching, but for the right price ill repaint to match. I'll go ahead and give a heads up, I'm semi picky... I like the yamaha OEM and powerbronze. But i'm always...

    Hungry, Poor, and Inept. Cooking thread for men!

    DISCLAIMER: The following is not healthy so don't sue me if you get fat. So back in my college days..(last year) this girl invited me over for dinner and said she was cooking "Tuna Surprise." I was a little scared at first but, she was hot and i was hungry. Anywho, this is the epitome of...

    Might Sell The Fizzer :'(

    If you do sell and the buyer doesnt want it, i'll take the belly pan off your hands for the right price ;) possibly even the TB pipe if you still had stock to sell it.

    Trade Yamaha "Comfy" Seat

    Haha. I guess I'll have to take what i can get. Maybe Chevy will get it and be tired of it by the Aug 24 ride ;) ...if not and TDC gets it...change your mind before saturday so I can snag it before you get far away!

    Trade Yamaha "Comfy" Seat

    I'm not super close to ATL, but I live in Commerce off 85 near tanger outlets. I'd be willing to meet if none of your other offers fall through. OR if chevy decides he wants a stock back, I'll trade you stock for comfy if you get it :D

    Over the Mountain

    Thats the same one I got. Only I picked it up off craigslist. I still enter the giveway thing through gopro every day though with hopes of getting lucky! I havent had much luck with places to put the suction cup on my bike. Most of the areas with a good view have a slight groove or curve and I...

    Major Issue With The2Wheels Levers

    I'm so glad you posted this. I literally had the exact same problem (i think we've chatted in my post about wondering the quality on these previously). I had planned on posting a thread just like this until I saw this one. I use that honda spray cleaner and wax and was thinking it was my fault...

    Over the Mountain

    Which gopro do you have, hero or hero2? Maybe if we had several people with cameras mounted for a big ride (aug 25) we could put all the footage together and do some edits and make a mini promo video for local group rides? It would probably be kinda cheesy and I'm not a great editor but I can...

    2012 Summer Ride - Blood Mountain, Cherohala Skyway, Tail of the Dragon

    Yeah its alot of common roads, mainly a marketing strategy for whoever decided to make a name for the route, but a nice niche for georgia riders nonetheless. I've never road Wolf Pen Gap but sounds like that would be a good one for a quick little ride sometime. Sorry couldn't make it yesterday...

    2012 Summer Ride - Blood Mountain, Cherohala Skyway, Tail of the Dragon

    Another trip we could start putting in the works for say...September? The Gauntlet. It wouldn't be quite as much fun in the twisties, but for a relaxing/less demanding ride just to be on the open road could be nice around September when it cools off. Plus we could add in more stops and not be...

    Over the Mountain

    and GTP love the way you mounted the gopro. Very smart! if i had the balls and mine was more than 3 months old and paid off i'd probable throw some screws in the fairings too...but don't think we're to that point in our relationship yet, she would probably quit running if i tried to screw her...

    Over the Mountain

    I think it was just 17/75/Unicoi Turnpike. When you come out of helen going towards Hiawassee. Maybe this will help...Mainly just the half closest to helen is the good mountain twisties...

    Over the Mountain

    Haha sounds good. I'm surprised he hasnt chimed in yet on this. I've actually never road with knee dragger, so it'd be cool to see somebody in person...from a distance way behind haha! make for some good gopro footage as well. That being said, I guess its settled. When/if we all ride chevy...

    Over the Mountain

    Yeah I was following that thread, it's just so far off I dont even know if I can make it yet haha. As far fast paced, as long as you guys dont mind waiting for me at the bottome I'll try to go and keep up. I'm no knee dragger though! And no, he's a quick rider. On 441 he set his cruise (must...

    Over the Mountain

    I'm not sure the name of the mountain, but when you go through Helen, is the the mountain following on the way to Hiawassee. I'd love to ride Sunday but the g/f let me off last weekend. Gotta go south to visit her this weekend.... do you guys ride every sunday up that way? My friend might want...

    Over the Mountain

    Me and my buddy visited his cabin for the weekend. Did a sped up vide of us crossing the mtn. Sorry the whole video is of a harley, I was on the fz. This was my first time going over the mountain and it was a blast! Shockingly, out of all the riders going the other way, not a single one was...

    My friend the Harley guy...

    What cracks me up is that harley guys that try to start by justifying their bike over yours and bragging.More often than not, they are the ones who try to degrade anything not harley, and they only thing they can say about their bike is, it's a "real" bike or 'Merican (although its manufactured...

    Help! How to adjust preload?

    Another, possibly dumb, question.... what exactly is the preload doing? basically just stiffening the rear coil?

    Help! How to adjust preload?

    So I've been reading several threads on cornering and etc. Aside from tires, the next most influential thing on the bike seems to be suspension and preload adjustment. I'm by no means a race rider (never drug a knee or a feeler) but I enjoy a tight turn as far as I'm comfortable and like to do...
