I almost got ran over today, at the gas station, not even on my bike, but I was wearing all my gear. I was on my way out of town and needed to get gas. There is one station between my house and the interstate but it is kind of small only 5 pumps. I pulled in behind two cars and waited...

I had my bike parked and under a cover today. Most days I ride the bike since our ridding season is limited, but I was late to work and had a video exporting and needed to leave my computer open while I on my way to work. I got a call from my wife saying, "I might have made a mistake" I assumed...

I purchased a new rear tire, the only shop that is any good is 30 minuted away. I need away to get my tire and bike to the shop any ideas? I would prefer to not have my wife follow me in the car with the tire but if I have to I will, I am also considering taking the wheel off.

I put the bike in storage a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving. I took it out today washed it and checked it over today. I also replaced my uncaged frame sliders with T-rex frame sliders (went down last year and needed to replace the one on the right, I will post the left one in the for sale...

I wrecked my uncaged frame sliders last year and they did an amazing job of saving my bike. Because I couldn't order new ends for mine I ordered new T-rex sliders. they came on one is longer than the other I know that is right, the bolts are also the same length is that right?

I for the first time saw another FZ6 on the road. (I wasn't on my bike it been raining the last couple of days and was taking my truck to a mud hold, which ended in me waiting for my intake to dry out) Any one ridding around Midland today if you where I am always looking for people to ride with.

I rode up north about an hour for the long weekend. Coming home was nuts. Line of cars the whole way in the passing lane 70+ in 55 mph two lane road 90+ in 70 MPH interstate. I tried everything to get a open spot. Very long ride first time to pack the bike up for a trip more than one day...

Are you guys using anything to tether your gps to your bike or do you just trust your mount? If you do use a tether what are you using and where did you get it?

Anybody know what is going on with uncaged, they have all their sliders marked down to $40 and looks like they aren't going to be making any more. I would really like to get a pair of replacement black ends.

Can I damage anything on my bike slip shifting (shifting with out the clutch) I can do it in cars but not sure how to do it with out neutral in between all the gears. I can do it at low rpms slowly getting up to speed wanted to make sure I wasn't going to do any damage to the bike trying it...

I was looking at all of the past posts of fender Eliminator and LEDs and decided it would be nice to have a list of them in one place. If you have either flush mount lights or a FE please post some pictures where you purchased them, the cost, time to install, and all positives and negatives...

Hopeing I can find someone that went down on the other side of the bike then me. I need the end (uncaged only has white). I also need the bolt I bent mine.

I am looking at getting the Scala Rider Q2. Anyone use this? I am going to mainly use it for intercom for me and a passenger. Is it possible for me to hook up an Ipod to it? How well does the phone work and how loud does the speakers get? My helmet has a lost of wind noise.

I adjusted my chain the other day. loosened the axle nut then used the adjustment screws. Went for a ride heard a winding noise and though it would be to tight. Went home adjusted it again then went for a ride today. It sounds like the chain is hitting something metal anytime I slow down it...

I have this strange rattle noise almost like a valve ticking when I am on the throttle at about 4000 rpms. As soon as I let go of the gas it stops. Is this normal? I just bought and still haven't taken it for a good ride yet. I think it is coming from the engine. Even with it in neutral sitting...

We are starting to get a little break in winter up here in Michigan. We had a 45 degree day one of my friends took his bike out for a ride (I was out to but didn't see any cops). While in a parking lot a cop stopped by and told him it is reckless driving to be driving while there is snow on the...

As winter gets longer I am more willing to ride in colder temperatures. How about you guys what is the coldest temp you will ride in? I am about to the point if their is no snow on the road I want to go for a ride. I don't like to ride in temps below 55 I get tired of people's comments at gas...

I have decided to get a pair of Uncaged frame sliders. I would like the look of the cheap FZ6 slider on Ebay but I would like them to work if I drop the bike in a parking lot. My question is any not happy with the uncaged sliders? What would be the advantage of the swing arm sliders? Any one...
