Hey gang, I went to the track last Monday and my brakes felt terrible. It was all or nothing and they were chattering. I want to know if their is anything I can do to get a more progressive feel. What are the best pads for the track? Thanks, Mike

Hey gang, I need new front suspension badly - leaking oil in gobs. It sounds like the RaceTech treatment is the way to go, perhaps with cartridge emulators and new springs. Does anyone know of a Boston area shop that can do this and you know/trust? I'd like to save on shipping costs and...

I've had this bent rim for at least a year and never had problems with it, no air leaking or anything else. It's time to change the front tire and I'm wondering if I should bother fixing it while the wheel is off?

Hey gang, I got this price quote from my local dealer and wanted your input. They are really nice group of guys/gals and I like to try to bring them business whenever I can. I've always done my own maintenance, but this year we now have 2 little boys and free time is not in my vocabulary...

Good morning gents, I have a question for my British counterparts. Recently, I've been watching a lot of motorcyclenews.com videos on youtube and really enjoying them. They seem to ride more bikes than anyone else and give the same consistent review of each bike with lots of comparisons...

A left low-side crash on my way to work this week has left my poor 2005 FZ6 in rough shape. It was in a rotary going about 20, slid probably 30ft on the frame slider, the bottom of the engine cover, and the left side of my exhaust and top case. Started right up after, drives straight at highway...

Ok, so I tried to search but what do you call them - blinkers? directionals? indicator lights? turn signals? Whatever they are, they don't work on my 2005 FZ6 and I need them for safety....it's either that or I quit my job and just keep riding around the track at Loudon all summer...hmmmmm...

Hey gang, My wife wants to buy an old (1983ish) Porsche 911, preferably a convertible but Targa will do or even sunroof in a pinch. She wants it to be a beater car - looks don't matter, as long as it runs nice and is still fun. Seems like the going rate is about $10000 for one in good...

Anyone ever have trouble with a dead stock horn? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sounds like a loose wire to me but before I go taking things apart, maybe one of you have dealt with this already and tell me the magic fix. Thanks!

Has anyone gone on a motorbike tour in Cali on a rented bike? If so, where did you get it and do you recommend it? For anyone, what was the best tour you've gone on in Cali? We are looking to do a combination of twisty sea-side roads, mountains roads, camping, and hiking. Any suggestions...

Hey guys, Got the RAM Mount from MountGuys.com today and considering the weather (crazy thunderstorms off and on all day), decided it was time to put it on the bike. Haven't road tested yet (see above comment) but it feels rock solid. :thumbup: Mio MOOV 310 - $205 from amazon.com RAM...

Hi folks, Everyone knows that the FZ6 has a distinctive buzz around 5500rpm and it's never been much of a problem for me. I've always thought of it as a "tactile tachometer" letting me know through the bars precisely when she passed through 5500ish rpms. BUT, I just got back from a ride...

Then this T-shirt is for you! The site came up as one of my Gmail ads this morning, thought you guys would appreciate it.

Hi all, I'm new to the site, so maybe I'm missing something REALLY simple, but is anyone else having trouble with the Search function? I've lots, including simple things like "gps" and it keeps saying "Sorry, no results." HELP! Thanks, Mike
