I just moved to the area and I am looking for someplace I can go out and enjoy myself a little bit. Everything I have seen so far is just urban hell/highways/destroyed roads. Any help would be appreciated.
I went out to go to class and as I was gearing up and walking around my bike I noticed my rear tire looked funny. I get down to check it out and it is flat :banghead::banghead:. I tried to find a puncture and could not find anything so I put some air in it, check the pressure and let it sit for...
The company doing it had a conflict with the church that they use their parking lot so we have to do six hours of the riding portion today at 95 degrees... I think I might die. Any tips on how to stay cool in all that gear while barely moving? They said we get breaks every hour or so so the only...
Not sure how much time you guys spend around killboy.com but here is a link to one of his pictures of some insane guy on an FZ6 running around the tail of the dragon.

Well my bike hit 5000 miles today and I could not find anyone in town willing to do an oil change for under 65 dollars or before april 11th so I decided I would try to do it myself. Keep in mind I have never fixed anything mechanical in my life, never changed oil in anything so this is actually...
So far I have lost half of the bolts that hold the battery cover down and now one of the small aluminum (I think its Al) squares that allows the bolt that holds down the negative lead to bite. Anyone know how I can identify these bolts and where I can get them replaced? As for the negative lead...
I did not notice them squeaking when I put her away for winter, but they day I broke her out and was moving her around I noticed the front break seems to be very squeaky. I had the dealership look at it while it was in for service and they said that everything looked alright (shocked me, I...
I finally got the chance to go out and ride with my fly racing maverik boots. I like how the fit and how they feel, flexibility could be better but not bad at all. The problem I am running into is I can no longer feel the shifter on my foot. Have any of you experienced this? have any ideas of...
Not sure if this is the right place but some people might be interested in some cheap slip ons I found a link to on ebay.

let me know if I need to move it or anything ;)
Simple question, I own no tools other than what comes with the bike and I am not very good with mechanical items. I can turn most anything into a functioning PC but if it has an engine in it I am at a loss. Long story short, battery died and for the life of me I cannot hill/roll start it. the...
I was out showing one of my friends Carlos the roads that I ride around when I have the time to just go out and forget everything. He rides a Ninja 250R so he likes me to always go first so he doesn't feel like he is slowing me down. Today while out on a road we particularly like called county...
Ok, my bike just hit 4000 miles and it it snowing today. I promised my wife I would put the bike away when it started snowing and I was just wondering would it be beneficial at all to have the service done before storage or after or does it even matter. I plan to fill the bike up with fuel and...
I live in La Crosse Wisconsin so this could be the last weekend I get to ride. I just got my ContourHD so I was testing out different angles and recorded some bits of road my friends and I enjoy. Figured I might as well post em..

lets say, hypothetically, you are very much a beginner on a motorcycle being the only other thing you have ridden in your life is a dirt bike. Then lets say, hypothetically of course, that you are turning into your parking lot and for some reason unbeknownst to all mankind your foot slips off...

Ok, I love the look of the helmet and I am looking for something a little more ventilated for summer riding. My worry is that I dont want an open face helmet because if I put the bike down and land land on my chin I could end up losing my face :confused:. Has...
