Friends say motorcyclist's throttle was stuck before fatal crash in Grand Rapids - Grand Rapids News - The Latest News, Blogs, Photos & Videos – MLive.com He graduated with me, didn't know him very well though. First I heard he was drinking, then that his throttle got stuck. I can't imagine...

So I bought the bike (05) with an aftermarket led light, it kinda does a ghostrider like flash thing when im not on the brakes. When i hit them, it flashes. However, today for the 2nd time, a cager told me my tail light was out (and brake light). When i turn the bike off and back on, it works. i...

So I was heading home after a St. Patty's day party (No, I didn't drink :thumbup: ), at about 1:00AM. Pretty major strip in Kalamazoo, by the college, but it was mostly deserted with a few partygoers driving around. Most of the lights around here switch to flashing yellow on the main roads, and...

Hey guys, I want to replace my main fairing after scratching it pretty bad when I dropped it. I'm a little unsure of how to take it off though, and it isn't mentioned in the service manual that I have, or the owners manual. I'm talking about the main fairing that hold the windshield. I've got...

I know this seems like a stupid question, but I'm still new to this whole bike thing... How do you guys wash your bikes? I live in an apartment so I can't hook up a hose, is it ok to use one of those powerwashers at the do-it-yourself carwash? I know to oil the chain afterwards, any other...

Do you guys follow the shifting schedule in the manual? It says to shift from 1st to second at 15mph, etc. It seems that if you follow it, you never really get into the power band. If I recall correctly, it has you in 6th gear at around 50mph. The manual says you should always shift at those...
