    The Great Pumpkin was a Turkey this year

    As a refresher (and for you newbies), my brother in law owns a pumpkin patch in eastern Illinois, about two hours away from us. Every year for the last ten years, he and his kids have sneaked over to our house in the middle of the night and "pumpkined" our front yard. This has always happened...

    The Odd Cager Activity Thread

    I was reading a post about yet another biker that was nearly a hood ornament, and the inattentive cagers that nearly took him out. I thought it might be a fun idea to post up the most unusual things we have seen drivers doing behind the wheel. (Yes, this is STILL a family friendly forum, but...

    Bike and I are OK, but my pride isn't.

    So it's time for me to join the rest of you members of THE HALL OF SHAME. :( I had my first spill last weekend. It was cloudy, chilly, and the roads were slick. I am a VERY cautious rider, so I was quite surprised that I ended up in a gentle low side slide. Here is my story: I came up on...

    I came face to face with a Monster today!

    I took some friends out to the track to watch the motorcycle races, and Ducati was out with about 15 bikes, offering test rides!! I rode a silver Monster 1100. It was FUN to try out something different, since the FZ6 is my first (and only) bike. But ultimately, it made me really appreciate my...

    I am so excited that I will now have a permanent riding partner! Jeff bought a Ninja 650R today. OK, so it's not an FZ, but it's still pretty!! Since he just finished the BRC and hasn't ridden on the streets yet, I had to ride it home for him! Oh, the sacrifices we make for our...

    What have you named your FZ6?

    I have seen a few posts where people have mentioned the name of their bike, but couldn't find a thread dedicated to this. I was curious what names you all have given your bikes (and why). (My apologies if this is a repeat of a previous thread.)

    My first time on the track!

    OK, I am a total newbie (2 months, 500 miles) and decided to sign up for the "Test the Track" course, so I can learn more about cornering and leaning my bike, in a controlled environment. I had a GREAT time, and learned a lot. Towards the end of the second session, I even scraped my toe and...

    My first ride to work today! :)

    Well, I was a bit of a bundle of nerves, but I rode my bike to work today for the first time. I'm sure it's no biggie to most of you, but, being a newbie, I was a little intimidated at venturing out in 20 miles of traffic, and crossing the Mississippi River on a busy bridge. I did fine...
