I can recommend the Coretech winter scarab gloves. Just make sure you select the right size - because of the liner they will not stretch to fit like an all-leather glove. These gloves are well armored. For real cold consider handlebar wind deflectors, heated bars or gloves. ;)

Control is an illusion.

Sorry that happened, but glad you are alright. That is the scary part, wondering if someone else is going to run over you. Are you going to look at any different bikes? If you have thought about fixing your FZ6, check out www.kycyclesalvage.com and find an FZ6 with front end damage.

All of the above plus; 1. Yamaha FZ6 Service Manual. Downloads are available here (do a search) or find a hard-copy($10-30) or a CD($5-10) on ebay. 2. Torque wrench (Craftsman Microtork cost me about $60) Enjoy.

What a lot of great ideas! I would second "wrist neutral handlebars" - take a look at what they have done to kayak paddles. These could be adjustable with quick-release cam locks like bicycle wheels. I would like to be able to switch riding position quickly from upright to low. This would...

I can recommend the Alpinestars ACR Airflow textile jacket. :thumbup: But my next jacket will be perforated leather.

Congratulations. The first step is the hardest one. Teaching and learning continue to evolve. The books are better ("Painless Grammer" by Rebecca Elliot) and we now have on-line interactive English instruction. Reading and especially writing will help you master the concepts. At 49 years of...

Nice. Why not put the front/connecting pipe in front of the exhaust headers and protect that part of the engine?

Welcome. Pretty motorcycle. Have you found hwy. 375 on the northshore of Cherokee Lake? I am taking the MSF Experienced Rider course on Saturday at Pellissippi C.C.

Sorry to hear that. I have enjoyed your posts. It sounds like its time to leave your Dad anyway. Best wishes, ender

Sorry to hear about the accident. Hope you heal quickly. Now I'm going to be looking for those backup lights. Best wishes, ender

Garmin Nuvi 200 on a bicycle handle bar mount. Cheap but not waterproof. If it rains: turn it off and pack it or put a ziplock over it and keep going. :thumbup:

Re: Another OIL question 3100 miles with Shell Rotella T full synthetic 5W40, no problems and very happy. :thumbup:

I felt a disturbance in the force.. . . :confused:

Good answers. Best wishes. Remember to breathe and ride occasionally.:thumbup:

My wife made the whole family neck-wraps and they work! We have hot and humid summers but there is a point where hot is just miserable. Our thoughts are with you. We are at 24 degrees F (-4.5C) today but it will warm up this weekend. I bet y'all are glad this "global warming" thing is...

Thank you Steve. All of us are wired for something. Try to avoid a fatal attraction. "How fatal was it?" "Completely." Johnny English, I think.

It must have been a slow news day. I wonder how much the photo sold for? If there is one thing we like more than putting someone on a pedestal, its knocking them down. I used to be righteous until I had children and I realized what sleep deprivation could do to a human being. I used to...
