    Tracer 700 (or FJ-07...)

    http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/products/motorcycles/sport-touring/tracer-700.aspx What are your thoughts on this bike? I rode the FZ-07 and 09 and loved them, but they're more street oriented than "all-around" FZ6. FJ-09 is too tall&balky for me, but FZ6 size is just right. So, I'm waiting on...

    The backward-brain bicycle

    A fascinating experiment in both two-wheeled stability and the human brain itself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFzDaBzBlL0 I've often wondered if motorcyclists have this kind of difficulty when transitioning to a trike, when you have to start steering rather than countersteering...

    What Kind Of Bike Is The FZ6?

    What kind is it? What do you consider it or call it when people ask "so, what kind of bike do you ride?" Being new to motorcycles I have always thought it a sportbike, but seems some riders are very specific about bikes. I like being specific about a few things, too. And when people ask me "so...
