Howdy Folks! Long time Rider & Reader, First time Poster
A Bit about my situation: I bought an FZ6 (2004) back in 2017. It had some light work done, but it ran great and I loved it. I've had a ton of fun with it, and never had any real issues. Near the End of this summer (2020) some folks...
Hello, fellow riders!
Please let me know what are your favorite websites or applications for planning your trips and travel with motorcycle? Not only the routes, but also with an option to see some motorcycle friendly accommodations, places to visit, cafes, bars or that kind of stuff.
Hi!
I really love to ride bikes but the problem is I have sensitive ears that are prone to tinnitus. Just bought a pair of noise reduction ear plugs/ear piece and they do not fit well in my ears. I'm planning to get new ones but I'm torn between these two brands...
Aloha!
So after a lot of prayer and deliberation over buying a motorcycle, my wife and I felt it necessary to "live within our means" and just go with a simple, cheap but reliable motorcycle. I feel as if it was a blessing but I did want to seek wisdom from other FZ6 owners before I pull the...
Today was there grand opening of the national retail chain Cycle Gear. It's about time we get our own store. There were many vendors including our state's motorcycle safety program which I helped manage our booth, recruiting new, returning and experienced riders. For those who are not familiar...
I read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance back in the '70s - and have just finished re-reading it after getting back on a bike.
This book is worth your time if you wonder about living in a world increasingly dominated by technology - and the alarming lack of authenticity it engenders in...
Park in a parking stall!
That's right, casino security approached me instructing me that I had to park my motorcycle in motorcycle parking. I'm all for it, but considering the casino lot was nearly empty on a
Sunday morning, and motorcycle parking was located at the very end of the parking...
Here's another video taken during this fall during Reno's Street Vibrations Motorcycle Rally. Great food, music, vendors and competition showcasing me, of course.

It’s hard to believe that it had been 9 years since I took my first cross country motorcycle trip, and now I’m back from my fifth (Act I, Act II, Act III, Act IV). As we visit more and more of the country, it becomes difficult to plan a new route, but luckily there is still a lot of the country...
Here is my problem!
Until January I had a job where I worked with the clothes I wanted, so I could use my motorcycle all the time... but now comes the other part.
Since January I work for a company and I need to be dressed with a business suit (except for friday), I bought another car to...
First of all, hello everyone again! I haven't posted or even lurked here in a while but I hope to do more so now that riding season is slowly making its way back. It's almost June which means my annual re-up of insurance so here's one of my famous(?) threads on rate premium comparisons. ENJOY...
I want to buy the "Bike It Premium Motorcycle Cover" for my fz6 fazer s2 (2007) and i am unsure about what size to select. I am between medium and large and i want a tight fit to my motorcycle. Has anyone tried this cover to help me with the size? My motorcycle doesn't have a back case. I afraid...
Hey everyone, i'm new here! I passed my Motorcycle training course at a local college this past year and have been looking into buying my first bike. I found a used 2008 FZ6 for sale for $2500 with 15,000 miles. I don't think it has any modifications but it does have a decent sized dent in the...
Hey peeps. It's been a WHILE and I thought I'd give a personal update. Those of you who know me, know I sold my FZ6 back in 2012 when I took a job with Sprint, got divorced, and had no garage. Well, in 2013, I took a job with a Harley-Davidson dealership and shortly after, bought a 2009 XR1200...
