    My CBR600F4i Review

    Had around 2 months now to ride around on my new to me CBR600F4i, a 2002 model with 49,000 km when I picked it up. Had to put in a fair bit of work, fixing the valves up, fixing the CCT, replacing 9/10ths of the hoses, doing a starter valve (TB) sync, and lowering the absurd amount of oil that...

    Got Out On The New Girl!

    Finally got my bike taken care of in regards to safety, some minor shop work (new front tire, front pads, and plate lights), and insurance (which tripled due to policy changes - thanks, Onterrible. :thumbdown: ) Took it out for a spin around some country roads north of my house, and it's been a...

    new Yamaha Test Ride

    A riding buddy of mine has a 2015 Yamaha R1M (#22 out of 500 in the world). This is my friend that has the Gamma 2 stroke you were all drooling over awhile back. This summer he offered to let me ride it. I chickened out. He wanted to ride my Street Triple R. After I got home that day I...

    I Lost The Love Today

    I went out today to Mosport, and partook in a number of bike related activities up to and including test rides. I rode a CTX700 (cruiser) at the Honda tent which was fun to try and go fast on, all the while scraping pegs hard through corners. Following this, I got onto a bike which had been...

    Uneven RPMs when cruising in lower gears

    I've noticed when cruising at a constant speed with the throttle staying in one position in the lower gears, mainly 1-3, the RPMs like to fluctuate a bit. Not enough to cause any noticeable jolt/chugging feeling, but I can definitely hear it. Is this normal on our bikes? Seems like other inlines...

    On/Off, harsh EFI

    So, I've been somewhat distracted over the past few years after getting my 2007 FZ6, got bored with street riding and started focusing more on dualsport/offroad riding. After finally getting a pair of bikes that are supremely comfortable and fun to ride off-road, I feel like I can pay more...

    2015 Daytona Bike Week. Day 4 (demo'd GSXS 750, FJR, Versys 1k, VStrom 1k)

    Sorry.. not carrying my camera with me, as it sucks to ride with it over my shoulder and my phone is useless at taking pictures, so I'll use stock photos. GSXS 750: Fantastic bike. Smooth trans.. and controls work well.. suspension feels OK. Much better fueling than FZ bikes. Motor is...

    Fuel Hose

    Hey Guys My fuel hose burst and I replaced it with a aftermarket one. But after replacement, the 'feeling' is not the same. Dragging seems rough and not smooth as before. So my question is, does using aftermarket fuel hose affect performance?

    [OIL-Review] Castrol Power RS Racing 4T

    Hi all Recently I changed the oil on my fz6 from motul 7100 to this Castrol Oil, got the 10w50 grade. From what I can tell now, is the engage of the clutch is much more precise and firm (it slipped a couple of times with the motul under very hard acceleration) gear changes are very...
