    GPS Reviews

    Eric I don't know much about the tomtom rider 2 but I have the Zumo 500. Whilst looking into GPS's a while back the main differences were that the garmin plots a route based on waypoints, whereas tomtom plots a route based on via points. The Garmin can use an endless (or a very high number...

    this got me thinkin

    The new FZ6R is redesigned, although the basics is from a R6 the head is totally new, which also gives it more torque but a lower top hp. So unfortunately a conversion would be a bit more complicated. Quote "Derived from the FZ6's engine, the FZ6R's inline-four acquires new crankcases in...

    FZ6R opinions from anyone..

    It also got good reviews in the Dutch press (Motor and Promotor). It was said to be easier to ride than the FZ6 (and they said it was less "nervous" than the FZ6, smoother clutch and gearbox and more torque at lower revs). All round great beginners bike with ABS as standaard (in Holland anyway)...

    October Road Trip Nordschleife, Trier, Paris, Gent

    Really great photo's Andre :thumbup: glad you posted them. Went to Trier last year with a group of bikers from my work (stayed in a youth hostel in the center of town), I believe it was even capital of the western Roman empire at one time. Great riding roads around those parts :rockon:

    Went for a ride today...

    Great pics, I like the pic of Lindos from a distance. :thumbup:. When I went on holiday there (about 8 years ago now) I remember the northern half of the Island having pretty good paved roads but the south was all gravel roads. We hired a Suzuki 4X4 (cage) so we could drive around the whole...
