Oh puh-leeeze! You don't need no stinkin' rain gear!

Zune is the media sync software. WP7 is superior to Android. Haven't seen the iPhone 5 yet, but prefer WP7 to iPhone 4. And I'm not asying that because MS is paying me pretty penny. Check it out for yourself: Windows Phone Mango Update | Custom Ringtones, Visual Voicemail, and More | Windows...

Is it a whine? My old V-star used to have the same whine as my 6R. A mechanic told me once that most Yamahas whine because of the way they cut the gears in the transmission. Nothing to be concerned about, apparently.

.. and you should be praying too! Tight turn on a 45-degree incline ain't simple stuff. More of a stunt. What Bloke said. If you've got skill, just look at where you want to go and nowhere else and trust the muscle memory to do the rest.

Go Windows Phone 7! Samsung Focus from AT&T or HTC HD7 from T-Mobile are very nice phones.

Man up! Warm, Florida rain doesn't count. You should try the fine Seattle drizzle that will chill you right to the bone. But I get your point. I too hate Californians, with their sandy beaches, nice weather and lane sharing...

Sun? Oh, yeah, I remember that. But not this year. Today looks nice. Maybe we'll hit 80 degrees. 5th time this year! 351 minutes of summer temps so far this year. The weatherman is now talking about the return of La Nina. And I thought after last summer that it couldn't get any worse.

I did it once on the cruiser and kept sliding all over the place. My lower back ached like hell after the ride.

FZ6R is rather top-heavy. It's not a good learner bike for a small person. A 250cc cruiser would be better here.

Methinks, riding without the shirt should help the airflow...

Nah. Once: a philosopher, twice: a pervert.

I have been lucky to have a single office for some years now, but back in 2000 I shared office with a disgusting fellow. He seemed to always have greasy fingers and would leave prints on my screen, keyboard and mouse. What’s worse I saw him using the loo in the big way and skip washing hands...

Woohoo! Another fellow msoftie!

It's just like the last milestone party in my building...

Might just as well wash and wax her too.
