    Cool Route Planner Site

    Yea MotoWhere is awesome... Tyre looks REALLY cool, I don't have a GPS on my bike (yet), so right now I just open google maps, print out the general area, add notes and highlight the route I want to take. Course I gotta stop if I get lost :p

    Regular Unleaded vs Premium Unleaded?

    What zarfnober said. Premium burns slower than regular. Higher octane means the fuel is less likely to ignite due to heat from compression before the spark plug has fired. It all depends on where you live though really. There are numerous blends of gasoline across the U.S. Florida has far...

    Regular Unleaded vs Premium Unleaded?

    My uncle told me ethanol wasn't good for small engines. That said, I can't find any ethanol free gas close by, I put premium everytime and it runs great. Our engines are built for reliability, not racing, so they're not too finicky about what fuel they consume. I just put premium 'cause I...

    Got my frame sliders!

    So I got my IRP sliders yesterday and installed them (took about 20 minutes, all I needed to buy was an 8mm allen head socket from my local auto parts store). I torqued all the bolts to 38 ft-lbs. They were an early xmas gift from my pops (thanks, Dad!). Here's some pics (these are just...

    Upgrade to 1 litter bike

    :thumbup: I thought I was the only one. I don't (and don't know how to) kneedrag but I've done the same as you. Scared me too the first time I did it lol. Now whenever I take a quick or banked turn I get my leading toe on the peg and shift my weight to that side just a bit allowing my knee to...

    Honda 2010 VFR1200F

    I'm never getting rid of my FZ6R, it's too awesome of a bike to trade in. But, that is a very nice option for an additional, bigger bike. It's one of those bikes though that probably has to be seen in real life to be fully appreciated. Impressive piece of engineering from Honda for sure :thumbup:

    Rim Stripes

    Any MotoGP Fans!?

    +1 Rossi is on a different level when it comes to riding motorcycles. I watch SBK, World SuperSport, pretty much anything if it's on... Speed HD FTW haha
