That helmet looks amazing, I'd love to get one even just to make a Master Cheif halloween costume. Haha.

I haven't posted in ages it seems like but I just felt like chiming in on this - any rider from any walk of life can have an opinion on helmets I figure. I bought an Arai Profile helmet and never looked back. I know it was expensive ($600.00 usd.) at the time, but in the long haul I'm glad I...

it definitely will be a collectors item someday - so far my impression leaves me with the impression this isn't the only one I'll ever own. But for now, it was made to be driven, not stuck in some stuffy old garage! And yeah, its a HUGE step up from the fz6r, 160 whp, fully adjustable...

so far those are the pics I have, I've been a little busy riding and not as busy shutterbugging it. ;) I found my DSLR finally, so I'm looking forward to a proper day of photos in the near future - I keep promising pics so I figured I'd put up what I could for now. ;)

Haha there is definitely a stigma to riding a suzuki, but at least its an uncommon one, most of the time people just stare at it like they're seeing electricity for the first time and inevitably ask "Daaaaaang, son, what'chu got there!?" followed by "Daaaaaaang son, can it wheelie?" Even...

My new bike; 2008 suzuki B-King. Holy shit this bike is a monster, and I couldn't be happier. I'm going to miss the old FZ6R, but I'm happy with the direction I took. Although after I signed and was walking around the lobby more they had a fz8r on display, god those look sexy - but i suppose...

i'd be curious to see the cutoff pattern. I know that on cars the headlight assembly is designed as a unit and works in symphony - bulb, reflectors, shaped glass with etched diffuser lines, etc. I haven't inspected our headlight much, but it isn't a xenon headlight from the factory which would...

i'd like to pick up the pig-spotter mirrors at some point, but i do honestly like the stock mirrors for their visibility. Not sure if they would require modification to mount, but I'm pretty sure i've seen an FZ6R around here with them installed.

I looked at the z1000 as my first bike TBH - in the end I went with the yamaha because I was scared of the 1000cc at the time, and it cost more by a good margin. I like the look of the naked version in the orange/white a little more. personally! Its a hot bike, and I've heard nothing but good...

I got mine in April I think iirc, and i'm coming up on 12000 miles before the end of this month

I got the bike mostly out of convenience; good financing rate, good price, and i was approved on credit. It was either this or the kawasaki - and i didn't like the cluster or the feel of it on the floor as much. I actually was in the market for an sv650 and just couldn't get approved. I don't...

The article isn't saying that cutting our airbox will lessen our power; it's just implying that in most cases the airbox is designed by the engineer to operate in harmony with the engine to provide adequate airflow to the engine for a targeted powerband. The section toward the end regarding...

YouTube - Powerslides - Motorbike Drifting Lone Rider Mix pretty swank video, comment on the music if you want - people love it or hate it.

Should've been loaded with non-lethal rounds, or just had a pump. Nothing says 'you should rethink your next move very carefully' like the sound of a pump action shotgun in the dark...

God damn that looks good. Get some buell style double headlamps on there and it would look sick IMO. I'm going naked as soon as I get situated in my new living accommodations with a similar plan in mind. Looks great.
