    Is it safe to plug a tire ?

    Had only 75 miles on my rear tire when i found the same thing. I plugged the tire and went 700-800 miles while the dealer got me a replacement. Also, you can get road hazard protection, which I did after that. So you can do it, but it should not be looked at as a permanent fix.

    Yamaha Comfort Grips with FZ6R logo

    I've got grips you are referring to and I would say that they are no better than the stock grips. Would recommend trying some of the other mentioned items first. They are cheaper and likely better than the Yamaha grips.

    The Best LEVERS' Deal you will EVER find

    Don't really put much of anything on here, but I did want to say thanks to the tip about filing some off of the brake lever. I installed these levers last night and I thought all was well. When I left for work in the morning I noticed that my brake light was still on. It of course went off...

    Bad Decision?

    This my first bike and I'm 39 years old, heard a lot of the same things. Ask yourself one honest question. Are you a good driver? If you have been in a lot of accidents because you drive carelessly, then this is probably not for you. On the other hand, if you are careful and defensive you...

    PA inspection "Flushmounts"

    Not the best at linking stuff but look at http://www.dmv.state.pa.us/pdotforms/pub_45/tables.pdf The issue you may have is the distance between turn signals. It should be 16" from the centerline of the lamp.

    Where and how is your bike stored?

    When the weather is bad is stays in the front of the garage. For the most part it is outside (undercover) on a brick pad that I built on the side of the driveway. Unfortuneatly my garage is not wide enough to keep the bike in for daily access and keep a Hummer and SRX. This was the best...

    Failed MSF

    I know how you feel, but as said earlier and by more than one person, never give up. It seems evey place is a little bit different. In PA the box doesn't reallt matter all that much. They want to see that you perform well in the "Life Skills Areas". As our coach said, "the box just shows...

    Why'd you choose it?

    This was my first bike and after reading some reviews, it seemed to be a great fit. It was NOT a 250, which I thought I would grow out of very fast and then have to sell at a substantial lose. The seating position was very appealing combined with the sports bike look.
