    random pictures of riding adventures...

    HOLY CRAP!!! That looks like a GREAT ride! I wonder if I can talk my wife into letting me take a trip from Texas to Cali just to go for a ride? Hmmm....probably not. Let me know if you guys ever come to TX. We'll play in the hill country.

    FZ6R Riders Show us your baby!!

    Looks like a good road. There are so many people in the forum in California that I might have to visit there someday. The central Texas area has some pretty awesome routes but few FZ6R people. Oh well...I will just continue to make GSXR and Ninja riders respect the FZ6R.

    FZ6R Riders Show us your baby!!

    I firmly believe that less is more when it comes to graphics. I just finished taking off most of the graphics decals from my bike today. I think I will keep it like this for a while.

    All in a NAME

    Mine is a nickname that I picked up while stationed in Korea and is based on a Steve Miller song...there is a rather long story behind it all actually but that is for another time...

    FZ6R Photos

    Here's my baby, freshly washed and ready to go. I personally like the Trojan mirrors and can see just fine with them. The trick is in adjusting them right. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

    what age is every one ?

    Just turned 40 and this is my first street bike. Rode a dirt bike when I was young enough to do REALLY stupid things on a bike. Now I just shred corners...heh heh.

    Yamaha Windscreen

    I bet it would look great. If you already have a second windsrcreen, paint the stock one and see how it looks. When I was at Home Depot they had a really good selection of colors. I personally think that black would look good on a yellow bike, but thats just me. If it makes you feel any better...

    Yamaha Windscreen

    It would look like...um...the same color. Sorry, but I couldn't resist. I used a spray paint by Rustoleum that is made for plastics. You want to tape off the edges with masking tape to avoid over-spray, of course. The paint was about 5 or 6 bucks at Home Depot. It was sooooo easy and looks...

    Lane splitting/sharing

    Here in Texas it is technically legal, but it is HIGHLY discouraged. We have an awful lot of SUVs and really big Pick Ups here and they don't always think to look before changing lanes. Lane splitting/sharing is so frowned on that it will usually get you a ticket regardless of the speed. I have...

    Fender Eliminator

    Yeah...JonKerr called it on this one. From getting your bike almost stolen (good thing you didn't give them permission) to this. There has to be something that you are doing to draw attention. Could be in riding style or wardrobe. I wouldn't worry too much about this cop though. The chances of...
