Not available. I sold it not long after the original post. But thanks for your interest.

A while back a friend of mine said he had an unused AGV helmet he wanted to give me. I asked what it looked like and he said it had some faces on it as he recalled. When he gave it to me I noticed a sun and a moon with faces in them and and I asked him what kind of design it is and wtf with...

ok. Here's the pictures --- I think.

As much as I hated to, I listed my 2009 FZ6R yesterday on Craigslist. I love that bike but I don't need to keep two bikes. I am in the Southwest Florida area. I have never had any issues with it. It has been completely flawless. I bought it new from dealer in Punta Gorda in December of...

Is it really necessary to have a law prohibiting that? We have so many rules.

I just bought a 2012 Ducati Diavel a couple of months ago. It is my first non Japanese bike and I will admit to being worried about reliability issues. But so far - 1300 miles - I have had no issues at all. The valve adjustment interval is 15,000 miles and it is expensive at around $1,500 but...

Hey Nasty why pick on people when they turn 62. I think that people who choose to live in Alaska (shiver) should be tested.

That "Beep, Beep, Beep" was the shit detector going off.

I get right around 50mpg but I dont go racing around like a lot of younger members -- LOL.

I know its is a personal preference, but istalling a +1 tooth (17 I think) front sprocket made the bike more enjoyable for me. And according to others here on the forum it makes the speedo reflect the actual road speed.

Also, being an old fart and a motorcycle rider, I am not too keen on the fact that it seems that all the auto makers are in a competition to cram as many distractions (touch screens and the like) into the cars. I feel that I could easly be taken out by some SOB looking down at his dashboard screen.

I hate the fact that a LOT of people fool around with their phones( dialing, web surfing, texting) while driving. I always try to get a look at the person behind me and to the side of me when stopped at a traffic light. If they are looking down, I try to stay get away from them as soon as...

Welcome. I know what you mean. I used to ride a cruiser but would never go back to them. The fz6r is so much more fun to ride.

My next bike is going to be a Ducati Diavel. But I am keeping my blue FZ6R because I love it (small, fast, reliable, fun) and because I am concerned about reliability issues with the Ducati. The demo bike at my local dealer has been unridable for weeks now because "they are waiting for a...

"Ain't no beer in Murphy" (NC) is what the desk clerk told my wife and I after we checked in after a long day in the saddle. So govern your self accordingly.
