My bike is black and I Was wearing a black T-shirt in the middle of the day. I have started rebuilding her today. The insurance cut me a check for $3500 and I will be fixing it myself. Some parts do not have to be replaced so the money I am saving I will put towards the fender eliminator I...

Glad to hear you are ok. I wasn't so lucky. Damage to my bike is $3500 and I spent the night in ICU. I started taking her apart today to replace the crash parts.

Thank you all for the well wishes. My bike is in worse shape than me. My decision to stop riding did not come from just this incident. Please understand that where I live there is an extremely large number of retired folks that either can not see or just do not care. The lady that hit me was...

I put her bike on ebay. Starting bid $5K Item # 280490917120

A few days ago I went to my local post office on my bike. As I was leaving I had to wait in the break in the median to turn left. There was traffic coming (Including a cop) so I had to wait. As I am waiting I look back to see a lady in a white car coming from the PO and I figured she would get...

Really... no hits?

I bought this bike for my wife because she just had to have it but she never rides it so it is up for sale. 09 FZ6R with the girls pinkish scrolls from the factory. Lowered 1.5 front and back with Roaring Toyz link and kickstand. IT HAS LESS THAN 200 MILES ON IT! $6K cash obo. FL title in...

I do use it for transportation but I work from home so most of the time I don't have to go anywhere but if I do it is usually with the wifey and we take our truck. Besides, people in Florida (the older ones) can't drive for shit and it is just plain scary. Thanks to everyone who chimed in.

I still only have about 1200 miles on mine.

They just called and told me it must have been bad gas as they drained it, refilled it with new gas and a FI cleaner and she is running smooth. I don't ride it every day but it gets ridden at least once a week. I only put 93 in it as well. WEIRD! Still no charge.:)

They better not charge me for shit or they will be talking to my attorney. A brand new bike shouldn't need anything but gas and oil for some serious mileage. This bike is starting to be like my boat.... a money pit. *Just got off the phone with the service manager of the dealership where I...

Mine is still under warranty, I even purchased Yamaha's 3yr extended warranty. I ain't paying for S**T. :rant:

I was riding my bike last night when I noticed that it had a bad vibration on take off but went away until I hit 6K RPM and over. I figured it was a fluke but it kept doing the same thing over and over. Obviously I drove it straight to my local dealer and dropped it off. The bike is an 09...

I bought the link and kickstand directly from the Roaring toyz website and it only took a few days to get it, then again, I am in Florida. I'm sure the shipping would be a bit more but that would be the route I would go.

I wear an ICON Hooligan mesh jacket, HJC full-face helmet, and Joe Rocket gloves. My wife has an S&S jacket, Icon gloves, and an HJC full-face helmet as well. Getting Sartso killer kevlar jeans is the next investment.
