    Gel Seat Pad For Sale

    For long rides on a narrow seat, it definitely helps to keep the monkey butt at bay. I bought this for, and used it on, my Ninja 250. It was the old style, which had the narrow seat which wasn't the most comfortable. The seat on my FZ6 is wide enough to fully support my posterior, so no need...

    Soft Luggage For Sale

    I have someone interested in the set right now. If the deal falls through, Uno has dibs on the tailbag, Nasty has dibs on the saddlebags. Not sure if the Cortech tailbag will match up to the Fieldsheer saddlebags, but the saddlebags have the "female" end of the buckle sewn into the bags...

    How did he not go down?

    I imagine that's what my encounter with a deer looked like. I'll never know, because it was 11:30 at night, and there wasn't anyone around when it happened. Wear your gear folks. The stuff works. I suffered a dislocated shoulder and a broken finger (plus 3 days of being more sore than I...

    Intake leveling

    None, really. Syncing the throttle bodies will smooth out the idle and increase the throttle response. It essentially allows all 4 cylinders to achieve the same power level, instead of some pulling harder than the others. I'd imagine if it got way out of wack, you could start having issues...

    Super Glue

    I had thought about recommending the inside of the fender or something, but the paint on plastic isn't always the same as the paint on metal. Since the plastic is much more flexible, the paint has to be as well. The paint can often be much softer on plastic. However, if you're successful at...

    Super Glue

    Yes, you'll need some sort of solvent, like nail polish remover, acetone, mineral spirits, etc. to soften up the glue so you can remove it. A solvent is going to be much more harsh on your paint than goo-gone, but if you're very very careful, you should be OK. The key is to try and contain...

    Water Crossing's

    I had to ride though a flooded out road once on my Ninja 250. It had to have been 8" deep and at least 50' long stretch of road. I just went slow and tried to be as smooth as possible. To make matters worse, I was coming back from a trip, so I had a good amount of luggage strapped onto the...

    wisdome on gas...

    If his engine is setup to correctly run premium (milled heads, high-compression pistons, timing/fuel map changes with a power commander), then yes, he would very easily be able to tell the difference in premium and regular fuel. If the ignition system in his bike is not able to adjust itself...
