    Exhaust question

    +1 this. Buell's are Harley V-twins. Much easier to get two pipes into one than 4 into 1. I just don't think there is space there. Even on a bigger bike (FZ1) it still is just not possible.

    The wife got a new bike...

    I think it hurts her pride a little going from a 900 to a 700, but yes, I would agree that it suits her well. She hasn't rode by herself for over a year, and the last time she did ride (passenger), was when we went down totalling her Vulcan. She is nervous, and needs to re-gain her confidence...

    The wife got a new bike...

    Maybe you missed me saying this: It really wouldn't be a bike that I would be into. If I want a cruiser, I want a cruiser, not a half breed. But I enjoy the warning! :D

    This one looked pretty good too: Love Handles Passenger Safety Apparatus | eBay

    The wife got a new bike...

    Yup, forward controls, thought that was a plus to me. I think the bike has an identity crisis. Can't figure out if it wants to be a cruiser, or sport bike. It is pretty smooth, and has good pickup for a 700cc bike. Also smooth for a twin. It's pretty cool, but doesn't hold a candle to the...

    The wife got a new bike...

    So, have to announce, that my wife has finally decided on what bike she wanted. I had tried tirelessly to get her on a sport bike, and it just isn't her thing. So here is what she got... It is a Honda CTX700N. Here is my review. So, where to start. Let's just start with ergonomics. The...

    Break In Complete - RPM to the RED?

    I can't legally take my bike to red line in most places. Taking my bike to redline in first gear will put you over most speed limits.

    Bike wash fail

    That is one reason why I won't trust anyone else to wash/care for my bike. People can be so dumb.

    Mirrors with Integrated Signals

    They are universal, so they would fit almost anything with two bolt holes.

    Rider down

    Sorry to hear. Such a shame, it seems like it will never get better.

    Failed skills test

    If there is a certain skill that you are having trouble with, go to a parking lot and just practice. You will be more prepared for your next test.

    Fz9

    That is highly unlikely, considering it is a totally different design. The FZ8 and FZ1 share a lot of parts because the 8 was based on the same frame as the FZ1. The FZ-09 is totally different because new motor, frame, swing arm, etc. Most likely not going to get much interchangeability.

    Mirrors with Integrated Signals

    Holy old thread resurection! I noticed that I never updated my thread with pictures. Yeah, those integrated mirrors are really not that good. I didn't care for them. Didn't take long and I got rid of them. I found the best are the Ninja ZX6 Mirrors 05-08. You can add any extra lights for...

    MNGregs Test Rides

    I would go for either the FZ1 or the FJR. They are two totally different bikes. The FJR would be all touring. The FZ1 can be set up that way, but not factory. The FJR would eliminate your weight limit issue I think....

    Turn signal modifications

    I think a popular thing to do is to change the ugly turn signals, and then add additional signals to increase visibility to equal or improve stock signal visibility.
