    Getting rid or hiding the "jewel" on the headlight.

    Don't get rid of it! Its designed when Yamaha decides we are worthy, to engage hyper drive! Also, if you lick it, it makes an "Object being licked" sound..

    How many miles on your bike?

    Well weekend riding does take a lot of my monthly mile quotas haha. Though about miles, I'm hopefully going on a 2,200 mile ride in a few months. Been on any long rides on the R6?

    What brand brake lines?

    Not any more than I had with regular hoses. If you ride around like an idiot hammering the rear brake, of course its going to lock.

    I actually got my steel braided lines at a place that specializes in aircraft and racing application! For the front, it was $37 and rear was $21. Its a local place out here for me, but here is the website in case you can search for something similar near you index

    How many miles on your bike?

    Wow that's quite a number for a sport bike! Now though, did you check your valves twice already, and did they need adjusting? I'd be curious to know as I'm about to roll over 27k.

    Would you take your bike on a gravel road?

    I've done it many times before without incident! Just do as everyone above says, and you will be fine! An important thing to remember, we have tubeless tires, so do try to avoid any large ruts or rocks just to be safe!

    What did you do to your bike today?

    Went on a short canyon ride yesterday and decided to put on the camera for the ride. I sped it up because it was a little too bumpy for normal speed. If you're ever in the area should check out this road. GMR Run at Twice Speed! - YouTube

    HID - Worth It?

    I say yes, I notice a large difference. I have ridden with a couple of friends at night who had the same old H4 from our bike and my HID completely out shined their light on the road through distance and width.

    What did you do to your bike today?

    Put on some steel braided brake lines onto the bike, and of course changed the brake fluid! Now stops on a dime and now looks cool with the red braided steel.
