    Pulled the trigger on my second bike :)

    Happened on the inside lane of 80th st and Lindbergh blvd, Philadelphia PA 19153. Estimate came back. $1974 to replace both rims (estimate includes taxes, towing fees, and hourly mechanic work). Ending up having State Farm take care of it. I have a $1000 deductible, so hopefully the city...

    Pulled the trigger on my second bike :)

    Hit a gigantic pothole tonight. Front and back rims bent. Not exactly the pictures of my new bike I wanted to post. :-/ Anyone know what kind of options I have here? Repair the rims? Have a shop bend them back or should I just replace them? Will factory warranty cover the rims? Or will I need...

    Triple tree stand??

    Make sure that the pin is fully seating into the hole. Sometimes when I slide it in and it's not all the way in correctly, when I go to lift the front end, it lifts the bike up by the headlight. Just maneuver the stand in there so it's directly underneath and it should lift up, with maybe the...

    Pulled the trigger on my second bike :)

    SO I finally did it. Today I became the owner of a new 2013 Kawasaki ZX6R. Came upon a deal too good to pass up. Picking the bike up tomorrow once State Farm faxes over whatever it is they need to fax over to the dealership. More pics to come tomorrow, but here's a pic I took of the bike before...

    Pirelli Angel Gt first review

    Welp. Got my first flat tire today on the bike. Ran over a tiny metal shard. Less than 1500 miles on the Pirelli GTs since I switched from the stock bridgestones too. Such BS. I hate city street driving. So much debris everywhere.

    Test rode '13 Daytona 675 over the weekend...

    OMG. I have the super sport bug now and must find a way to get this bike. Not a bad thing to say about the experience. The jump off the line is incredible. Handled like a dream. And so much power. As soon as I got back on the FZ6R after the ride, it literally felt like riding in quicksand for...

    Weighted Bar Ends for Woodcraft Clip-ons

    When I did it, the left side went in pretty smoothly without a hitch and seems to be in there real tight with no turning (although if I really tried, it would obviously start to turn). But it would take real effort to remove the bar end on that side. The right side however I ran into issues with...

    Pirelli Angel Gt first review

    Might just be my eyes deceiving me but I just got my bike back today from the shop. Is it just me or does the rear angel GT tire seem narrower than the stock tires. They are both the same size but For some reason, I don't know if it's the rounder profile of the pirellis but i kind of got the...

    Boston Marathon...

    Had a buddy of mine that was running in the marathon today and was a half mile from the finish line when the first bomb went off. Sad world we live in when stuff like this can happen even at a family friendly event like a marathon!

    Woodcraft Clip Ons

    They come off. Just takes a bit of grip from a pair of pliers and they pull right out. They're not threaded or anything so you don't gotta worry about turning in the same direction. I actually think mine came out easier when I went back and forth as I was pulling on it with my pliers.

    Always said I'd never get caught in a downpour...

    ...and then it happened to me tonight. Very bad thunderstorm too. Super windy and I was getting blown all over the place. Rear tire sliding every which way. Made it home, albeit with soaked shoes, jeans, gloves, and jacket. Thank god for my OGIO backpack or my phone would have been trashed...

    Camera comparisons

    I just picked up a Replay XD1080 and have been messing around with all the quality settings. Once I also find a good video editor for noobs like me to use, I'll upload some vids. So far I love it as its super easy to use and the video quality is awesome. Also, like the contour, the replay...

    Bought the OGIO Mach 5 No drag backpack from redpoint

    No complaints here. Bought the item while he was out of town and John sent it out as soon as he got back into town as promised. Item was as described and got a great deal on it. Spring time is right around the corner too! Sweet!
