    Ravens on the Track?

    So there’s a 70% chance I’ll be attending my first track day in the near future and wanted to get a couple opinions on my tires.

    Front Tire Wearing Faster than Rear

    Let me preface this by saying I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to bike maintenance (but as issues arise, I am learning :) .) From most everything I've read, the rear tire typically wears faster than the front. I have just over 5500 hundred miles on my bike and the front is definitely...

    One of the worst excuses for "not seeing a motorcycle"

    This has been making news the past couple of days. I grew up not far from where this occurred. Terrible excuse for failing to see the motorcyclist in my opinion and a good reminder to ignore the phone if you happen to be driving the cage today. Woman Charged In Fatal Texting While Driving...

    Yinzer from suburban Pittsburgh

    How are yinz guys (and gals) doing? New member from western Pennsylvania here. I've had my white 2013 FZ6R for about 6 weeks now and it's awesome! This is my second bike as I sold my CBR250 that I had/learned on for about a year. I'm not really into the cruiser style, but wasn't after a...
