You pretty much described winter hehe

this might be a really stupid question, but wtf is the difference on yamahapubs.com you have to choose between models: FZ6RDCL FZ6RDCW FZ6RDL FZ6RDW I have NO idea !?

Having said what I said, sometimes unavoidable shit still happens and that does indeed suck balls. As for gopro, helmet is best if you want to be able to aim the camera everywhere you turn your head... Depend on what kind of video you prefer to capture Edit: saw you don't want tacky or what...

9000km on mine so far and they look fine to me. Curious to see how long they'll last!

Honestly, I see this sort of thing all the time and much worse. In some cases I am convinced they do in fact see you, and just do their dick move anyway. Annoying as hell, but as a motorcyclist, you and only you are truly responsible for your safety. It sucks sometimes, but I don't use my bike...

Hey Sammo what app is that? I recently started tracking my mileage with fuellog. Got 47mpg riding 2up in relaxed country roads and 41mpg riding fast reving pretty high on the highway to get back. Best so far is 55mpg that I got during breakin. Seems that 40-45mpg is the easily attainable norm...

So I checked out a good half dozen stores. Gf found a sweet deal for her on an alpinestars half price that fits her perfect. For me I didn't find anything crazy good so I've ordered the phoenix 11. I went with that since I found one in store to try on and really liked how it fit, better than...

This looks soo cool! Did you ever change the white part?

Sweet bike!!

very nice! pics?? - how do you like the brakes stuff. how much of a difference do you feel over stock? - radar detector. lol. any good? i wasn't really planning on a lot of mods, but you guys are seriously giving me the itch.

lmfao at the 2nd gear start thing. I've raced for years too in a variety of cars, and that's just hilarious. The only time starting in 2nd has been beneficial has been when NOT racing (easier to not slip in shitty winter conditions, sometimes). aside from the exceptions already mentioned...

I'll be checking out another store in person on Monday, I don't want to miss out on any potential sweet deals that might just happen to be going on. If I don't find anything then, I'll probably order the Atomic 11.

Ok, awesome. So really, the atomic would be a better jacket, given that its all textile and no mesh? Am I understanding this correctly? Lol They look so similar.

You can definitely get the Atomic 4.0 in Canada, I think it's just one of the previous generations of the jacket. I've seen it on a lot of sites. However the site that has the cheapest combination of shipping and taxes (GPbikes.com for me) doesn't carry it. That's fine though, the Atomic 11...

Nearly dropped mine when my foot slipped in muddy rocks. Thankfully didn't, but sliders are now at the top of my list of things to get!

A feature that would be cool and help a lot with this is if similar topics were automatically displayed based on what you type before you submit your post, not completely unlike googles feature I guess when you're doing a search. You could see all the related topics, and go to one of those...

What kind of build are you? Only concern left is how well it will actually fit. I'm 6'1 and 180ish, I want to make sure I'm not ordering something that won't fit properly. I'm checking out another store soon in person but so far they all have various different stuff, but not the atomic 4.0

Just rode it. Didn't abuse it but didn't baby it. Rode city, stop and go and some highway but not for hours on end... Didn't pay super super close attention to "break in riding", did my first tune up probably a bit later than I should have. I have over 6500km now and no issues whatsoever, she's...

Wow lots of great replies, lots to think about, thank you! Since the Joe rocket atomic 4.0 is one I've had my eye on .. How is it?

So I've been shopping for gear, and I'm fairly sure that leather will be way too hot for me most of the time, as nice as it is. i will surely end up having at least one, just the same. but for now, i'm looking for the best all around jacket that i'll actually make the most use of, even when...
