Yea MotoWhere is awesome...
Tyre looks REALLY cool, I don't have a GPS on my bike (yet), so right now I just open google maps, print out the general area, add notes and highlight the route I want to take. Course I gotta stop if I get lost :p
LOL @ Craxican's post haha
But seriously that's ridiculous, I hope they get caught.
Anyway here's mine:

What zarfnober said. Premium burns slower than regular. Higher octane means the fuel is less likely to ignite due to heat from compression before the spark plug has fired.
It all depends on where you live though really. There are numerous blends of gasoline across the U.S. Florida has far...
My uncle told me ethanol wasn't good for small engines. That said, I can't find any ethanol free gas close by, I put premium everytime and it runs great. Our engines are built for reliability, not racing, so they're not too finicky about what fuel they consume. I just put premium 'cause I...
So I got my IRP sliders yesterday and installed them (took about 20 minutes, all I needed to buy was an 8mm allen head socket from my local auto parts store).
I torqued all the bolts to 38 ft-lbs.
They were an early xmas gift from my pops (thanks, Dad!).
Here's some pics (these are just...
Thought I'd share my experience on the 408 (Orlando East-West Expressway) this past weekend. I was just out riding for the weekend, so I figured I'd do some highway miles. Well, after some time on the highway headed West, I decide to get off and head back East. I check my mirror, put on my...
:thumbup: I thought I was the only one. I don't (and don't know how to) kneedrag but I've done the same as you. Scared me too the first time I did it lol. Now whenever I take a quick or banked turn I get my leading toe on the peg and shift my weight to that side just a bit allowing my knee to...
I'm never getting rid of my FZ6R, it's too awesome of a bike to trade in. But, that is a very nice option for an additional, bigger bike. It's one of those bikes though that probably has to be seen in real life to be fully appreciated. Impressive piece of engineering from Honda for sure :thumbup:
+1 Rossi is on a different level when it comes to riding motorcycles.
I watch SBK, World SuperSport, pretty much anything if it's on...
Speed HD FTW haha
Essentially they help to prevent a tankslapper; especially if you land a wheelie with the front wheel crooked.

Looks sweet man, nice and clean, I like it. Especially the sprocket; I'm staying with stock gearing but the black rear sprocket looks so much better than stock.
Yea that seems like a bit much :confused:
Dunno though, I don't have a PCV or exhaust :o
Still though 65 horsepower stock at the rear wheel ain't bad.
65hp/470lbs = .1382979 power-to-weight ratio
To get a 3400lb car to the same ratio, you'd need roughly 470hp at the drive wheels lol
Congrats on a job well done. When you have the right tools and parts (as you have listed), it's a lot more fun and a lot less frustrating :thumbup:
I changed mine at 500 miles and again at 2400, no problems at all. I use Yamalube 10w-40 and the Yamaha filter too. Both are awesome quality...
Really? Do you have a car insured with them as well? 'cause I got a quote and it was like 4 grand or something ridiculous, Progressive quoted me $1700 for 12 months with full coverage...needless to say I'm likely purchasing a policy soon.
