    $400 New HJC RPHA-10+ Lorenzo Graffiti in XS (Euro)

    New HJC RPHA-10+ Lorenzo Graffiti in XS (Euro) for $400 shipped within the USA. The helmet is new in the box, never ridden in. The RPHA-10+ Lorenzo Graffiti is discontinued in the US. So, I bought this off eBay, and it's European spec. But, I added the DOT sticker on it already...

    Suspected Oil Dumper on GMR...

    Plate is 4SWC981 Again this guy is a serious person of interest, because of (1) his odd behavior yesterday and (2) the time frame and locations of his presence in which the fresh oil spots were sighted. 3 different groups of riders all noticed him loitering, driving really slow, and oil...

    new CA lane splitting study released

    The researchers interviewed us for the study at Jay's Shell off ACH. They asked very objective questions and seemed fair. I'm happy that I got to participate in it and hope CA continues allowing us to split. Otherwise we would die from heat exhaustion on hot summer days.

    Any of you guys ever had a major mechanical failure with your 6r?

    A previous member here, Brian, had a 2009 raven FZ6-R that was a lemon. After he got an attorney and about 1.5 years later, Yamaha finally bought it back. He since left the forum, so I dunno if he ever replaced it with a CBR like he planned. Also just bad luck. Any mass-manufactured product...

    Yamaha Demo days!!!

    I actually like the riding position of the R6 better. But, it's easier to get fatigued if you have poor posture b

    Any of you guys ever had a major mechanical failure with your 6r?

    Radiator on my 2012 R1 sprung a leak a few months ago. A rock or pebble punctured it while on the freeway. When I arrived at my destination that day I noticed coolant on the ground and then saw the puncture when I looked for the leak. Cost a LOT of $$ to fix, and basically had to get a new...

    Arai: Thoughts Behind Big $ Helmets

    I have everything from a $50 HJC CL-15 (Snell) to a $650 AGV Corsa (ECE). And, my favorite go-to helmet is still the $150 HJC IS-16, that's only DOT, because it feels the most comfortable & lightweight to me and has the mix of features I like the most as far as visibility, cooling, and noise...

    My First Crash and Hit and Run...

    Sorry to hear about this, but glad u r ok. Even if the other party doesn't have their DL & insurance documents, always ask for their full name, address, phone number, email etc. a business card is better than nothing too. It is -very- important to ask her to get out of the car too. So...

    New Ride: gsx-r600

    Congrats! :) the GSXR600 is a fantastic bike, and am sure you'll love it more and more. Just the weight reduction difference alone is a huge plus when moving from the 6R to a SS 600, imo... But then again, moving up from a SS 600 to a SS 1000 is like getting the weight of the 6R all back...

    R1 awful exhaust sound...

    I love the sound of the Crossplane- esp at high RPM's. There's no other engine that sounds like it... It sounds like one of the pods from the pod race in SW | Phantom Menace. lol... I'm also into rotary engines too, so I tend to like things that are more unique. Everyone has different...

    MotoGP today (Spoiler Alert!!!!)

    Lorenzo's nerves seem to be getting the best of him. And, Rossi's having more bad luck again. Looks like it's going to be the Marc Marquez show again in 2014... =\

    Primer on Lane Splitting in California?

    Cars rarely stop at red lights across lanes- ie they usually stay within their lane. Thats why I move to the line in-between lanes. Drivers that see you still leave 1/2 a car length distance and stay behind you. Asshole truck drivers and soccer moms will tailgate you no matter what. But, at...

    Primer on Lane Splitting in California?

    I always try to split at red lights when there is room, get to the front, then launch at green, get into any available lane that's open, and get in front of traffic. If I'm first to the line at the next red, I tap my brake light repeatedly to let cars paying attention know that im there...
