    DakinechicK!!

    I accidentally ran into Dakinechick at my place of business. We started talking about bikes, and she said 'Hey, I know you!!' I said, 'Hey, I know you too!!' What a great lady, and a very good driver! :) It is cool to meet people in person when you only have talked to them on a forum...

    Dyno run (thunder hill raceway)

    Theoretically, you should shift between 9k and 10k to keep it in the peak horsepower range. This would apply to stock motors, and slightly modded stock motors such as those with pipes and controllers. Easier said then done, timing and consistency are everything.

    Time spent with the President of Yamaha

    Here I am receiving one of a couple of gifts from Mr. Tashizumi Kato, President of Yamaha Motors International. We sat down for over an hour discussing many of the ideas mentioned on here, as well as a few other things. What a genuine, and very nice man.

    Time spent with the President of Yamaha

    Well, I wish this was a short story, but this is how it all played out. I raced at the age of 17 for Yamaha, racing 3 wheelers, road racing, and dirt bikes. My primary sponsorship was for ATV's. My boss at the time, and myself, were chosen to do R&D for a new racing 3 wheeler, called the...

    Time spent with the President of Yamaha

    I will mention several of the great ideas that have been posted, and give you all a huge thank you for your input. As for the naysayers, you must live a miserable life when all you can do is post negative things on a website. I live my life with duty, honor, integrity and respect.

    Time spent with the President of Yamaha

    Yesterday, I was contacted by Dale Diaz, a district representative for Yamaha Motor Corporation. He told me that the new president of Yamaha, (worldwide), not the US Yamaha president, wanted to meet with me, yes, me! He is doing a photo shoot and presenting me with an award. He also would...

    FZ6R is no slouch!!

    The dealership I work at sponsored, in conjunction with Yamaha, a ride night, into the foothills outside of Denver, Colorado, last night. All of our customers were invited to attend, riding whatever they owned. I have been taking flak for riding a 'girl's bike, a beginner's bike, and a...

    Shift points

    A stock FZ6R makes it's peak horsepower at about 9700 rpm, and falls off after that. At anything about 10k rpm, you are just losing hp. Dyno tested...... 'Linear' is exactly what the FZ6R motor is about. With linear power, it tires the rider less quickly, but doesn't 'feel' as fast per the...

    Sick to my stomach....RIP

    Not one mention of this wreck anywhere in the Denver news. I guess it was not news worthy, or got bumped for something else. I was able to reach a family member, after pulling up some sales records. The family member told me this: The person that bought the bike, and put the new front tire...

    Sick to my stomach....RIP

    Over the last 2 weeks, I sold 2 used R6's to some 20 some year old boys. They had very little riding experience, and I cautioned them to be careful. They kept bringing in more and more of their buddies to buy bikes, and I sold a few more various R6 and ZX6R's to them. I had one kid who was...

    My new smoked integrated tail light

    The grips are softer, and a little thicker. I think they are very comfortable, although, there are even better grips out there. Because they are softer, they do not wear as well, but grips are a relatively cheap item if they need replaced. I have been putting ODI lock on grips on other toys I...

    Pivot Parking, worth it?

    We move bikes around on the show room floor and in the warehouse all the time using either this, or a similar method. While on the stand, we rotate the bike on it's kickstand, by pushing down on the rear of the bike, swinging it around. We have never damaged a bike, a stand or a fairing. We...

    Hidden Cutoff Switch

    You could attach it to your jacket if you wanted, and just mount it on the handlebar, but then it would not be hidden. Just remove the tether and use the plug, then hide it wherever you wish. If you wish to use the tether, just attach it to your throttle side, and put it around your wrist...
