    Clutch Slave Levers - I'm making them again

    TowsendsFJR1300 - I've replaced the clutch cable on my FZ6. Agree that it is very easy to do. Another tip that I heard was that when you are replacing the cable, run a second one with it and tape the ends of it off. If you're ever in a spot where your clutch cable fails you've got a backup...

    Android Kit Kat for: RazR M, HD & Maxx is rolling out

    Go ahead and install it - all of your messages/MMS/etc will show up inside of the new app. If you are scared of losing messages, you can download SMS Backup and Restore or Titanium Backup and make a backup of your messages just in case. If you have tons of messages, this is a good idea...

    Android Kit Kat for: RazR M, HD & Maxx is rolling out

    Erci - try to download 8SMS. It's a replacement app for SMS that mirrors the KitKat one, except it has things like a dark theme. It also allows MMS over wifi if your carrier allows it. I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and love KitKat, but it does have a few flaws which make it eat battery. They...

    Electric bikes are getting better

    They just had a full demo day of all of these things at the shop right next to me and I missed it. I'm definitely interested in picking one up. I use my bike 99% of the time for commuting to and from work and this thing would be perfect.

    Someone attempted to steal my FZ6

    Yeah its a Madstad. I like it a lot - I do tons of highway miles to and from work and have ridden from Alexandria - Newport News, VA (about a 170 mile trip each way?). I think its worth it. Blocks tons of wind and makes it a lot easier to just sit back and cruise and not worry about wind...

    Someone attempted to steal my FZ6

    I'm only about 30 miles north of you I think. My rent is 2200/mo for a 2 bedroom. How's that for expensive as anything?

    Someone attempted to steal my FZ6

    They probably brought baseball bats to make sure he couldn't steal one again. I park mine at my apartment complex and some ********** parked his dumb BMW in the same spot with it the other day. I was pissed. He got a 24 hour notice or his car would get towed + a lease violation so if he...

    More invisible than usual?

    I ride from Alexandria to Bethesda every single day. You unfortunately just have to assume that nobody sees you and be prepared to react to it. I wouldn't give up riding over it, but you're already doing yourself a favor by running that camera while you are out.
