Poked my head in this forum for the first time in a while to sell some parts. Man I miss it. The Triumph forum isn't nearly as interesting.

In the almost two years since I originally posted, I have been pulled over twice. Once on a...

Just traded my '06 FZ for a new Daytona 675. I was headed to the track more and more often, and I needed a sharper tool. Just wanted to say thanks to all here who's posts I have enjoyed over the last few years and have learned a heck of a lot from. Your guidance has been key. I'll be checking in...
I drag a little knee every chance I get. Totally possible on the FZ with a little practice. If you succeed, when you get on a supersport you will be a rockstar. It's so much easier with clip-ons.
