    Oops...

    I took the Stelvio out for a trail ride. The trail was muddier than I thought! 650 lbs. is a b*tch to get up! After it was all over all she needed was a bath. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk

    Mrs. Hellgate Gets a Bike

    Mrs. Hellgate took her MSF class last week and passed with flying colors! This weekend we went to every shop and sat on a million bikes. She really liked the CBR250, and wants a Ninja 300. We decided to find the same model she learned on, a Suzuki GZ250. We found a bone stock, never crash...

    R6S vs FZ6 Fork Length Difference?

    Hey Everyone - It's been a number of years since I put the R6S forks on my old FZ6. IIRC the R6S fork is about 10mm shorter? Also would someone please measure the length of an FZ6 fork from the top of the tube to the middle of the axle opening? Reason is, I'm toying with putting a set of FZ6...

    Hillbilly Glove Repair

    So two Saturdays ago I lowsided my R6. During the fall I ground down the back of one of my A* GP Tech gloves. The palms are fine, the rest of the glove is fine, only the knuckle guard is a little shorter. Not wanting to bin a $300 pair of gloves, my brain kicked in, yes it can happen. So a...

    First Crash since 1988

    The bike, R6, is in great shape all things considered. Here's how it went down. An instructor passed me and an RC51 and tapped his tail, that means "follow me." The two slow pokes in front of us pitted, thank goodness, and we took off. As we went into turn two all three of us were cranked over...

    2012 Aprilia Tuono Ride Review

    I went for a short ride tonight, about 30 miles. Mainly twisty roads and a 65mph four lane road with a number lights.
