    RS Taichi

    I have a jacket and gloves of theirs, both great. The gloves are especially comfortable... they use this thing called "mcfit technology"... basically a smooth inner lining sewn in, so when you're wearing them you don't feel any seams... RST400 HIGH PROTECTION LEATHER GLOVE / RS TAICHI

    Rear Turn Signals Not Working

    I had this same thing happen on my 08. Just changed the fuse... there's one for the rear turn signals, another just labelled something like "rear" I think, which is the one that needed changing. It didn't really make sense, because if the rear brake light's working, that fuse shouldn't...

    Dan-moto rearsets?

    Hey guys, Contemplating maybe buying a set of these: Yamaha FZ6 2004-2009 Rearsets Black [FR-00067] - $138.24 Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts/experiences with these? My understanding is that the Rizomas are no longer available, and the Gilles Tooling are like, $600. Any...

    Plasti Dip

    This may be a dumb question but did you remove everything to apply the plasti-dip to each part? just wondering if there's some way to tape around to avoid having to disassemble stuff... looks awesome btw!

    AGV Horizon vs Scorpion Exo-1100 ?

    I tend to do a fair amount of long distance touring so the idea of a built in sun visor really appeals to me. The new Shoei GT-Air seems really nice, but I guess I'm also debating the cost issue... I can get the Exo-1100 for half the price, and as far as I can make out most of the negative...

    Best Bike Security?

    The best theft deterrent i've ever seen was a bike that was painted entirely in pink, i mean the whole thing... nobody was gonna touch that thing. But then, I suppose that solution has its own set of issues :D

    AGV Horizon vs Scorpion Exo-1100 ?

    Thanks for the replies so far... sounds like some of you have had some pretty bad experiences with helmets! Would love to get a Schuberth but it's a little out of my price range just now. As far as Snell goes, was just checking and even the Shoei GT-Air is DOT only. Guess added features...

    AGV Horizon vs Scorpion Exo-1100 ?

    Getting ready to retire my old Shoei RF-1000, have got it narrowed down to the new AGV Horizon and the Scorpion Exo-1100 - was just wondering if anyone here has any thoughts/opinions about either of these lids? (i think my head's pretty much round-ish oval, the Qwest, GPTech and RX-Q all fit...

    Luggage

    I've got the Cortech Sport tri-bag system.. Cortech :: Luggage :: Sport Saddlebags works great, might be able to let you have mine real cheap if you can wait a little bit.. just bought some givi hardcases from a fellow forum member. Once I've received and installed them, won't have much use...

    Has your bike ever hit the ground?

    Just had my first ever spill last weekend, after about 3 years and almost 30k km of riding.. a slow speed low side in a parking lot. Fortunately, thanks to my frame sliders the primary damage was to my pride (a tiny scratch to the side of the engine and left footpeg being the only physical...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    Problem solved! As I'd suspected, it was a pretty simple fix.. turned out it was that red and white wire that Motogiro had pointed me to on top of the battery. I had checked the wire and both sides of the connector unplugged - but turns out one of them, although totally clean and uncorroded...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    lol.. not quite.. although not a bad idea (the beer around the fire waiting for problem to spontaneously solve itself, i mean.. ;) Borrowed my friend's multimeter, went downstairs (underground parking garage) and took off the side panel.. as far as I can tell none of the wires seem pinched...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    No, no code.. I'm pretty sure the pump's priming now that I think about it.. I mean it does all the normal noises when you turn the key on, it's just when you push the starter that nothing happens. A friend in my building has a multimeter, guess I'll see if I can borrow it sometime soon..

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    wow thanks for all the help everyone! The engine light doesn't come on right away when I turn the key on.. when I push the starter, at that point it starts blinking. Pretty sure the fuel pump's not priming.. other than the light blinking nothing at all happens when I push the starter button...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    Thanks.. I'd noticed that and thought I'd found the problem.. but there's no 4th wire anywhere that I could see, and the other 3 are inside a rubber casing.. would be pretty hard for a wire to retract into that casing so far you couldn't see the end..? Anyways at this point I'm hoping it's...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    Thanks!! was just reading a description of what happens when the tip over switch isn't working and it sounds way familiar.. apparently it's located on the left under the passenger seat.. which is right next to where I would've been working when i took off the rear fairing cover for the exhaust...

    Help! Bike won't start after Leo Vince install?

    Took another go at this today, still no luck.. double-checked the battery connections and made sure everything's in place. Was hoping it was the connector with the white plastic end on top of the battery cover, but doesn't seem to be..ends seem clean, pushed it in all the way, and when i push...
