I'm putting my Fizzer up for sale... it hurts, but I'm just not going to get the chances I used to have to ride her. I bought her brand new in April 2008. Never been down and doesn't have any marks or blemishes to note. I'd say for having a bike for 4 years, she is about as mint as they come...
So, am I going to hell? Asking for serious trouble, etc.? I bought the bike new almost exactly three years ago and she still stops just fine. Just curious if I'm ok riding around with three year old fluid or should I get a solid :spank: and change ASAP.
Thanks!
So I flipped the high beam off for the first time in a long time yesterday and the sucker won't come back on. When I hit the switch to turn it back on the blue light turns on in the gauge, but not the bulb itself. The bulb looks ok, as in I don't see anything burned out or broken in there. The...
I've done this before. Put your hand inside the jeans and rub them across some pavement a bunch of times. You will be surprised how quickly they start to wear down. Might want to put some gloves on. Works well.
I called motosport.com and they said no one has these yet but if I placed an order they should get them in within 4-5 days (which I did). I emailed Icon too and they said they have a delay in getting them from the factory and they don't expect to get any until the first week of November...

These gloves look SWEET! I can't find anywhere that has them in stock though? Maybe they aren't out yet? It does say fall 2010, but it is fall 2010 dammit! Does anyone know anything about these plz? :thumbup:
Oh man, my friend has that exact bike and it is very very very nice. He offered to let me ride it last year and I respectfully declined. That's a lotta bike.
I go to Ocracoke every year. That's got to be the stretch from the ferry to town, unless there is some bizarro side of the island I have never seen. I can see how it would be really easy to open it up out there. Over the past few years I've noticed more and more bikes down in the Outer Banks. I...
Went to court yesterday for this. Court SUCKS btw!! There were some bad bad people in there. I do not plan on doing that again. So anyway the cop showed and there was no way I was going to try and plead not guilty when they got me for 17 over. But at the beginning of the trial for all of us...
:welcome: You will love this forum. Quick replies to your questions: one, no the keys are not chipped. You can use whatever regular key fits at the key cutting place or you can get Yamaha blanks on eBay if you like. I would highly recommend cutting a new key and putting it in a safe place as...
I have a set of both kinds. I do love to ride sometimes without the tips, but it gets to be a lot on longer trips. I got the P1 tips and have thought they didn't do too much, then I got a set of P1X tips and thought they quiet it too much. Right now I have a P1X tip in the right can as that gets...
I have heard the ride is amazing! I do see that the speed limit is 35 though... already fighting a nasty ticket, how are the cops out there? Are there usually speed traps or anything like that? Not looking to go nuts but would be nice to wind 'er up here and there if there are stretches of the...
Hey all, I'm in Annapolis Maryland and was thinking about taking a trip to Skyline Drive, VA for some riding/camping. I've never been there on a motorcycle but am fairly familiar with the area as I've camped there multiple times with the truck. A few questions for those please who may have made...
My first can of lube was Liquid Wrench. It was awful. Scared the bejeezus out of me at a stoplight once. I was still new to the bike and I look down and there was smoke coming from the front sprocket area. Thought the damn thing was on fire. Turned out the chain lube had slung off the chain and...
Bravo, sir! The FZ1 bars look sharp! How much time would you imagine went into taking all the stuff off of the stock bars and then reinstalling it all on the FZ1 bar? I would love to do that mod but I am a little intimidated.
Yeah that stinks, I almost ordered a set until I saw a comment that they won't fit an '08. My quest for a shorter windscreen and less obtrusive mirrors is leading to a whole lot of nowhere :rolleyes:
If I can do it then anyone can do it. Although it took me at least a few hours. Boneman on here has very detailed instructions on his site that should be in his info somewhere. Was a great help to me. Somehow I just decided to make it much more complicated than it needed to be. Just go slow...
