    Highway grates/grooves, no sleep strips, whatever

    I'm not sure what they're called, but I'm guessing you all know what I'm talking about by now. The little rumble strips on the lines of the roads... My question: how dangerous are they on a bike? I know when I cross the center line to pass in my truck it affects my steering significantly...

    Okay, this could technically be considered unrelated material and moved to the Bar, but... A N I M O T O: FZ6 - Die Toten Hosen Really cool site. Thought maybe you all would enjoy putting together some slideshows of your babies and posting them here. I'm considering paying to have the...

    Small complaint

    Okay, I have OCD so this is a tiny little thing that probably doesn't even bother anyone else, but... Any way the signatures could be vertically aligned to the bottom of the post? It looks funny with my sig pic hovering about midway when I make a short post. :rolleyes:

    Hardest thing to train yourself to do...

    Okay, been riding for a couple weeks now. This is rather humorous, but still kinda serious... The thing that worries me most is that when I get hit in the face shield with a bug I still jerk because it scares the piss out of me. I have the same reaction every time; I get pissed at myself for...

    Ordered my sliders

    Woodcraft-CFM :: Frame Sliders > Yamaha > R6 03-05 I got the solid black plastic pucks, at the recommendation of the local shop I go to. Does anyone else have sliders like these? Now that I've ordered them, I'm a bit afraid they'll be in the way. I'm 6'5" and hope my knees/legs don't hit...

    REALLY easy/stupid newbie question

    How do I remove the seat? Do I just pull? On all my quads there has always been a release lever... I don't have a manual for the bike yet and couldn't find any threads about this (since it's probably common knowledge for everyone else :)) and I didn't want to break it.

    Crazy noob question - Shift Pattern?

    I searched and couldn't find the answer... I'm used to riding a Suzuki quad, 5 up, easy as pie. I'm assuming the FZ6 will have a 1-down, 5-up pattern with neutral being in between 1st and 2nd gears. Is this correct?

    Is it too noob? (helmet)

    So I'm getting my bike tomorrow and I start shopping for helmets. I find one I like the looks of, and it fits (which is rare, I have a huge noggin). It's also the right price. Then the guy shows me that it has flashing lights on the back! Is that noobtastic or what? lol

    Thumb Throttle???

    I searched and didn't find anything, which probably answers my first question... How retarded is it to even consider a thumb throttle mod? I've been riding ATVs for years and the thumb throttle always seemed more natural to me... not to mention I have some limited mobility in my wrists. I...

    Top 5 Mods?

    I'm obviously new here, and I hope this isn't a redundant topic... I would like to know from all you modders out there what your favorite 5 mods are. I'm really looking for handling related mods, like windshields that deflect wind better making for a smoother ride, but if your favorite mod...

    Am I going to die?

    I'm 29 years old. When I was a kid, we had a honda 75 that I rode non-stop from the time I was like 8 to 12. I haven't rode anything since then other than quads. I'm in the process of buying a 2005 FZ6 right now as I type this... Am I going to die? :confused:
