Ughh. I feel for ya man, Tickets suck! They are expensive and take up a lot of time.... I know, I've gotten two within the last 13 months. Needless to say I drive slow all the time now.
-Good luck!
I named mine Liz. Its a fazer, thus fizzer, which sounds kinda like Lizzer, but it can't be Lizzer, so its Liz. Plus there is a nurse I know who is named Liz and I really like her, so I named my bike after her. :)
Nooooooo..... That really sucks, the FZ is awesome! Well, I guess I'll be keeping my 2005 till the end of time. Hopefully in 50 years it will be a classic. haha
I had mine done by a shop. They charged me $120 because I had a bunch of other stuff done to the bike at the same time. They said that if I had the valve clearances checked by themselves it would have been $200. :shock: Taking care of this bike is too expensive, so I'm starting to do all the...

Not infrequently I leave work and school headed for home. Shortly after my journey is begun I think "hey this is fun, it feels great!" So even though home is 10 min. away, it somehow takes me a good hour or two to get home as I trek through some twisties. and I thought I was the only one.... haha
DANG! I wish my Pilot Powers lasted like yours. I barely got 3k miles outta mine and I rode till there was no tread in the middle.... Do you ride hard in the twisties or just cruise?
