5k out the door? That's awesome! I owe a lot more than that on mine, embarassingly (thanks, in part, to the fact I was upside down on my previous bike when I traded it for my FZ). Good job, man!

How come you're getting rid of them? Are they better than the regular R6 forks (or is there much difference)?

Did your insurance go up? What did you do with your first bike? Have you considered parting it out for some extra cash? Good to see your injuries weren't worse . . . a girl at my school just died last week on her Kawi 650R when a cager made a left right in front of her. Seems like a ton of...

Do you know if they could be used for the '09 model year?

Don't forget about me for FL (maybe route through Daytona?) on the rider roster list!

Just get used to making it scream all the time, if you really want to get around fast . . . I came from a 1000 inline 4 with lots of low end torque, so sometimes I catch myself upshifting too far, and it 'lugs'. Letting the engine scream still seems 'wrong', but I'm getting used to it. For...

Don't forget a small bowling towel to wipe down condensation/visor crap/fogged up windows and mirrors! And a pair of vise grips . . . I heard that they're good to have in case you snap your gearshift lever or rear brake lever off, sometimes you can tightly clamp them on any metal remaining to...

You could always move to sunny Daytona Beach, FL here in the States so you could ride all year round!

No kiddin' about the 69 Honda CB350, we're working on one ourselves! We just got it running, gonna rebuild the engine next as it seems there is gas making its way into the oil . . . I love the look of the Honda Dream, I too wish you were closer! I would snatch it up in a heartbeat . . . argh!

The XJ: Bah, humbug! FZ all the way! And I'm not just saying that 'cuz I have one, I swear . . .

I've waved at quite a few, and a few have nodded/waved back . . . however, I know a buddy of mine got a ticket for doing 5 over in a 45 zone by a m/c cop, we're still puzzled by that one . . . and yesterday, I pulled onto a major road, saw a m/c cop several cars ahead of me, he actually pulled...

That's awesome! Great job, thanks to you, I've now got no fear of doing this myself!

Page 4 of that forum had the pic which shows you which pins to ground . . . thanks for the quick response, ya'all rock!

I keep hearing of using mysterious menus via the gauge cluster to tune the ECU a bit . . . I remember reading one post where the guy had adjusted "C0, C1 and C2" to accomodate his exhaust . . . does anyone know where to find more information on this? I have the feeling that the Power...

That looks outstanding! Good job!
