Hi Misti I'm a fairly new rider (less then 500 miles in the saddle) but I'm interested in taking a class to improve. How much experience would you recommend I get before I take the class? Also is there a certain speed I should be comfortable at before I take the class?

Looks like it's just the mole / eyebrow to me and I bought one from ronayers for 60 beans.

Hi Guys, I replaced my crankcase / alternator cover last weekend but I had some trouble getting the dowels to line up correctly. I finally got it but was wondering is there any tips on how to put the cover on easily? The magnet kept pulling the cover in before I could properly align it a...

Thanks guys I've been debating between the BT-016 / 2CT / Corsa III. Most likely going with the BT-016 as I don't see any track days this season. Hope this helps the rest of you guys. Compares all three YouTube - Supersport tires - Michelin 2CT, Pirelli Corsa III, Bridgestone BT-016...

Hi All, I was looking at the BT-016 and wondering which one is best for our bike? Should I just get the non-OE one? Thanks! glamourindex Bridgestone Battlax BT-016 Rear Tire - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore

I'll take the fairing and moles. LMK.

If he passes on the cowling I would be interested in it. Take care.

Thanks! I'll probably pick up a tube just incase rather have it and not use it then need it and not have it.

I recently purchased one but spent two months searching. The main problem was distance for me as I didn't have a way to get the bike back to my apartment. I finally found a local seller. If you are having a hard time selling try listing in a 2-3 hour radius but you need to show many detailed...

I just laid her down today >< was practicing the u-turns couldn't complete it so I stopped holding the clutch in but not the brake w/ the wheel turned left. It slide from underneath me and plop... no frame sliders so I ended up with the clutch lever bent, crank case cover scratched, minor nick...

Thanks for the replies. I've checked an FZ6 at the dealer and the bracket isn't as wobbly as mine. It's not a big deal, was just wondering if there was a way to firm it up a more.

The bracket which the foot peg and gear shifter are attached to is wobbly. I've tried tightening the bolts but they seem to be tightened as far as they will get. Do I have any other options other then replacing the whole bracket? It's not terribly loose but I would like it to be firmer. Thank you!
