    Agonizing choice of touring windscreens: GIVI ??

    I read some comments from the guys at Cal Sci. They tried and tried to make one for the '04-06 FZ6. With the design of the fairing they couldn't get it to work to their high standards. They would rather not make one at all then put out a product that they were not satified with/proud of. I can...

    Why do we mod our bikes?

    Ride To Work Day

    I escort funeral processions. I have a former CHP BMW. The company I work for contracts with funeral homes and we provide the escorts. Interesting work and fun. We don't deal with the grieving families much, so that sadness is not part of my day to day life. I've been doing it part time since...

    Ride To Work Day

    Pretty much a moot point for me. I ride for a living. If I'm not riding, I'm not working.

    So who wants one of these?

    Now that's funny. As to the law, probably something similar to shouting "Fire" in a crowded theater.

    Fz6 Down

    Is it legal to lane-split in Texas?

    As far as I know CA is still the only state where it is legal. I understand AZ had some pending legislation that was a "trial period" of some sort and also was limited to the population centers.

    $100 Stop light--divine intervention?

    The Stop light thread got me thinking of an incident that happened to me very early in my riding life. I was at a stoplight on my way home from work at about 11:00 PM. I was in neutral (I know I know, I did say I was a new rider at the time.) I'm looking around and I see what appears to be a...
