    Really? Again? Barely over a month?

    That sucks. Makes you want to strangle them, doesn't it? :spank: Glad you're safe.

    What would you do...just came into some money

    This is one mean machine. Haven't ridden an R, but the s3 w/o the Ohlins kit is a beast. I've always wanted one. Justin, you are the man. I wish I had your job, bro. This is my calendar. Head over to MotoUSA to check it out. Now, this FZ1 I found somewhere on the...

    What would you do...just came into some money

    I've seen that bike. Not on the road, of course. But I am def gonna find a KTM dealer. But I gotta tell ya, the money's already spent. The S3R is a beast.

    What would you do...just came into some money

    Sorry guys.....been away collecting some well earned hush money. He was very apologetic. Went by his house. Nice family, you could see he had his **** together. Looking at his house, I could have asked for me. :BLAA: I talked to him and he seems like a very decent guy. Nice family...

    What would you do...just came into some money

    I also forgot to mention. When I was younger, and much stupider, I got behind the wheel of my brand new 92 corvette. Less than six months old. Met a girl in a dive bar called Stringfellows, decided to go back to my place. Filled the Vette up with gas, and next thing I knew my companion was...

    What would you do...just came into some money

    Believe me, my GF went back and forth on what we should do, morally, and whatnot. Reality is, the lawyer I hired ran his abstract. He was never picked up for DWI. I have been. I know the hell it is living through it. You feel like the red headed stepchild at the end of the bar. It cost me...

    just got some new rubber

    I too need some rubber. I've read goo things about the 0023. Is it one of those things where Bridgestone doesn't spend a ton of cash on advertising so a good tire goes unnoticed. I'm looking to replace the OEM crapola Dunlops. May I ask, what did these run you mounted balanced and installed...

    What would you do...just came into some money

    I am determined to ride this season and for the foreseeable future no matter what the doctor tells me. Here's the thing. I was involved in a minor accident with a drunk driver who is kinda loaded. He didn't want to go through insurance as he was bombed. I've got it all on video. He knows...

    Has your bike ever hit the ground?

    Four weeks after getting my new to me FZ6, my adorable daughter leaned on the right side of the bike. That's not a good idea. She then tried to get on from the right side even though I spent time with her earlier that day how to get on and off properly. Not her fault. She's gonna be a pole...

    Back pain sucks a$$

    That's just it. I've got arthritis, a pinched sciatic nerve b/w L4 L5 and the way the doc descrbed it, I have no more gushy stuff b/w my L4 L5 disc. He suggested disk surgery. Problem with the pain pills is that they don't work any longer. I've been on them over 2 years. I actually function...

    All in one night. Sold the FZ :( and bought an SV :)

    All I can saw is WOW. You really stepped in sh*t didn't ya.The SV1000 has got to go for more on NADA. Enjoy the heck out of it. It rides like a tank and is as nimble as a fox. You'll be happy not to be blown all over the road on the FZ. Congrats and ride safe. And let us know how those...

    Back pain sucks a$$

    Doc told me I'd be pain free. That was over a month ago. Gave me these powerful painkiller which leave me sitting on the couch all day. I gained 40 pounds waiting for the surgery and I am now starting to lose it. Still look funny zipped up in my Vanson. HeHe. Anyway, I woke up at 2pm, took...

    Where to you guys draw your power

    Where to you guys draw your power for your GiPro and various other goodies. I'd rather not have it drain while off so I have it going to the rear brake light. And a Moronhealer is on it's way so I don't have to do math while riding.;) Any other bright ideas where I should clip into?

    Seat Lock Jammed?

    Thanks to all you numbskulls who could have simply said stick a large hammer under the seat push left and voila. Seat pops open. All the damn salt corroded it. I have already ordered a whole new latch and cable mechanism from Bike Bandit (if there was a sponser site I should have used, let me...

    *****FZ6 Riders: How Tall Are You?*****

    For what it's worth I am 6'2"except I have short legs. 31" inseam. Torso is rather long. Finding a windshield to fit properly is a chore. Like the CalSci screens.

    Still can't ride even after back surgery....

    Actually, the physio has me do reverse sit-up's, where I flex my lower back in order to strengthen the lower back muscles. This seems to work best out of all the exercises. I'd like to get one of these machines for my home. The doctor once told me I have no muscle mass in my lower back...

    Seat Lock Jammed?

    Not to revive a dead thread, but I had the same thing to deal with this morning. Last winter I had to rush to the hospital. GF was in a car accident in my car. Hospital is less than five miles away. However, there was snow on the ground and snow means salt. Yuck. Well, she was safe, but...

    Still can't ride even after back surgery....

    Well, some of you may know I had surgery last year. Missed the entire season. Doc said I was cleared to ride, but I still have terrible pain in lower back area after a long ride (50-100 miles). As such, I've listed her for sale, but the thing is I feel as if I haven't done everything I...
