    SoCal Maintenance Day plan?

    Just to give you a heads up, you might not want to paint your bike as you're talking about doing...the more red it is, the slower it gets. :( I got everything for a basic maintenance...what were you planning to do? I've been that way myself with all teh cars and now motorcycles. I just...

    Apples and Oranges

    He used to bend his elbows with teh FZ6 so I wouldn't expect him or any other good (aggressive) fz6 rider. its no big deal for me going to work or a few hours in the twists but doing long hauls in straight lines, i couldn't even imagine them to be honest. if i'm tired from work, i struggle...

    I no longer can enter the BOTM.

    hence my choice in him for the facial expression for going with another red bike ;) I have AAA, had my license forever, and I think one point for this calendar year. When I removed the FZ6, I had the Tacoma only and I was to get a $50 (or so) rebate. I was mad! Then I asked how much to...

    Dyno tune with CO adjustment Leo Vince

    I'm willing to bet the +x indicates how much fuel you're adding.

    I used to do the same when I had my FZ6. I might try a SV650 or Z1000 or FZ1, but I'll never get a fetal position bike again.

    Sean and Vince are pretty good about helping...and they're the guys who are super-fast. They're down to Earth, wont get any BS from them, and to the point. What the books and people teach goes hand in hand with comfort with the bike...gotta put in time on the twists.

    ? about HD Sportster

    I'm considering buying a cruiser in the near future (definitely the far future) but for me, HD is a hard sell. The main reason...bang for buck, bike for $'s. Same or more than a new Ducati Monster? Speed Triple? I don't mind spending extra for more, but not for less. I was really struck by...

    Apples and Oranges

    Thanks guys. I guess that's it though- the R1 / R6 is more of a toy bike (same with the honda/suzuki equivalents). the sv is something i might get also, naked though. I should also say, its very light feeling, and I was right all along about the fz6 being so top heavy. the r1 is much...
