    Tyre

    I just put on a pilot road2 also. Only about 75 miles so far, so no real opinion yet. From what I read, people were getting good mileage out of them , and were very happy with their performance.

    How to rear tire??

    I should be doing this next week, after my tire gets here(Pilot road2). I'll let you know if I run into any difficulties. A friend of mine just did this on his kids R-6, he said it was pretty easy. Obviously it is a little different, but not much.

    Eyewear?

    If it's sunny I have a pair of Oakleys, with Iridium lenses, with the arms cut short. They fit great under my helmet and are really good at reducing glare. They are not distracting att all. I was told that polarized was not a good idea, because you might not be able to see oil on the road. I...

    Shifting to N or 1 problems

    I did read your post, Why are you stopping in 5th, 3rd, or 2nd? It sounds like you are not downshifting. I'm sorry if I'm misunderstanding you. Are you having trouble downshifting while you are moving, or are you stopping completely, then trying to go down through the gears?

    Shifting to N or 1 problems

    Why would you not be in N or 1st while you are stopped, or even more confusing when you start your bike???? The FZ6 and the bikes I previously owned ( EX-500 and CBR600F2) all did this. If for some odd reason I was not in N or 1st, I would have to engafe the clutch a little to change gears.

    Looking for a flat black helmet.

    HJC makes a few. CL-SP, CL-15, AND AC-12. I bought my wife the CL-SP in flat black from newenough for $99, but they are out of the black. It is a nice helmet though.

    07 ZX-10 is now parked in my garage.

    So, the other day I go to my Father-in-law's garage (he lives 2 houses down) and there is an 07 ZX-10 parked there ( HE has never ridden a motorcycle in his life). Now I'm really confused. Yesterday my wife calls me at work and asks if it is OK if this bike can be moved to our garage? No...

    Do you think tattoos on women are attractive?

    Thanks, but I would like to be able to see it, without having to look in a mirror. I might have to just go up higher on my arm, on the outside of the shoulder. I'm just waiting for the day that she asks why her name is not there.

    Do you think tattoos on women are attractive?

    I have 2 tatts, both are on my upper biceps, they are the names of my 2 oldest daughters with a tribel design going all the way around my arm. Nobody can see them, if I don't want them too, but I can see them whenever I want to. The only problem is, daughter #3. I ran out of biceps. She is now...

    Withdrawl symptoms

    Just got a HJC youth helmet today. I took two of my three daughters (ages 12 and 8) out for a ride today, not far, just around the neighborhood. They have been bugging me for the last two weeks. They loved it.
