With a long overdue streetfighter conversion starting to take shape in my head, I had idea to create a custom instrument cluster using an Arduino and an LED Panel. I wanted something that would stand out, that would allow me to design a simple, pretty, and effective way of showing the...

Hey everyone, I've got a 2004 FZ6 with about 16000 miles on it--a few months ago before the winter I noticed a distinct buzzing sound coming from the engine; it would always start between 6000 and 7000 rpm. It happens whether or not the bike is in gear, whether or not it is stationary, and...

So a few weeks ago my older brother and I embarked on an epic motorcycle adventure...five days through four states. Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York, and Vermont. This was the first multi-day trip I've been on with my bike. I returned armed with 50 gigs of footage and the determination to create...

So I've been unable to ride for a few weeks since I laid my bike down. A local shop checked her over and mechanically she was sound. I took a half day at work today and plotted how I could make something legal out of the mangled fairing that I had--just so I could get a few more rides in before...

I hate this part, but I know I should do it. Being humiliated sucks but I believe it ultimately leads to growth. So I went down the other day. I cannot blame another driver for cutting me off, no one else was involved. I am pretty much completely fine, I have a decent size bruise on my right...

Hey all, So I just attempted a combo upgrade, FZ1 bars with heated grips. The FZ1 bars went on relatively painlessly, took a few hours, and it was dark by the time I finished. Regardless, I took a ride and I love how they feel, although I'm tempted to look into bar risers as I crushed my...

Hey all, So I decided to clean and lube my chain for the first time today aand I noticed that there seemed to be some missing parts at the end of my swingarm. On the right, both nuts and the plate(washer thing? Not sure what to call it...), and on the left, just one nut. See pics... From what I...
