Glad you are OK buddy. It seriously ticks me off that the police wouldn't come. One time my car got hit in a parking lot (when I was in school) and it wrecked the bumber and tailight. The car (a big boat of a vehicle) that actually was parked right next to me had front end damage at the same...

WOW! How do you decide which bike to ride when? I have my FZ6 and a TW200 (enduro) so when I need to go offroad, I take the Teeny Weeny (hee hee TW200). Jason

I slurged on a bunch of RAM mounts.... one for my blackberry, one for my GPS, one that is a camera mount, and one that is a drink holder. Crazy. I also got a new pair of ginch since my last ones turned brown after I *almost* dropped my bike.;)

Makes me feel lucky to still be riding. Carpe Diem.

You know, I can't really explain it. To whoever said it is like slow motion, you are totally correct! I remember it feeling like I had a long time to decide what to do. And all I could think about was that I was not going to let my bike touch the ground. The bike was just about on the ground and...

"There's Art to be found there". Wow, I love it. Thanks for sharing. The last line says it all. :wav:

Ok, so add me to the ever-growing list of idiots who didn't buy frame sliders when they bought their bike. :spank: So I was out for a ride today, and just as I was backing into my driveway, my neighbor comes over. I had just turned the bike off. She started talking to me so I took my helmet off...

Great looking bike agmom!!!

I seem to have misplaced my receipt for this. :spank: However I do know for all three cases and required mounts I spent +/- $1100 (here in Canada).:canada: Not cheap given the whole bike was $7300 brand new here. But what great looking bags! The quality of the top box I do have is excellent...

HA! Thanks eh? :beer:

Thanks agmom! I received the top-mount case today, unfortunately not the side cases even though they were *supposed* to be shipped all together. I love the top-case though, I paid the extra for the "clear-coat" black so it matches the glossy black of my FZ6. Should look good once I get all the...

Can you explain to me what you mean by "slip the clutch"? I am not familiar with that. J:D

Hey everyone, about two weeks ago I ordered a complete set of hard-sided Givi bags for my 2008 FZ6 (in clear coat glossy black to match my "FASTER than BLUE" :eek: black FZ6). Of course this time of year they are back-ordered and they are telling me it will still be two weeks until they arrive...

I just bought a RAM camera mount so I can still keep one hand on the throttle and just press the shutter button to take the picture! Will post photos when it arrives.

ALMOST NEVER! There is usually a good reason for them that I can't always see until it is too late. The only time I have is if it is a slow vehicle (farmer moving a tractor or something).

Hey Kamloops! I live in Revelstoke! Contact me if you are driving through! Jason

Awesome thanks! I have run in to the situation where I'd like to grab a latte on the way home and then I realize, "I'm on my bike, where the heck will I put it?" I just ordered the RAM mount cup holder (and while I was there picked up the blackberry holder and the camera mount). Thanks! Jason

Yeah, that's kind of what happened to me. I dumped a (large and heavy) Suzuki Intruder going 70 km/hr and the wife said NO MORE STREET BIKES. I was fine other than sore for a while (I had full riding gear on). The bike was a write off. So, I bought a Yamaha TW-200 and enjoyed that for 2 years...

I don't wear earphones (regardless of the sound levels) because I know how music gets my adrenalin going. I know that if I get a good song playing I am bound to turn the throttle a little harder and corner a little deeper than I normally would! Sounds like complete perfection I am sure, but it...

I noticed the same thing on my 2008 FZ6, under about 4500 rpm the engine makes a clicking noise. Glad I am not the only one, I was wondering if I was having a problem.
