    Valve Clearance Results

    Lol @ 3rd cylinder I'm running pure organic apple and almond butter blended 50/50 by hawaiian hookers on a secret mountain top while sacrificing chickens, so I know my 3rd cylinder is going to actually LOOSEN UP back to stock, on its own. :D

    What to know before to buy

    If you like wind, get the honda. If you prefer less wind, the fz. Miles don't mean anything to either of the bikes. Be careful, new rider: the power is surprisingly different above 7000 rpm.

    speeding remedy?

    let's turn it around then :-) the fines for speeding are levels of magnitude, that generally match the degree of which you broke the law/ordinance. it's fair, it's real, it's accepted by people/society, or they would refuse (en masse) to pay the fines. would you prefer SUV's (helllo...

    Apparently i'm crazy, but wont give up! (ice riding)

    unless you're getting paid very handsomely to test snow tires, studs, or ER response times, i see absolutely no benefit in riding in those temperatures.

    Armor All, Plexus, or Pledge for the Plastics and Occasional Polishing?

    When to Downshift into 1st

    some folks misunderstood, that's all. if you downshift too early, and release the clutch in 1st, while still rolling, say above 20mph or so, it will cause the back end to slide/skid. engine braking is awesome on the fz6. whatever you do, don't test the theory on a wet road, it will bite you...

    Adventure bikes are for wimps! (FZ6 dirt and gravel thread)

    i know video always looks slower, and this is by no means a bash or ridicule- but is the 100+ kmph or mph ? either way is freak-like fast, and what a view ! rock on. :-)

    Protective motorcycle footwear

    the only protection those provide is a very very little bit of abrasion resistance. please, consider a full on motorcycle boot. those are worthless above walking speed.

    Chain adjustment

    i may be doing it wrong, but: sidestand, neutral, scale agaist the swingarm, then pull the chain up/down and measure. then roll the bike 1 foot back, repeat x3. gives a good idea where the chain is tightest/loosest. i adjust for 1 3/4" slack.

    Cars with blind spot monitoring

    i've seen this working, and it prevented a mercedes suv driver from crossing into my lane. the time it happened was on a two lane bridge, 60-80 feet above the lower road. it literally prevented an accident, likely with heavy injuries or deaths. would a driver who was actually paying...

    0-206 km/h

    not trying to take the fun out of going fast, just hoping (like it appears you realized) how quickly things can go really bad. i ran wide in a turn the first time on a motorcycle a few weeks ago. it was terrifying, and i left the road traveling at only 35-40 mph, on a dual-sport, into a...
