I actually worked at Cycle Gear for a while. When the Sedici brand came out, I was skeptical. However, after examining it a bit, I found that it's pretty decent quality for riding suits. Granted, it's not the best on the market, but still not bad gear for the price. It's pretty much what...

Lol! That's pretty funny. Question is, which one would be safer in an accident?

Congrats! Great looking bike!

I do ride year round. Even though there is a limit on temps where I'll say the heck with it and take my vehicle, I have been known to ride when temps have been as low as 18°F. In those cases, I just layer like crazy. Torso and arms - I'll put on an undershirt, a heavy sweater, and my...

Good to hear you getting back on a bike. Similar to you, I was off two wheels for around 12-13 years. And again, like you, my first bike to get after that was an FZ6. Great bike, lots of fun. Congrats!

:Im With Stupid: Although I've been riding for a few years now, I still take some of the crazier twisty roads at my own pace. Something about a high sense of my own mortality I guess. Although I'm not always the slowest in some of the groups I ride with, the other riders are always waiting...

That's pretty spiffy! :rockon:

Glad that you're ok and are only bruised up a bit. Like everyone else said, things happen. Based on what you mentioned, you weren't doing anything wrong, no foolishness or anything else like that. It is what it is, an accident. As for the insurance, I dunno. That one's a tough call. <shrug>

Chicken strips? Yeah, I gots them. Even after doing a track day. Maybe around 1/8" or less on rear, and 1/4" or less on the front. I do hang off the bike, but not a whole lot. Then again, even on the track, I'm slow. Not the slowest, but far from the fastest, and I'm ok with that.

Although the bar is already sold, I can attest that these bars are great. I have one on my Z1000 and I love it. Handles great, feels good, and changes the looks on the bike.

The latest episode is now up and running. In this one, we test out the 2007 Honda CBR600RR. We have a lot of fun on this bike, and it shows. Check it out! Episode 5: 2007 Honda CBR600RR And for those of you who have a Facebook account, don't forget to go to the page and 'Like' us! :D...

:Im With Stupid: I just installed some shorty levers and found that I do the same: three on clutch, two on brake. Seems to work just fine. Prior to that on the regular levers, I used 4/4.

I went to my boss today and told her that I needed some time off. For bereavement. She glanced up at me with a slightly confused look and seemed like she wasn't too sure what to say. I then told her that Steve Jobs had died and that I needed some time to mourn. She told me to get out of her office.

I've had an iPhone since 2007 when it first came out. In fact, I've had every model since. I usually get the new one and sell the older one on Craigslist for pretty close to what I paid for the new. Initially, I wasn't planning on upgrading to the iPhone 4S. Of the primary upgrades mentioned...

As much of a Top Gear (British) junkie that I am, I was all excited about the US version when it first came out. I could only watch around 5 minutes of it before I turned the TV off.

Now that's some cool s#!& there! Gonna post that on the TopEnd FB page! :rockon:

Oooh! Kind of like the Spirograph that I had as a kid. Except it didn't drill square holes. Or came on a big piece of machinery. And used colored pens and stencil tools. And... Never mind.
