    Getting dressed!

    Agree with above post. I went to a litre bike but came back to a 600. The acceleration was so ridiculous it wasn't fun because you were literally doing twice the speed limit in 2 seconds. A friend said to me I will always have a 600 because it's fun revving the sh** out of it. On a bigger bike...

    Awesome?

    I like it. You would need to look a certain way to own something like that though. I would just look like a tool.

    This makes motorcycles seem as safe as lying down

    I posted this in a thread just now, but thought it deserved it's own one. I dare you to watch all of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k4Xk1mEwmI&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    Why do men die before women, you ask?

    Had an 'off' today

    I know it looks bad, but i can wiggle all my toes, move my foot up and down and from side to side in all directions with no sharp pain. Ive had this injury before but it was worse last time, and the x-ray showed no broken bones. It's nice to know you guys are concerned,:thumbup: but i reckon...

    Had an 'off' today

    Yeah more elevation than ice though. It does look pretty bad, but is definately feeling better each day. I still walk with a limp but i stopped taking the pain killers and pain relieving gel yesterday, and have a lot more movement in it than i did have. Had to do alot of walking yesterday, could...

    Had an 'off' today

    It's been a few days now, thought I'd post a piccy of the swollen foot. Notice the line of black bruising along the foot.

    what and when??

    It's my buddys stag party this weekend, although we are having a practice session tonight, ready for the proper session tomorrow night. I will be drinking maybe Bud and then on to Cider once my stomach cant take any more beer. With the odd shot in between. As you may no from my thread, I am...

    Kawasaki Versys 1000 miles in review!

    I've heard another reason for this under engine exhaust trend is not only for weight saving but it creates a lower centre of gravity. And although the Versys is a dual sport it is probably geared more towards road use than off road use. But hey, I agree, I don't really like how they look.

    Had an 'off' today

    To be honest it does feel like I have broken it. But I can stand on it, I just can't bend it at all without extreme pain. I always go on the idea that if it's broken there's no way you can stand on it. Hope I'm right.

    Had an 'off' today

    And my FZ6 is totally and completely..............fine. You see, I was on a mountain bike, riding with my friend. As we approached a tricky downhill section where another friend had come a cropper a few weeks earlier. I turned to my buddy to see if he was alright, and in taking my eyes off the...

    found my limits

    hahaha this made me laugh. It reminded me of a fellow military driving instructor I used to work with. He used to talk about near death experiences on the road with trainee soldiers by saying "I was pinching the fabric of the seat with my a$$hole" and he would then make a puckering sound.

    Anyone have a vanity plate??

    found my limits

    I nearly had a low side a few months ago. Bit of mud on road, stupidly too much power out of turn and rear end slid, a lot, backed off throttle and immediately and it caught but luckily not in a way to high side me. Weirdly I like these rare experiences, they teach me lessons on the bikes...

    Video of Eurotrip 2011 with Cali Rider

    Being from the UK it was interesting to hear your French accent with an American twang to it. Looking forward to the other videos especially Le Pont du Gard, I went there in 2004 but had to leave early :( It's nice to see videos of members, you can put a face and personality to the words...
