    Weight+style vs. mileage

    Hey, take your versys elsewhere! :Flip: j/k Never really put enough emphasis on the starting the engine and stop and go always sucks, but it's unavoidable. Stupid city driving. I still wanna know how people with the -1 front are getting 60+mpg. I'm a bit on the "day'um" side (gabriel iglesias)...

    Weight+style vs. mileage

    So, 175 tall guy and 290 almost as tall guy see different gas mileage? SHOCKER!!!! (spank) the extra 100 plus pounds equates to <9-10 mpg difference. BUT you also have the smaller front sprocket... AKA, I need to give my bike the ultimate upgrade for power, torque, and fuel economy... A TREADMILL...

    Weight+style vs. mileage

    I'm curious about this because I was reading the 15t front sprocket thread, and someone reported having the smaller front sprocket and still getting roughly 60 miles per gallon. I have a stock setup, ride it like a total (meow), and very seldomly ride two up... I usually get about 48-52 mpg...

    360 isn't "modded"...

    I'm computer retarded, but my old roommate modded the **** out of his 360 and got around with with some sort of rerouting his IP through some sort of what he dumbed down for me to be a "filter site" and it allowed him to run (with a fair amount of lag, on a very fast internet connection) without...

    My first water crossing!

    Pretty fun isn't it? A few years back I94 had a patch that was under water between milwaukee and waukesha. It was only about a foot, but none of the TRUCKS even tried to cross. For about a 30 foot stretch up to mid calf was in the drink. It was a blast! Glad to hear you had similar success...

    Blinker PROB's

    Recently installed a clear alternatives LED brake light / blinker eliminator, and the right side works beautifully in tandem with the stock units. The left side is another story, only the stock unit works, while the tail only dims slightly. We crossed the right male to the left female, and the...

    SuperDuke 990

    I know about how awesome (although illegal) KTM's commercials are, but I was wondering if anyone had some real world experience with their bikes? Long and short of it, is I've been pinching pennies and finally have a few to rub together. Any reviews positive or negative would be great! (Kinda...

    Riding Habits:

    Drag strips soothe the savage beast... plus 100+ is slow there... 120 seems to feel good... just be sure to slow down SLOWLY!

    How cold is too cold for you?

    Too cold doesn't exist... the limiting factor is SNOW, especially in our neck of the woods... If it's not white out, RIDE! Good leather jacket/gloves and heavy pants are perfect. I've ridden last year around 18-21 degrees and it was chilly but fun. DAMN SNOW!!!
