yup, justification by gas mileage is nearly impossible for anything that needs ins. and maintenance. the only way it even comes close is if you plan on owning it forever and have a ridiculously long commute. Defy's got some closer numbers for ya, except the oil, depending on what you use. I...

I enjoy watching it. There's something about watching high skill (TV) and the careless stupidity (YouTube)

Also happy with my local Cycle Gear. Heck, the managerlet my 8 year old son stay and work for her while I ran errands and they changed my street tires! Paid him w/ a pair of riding socks; he was stoked! :rockon: As for good online experiences: Motorcycle superstore - :thumbup: Dennis Kirk -...

I was wondering about that... What's the hp of the speed?

Sorry to hear that. :confused: I've been VERY pleased with them in the past.

cool :rockon:

the torque is on the next page. It's not got a great curve, but the peak isn't far off. this is 2006 data...

the more miles I put on these tires, the more i like them :rockon:

Unfortunately I can't change my vote, but I hit $0 before I saw tire changes in there. I have paid them for that, but I just took the wheels to them, not the whole bike. I bought the tires from them as well. I don't remember which tires, I think it was the Conti Road Attacks they hooked me up on.

This is good. Keep the tesimonials coming. I want to get a really tall one for this winter. I'm tired of having to tuck in for the whole ride to work when it's in the teens...

Nice! I gotta get my rearsets painted... :thumbup: I've read a lot of great reviews on this seat, but never has anybody said how it works for riding twisties or trackdays? Any thoughts? Can anyone chime in from experience?

I have a '96 XR400 bored out to 426. It is a great ole bike. I try not to do wheelies when the kids are riding with me unless they're old enough to have good helmets on (instead of bicycle helmets). All 4 of my sons ride, and I'm planning on starting her this summer. My youngest son is 5.5 and...

Awesome! Get her a dirtbike. 3 is when I start my kids out on theirs. JR50 is tiny :thumbup: I dont' think I've taken my 3 year old daughter on the FZ yet, but I've taken her on my XR plenty 'o times.

I just bought whatever one Cycle Gear ordered for me. I can't honestly say I know what difference it makes if you buy a bike-model specific :confused: I've never bought one... Don't waste your money on the BT-020's...

Thing about those workglove syou bought, they aren't made to stay on your hadn while it is sliding across pavement. If you're actually moving when you fall, they'll be sitting back on the road where you fell, not on your hands where you are after you're done sliding and tumbling. Thank the Lord...

cool :thumbup: have fun!

I test rode it brand new w/o mods, but that was it. I had new turnsignals waiting at home alrady, and I made my own FE. All before I even rode it around the block :D

that's a GREAT idea, esp. since he found the broken off tab. I'd look into that even if the carrier's ins. pays up! BTW, welding would be very risky. I wouldn't recommend it due to such high tolerances on the inner bore..

that is correct

Details are here: Rock Springs Christian Motorcycle Group (RSCMG) I'll be meeting them at the intersection of 11 & 178 @ 10:00 AM. They don't ride as fast as I do, but I plan on doing about the first hour with them, and then I"ll be finishing at my own pace (fairly fast). I would like to...
