    i need more pick me up!

    I'll double on what has been said the FZ6 should have no issue keeping up with 2 out of the 3 bikes you mentioned. You might just need to adjust your riding style. I ride with an '08 CBR600 all the time and have no problem keeping up with or blowing by at my leisure. Matter of fact from a stop...

    Parking - Side Stand or Center Stand?

    I only use my center stand for maintenance and such. Rest of the time it's side.

    The Knee Drag

    No dragging knees for me, but I did scrape my toe a couple times before I adjusted my foot position correctly. I also scraped the peg feelers a couple times last time I went up in the mountains.

    Why/when get a big bike?

    That pretty much sums it up.....:squid: I've been riding on and off for 10years and never had a need for anything much more than a 600 and as the years go on the 600's get faster and faster as well. I have two buddies one with Busa another with ZX-14 and they both pretty much fit wrightme's...

    Intrest in 2009 Dragons Tail Meet.

    I'd love to go but looking to have a newborn in the house around that time so no go for me. Timing kinda sucks too cause I had a weeks vacation planned around that time to do the Dragon and tour all the way across NC. Probably going to move that week earlier/later in the year.

    Tire mounting fees

    Sounds a bit much to me my dealer charges $60 for both or $40 for one when I buy the tires from them. That's with me just dropping the bike off.

    Winter Riding

    I ride most of the winter. IMHO when it's cold enough to worry about Ice it's to cold for me to ride any distance. But until the high is below 40* I am riding. If you were to ride when there is worry about Ice just treat it similar to wet roads everything smooth and with extra caution you should...

    BT020's in the wet? :o

    No problem here out of my BT's, ridden on wet roads or in the rain quite a few times with no issues. Matter of fact I have been very pleased with their wet weather performance.

    Aww crap! Flat tire.

    I am not against plugging a tire in the right scenario but where that one has a hole I would replace it. I have a plug in mine at the moment but it was a small piece of wire in a non-contact area in the sipes. Picked it up a week after replacing the original due to a 16p nail. My Bridgestone...

    who would you vote for and why?

    You know it's a real simple vote for me not that I am overly crazy about either Candidate. It would be a cold day in hell before I voted for a candidate that doesn't even know how many states there are(57 according to Obama) and who's wife refers to the caucasion community as "Whitey". That in...

    After riding with David this weekend I have to say he is one good dude. He is by far the most level headed newbie sport rider I have ever ridden with. He knew his limits and did not go beyond them. We rode well over 100 miles at a good pace although I led most of the way I never had to stop just...

    Messed up my 07 Windshield

    Ouch...shoulda called me I could of warned you about fingernail polish it will cloud up that poly pretty bad. Did you get the paint off yet? You might try carb cleaner to remove the rest of the paint. Then you can try re-spraying it all black, the clouding may not show up much. If not ebay...

    How do you fill your tank?

    If I am in a hurry I don't even get off the bike but if I am taking my time or in need of a break I just get off and put it on the side stand. Once it get's close to full I tilt it up straight with my leg and fill the rest of the way.

    Speedo question?

    Well I carried the GPS with me today and I guess the Radar box was off. I am showing roughly 6% off. At indicated 50mph I am doing 47.2 and at 85mph I am doing 80.5. Had a 12 Satellite position fix on the GPS so it should be very accurate.
