    FZ6 in Drive thru? - Surfboard on a bike?

    And if you choose the right car wash, you can get a free bag of popcorn and glass of lemonade to boot! :D

    FZ6 in Drive thru? - Surfboard on a bike?

    Pretty much the only place I go through drive throughs on my fz6 is through taco bell. I always get lots of gawking by the employees. One night I went through and the guy at the window (jaw on the ground) said that was the first time he ever seen a bike in a drive through. He then called his...

    overpants or chaps?

    A cheap and easy fix is the following. Go to th bike shop and buy a pair of those knee guards that folks wear for dirt bike racing i think. Slip those on under your pants and ride off to work. THey are only like 16 bucks and they will protect your knees from not only getting scratched but from...

    Well looky what I found?

    Lately I've found that I've been relying on the clock on my fz6 for the time more and more often. I've found myself actually turning the bike on (when I'm near by) just to check the time. Well looky what I found!? I was just settin on my ride today while waiting for my wife to come back when...

    A tip for selling your cycle

    When I sold my last bike, my rule was that they put the actual cash in my hot little hand until they returned from the test ride. If they dropped it (my bike had never been dropped) or crashed it - they automatically bought it. Glad that the purchaser was level headed and didn't end up suing...

    Tires

    Dunlop sportmax roadsmart tires. Pretty new design (last year I think?) They have dual compound design. Soft rubber on the sides for extra stick and harder rubber in the middle for extra durability. I have one on my rear (got a nail a few months ago in my last tire - under 800 miles!) and I...

    for you Puig windscreen owners

    Yes, It is a very strange way to do business. I called them up and asked them about changing my shipping address, and because my order had not left the warehouse yet, the lady actually went and automatically upgraded me to the "drop ship" order. She even had it shipped out of the Arizona...

    for you Puig windscreen owners

    Woo-hooo! My new Puig Racing Light smoke screen just arrived from UPS today! I have only installed it, but dang it looks perty! Just a heads up for you who have not shopped at Kneedraggers before. During checkout - they have a option that says "DropShip", use this option - this means that...

    Dunlop RoadSmart Tires??

    I just picked up a rear Roadsmart tire and have been riding around on it for about 200 miles. I have not ridden it in the wet yet nor the twisty, but I don't get that "I think I'm going to lose traction feeling" in my agressive street cornering. I can't comment to much on the stock tire...

    for you Puig windscreen owners

    thanks for the info Nimz. I think I will go for the light smoke then. Anybody have the blue version and wish to comment along with posting some pics?

    for you Puig windscreen owners

    Ok, I have to ask all you owners of the light smoke windscreen. If you either wear sunglasses, or have a smoked visor - can you still see out of the windscreen when you are tucked in behind it? Or are you wishing at that point that you had bought a clear screen instead of light smoke?

    Here is a lower seat

    You could just shave the seat you have and only spend about 50 bucks. I think I can try to find the step by step picture instructions that somebody made for my last bike (yzf600r) on how to do it yourself. Let me know, and i'll try to find it if anybody is interested.

    Happy Birthday Amigo! So, how many are you this year? Sounds like you got a pretty sweet girl if she is willing to spring for bike parts!

    What are you eating right now?

    Just finished munching on a delicious subway Veggie delight with extra onions and tomatoes on a scrumsious Honey Oat bun. Mix that with some garden flavored Sun Chips and all washed down with a glass of milk. Deliscious!
