    Bike Drop

    I'm not worried about not getting the money from him (too many negatives in there?) I didn't let anyone touch my FZ6 when it was my only bike, and no one has touched my FZ1; but since the FZ6 just sits in the garage waiting to be sold I've been more relaxed about that. If it was a smaller...

    Bike Drop

    Yeah, well that's definitely going to happen... But should I just tell him to shop around for the parts to fix it, just make him pay for some part of the difference in what I could get for selling the bike?

    Bike Drop

    I've been trying to sell my FZ6 for a while now, because I upgraded to an FZ1 and don't need it. My roommate has been riding motorcycles for a long time - but due to family financial issues had to sell his earlier this year. I let him borrow my FZ6 and he managed to drop it and melt some of...

    Anyone else in NY/NJ area feel that earthquake/tremor?

    I was at work in downtown Louisville, KY on the 10th floor of a building. It gently rocking for about 20 seconds, then swaying for another minute or so. A friend of mine 2 blocks from me didn't feel it on the 1st floor. First time I'd felt one -- the last one that Louisville felt (in 2008)...

    Two steep hills and short legs = bad news :(

    Sorry to hear that. I thankfully don't have this problem, I'm able to stand up (both feet on the ground) with the bike under me.

    Head On Crash

    I'm surprised they're okay after that -- glad though.

    Oh, It's Too Hot

    Re: tank bag Most of my riding is the work commute, but with this heat (even with traffic) it isn't a big enough concern for me to have something with me. I drink water all day while I'm at the office, and a glass or few in the evenings when I get home. When I'm out on longer rides I just...

    Death by Xbox

    I used to have plenty of 12-18 hour gaming sessions, but I'd get up every hour even if it was to the kitchen for a drink and the bathroom for... I sit at a desk for 8-10 hours a day for work, but I get up and walk around frequently there too. Also, no matter where I'm sitting, the...

    Spare Helmet Size?

    My spare helmets are Fulmer. The dealer was running buy one for $150 get one for a penny, so I picked up a small and XL for spare helmets. My roommate recently sold his bike for financial reasons, so I'm considering his medium as a spare helmet for me too. I probably wouldn't buy a used...

    Slow Down

    That thread title I did on purpose -- crafty me! I have Tapatalk and use it frequently. It wasn't a matter of forum access as much as it was time to read.

    I'm going to make this hill my bitch.

    Funny story -- I'd be in her position if I was riding a bicycle, especially uphill. I rode my bike to work one day back in 2006, a measly 4.5 miles. I couldn't sit down for the rest of the day. After riding home I couldn't sit down for the rest of the week. The ride wasn't exhausting. I...

    Slow Down

    I went out of town, and then a friend of mine is in town from Texas, so I've been away from the forum for a week, give or take. You people need to slow down... I got on this evening to 2,115 unread posts, I can't catch up to that.

    hot butt

    I love that decision tree, made me laugh for sure. My temperature problems didn't come from the seat, unless I had the bike sitting in the sun for a while before I got on it. I always felt heat coming from the engine, mostly on my legs, not heat coming from the exhaust. I don't consider...

    Young kid died not too far away this past weekend

    This is sad to see, but isn't surprising given the situation. I hate to say it was only a matter of time before it happened, because in that time there was the possibility of change. When I started riding I only wore a helmet, even though my other biker friends had at least jacket and...

    Hapless blonde crashes her £250,000 Bentley

    I loved the little bit in that article about what the University of Michigan found. Oh, and yeah that accident has to be embarrassing.
