However, it had a few bells and whistles tech-wize…EFI, oil cooling…and decent low end grunt for fun on twisties like in the smokys. It wasn’t a cruiser, rather...

    My new dream bike!!! Enter the "baby block"

    You could scoot over to the Barber Vintage Fest in Leeds next month (12th – 14th) and see them in person. Short hop for you, Leeds is close to Birmingham where Motus is HQ'd. Last year they had the prototypes at the Fest. Very cool motorcycles. Maybe this year they’ll have demo rides. :)

    Help me find my way home.

    Wow! Heck of a road trip you’ve got going on here. I rode down from BC through Montana last month on a road trip and agree…Montana was amazing. From there I shot south down into Utah and saw Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in Moab in eastern Utah. Moab is off your currently mapped track...

    Long ride, next week

    If you tack on another 20 miles and do it in a day, you could get an Iron Butt SS1000 Cert. :) SaddleSore 1000/Bun Burner 1500 Rules

    This seems like a bike that most FZ6 owners would appreciate.

I also have a Ram EZ-Strap Mount ( Click ), which although I use it for my spot device, can use...
