Dos any know of a good private bike mechanic in the Portland, Oregon area?

Sold my FZ6 at 3:00 today. Bought my FZ1 an hour ago. Tomorrow I'll pick it up. Pictures to follow.............

I have been out researching bikes again. I am considering the acquisition of something a little more exotic. I have looked at: Ducati S2R Monster Aprilla Shiver 750 KTM Super Duke 990 Buell XB12S I've ridden the Duc and KTM, and spoke to dealers about all four. I'm looking for...

I did not turn anytihng up in a search, although this may have been asked: I'm looking for a nice pair of leather riding gloves. No cuff, gel palms, velcro closure. Anyone got any they really like?

How does everyone go about carrying their license and and insurance? I put them into two zip locked baggiess and stuck them under the seat. Seems pretty low tech though.

I have a right knee that has been altered surgically a few times and I think I might be a little more comfortable on the bike if the seat to peg distance were a shade bigger (perhaps an inch). It seems to me that the only opportunity here might be to change the seat. Can anyone tell me what...

Are there options available for changing foot pegs? I'm curious, it still has not stopped raining here in Oregon and I was wondering if 1) anyone knew of a little less slippery design and 2) if they could be installed on the FZ6? Maybe it just my shoes too.:D

Here's one: My bike is an '07. Occasionally, when warm, it won't start immediately. I have to crank it a few times. If it was not fuel injected, I say it was flooded. Not a big problem, it just seems to be a little finicky at times. Others like this?

Any thoughts on camparative braking distances? The FZ6 versus a 2 ton car? Half, quarter?

Where do you think gas prices are headed? Always up? Anyone think we'll see shortages any time soon?

Sunday I passed the IRT. Spent half a day in class and an afternoon in the sun on a motorcycle. We practiced fast stops, serving, slow manuvers, fast turns, it was a lot of fun and educational. I managed to total about 10 miles in a parking lot. Riding to work today though, I noticed that...

Can someone please give me some thoughts on a few, simple add-ons to improve air intake breathing?

I'm out here in Portland, Oregon and am looking ahead to great riding during the summer. I'd like some help with making a list of fun rides. Ideas?

What are the prevailing opinions? Must Have. If so, what do you recommend?

Sunday I'm taking the MSF Intermediate Biker Training. I've been off of bikes for close to 20 years. A month ago, I bought the FZ6 and am a surprised how fast it is coming back, kinda like riding a bike I guess. Any words of wisdom of what to look for in Sunday. Areas I should/could ask...

What are your opinions about the fuel grade that should be run through the FZ6? Premium only?

I'm looking to make a change in grips to my FZ6. I suffer from carpal tunnel in my age and want to change to a larger diameter, softer grip to reduce that tingly, numb feeling I get after an hour or so. Also, I had a throttle side paddle grip long ago and can't seem to find anything like it...

Greetings all, I'm new to the Forum and happy to be here. I bought the bike (2007) Sunday after being away from the sport for about 20 years. Back in the day I rode off road and street. Last bike I was on was a Honda CB400F. I bought the ZF6 because it is so similar to the Honda (save...
