Ok, I went into the bank to see if i could stop making payments on my totaled bike while the insurance company sorted everything out (and I can't) and here is what i found out about gap insurance. My insurance company is going to cover about $6000 for the depreciated value of my 2008 FZ6. I...

Oh my gosh, now i'm scarred. I'm the kid that just totaled my FZ6. My primary insurance company just today came out to take pictures, and I received my claims packet in the mail yesterday. I am really depending on my gap insurance to cover the, well, gap between what I owe and what it (the...

I don't like dirt bikes. I've riden them some, and their just not for me. Same thing with 4-wheelers. My dad got got us kids a nice 4-wheeler when i was 17. Never really got into it like my Jeeps. I think its time I give it a rest. Seriously, I don't think I would enjoy riding the same...

i don't know who's fault it was really. nobody was cited. The man in the pickup was allowed to leave. It wasn't written up as speeding, just that I lost control of a vehicle which caused an estimated $8000 damage to said vehicle. So I guess insurance will see it as my fault. As for whose...

Slow down, got it:thumbup: I actually figured that one out myself. I know I did a lot of stuff wrong, and that I would probably get reamed for openly saying it, but it is what it is. Oh yeah, I'm 22 years old (someone asked) I'm trying to keep a positive outlook on this. I know how easy it...

OK, maybe I should have been more specific. I guess I do ride hard and stupid sometimes. This is my first bike ever. The first lowside was with about 1000 miles on the odo. I was riding way over my head, I just didn't know it and slipped out making a right hand turn. Then i dropped it doing...

Well it happened. About five months into this motorcycle thing, and I wreck my bike, bad, not six miles from my house. Long story short, I crested a hill to find a truck almost broadside in the road. One emergency stop later and I find myself with 30 feet of rash on my riding gear (thank God...

Funny guys...

Florida has not had inspection for bikes or passenger cars since 82' IIRC. A deputy will sometimes come out to your house to verify a very old vehicle when you try to register it at the DMV though. And I lost my owners manual for the bike the very first day i had it. I trailered the bike...

Wow. thanks for all the replies. Lets see: I buy gas at different times in the day, but my commute is always the same so I always buy gas the same times on the same days. I buy from different stations, all of which have at least 10% ethanol. 87 octane. Depending on what day it is, I am...

For fuel mileage: I filled the tank completely, I mean as much as it would hold and hit the trip button. Next time I stopped for fuel, this is what i got; 18 mi. on the F-trip, 163.4 miles on the trip meter. As far as i know the trip meter continues to count even when the F-trip comes on...

OK thanks guys. Just out of curiosity, how hard can the front end come down before I start to tear stuff up.

I thought you guys said an FZ6 wouldn't power wheelie in first gear. I scarred the crap out of myself! Thought I would share.
