    Panning on painting the PowerBronze belly pan.

    Ya, it is a little less slick that some of the other pans out there (I would love to get the Yamaha one). But like I said, I need to compromise since I'm living off of loans. (ie. I'm paying my bike loan off with my student loans) How's that for financially stable.

    Panning on painting the PowerBronze belly pan.

    It's right on the PowerBronze site. It's $70 plus $22 for shipping to the states. I don't know why its so cheap, but it looks pretty straight forward. http://www.powerbronze.co.uk/Shop/Product.aspx?PROD_ID=900926&MC_ID=818263

    Panning on painting the PowerBronze belly pan.

    I was just going to get the paint in spray cans, but I actually have access to a brand new auto paint sprayer. Would the sprayer work out better that the spray cans.

    Panning on painting the PowerBronze belly pan.

    So, since I'm a destitute med student and don't have a couple hundred dollars to drop on a top quality belly pan I've come up w/ the following. I want to order the black w/ silver mesh PowerBronze pan which is only $90 with shipping . Since I want it to be Cobalt Blue, I was going to get the...

    Any one give Pig Spotters Mirrors a try?

    Ya. I guess I was thinking what most of you are. They would look pretty wicked, but not worth the reduction in visiblity. They actually advertise a 75-80% reduction so I can imagine what it really is. Thanks for the replys.

    Any one give Pig Spotters Mirrors a try?

    Hey all, I've just recently come out of my winter hybernation and am getting ready to dust off my baby. Been thinking of some mods to try, and I must say IMHO, the most unattractive aspect of the FZ6 are the mirrors. I would love to get my hands on mirrors that is are little sleeker and...

    Anybody else on the forum taking Grad classes?

    Hey small world. Well we've got our big cardio final on Friday. Your class probably had Dr. Hogan too. Dr. Heffner did a bunch of path this block as well. What fellowship are you going into? What did you do for residency?

    Front sprocket vs. rear sprocket change?

    The 520 chain is lighter. Thus will result in less rotational mass? ( I think that the term, or something like it. I'm a biologist, not a physicist.) Basically its a lighter chain and will work decrease the mass that has to travel around the sprocket. In short, it will work to give you more...

    Front sprocket vs. rear sprocket change?

    I do know that a speedohealer is a must after a sprocket change, Speedo will read much higher than actual and the odometer will also begin to count miles that were never ridden.

    Are integrated tails and flushes legal?

    So i called 2 of the major cycle dealerships in the area and spoke to the service guys that are responsible for inspections. Both said that technically integrated tails are not for road use, but they usually just let it slide. One guy said that he will occasionally fail the bike if the front...

    Easy way to get A-hole pedestrians out of your way.

    Thats pretty scary. Whenever I'm stopped in a not-so-nice neighborhood, which happens fairly often in Buffalo, I realize how exposed I really am. It wouldn't take much to get me off my bike. I'm 5'9'' 175lbs. I'm sure I would put up a fight, but if someone just grabbed me from behind, while...

    Easy way to get A-hole pedestrians out of your way.

    I was on Amherst St. crossing Elmwood, heading toward Wegmans.

    Easy way to get A-hole pedestrians out of your way.

    So I was cruising around the city to unwind after a hard day of studying on Saturday (med student @ U of Buffalo with cardiology final this Friday). Was stopped at a red light at a fairly high traffic intersection (but it was about 11 PM so it wasn't that crowded) and was first in line to go...
