    Garage Door Opener

    ok I am seriously interested in how you are doing this garage door opener thing, my battery on my garage door opener goes out every 3 months, so if I can hook it up to my bike somehow, total bonus.

    Devil cans

    Well I tried drilling out the rivets, which proved to cost me 2 of my lesser drill bits and got me near nowhere. What I ended up doing was just taking a good flat blade screw driver and ended up popping the top of the rivets off, by just prying them off one side then the other, didn't take long...

    Just got over 7k RPM for the first time... WOW!

    Ok so I guess I'm kind of a pansy here, I've brought the bike to 12k once in second, but for the most part I shift around 5k until this last week after reading the forums and I've been cruising around 7k and shifting around 8k. Now it could just be my being used to cars but in 2nd I notice the...

    Riding with Carpal Tunnel...

    I have carpal tunnel from 10 keying at work but it never bothers me on the bike-ust finished a 1200 mile ride in 16ish hour last night, I do find that I constantly readjust my grip, you might want to look at throttle rockers though, that should help at the least.

    Fender Eliminator Kit

    I ended up making my own, it was easy as could be, think parts cost me like 8 bucks, then I bought a nice set of LED turn signals and plate light ended up spending $58.97 in total. Thought about spray painting it black but the silver of the sheet metal matched my devil exhaust pipe ends very...

    Fender Eliminator Kit

    well I don't want to use my stock signals its just that if I'm spending that kinda money they better have 3 wires or come with relays. I'll probably end up just building my own, I have a devil exhaust so the mounting bracket is a bit different anyway. Only way I can get everything I want.

    Fender Eliminator Kit

    yeah thats the thing I'm not willing to spend 130 bucks on a cut out $3 sheet of aluminum and 2 $15 turn signals that are probably only 2 wire and wouldn't blink properly so I'd have to spend another 30 on relays, and what looks like a door hinge. Just way over priced for what it is.

    Fender Eliminator Kit

    I'm also looking for a FE kit or mod. I tend to be pretty handy if anyone has a link to a good looking diy one, that or a good kit, I can't justify spending 60 bucks on a piece of 2 dollar aluminum. Also I notice that all these kits that have lights, which I like because the stock lights are...

    F the Police!!!!

    What I love to do whenever I have anyone on my ass, especially cops, I'll slow down to 15 if I'm not on a highway or 45 if I'm on the highway, speed minimum in my state. And let them get pissed and honk their horn. Never had a cop pull me over for it yet but I'm waiting. Had a cop pull me...

    Devil exhaust cans?

    Alright got them on, took me and a friend about an hour and a half, mainly because we were dumb @$$es. Its easy to put on, just remember to take off that screw under the seat that says do not remove while exhaust is still hot, or something like that and under that plate is 2 screws that hold...

    Have saddlebags I could borrow? Orlando

    Thought I would try on the off chance. I'm taking a trip here in a couple weeks from Orlando to Missouri and was hoping that someone in the Orlando area might have some saddle bags that would fit an FZ6 that I might be able to borrow for about a week. Would just rather not spend $80-$140 on...

    Iron Butt: Ride and Prep!

    Are the standard GPS units voice navigation things loud enough to even hear over the roar of my beautiful bike, or would I have to have one with a headphone jack and have headphones on. Not so sure about having headphones on while riding, cops don't like bikers real well as it is in general, I...

    Iron Butt: Ride and Prep!

    Well I'm looking at doing a long ride, about 1130 miles, from Orlando to Columbia,MO. A ride I've done numberous times in a car, so I have some inkling of the strain it puts on the body. I'm debating with myself if the frequent stops to fill up wouldn't make things easier on the old arse, than...
