    Ridng pants your thoughts

    To my fellow FZ6R riders - I was (un)fortunate enough to be sent to Tucson for work this weekend. SO MANY riders with just helmets and nothing else. (almost broke my neck staring at a sexy female rider in a tank top and shorts) I can kinda see why, it's so DAMN HOT here. I give it up to you...

    Might pick up an 09 R6 and R1 just for kicks

    You're not the only one looking at the R6. Although, I am liking the FZ1 too!

    Total Control book: By Lee Parks (your input)

    I'm a new rider, so I bought this after Reg Pridmore's book. I found it more useful that Pridmore's. I try to pick it up at least once a week to see if I can improve on my skills. The cornering section has been helpful for me. I'll try to catch one of his clinics when he offers it for my...

    09 Good Price?

    I got my FZ6R for $6100, that's not including any fees. I got screwed with the freight and handling fees and I told this to the a second dealer that serviced my bike. He told me that he would've matched that and the handling fees would have been considerably less. I imagine that for the FZ6...

    stupid harleys

    In all seriousness, minus the spelling and stereotypes, I do want to know if there's "etiquette" when passing a group of slow Harleys/cruisers. I'm a new rider and would like to know if I do anything wrong when on the road. My gut tells me that as long as I'm safe when passing, it's all good...
