    New Bike Fever: The fever breaks

    With all the upgrading and talk of upgrading going on around here, I finally got serious about investigating a new bike. The most likely upgrade for me would be a VFR mostly becasue it fits me better than the FZ1. Actually, my FZ6 with its customized-for-my-butt seat fits me better than the...

    Clear altrernative signals are on

    The unit consists of the lens and housing plus a change to chrome bulbs that light up amber. Compare fronts (try covering one side then the other to get the idea). Stock still glows a bit brighter, but CA is very adequate. Also before and after shots on rears. Installation is a sinch, taking...

    JMV Concept fairing from bike-design.com?

    Anybody order the lower fairing from bike-design.com? It's the only company (other than Yami Canada) I can find that fits an '07 model. Looks pretty good in the photo (better than OEM, IMHO), but one little photo isn't much to base a $700 purchase on...

    Oops - Waived at a cop

    I'm a pretty consistent waiver to other sport bikes, and a couple of times I have come pretty close to waiving at a motor cop. Well, yesterday went beyond close. I didn't realize he was an Orange County Sherriff until it was too late. Fortunately, it was during commuting hours and I was...
