    Got stuck in the fog for 45 minutes this morning....

    Its only foggy about once a year in Albuquerque. I went to Jemez this morning and hit some nice(?) fog at 10,000+ elevation. Fog is worse than rain. It covers your visor totally. So I raised my visor only to have my glasses covered! It took me 45 minutes to go about 5 miles. Beautiful country...

    FZ6 To FZ6R??......Thinking about it

    After 5600 miles I can't stand the off/on throttle issue. No, I'm not a professional but I can ride corners and twisty's, etc. with some decent moves. I can afford to trade down? to a FZ6R. Has anybody here really ridden one for an extended time? My FZ6 is plenty fast enough for me so it's not...

    My dirty FZ6 and some pretty pictures....

    I took a ride to Jemez this AM. It had just poured down rain and I got a little wet and the bike got really dirty. The rear fender is too short to actually act like a fender!! I was bothered by it till I got back to civilization and washed it right away! The dirtiest it's been in 13 months. lol.

    Still a sissy above 8,000 RPM's

    I'm averaging much higher rpm's but it still seems like I get a lot of torque and speed at lower rpm's. By the time I get up there in 2nd or 3rd I'm way over the speed limit! And I still think it sounds "Hurtful" above 8,000!! I know it will do it but I'm old school. I know this has been...

    New 27" iMac anybody?

    Now I'll admit that Aries is a "spir of the moment" sign. When I got home yesterday and say these new 27" iMacs it took about 6 beers or so till I was on the phone to Apple!!!!! lol. Should have it Saturday!! Will sell my 17 month old 20" iMac at work I suppose.

    Moose Racing Handguards......

    I searched already for these and couldn't find anything. Before I open the package can someone enlighten me as to whether these will fit? The brackets are 4.5" long so I think I can mount them INSIDE the clutch and master cyl. I don't want to move them. Any help would be appreciated.

    My windscreen "lip" update.

    A few people wanted to updates. This is still a work in progress. It helps A LOT when cold. It was 49 this morn. and 45 yest. and I was warm!! I can lift my head 3/4" to get a full face of air. Wind noise is reduced 80% unless it's a crosswind like today. Nice to be able to hear the engine purr...

    In town 2nd and 3rd gear speeds.

    I know I've kind of asked this before but is it OK to run high RPM's in 2nd? It always seems like its harder on the engine at 5000 in 2nd than it does in 3rd or 4th at the same RPM's. I think it's because of the engine braking while de-accellerating(sp) that makes your brain think OMG I'm...

    Yamaha V Star Silverado - anybody have one?...

    Was wondering if anybody has any experience with a V-star. From what I've read it's a LOT LESS POWER than a FZ6. But people say it will go on the hi-way at 75 mph all day? That's kinda what I want for a 5 hour ride.

    Laugh at my handwarmers!!! .... They Work!

    I ordered some nice Cortech leather winter gloves from the Dealer but when they arrived they were way too small! So I ordered another style in an XXXL and until they come in I had to do something on these cool weekend mornings. So I was looking around at the Sportsmans Warehouse on Sat. and...
