Pulled the trigger about a week ago and bought my wife a motorcycle. Got a phenomenal deal on a used 2007 Yamaha V-Star 650 Custom, with a little over 13,000kms on it. It has a Kuryakyn backrest, engine guard, highway pegs and mirrors. Also, a K&N air filter, new Bridgestone Exedra Max rubber...

I had a strange day on Saturday. My wife and I decided to go for a motorcycle ride, with her riding pillion. We rode out to a large box store about 30 mins away, and did some browsing. On our way back (same route) I noticed a grey Ford Taurus flying up behind me. I use the word flying...

Here is a posting of 10 amazing, twisty, breathtaking roads that would be awesome to ride on the Fizzer... or any other bike for that matter! :D What do you all think? Top 10 best roads to drive I think that #6 (the Transfagarasan Highway in Romania) would be awesome!

Found this article this morning, and though it was pretty cool, even though I don't consider a Goldwing to be a 'real' motorcycle :spank: I wonder how long before this becomes more mainstream, and jumps to other manufacturers and frame styles? Honda Worldwide | Motorcycle Picture Book |...

Just bought the swingarm from an S2 that was professionally bead-blasted and primed to a flat gray. Have found the proper paint code to have it re-painted Yamaha Silver to match the 04-06 models [ColorRite Yamaha 0895 Silver #8 (S8) Frame Color]. My question is, how much paint do I need in...

I purchased a 2007 swingarm assembly from Seth. He had had it professionally sandblasted then primed, and was including all new hardware (bearings, etc.). I received the swingarm exactly as described, and will be installing it over this winter. The packaging for shipping was bombproof. There...

Was in to my local MC shop today picking up a MotionPro chain alignment tool. On the way across the showroom floor I saw this: It's an '07, apparently brand new Benelli TNT Cafe Racer. Wow! What a sleek looking bike. I did a double take. Started sweating in all my gear because I was...

I'm looking at getting a better touring windscreen. I've read a tonne on this subject here and elsewhere, from chopping mods, to venting mods, to the Laminar lip, and different height/rake angles on screens. I like the esthetics of the stock screen and height. However, on the S1 I own large...

I'm not a Vancouver Canucks fan, but I did jump on the bandwagon when they became the last Canadian team in the playoffs, hoping to see the cup come North. Obviously, after Boston's 4-0 thrashing of the heavily favoured hometown team, that didn't happen. Here are some pics of how the few can...

While recently washing the bike after ~50+ days of straight rain and daily commuting, I noticed what appears to be some odd chain wear patterns on the back of my rear sprocket (ie. side opposite the swing-arm). Does this seem normal? The chain is within proper specs in terms of adjustments...

Well, I just sold my house here in Halifax and am being transferred to Ontario. Going to be living in the Borden/Barrie area for the next ~3yrs. Will miss the east coast roads, but not the weather. Looking forward to some long, hot summers in the southern part of Ontario, and some good rides...

Hey guys, I just finished installing the Givi e41 sidecases on my Fizzer using the Givi sidecase mounts. This requires a relocation of the stock turn signals via a bracket provided by Givi. I had to make a jumper wire to lengthen the stock signal wires in order to reach the disconnect in the...

This is the definition of stupidity... Amazing he's still alive. YouTube - Yamaha R6 incidente a 257Km/h And he's only wearing jeans!!!

MANswers answers the question on every male bikers mind. :D Just how the hell DO you have sex on a motorcycle?? Warning - if you attempt anything seen in this video, your particular gene pool is about to be super-chlorinated... with asphalt! :spank: Motorcycle Sex | Free Video Clips | SPIKE

I know this has been done before, but I pushed the bike the furthest into the reserve I've gone yet, and then almost choked on the price to refuel... :rant: This is my second tank filled with Supreme (91 octane). I always run two tanks of the 'good (read: expensive) stuff' through...

Just bought a set of Givi e41 side cases. They're shipping from Calgary, so I should have them in about a week. Anyone know if the SW-Motech Quick-Lock Sidecarrier from TwistedThrottle (found here) will work with the Givi FZ351 topcase rack? And/or with a Leo Vince exhaust and FAZR6 FE Kit?? :D

I have a ~4(ish) year old Teknic Textile jacket for sale. I believe it is an earlier version of the Teknic Hurricane jacket (but I'm not 100% sure). The jacket is in good condition. It has one defect - the bottom snap that secures the zipper flap has broken (although the flap is still held by...

I have an OEM Yamaha semi-rigid tail bag for sale. Looking for $50.00 + shipping. Bag is in great condition, just slightly sun-faded from use. Thanks for looking.

This is a video comparison of a 2005 Yamaha FZ6 stock horn, and a STEBEL Nautilus Airhorn. The STEBEL is mounted in the same location Boneman had his (Boneman's FZ6 Site - STEBEL Nautilus Horn), in the left dash/fairing. YouTube - 2005 Yamaha FZ6 stock horn vs. STEBEL Nautilus Airhorn
