Looks interesting, well except the price. Love the fact websites are claiming its 'competitively' priced... Against what? Certainly not the Japanese mid size fighters that Ducatinewstoday.com claims people will be switching from, unless they expect to see some huge rush of people from the...

Anyone been in an accident on your motorcycle in which your insurance company has been involved, and willing to answer a few questions? Sorry to seem somewhat insensitive, just trying to get the perspective of people who have actually been involved in an accident and the behaviour of the...

Anyone had this kind of (accident) experience? Has anyone had an accident where the other person has been at fault, and asked to fix up matters outside of insurance, only to back out, or refuse to pay? I'm writing an article for my journalism course that I'm trying to get published, and some...

Has anyone bought these or done business with the company? Brake Disc Rear Yamaha Fazer FZ1 FZ6 MT-03 MT03 | eBay Claim to be Australian, and also have some bar end mirrors that look interesting.

Thought everyone here might appreciate something I saw on the weekend at the Barry Sheene Festival of Speed, went with my Dad to take some photos and support the Laverda racing team (OzLaverda). My photography skills were tested to their limits (not that thats hard) but I managed to get a few...

So today I had a traffic incident. I was literally 20m from my carport, at an intersection waiting for a break in the traffic behind one other car, and there was probably a good half metre gap between us. The driver decided suddenly that she was too far into the intersection, and reversed...

Hey all, been a while since I started a thread (they are normally full of trajedy when I do anyway) but I had to stop lurking and put this up in the hopes someone might have a bit of advice etc! So I was rushing to work over the weekend and filtered through to the front of a set of lights and...

well i am currently posting from my nokia e71 from chatswood as i got to the cinema to find i had a flat tyre and after the movie discovered why! Giant big screw in the rear Awaiting reinforcements with a hand pump to see if it will hold pressure with one rider, as i had a pillion on way...

Well today was the CTP Protest outside parliament house in Sydney, and while I don't have much experience with this kind of thing there was definately a pretty good turnup!!!! Not everyone may be aware but the NSW Labor Govt recently green lighted increases of up to 105% in the cost of CTP...

Well I had the wonderful experience of a new and exciting modification for my....... Cat. It managed to get into a fight and ended up with an infected wound on its head. Took it to the Vet and the $80 checkup consultation turned into $550 worth of surgery, with two more visits to get the...

So I thought I would check here before I looked on the greater forums since I'm not sure about differences between our bikes and those in the US (assuming they are pretty similar tho, if not the same). Basically I think the closest thing to my current exhaust and soon to be setup would be...

Hey all was just reading the latest Cycle Torque, and noticed alot of talk about the CTP price hikes in NSW, which particularly seem to be aimed at discriminating against learner riders, and just generally robbing motorcycle riders. Riders Against Bureaucracy is the website of an action group...

So I put my pazzo's on and have been playing around with the clutch adjustment at the handlebar. (the screw thingy - not the lever tab) The actual reach on them now is absolutely amazing and great, but the problem I'm having is I don't think there is the correct tension in the cable and its...

I know a few other members of the forum have gotten Pazzos for their bike, particularly since bikegearwarehouse has had them for $209 with free delivery and I finally decided to stop procrastinating and buy them!!!! There was quite a few similar looking items on Ebay from the 55-75$ mark...

Had a bit of a close call on the way home from work this evening, got to the lights before my street as they turned orange and gave the bike a bit of gas, then started tapping the brakes to slow down for the next set of lights I was turning right at. The back wheel locked up and just refused to...

So I got my FZ6 in for its 10k service (did the 5k one myself since it was reasonably simple) and while some things seem much better I've found a few issues. The first is that occasionally it doesn't want to change gears since the service. This has only happened a few times however. The...

Saw this and thought you guys might appreciate it: Just leaves you wondering how they fit them to bikes x.x:eek:

Well I don't know if I mentioned but over the weekend I went to visit my grandparents who live near Inverill, which was having its yearly Classic/Restored bike rally. Its always an interesting event with lots of old codgers on equally old bikes, which despite not being my cup of tea has really...

Just got home from work, and tried to get into the garage and some doofus had parked their car smack bang in the middle of the driveway stopping anyone getting in without going over the gutter. Anyway had to stop, get off, open the gates, and then get back on and get the back wheel over the...
