    Hard Cornering - Leaning while riding fast.

    Ok, I just revised that book and it is cheap, so I will buy it with no further questions. I just go fast on straight roads by now, cause I'm a noob, you are right. It's just that I am very excited about riding a bike... so I will go slow, for my own safety... asking around will not get me hurt...

    Hard Cornering - Leaning while riding fast.

    While riding fast on corners, I just get invaded by the thinking that "anything can go wrong"... but anyway I just keep the hand on the throttle with a steady pulse and smooth riding... What do you think it would be an "indicator" for safe fast cornering on these conditions: 1.-Sunny day...

    Changing Gears - Based on RPMs

    Hum, so that's why some people wear them... I have noticed that in heavy traffic (I live in Mexico City :p) I can't hear even what I am thinking because of buses and cars, and all the honking and stuff... So yes! I will try that in the city. Feeling the bike is better than looking down @ the...

For example... you are in the highway, and get to an endless path with no curves... and try to hold her @ 13k revs for a while... just to feel how 240 kms/hr is like... what would be an indicator that you should...

    Changing Gears - Based on RPMs

    Well, try identifying a path on your route without lights... I have the same trouble... Imagine a FZ6 sitting among red lights, cars, buses, and everything you can imagine would slow me down. I can only rev the bike properly on weekends on a toll-highway... So get used to going slow between...

    Changing Gears - Based on RPMs

    Yes, I have done the first service already. I was adviced to wait for the 2nd service though... so I can juice the motor out. HAHA believe me that "rev the piss out of it" is the best advise I have ever got regarding a bike :D I'll follow that man! So, BIGDOG... you are telling me that I...

    Changing Gears - Based on RPMs

    Hello, I am just getting used to my FZ6 600cc '07 and I feel so comfortable with it's "ride-smoothness" and all the bike in general but, What would be a good range of RPMs when shifting gears? Right now I am doing changes at 5k RPMs at the most, for 1~6 gears. I noticed that less revs...
