Saturday 2018-06-02 and the goal is oil change on the Fizzer. Throw the tank bag on and hit one store for a Wix filter and plan to hit another for the oil (I want what I want). Any who, somehow I head to the rising sun which leads me 90mi to all of this...
Yes, this is the view...
A friend and I are planning to throw the bikes in the back of one of our pickups and drive down to the Smokey Mountains in a little over a month. Right now we have planned to do the Tail of the Dragon/ Cherohala Skyway Loop and The Blue Ridge Parkway Loop. We have one more free day to fill...
Went on a 1500 mile 3 day trip to N. Cal. Hwy 36 between Red Bluff and Fortuna Ca its one of the top rated, if not #1 motorcycling road in the west. It did not disappoint, it had huge dips in the road where you can get air born if you're not careful, high speed sweepers, and real tight turns...
I may not be a cop, but I can sure ride like one. The local Sheriff's Motors Unit offered an advanced Motor's class to us civilians. One day, 8 hours, mostly riding around a bunch of cones. The same patterns and dimensions that the officers must get certified in order for them to ride...
I'm curious to see the distribution of what people get with their bikes. It seems like my mpg is lower than most of the anecdotes I see reported here. I typically get 130-135 miles by the time I hit the reserve, which ends up being 4 gallons, for ~33 mpg (about 7.2 L/100km for people from...
I learned to expect the unexpected at any time and in any spot in a group. Some things you just can't help so make sure you can control it.
Hit and run

Hey all,
I was wondering if you folks knew any tricks to removing the front axle. I found a few sockets that lock together and lock in there pretty good, but I can torque it enough to remove it. So far I have busted two socket extensions with a long wrench trying to get this off. I have tried...
The Subie goes into the shoulder and raises very fine silt. What happens after, that many may not pick up on, but we as riders will see right away is the bike that looses the rear for a short and recovers with out incident. You can see the rider perplexed by what he slid on. I know this first...

Looks like they may have hit a slick covering of transmission fluid or coolant. Never the less he does the best he can with the situation and holds on to the girl...
LiveLeak.com - Biker Saves Girlfriend Getting Run Over
Thought I bought the retrofit kit last November, I didn't get around to doing anything with it until now. Our own forum member, FIZZER6, pulled the housing apart, painted the shrouds and reflectors black, mounted the projectors, and sealed them back up. I put the finished product on the bike...
well its been a while since I was on 2 wheels, slight issue with a work injury. Shattered leg and all that, I have to say thanks to all the folks posting on here, seeing your pictures and videos was motivation to get through the crappy times.
If your wondering, yes it is damn good to crack a...
So I had saved up some cash for a new exhaust for the FZ6 and was going to get the Scorps. Well I went this morning to get the Oil changed in my car(2014 civic) and on my way home this girl runs the red light cuts me off where I had to slam on my brakes, and then starts trying to hit me in MY...
Bryan (Goop) contacted me about riding on Sat. but I had already said to myself that there have been too many reasons not to ride lately and I promised my self I would ride on Friday. I answered Bryan and then said to myself that he and I always ride and kick it together so I contacted him and...
Just got hit by a car.
Hit and run.
I've already replaced the headlights and front fairing with stock before.
Looking to do a naked conversion.
Starting off with the headlights.
