I had an interesting traffic situation. I was exiting a corner gas station and needed to make an immediate left at the intersection, so I drove mostly perpendicular through stopped traffic and made it to the left hand turn lane. There was perfect visibility all the cars were stopped. Midway...
What do we think of this? I suppose anyone burned by Skully might be skittish and rightly so. The individuals involved include former employees of Foxconn, Intel, and Garmin, so at least they aren't completely from left-field. Not sure I need the HUD, but I'm aware that in traffic, front/rear...
Hi, the FZ6 engine stops at the traffic light quite often. I try to change / set idle speed. Unfortynately it helps shortly. the engine speed changes themselves - faster - slower
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...
When do you people shift up say during a gentle drive in city traffic.
I switch gears up at no less than 3000 rpm when there's no particular need for quick acceleration. Afterwards cruise at just above 3000 rpm, usually > 3100 rpm.
Heya guys. Been having an issue now for a little while in which my idle is periodically rough for seemingly no reason, the bike is having a harder and harder time starting, and finally - it's died on me twice in the last two days, after slow bouts in traffic. Once it's running and I'm moving...
Some idiot U-Turned out of traffic on me a few months back (7th December to be precise) and wrote off my other bike, injuring me (not too badly but enough I still feel it a few months later) and denying it. We’ll be taking this one to court I expect, me and the solicitors, for personal injury...
Finally California is adding its lane splitting rule on their book.
California Could Finally Put A Lane-Splitting Law On The Books
It's time for other states to change and adopt lane splitting.
My first experience yesterday:
Usually I search for houses near to my work, like less than a mile, so...
My Wife and I rode through Skyline Drive yesterday. Beautiful day out on the bikes! Very little traffic on the Skyway. Just a little rain, but not too much.
A new bike season is starting for many of us, and i'd like to remind everyone that it's a new bike season for cagers as well. They are not used to seeing bikes in traffic yet, so take care and stay safe!
I think I may have posted this vid before, but if I haven't - here is a reminder to take...
I was traveling along, going to the liquor store for some necessities. I got caught in a little bit of traffic. One of these guys right in front of my is in a diesel Chevy pickup. The whole time traffic is slowed he thinks its funny to keep slowing down and goosing the thing causing thick black...

Yesterday on my way home while driving in stop and go traffic, the check engine light came on while driving around 50km/h. Not just flassing but solid. I slowed down and it went out. Speed up to 50 or more and the CHL came back on. Stayed off while at standstill at trafic...
