    F/S: Rizoma Dynamic Mirror Set

    Somebody just stole my left mirror because you can just spin it off. When these mirrors mount does it require an Allan key or something that would make it more difficult to take off

    Do you think the pefect naked would have a FZ09 motor and the FZ8 chassis?

    The 8 is extinct, much like the Black Rhino. I seriously doubt that Yamaha will resurrect it. I do hope they put the 847cc triple in a Tenere package like they have overseas. That would be a kick ass dual sport.

    New tires!

    I went through 2 Pilot Power 3 rears (one went for 4,000, then another rear for 6,000), and one front (10,000). I thought they were fantastic for the first 2000-3000 miles, then they started to feel like they were getting a little slick (coincided with the rubber melting heat of mid summer AZ...

    this is exactly why i will not even attempt stunting

    They'll probably have to plate and screw that bad boy from the look. At least he'll be able to sing along to David Guetta's song Titanium and not be lying (kinda). Hope he heals up fast. Tell him to up his Vitamin C to 1-3,000 mg of Vitamin C per day and get a bone support formula like...

    Gift ideas for your bike.... go!

    Levers, you can get JPR levers for $130 for the set and get the color scheme you want (black and gold clicker) (FYI you can search Fz1 Gen II levers because they are the same. I have Fz8 clutch perch and master cylinder on my Fz1. JPR are a good deal $130 JPR Roll N Click Shorty Brake and...

    Sport-Touring tires: Any recommendations?

    I've read the same thing and heard the same thing. However after having a set of both a PR2 and PR3 I would give the nod to the PR3 hands down. I may have just had an old set of PR2's (or does it make a difference that I got the bike from up north and may have had a 'cold' set of PR2's, when...

    Sport-Touring tires: Any recommendations?

    Pilot Road 3's: I have about 2,500 miles on them and really like them so far. The tire has plenty of grip for sport riding, is hardly showing any wear from commuting about 300-400 miles a week. I would recommend these for a good commuting tire that you can still go have fun on. Pilot Power...

    High Speed Chase stories??

    They do the same thing here to entrap drivers/riders for higher dollar tickets. I've heard of them getting up next to people and boxing them in, forcing them to make illegal lane changes around snow birds. They entice people to race them (or mainly you are trying to get away from what seems...

    High Speed Chase stories??

    Glad you're doing better Cambo. Secondly thanks for the warning about the Triple Steak Stack. I'm enjoying Toxic Hell at the moment but I keep it simple with burrito/taco supremes. The Cinnabon Delights are truly delightful for a temporary blast of sugar and fat that causes the immediate...

    FZ8 and FZ-09

    If I was looking in the sub-1,000 middle weight department, I would lean toward the Fz-09 based on the numbers and the urban assault riding I do (no, I don't ride aggressively, just proactively). However after sitting on it, I would say that the seat is not that comfortable because it seems to...

    Stupid FN Squids!

    CBR1000RR or CB1000R. Either way, they both would probably be faster than an Fz8 with the same rider

    Stupid FN Squids!

    Still roughly 4-6 times the cost of an Fz1

    Stupid FN Squids!

    Or all of these other cars. I think maybe the point is for under $100k the motorcycles are faster Top Fastest Cars| Top Ten Slowest Cars in the World | Which Country makes the best Fast Cars?
