Shoei Quest... because they're the quietest helmet Shoei makes and it's a great looking helmet. summit

Anyone able to find out anything about the Corbin seat? I rode 2300 KM's in three days and the ONLY complaint I have is the damn seat. It's horrible and it's something I definitely want to change soon! summit

Anyone install heated grips on their bike? I know for some of you down south probably think it's crazy, but we've had a shitty summer up here in Canada and I think a set would be handy when riding through high mountain passes, at night, etc. If anyone has done this before, please share some...

Speedo, check PM's... Thx! summit

I just checked PJ's and they're 101.00 a peice... is that what you paid, or am I missing something?

The place I got mine from was Synmoto - Motorcycle Parts & Accessories They're in Richmond, BC and sell the Bi-Xenon ones for 75.00... I think that's a pretty good deal! I wouldn't recommend anything greater than a 6,000K bulb, otherwise it will be too blue. I think stock HID's (in cars) come...

I put a 6k high/low beam in mine from a company here in Vancouver. The bulb is the same, but when you switch on the high beam it pops the bulb further into the headlight housing and actually reflects the light higher. It's really neat. One thing I notice about it is road signs and anything...

Hey Everyone, Picked up my FZ8 a couple weeks ago... I've been riding it around BC for the past few weeks and I've racked up about 700 KM's on it. Love it! I've been a Harley rider for the past few years, but I needed to pick up the pace, so I bought the FZ8. I've been a fairly avid rider...

O.M.G. SEXY! I'm waiting for TechSpech to get their butts in gear and offer the FZ8 grips. I don't have the time, nor the tools to cut these out, I like how you were able to get the edges smoothed down. Your bike is lookin' good mate. Now if my LED turn signals, R&G tidy tail and grips...

Is this worth 200 bucks?

Don't use the stupid rear seat that's suggested in the FZ1 forum. I scratched the hell out of the rear fender area. Not cool at all, I could crawl into the fetal position and cry.

Nope, just the 200 dollar RIV fee and HST (5% GST at the border and 7% PST when I licenced it). I didn't pay duty (6.1%) because of NAFTA, bikes are exempt. List for the bike was $6,999US, which, on the day I bought it, was 6,797 because of our dollar being at 1.043 US. By the time it's all...

Brand new, 0 KM. I picked it up in Seattle. Best any dealer in the Lower Mainland would do was 9300 + HST.

I paid 6797 Canadian, about 8K tax in.
