Hi guys, I just thought I'd introduce a thread that is on the other sister sites (Fz1 and Fz6). It is called The Riding Game. Basically it's a scavenger hunt with your bike. A challenge will be issued and then you need to ride your bike to get a photograph of the bike and the objective. The...

Hi guys, Over on the Fz6 site they have a thread that is constantly going where people post their funny pictures, videos, jokes, etc. I had to bring a picture over to you guys since there are so many Aussie's on this forum. Keep the thread alive by posting your funny pics as well.

Hi all, I thought I'd start a thread for the Arizona guys to hopefully all subscribe to. That way if you're going for a ride, try to post it a day or two or more in advance and then we all would get notified, a lot easier than a bunch of PM's. Please post the following info: Date & Estimated...

Hi guys, I just wanted to put a thank you out to all the MSF instructors on here. The skills you teach saved me again today. As most of you know I've put 2 bikes down within 2 months as a new rider. The skills I learned in the MSF class definitely saved my life in the first crash and the...

Hi all, Myself and David323 are looking to plan a ride on 1/27 from either Mesa (power road & Thomas) up Bush Highway, then up to Payson or from Fountain Hills (Shea blvd and 87) to Payson. Then from Payson to Strawberry to Camp Verde and then back down to phoenix. I think total route is right...

WTB 2011-2012 front brake master cylinder. I recently got my Fz8 clutch perch and mirror (thank you Shock) setup on my bike and love having a functioning mirror again. I think I would like to add the Master Clylinder to the mix and mount the right side mirror as well. I know that I can...

I was taking my usual route this morning on the freeways to work. At one on ramp between the 101 south and 60 west there is a portion where it's 2 lanes, the right goes off to a surface road and the left goes onto the 60west. A construction style F150 was in the left lane, merged in front of me...

Hi guys, I am looking at purchasing some new levers. I am planning on going with a Shorty lever set as I find with the amazing amount of power in the Fz1 I want to keep a couple of fingers on the handlebars when shifting and I ride a lot of city commuting so I end up covering the brake a lot...

Wanted Fz8 stock mirrors. I have an Fz1 Gen II that I'm making naked. Also, if anyone has their stock Fz8 headlight setup I'd be interested in that as well.

So, after getting a little tired off all the gun control talk, surviving 12/21/2012 and dreaming about getting back on 2 wheels I thoght a fun thread would be a place for people to post their planned/dreamt of epic rides for 2013. The days are getting longer, except you blokes down under...

Hi, Another forum member was thinking about repairing a tire on his bike. I personally don't think I ever would for fear of it blowing and going down in a bad way. So, this begs the question have you had a tire blow on your motorcycle and how did you manage the situation?

Hi all, I am looking to get a action camcorder. I purchased a GoPro Hero2 Outdoor edition that immediately crapped itself with the v198 "brick" error message when it attempted to update firmware. I returned it and now want to get something that will be reliable, provide good video for potential...

Hello all, I got to your forum from a link on my current forum the Fz6 community. I have a 2008 Fz6 that I unfortunately crashed this weekend. I am physically alright but the bike will most likely get totalled. The dealership/shop I go to has a brand new 2012 Fz8 in the showroom that I may be...
