    Real World MPG's.

    Also, don't forget, this is a naked bike, not a fully faired, low-geared touring bike.

    Question about running no muffler

    It would only work really well for an open exhaust like that if you had some kind of forced induction, such as turbocharger or supercharger. My Saab runs better with less of the exhaust restriction, but then again, it's a bit more expensive to mod than the bike. Just get a good pipe. A ticket...

    Tail of the Dragon - 5/25/14

    Have you guys had the opportunity to ride in the Ozark region of Missouri and Arkansas? There are some nice places to go for a jaunt, and especially around the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, when I used to deliver in the area, Christ Almighty was it a sphincter puckerer!

    Cruising rpm in city?

    It really depends for me. My town isn't exactly big, but normally I try to keep between 3-4K rpm, maybe a little higher, but for cruising and overtaking, the bike still has more than enough grunt to make it work.

    Exhaust proposals?

    New Rider in SW Missouri

    Hello everyone! I just purchased my 2013 FZ8, brand new off the showroom floor with 0.3 miles on the odometer. I haven't ridden regularly in about 8 years, but thankfully that has come to an end. I'm so happy to be back in the saddle. Do we have anyone else here in that part of the state, or...
