  1. Tires, What Are You Going To Install This Year? 22 Mar 2015 16:49 ^^ Just means the Q3's are off the charts :) Ordered a set of Q3's just now from sportbiketrackgear.com - $235 shipped for the set and the $50 rebate this month, can't beat that with two sticks.
  2. Givi V35 Sidecases - Anyone With Pics? 12 Aug 2013 16:19 Thanks all, I appreciate the input and the pics. Decision time...
  3. Givi V35 Sidecases - Anyone With Pics? 11 Aug 2013 00:31 Just curious if anyone has a set of Givi V35's that they're using on their 6th gen? I was just reading that they're supposed to be contoured to match the OEM profile for some bikes better, but wondering if anyone has…
  4. pickup new bike.....anyone see it before 22 Aug 2012 01:17 Great grab, I was eyeballing that same one but for some reason convinced myself not to bid on it. Congrats!
  5. Arkansas in September - Reserve Your Spot NOW! Sep 21 through 23 11 Jul 2012 10:39 I spent 4 days in Harrison earlier this summer and the best way I can sum up our adventure would be that the roads are 80-90% as good as TN/NC with 10-15% of the traffic (bikes, cars or LEOs). We hit traffic one time…
  6. How old are our VFR owners? 7 May 2012 11:04 Will be 34 this coming Wednesday, bought my first bike in 4th grade when a friend and I saved our lunch money for an entire school year to buy an old busted dirt bike from his neighbor. Neither of our parents knew and…
  7. Solo Rack - Thanks KanadianKen 2 Mar 2012 00:06 I'm caving to the pressure and posting a crapphone pic, try not to hate on me too much :musik20: I'll get better ones when I can wrench the camera away from my wife. [image: post-20693-0-13375000-1330646762.jpg]
  8. Custom Vinyl Graphics? 1 Mar 2012 23:52 Hey all, I was thinking that I saw some time ago that someone knew of a good place to get some custom vinyl graphics made up. If anyone could point me in the direction of who that might be and how to contact them I…
  9. Solo Rack - Thanks KanadianKen 1 Mar 2012 02:45 Just got my 6th gen solo rack in the mail the other day and mounted it up. I can't recommend it enough to those that are looking for a top case rack. KanadianKen is a top notch guy and he delivers a top quality product,…
  10. Make it RAWR for less than $100 9 Feb 2012 02:27 That sounds really nice...and I'd bet its downright wicked when you reach above 6k :musik20: . Coming from someone that can't weld at all, they look quite good :) If you're ever interested in doing the project over, I…
  11. Then and Now Images 8 Feb 2012 03:18 These are beautiful and brutally painful! I had the pleasure of my dad being stationed at Fort Carson as a kid and have been trying to drag my wife back out there ever since...unfortunately she's not having any part of…
  12. I was hit in the neck by a bird. 6 Jan 2012 15:09 Years ago my dad and I were riding through some really nice open sweepers near his house at a rather inflated pace and he took what we call a turkey vulcher (not sure if that's "official" or not) on the left shoulder as…
  13. Front End Shake 13 Dec 2011 19:58 [image: View Post]SEBSPEED, on 21 July 2010 - 02:27 PM, said: - How's the balance of your front tire? (if evenly worn with high mileage, the balance could be off, or you could have lost a weight) :+1: I had the same…
  14. Bullsh***er's at work....post your snappy retorts. 9 Dec 2011 12:21 We have a couple of these clowns at our work, they're related and one rides a 'busa and the other a GSXR-1000. Tires are square and the strips are almost thicker than the worn centers but they like to talk their game…
  15. Member Down and in ICU 30 Nov 2011 03:19 Our thoughts and prayers are with Mike and his family.
  16. TT3D: Closer to the Edge Movie 21 Nov 2011 17:37 Between a computer screen and not at all I think I'd take the screen :fing02:
  17. CBR F4/F4i passenger peg measurements 11 Oct 2011 15:47 I need to call on those that currently suffer from MBD and ask if there might be anyone with an F4(i) in their garage or at least at their disposal that would be willing to pull some measurements from the passenger peg…
  18. Confrontation with Harley guy. 22 Aug 2011 17:50 There are exceptions to all "types" of motorcyclists that can ruin the image for the whole. I hope to never understand the entitlement that comes as a factory option on some Harleys, just like I hope to never find…
  19. Best distance/commuting tire 12 Aug 2011 18:24 A friend of mine is just now replacing his non-GT version BT-023 rear on his ST1300 after about 10.5k miles - probably 50% slab. Also have a guy running the GT version on his FJR1300 and he's at about 7500 and it still…
  20. 6th Gen - DanMoto Side Mount Can 4 Aug 2011 17:12 After considering it for quite some time, I decided to move to a side mount can on my '05. I really dig the look and the sound is nothing short of outstanding but the obvious issue is the gaping hole left behind by…
  21. 06 Surging?? 1 Aug 2011 15:59 Go through the normal start routine (key on, switch on, fuel system primed) but do not start the bike. Turn the key off, then hold down the starter and turn the key back on. The bike should be running as the guages all…
  22. Cortech Sport Saddlebags 12 Jul 2011 16:34 I spent about $15 on a 1 1/4" flat steel and made a bracket to push the bags away from the cans. For a first attempt and a first timer I didn't think it turned out too bad and it worked perfectly - I used the rear pegs…
  23. New Oil Impressions - Also new Gagit I really like 28 Jun 2011 17:51 [image: View Post]SEBSPEED, on 27 June 2011 - 06:40 PM, said: I've had the same air gauge for years. Mine has a different end on it though- yours is straight & cylindrical, mine is round and angled... ? Combine it with…
  24. VFR no longer in demand? 27 Jun 2011 11:51 I had similar problems when I went to sell my Superhawk a few years back. And honestly I think it's because - like these guys have already said - the people that know VFR's already have one and rarely sell and the…
  25. Louder exhaust 20 May 2011 13:51 [image: View Post]ECHO, on 08 May 2011 - 11:25 AM, said: I like my Leo Vince SBK's without the baffles. They are a couple years old but have a nice growl without the obnoxiousness of a straight piped HD :) :+1: My Leo's…
  26. 1st time tmac attendees please read 16 May 2011 00:16 I just got back from Robbinsville yesterday. The point about experience with these roads cannot be stressed enough. Whatever pace you think you've got in your "normal" scenery you literally need to knock down a level…
  27. Do my levers look right? 19 Mar 2011 14:37 There's a good chance that I'm being mentally handicapped this morning (I had a late night at work), but looking at the top two pics posted it looks like the levers are reversed? I've never seen sets with the adjustment…
  28. How far can I ride in 7-8 days? 15 Mar 2011 16:30 [image: View Post]Alien VFR, on 09 February 2011 - 11:41 AM, said: On my cross country trip most of my days were around 350 miles. At that pace I was able to take in the scenery while still getting somewhere. My longest…
  29. Fall 2010 Cross Country Ride (LA>NY) 15 Mar 2011 16:21 Dan...you have to keep these animals fed or they get all ornery. Nice report so far, looking forward to the update(s)! Hitting the twisties is a rush but I don't know that there's any feeling like jumping on a bike and…
  30. Can you help me identify this wheel? 15 Mar 2011 04:40 Pretty sure that's a 600 F2 wheel, looks just like the one I had on mine. Sample pic of an F2 wheel...looks like a pretty good match [image: Attached Image: imagesCAXS9XWX.jpg] Think the F3's had a smaller center…

  32. vtec v ninja 1000 test ride 27 Jan 2011 12:29 [image: View Post]timmythecop, on 27 January 2011 - 07:07 AM, said: That is strange because I just read today that the fairings on the ninja were specifically designed to take heat away from the rider. I saw that too,…
  33. "Tweener" Levers 26 Jan 2011 01:54 SERIOUSLY? If that's legit, them dudes is sneeky. I saw their ad in Sport Rider and the name finally registered and I remembered a friend mentioning it. Don't mean to point peeps in the wrong direction...sorry all!
  34. "Tweener" Levers 25 Jan 2011 19:38 Just came across these, they fall in between the ASV/Pazzo's and the knockoffs. I know one rider that's ordered from these guys and he was satisfied with the product (plastics) and service. Just throwing it out there in…
  35. Rapid Transit Strap Mount Tank Bag 24 Jan 2011 21:08 Rapid Transit The Stack LT stackable strap mount tank bag - come on I know some of you have "plastic tanked bikes" in your harem. I believe it's a total of 21L of storage in two separate bags that zip together. Separate…
  36. Spidi Sport Composite R - 2XL (EU 10) 24 Jan 2011 20:58 Just need to get rid of these as sitting in my closet they're not doing anyone any good. Brand new, size 2XL Spidi full guantlets in black - worn once just long enough to realize they don't fit. Very good quality with…
  37. Replacement Grips 21 Jan 2011 14:53 I usually use Pro Grips and have been through just about every rendition they make. Can't really go wrong with any of them (comfortable - good traction) and they look good IMO.
  38. Turning left VS's turning right 21 Jan 2011 14:40 [image: View Post]timmythecop, on 21 January 2011 - 07:38 AM, said: [image: View Post]dpcincy, on 21 January 2011 - 07:32 AM, said: How do you know which eye is dominant? :blink: Extend both hands forward of your body…

  40. Painting/color question 18 Jan 2011 20:52 I have been considering the idea of doing mine in flat black with gloss finish honda wings (like the rr's have) and gloss custom emblems/lettering. :fing02: Probably change my mind after I mock it up in photoshop, but…
  41. So what cool stuff did you get for X-mass 6 Jan 2011 03:13 I did pretty well this year...finally got the wife and kids (as well a some extended family) conditioned :) Motovation sliders from the wife - along with a new balancing/truing stand and various tire changing tools. New…
  42. Leo Vince Exhaust (Pics) 2 Jan 2011 14:47 I have the older Leo system on mine and it sounds great, but man I love those conical end caps! Looks killer, congrats on the new pipes!
  43. Mom's Mabley 3 Dec 2010 13:46 There's an intersection at the exit of my neighborhood that I bet averages 6-10 crashes a year. The way the sun sets behind the lights makes them all but invisible to cross traffic and you always have to watch for the…
  44. Hi all 27 Nov 2010 15:58 Welcome to the fold, Brett. Congrats on coming to your senses :fing02:
  45. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 18 Nov 2010 02:18 Thanks for checking SEB, appreciate it. Any idea how that compares to the 05 R1 forks you're bolting up? I prefer to use parts I know going in will work, but cheaper options are always welcome :)
  46. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 17 Nov 2010 20:21 [image: View Post]SEBSPEED, on 17 November 2010 - 03:17 PM, said: Here is a version of that spreadsheet that I've been adding to. I have both 04/05 and 06/06 CBR1000RR fork sets at home, I will remeasure cap to center,…
  47. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 17 Nov 2010 20:18 [image: View Post]VIFFER93, on 15 November 2010 - 07:59 PM, said: The R1 off set is also 4mm (2mm each side) narrower then the 929/954/RC51 stems so you can not use a Yamaha upper/lower with a Honda upper/lower Here is…
  48. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 17 Nov 2010 20:16 The only information I have is in relation to the 04-07 CBR forks from the fork length spreadsheet on this site. It shows the length of the forks as 314, which would put it betwen the RC51 and R1 forks as far as length.
  49. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 17 Nov 2010 16:23 Anyone attempted the swap using CBR1000RR (06-07) forks or know of a reason they wouldn't work? The length looks to be right and they come stock with the spring rate I need, saving me a step and some coin. This is new…
  50. Fork Swap - Steering stem? 16 Nov 2010 03:28 Thanks all, appreciate the guidance. My plan will be to use the 929 lower with the SP1 upper combined with R1 forks, wheel, brakes, etc...a la ZRoyZ blue beauty. Will need some time to get everything together, but will…
