I dunno what universe the sticker-shockers are living in, but a 2009 VFR with ABS retailed for about the same price as this one. Take into account...
I spent a few weeks out on Sheep's Head Peninsula a few years back, in County Cork, and I can tell you every time I was hitching to town for an...
The ZR-1 was junk. It handles like a pig and is unreliable. Everyone I ever knew that had one grew to hate it (and get rid of it). I'm amused by...
So far, they are the best tired I've ever had. Their profile is sheer magic. The bike is so easy to turn in now that it feels like a new machine...
Alright, so I'm setting up a cross next to this post so that if ya'll feel the need, you can crucify me for starting a tire thread. Anyhow. I...
Modern liter bikes are becoming so insane (read the new Kawi or the BMW S1000RR) that this comparison is really apples and oranges. A top of the...
Thanks for the feedback guys, and the comment about the rear tire's traction overwhelming the front actually does make perfect, physical sense....
Hm, well I'm proposing just that: a Q2 in the back, and a Roadsmart in the front. The Q2 is much stickier.
I just pulled a four inch, unthreaded, flat-tipped bolt out of my rear tire. I thought I hit a marble sized rock yesterday, but apparently it was...
I'd go with the newer one. Mofo is absolutely right about the cost. I differ with him in that I think that extra cost for the bike and luggage...
Great pics, and that looked like a wonderful ride. I must say, as an owner of a gloss black '09 I think that flat black looks dead sexy,...
Good to see another Chico native on here!
Unless you're a big guy, get a 600. A liter bike is overkill unless you're an excellent track rider.
I've used the stop and go patch once and it worked perfectly. I rode for about 400 miles on it because I was broke at the time (in town miles),...
Yeah, the things you seek cost a lot of money. Personally, I think this '14 6th gen is awesome and I am seriously considering picking one up 4...
Any modern 600 has more horse, more peak torque, and weighs around 75-100 lbs less than a VFR800. Only thing the VFR has is a little more low end...
That's rough man, especially that shot of (I assume) your kid lying on top of him as a baby. The ones that live a good long life are the hardest...
While true of normal jeans, this is not true of Draggin' Jeans. There are quite a massive number of crashes with photos of these things sliding...
That is one pimped out 5th gen you got there! WElcomes.
I have a pair of Draggin' Jeans, and can give a few comments on them: 1.) Construction: High quality. I can see these lasting decades if they're...
