So basically, if you are unemployed, speed as much as you like.

Oh wow. Port Dover is a hike though! Maybe I can get a friend to go. :o

What's up there??

I have sport saddlebags.. Slight impact on my mileage on extended highway speeds at high RPMs, but not huge.

RIP Rider. :(

I am still lusting after that cave. It's prime real estate! :D

Actually.. Disregard my last post.. it's probably a lot better to just pop open an image of the logo and trace it with illustrator/photoshop as vector art :p I'm happy to do this if someone wants it.

This is an awesome idea.. I definitely want to try something custom on my bike... For what you've got there, if you're looking to get closer to the original "FZ6R" logo font on the bike. It's likely bold italic, with the kerning/tracking brought down a bunch so that the letters are tight but...

Your link is a little broken.. for those who would like to click it a bit easier: Teen Motorcyclist Killed in Hit and Run Accident - KLAS-TV Channel 8 News Las Vegas Very sad. Definitely an FZ6R, white, had an Alpinestar decal on it. My condolences to the family.
