    Fire Suppression

    Well, today my girlfriend and I were out shopping; and we watched a bike burn on the side of the road, and the rider rolling in the grass while bystanders helped put him out. Apparently the bike caught fire while he was riding, caught him ablaze and he bailed at a decent speed (45mph road) and...

    Eatsleepride App

    Anyone else using this? It's been out on iOS for a few years, but the public beta fir the Android app finally opened this past week. So far, it seems to have potential, and I like the idea of the Crashlight service and the ability to see riders in the area, as well as tracking riders in your...

    Wisconsin Meet and Ride

    Well, I've been in Wisconsin for almost three years now and still haven't managed to meet any of the riders near me. I'd like to rectify that this summer. So I'd like to propose those in the vicinity chime in so we can start coordinating a date and place that will work the best.

    Just Moved to Wisconsin

    Well. I'm even further from Alaska now. My girlfriend is originally from Milwaukee and after 3 years of unemployment and random temp job assignments that last only a few days, a friend from here told her of a job here. She applied, did a phone interview and got the job. So now I'm here, and so...

    The FZ6R Wiki

    Hey guys. I've been working with Admin on a little side project. I'm happy to say that, while it's still very bare-bones, we now have a wiki to maintain a lot of the information surrounding our bike and our hobby in general. I have a how-to on oil changes set up, along with templates for the...

    How do you summerize your cage?

    As spring approaches, I'm curious if anyone has a routine for the cage. I know last year I went 3 months without driving my car and the battery was dead, the engine ran a little rough until the full tank of gas I left in it burned out, and it had low pressure in three tires and one tire had come...

    The Essential DIY Tools

    I tried doing a search and didn't come up with much. It's surprising how many times the word "tool" is used in this forum with no reference to actual tools. ;) Anyway. I'm very much a do-it-yourself guy and I've just been trying to find a list of essential tools for the DIY motorcycle mechanic...

    I Got Creative Last Night

    Well, I found myself with some time on my hands, a few beers in my system, and still high on caffeine at the same time; so I sat down with my sketch pencil and some random pad of paper (hence the fishing stuff around the borders) and sketched out a font-type idea for the forum logos. Here it is:

    Wonder what this guys tire budget runs.

    A friend just posted this up on Facebook and I thought I'd share. Some rather impressive maneuvering and stun work with what I think is an SV650. The camera work isn't half bad either. This guy knows how to ride a bike. [VIDEO]

    Motorcycle Superstore's Wednesday Caption Contest

    I've noticed on Facebook that Motorcycle Superstore does a goofy little contest on Wednesdays where they put up an odd motorcycle picture and have people submit captions up until Friday. I think all you win is swag, but the pictures have been amusing, such as this weeks:

    Greatest Roads for iPhone Free For Limited Time

    The title pretty much says it all. I was looking at motorcycle apps and noticed Greatest Roads was free. It says it's only for a limited time. I've been playing with it, and it seems like a neat app for finding and sharing routes for fellow bikers. They're differentiated between Street and Dirt...

    Bike got damaged

    Well, my bike got hit in the parking lot. So far the only damage I see is to my front fender (broken off at the front) and my right side bar end is scuffed. Any idea how much the fender runs?

    Patriot Guard Riders

    I've seen the Patriot Guard Riders a few times at work since we're right next to the airport fire station where they hold the remains of fallen soldiers that get shipped in via airline/air-cargo. I think it's a cool service they provide, and am contemplating joint up with them. I imagine I'd be...
