Wow! When was that? Also, why. I think the site was up with that Domain for quite a while. By the way, thanks for reply.

Just discover today that old fz6r forum no longer exists. What happened?

Had two Ninjas 250 before my other three bikes, which include: -Street Triple -fz6r -Bonneville SE And I don't regret getting the 250 1st. It gave me the confidence and skills I need in order to ride a bigger bike. Some people jump directly to a bigger engine, but you need to be careful if...

I was scared, not of me, but of him! I even said a small pray after I lost him. He looked on drugs, drunk, high or something. Was riding a Harley with paper tags and the bike had a small fly screen. And I actually don't like Harley's, lol, but it was a nice bike. He was riding erratically...

I did it Friday. I was in my car. This guy wasn't wearing helmet, no jacket, nothing. He was swerving between lanes. Cutting people off. Even decided to move from leftmost lane where he was going to turn left during a red traffic light to center lane. There was when I rolled down my window and...

You'll be fine. But you'll sell your 1st bike at some point :-). So don't worry too much about small details now. Now, the Street Triple R is a naked bike, but if I recall well is fully adjustable and the suspension is more stiff than the fz6r. I used to own a Street Triple and it was an...

Very personal decision but I would replace the whole tire. If this is a temporary slash few days solution, that's ok. But a motorcycle is a two wheels only vehicle. Tires are key for the safety and grip of the bike. So I would not trust my safety to a tire that has been damaged already...

Read that the throttle issue is fixed when in B mode, is that right ? Also, I'm 5' 10 and when I seated on one, I found it taller than the ST. I barely pushed my ST when I had it; I was hit before I end the break-in period, sniff, sniff ... but somehow, the ST was predictable. Way more torque...

Nice combo! :-)

Beautiful. I think I saw you on YouTube, lol ... How do you like it so far ? Pros and cons? I used to have a ST. Bought it after my fz6r. Now I ride a Triumph Bonneville SE. I'm debating between buying the fz09 and selling the Bonnie or keep both, after saving few bucks and give a big...

So, did you get it? :-)

True! This is one of the most respectful and useful bike forums out here, at least in USA. I no longer own a fz6r but I still come here, post and read few threads. Lot of good advices here.

4 second rule? Teh, Saw your video again, and no offense by this comment... Were you following the 4 to 6 second distance rule? Like I said, I checked the video carefully, it looks like for being in a highway , you were driving too close? I count after the limo passed a fixed pointed, it...

It's a blessing If you are ok and in one piece, crashing it's a blessing :-) You can take that as a lesson and improve your skills (happened to me) The experience can actually save you life if happens again. And ... if bike is totaled and insurance helps, you can get a new bike or...

No thanks! I visited CA back in December due a SQL Cluster Project I had. I was driving the rent car, going early to my office there, and barely saw someone (a rider of course) sharing the lane with me. I swear God I was not going to block him or something, but because traffic jam in...

While my previous accident WAS NOT my fault, and I was fully protected (that's why I'm alive and typing here) this morning was not justified, and I'm not going to. You are right. And that's why I'm also sharing the experience and mistake with forum members, so others won't repeat. Wasn't...

Bonnie and I, eating lunch at Quiznos. Ok, ok, me eating, she's taking a nap ... :p Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SII via Tapatalk.

Yeah, this morning not having a jacket was stupid. It really increases visibility. That was my main concern. I bought the Boneville SE past weekend. Wife is still mad. But I truly love riding. I understand, the risks, but this is my only hobby. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SII via Tapatalk.

Re-learning shifting techniques. Power curve and gear ratios are totally different than Street Triple or my previous fz6r. Not talking about power only, but gear ratios. Found myself without enough power band on 2nd while taking a U turn ramp to the highway. The Bonnie requires 1st. I couldn't...

Never "had the pleasure" before :-) ... and happened today, while riding my new Bonnie. Let me tell you this... it was not fun! I usually watch the news early morning, just to validate weather and see if I should use my Speed6 instead. The news did not mention anything about rain, but fog...
