    Winter Gear: Balaclavas?

    I have that Alpinestars balaclava and I love it. Totally worth the $40.

    WATCH THIS!! It's Crazy!!

    I like how they drag the rider out by his foot, and then walk away without even checking to see if he's alive. Classy.

    An even worser feeling...

    Lesson Learned

    At least they left your bike.

    An even worser feeling...

    Thanks for the condolences everyone. Insurance co called today for some more info and said I should hear back in a day or 2. I've been scouring the interwebz for my next ride. I was pretty set on a GSX-R750, but I've started broadening my search. I may even keep it in the Yamaha family. I'm...

    An even worser feeling...

    I basically live in a subdivision of the hood. I was actually always more surprised every time I walked outside and saw my bike still there than I was to see it missing this morning. (but it was no less painful I promise) And flyboy, in this neighborhood we'd probably all be outgunned, but...

    An even worser feeling...

    I wish there was a Gixxer sitting in its place. Unfortunately it was stolen. I've already filed a report with the police and a claim with my insurance. Since, its a holiday weekend, I probably won't hear back from my insurance company till Tuesday. Not sure what insurance will pay me for it, but...

    An even worser feeling...

    So, I walked out the front door this morning to find that the spot on the sidewalk where my FZ6R was parked last night....is now empty. :(

    To all those arguing about colors...

    Sure, you can like yellow and black...but a yellow turd is still a turd. :p

    Seat cowl what do you guys think?

    I also saw that some people reported getting ALL the hardware with the cowl, while others had to borrow from their seat. I bought mine from a Yamaha dealership and was required to use the latch and the 2 small rubber pads from the seat. The instructions even tell you that you need to swap them...

    Aftermarket stuff

    Well, I took some pics but I'm having trouble getting them off my camera:confused: I'm gonna try to reload my camera software (if I can find it) and if that doesn't work, my dads pc has a card reader that I can get them off with. Unfortunately, it'll have to wait till tomorrow. Haven't slept yet...

    Funny or obscure thoughts youve had while riding?

    Occasionally I'll be riding along and think to myself, "Wow, that was really stupid! Don't ever do that again!":eek:

    Aftermarket stuff

    So, I want to trade in my FZ6R, and since I'm gonna get screwed on the trade-in value, I'm considering selling this stuff separately if any one is interested. 1) Power Commander V - $280ish + shipping. I fully intended to install this, but I decided to wait until I got the Graves block-off...

    Can't break 100mph

    I agree with Spunky, highway on-ramps are one of my favorite things. Balls-to-the-wall acceleration is on par with cornering as the best part of riding imho. I like getting on the highway and aiming for a hole in traffic. Its so quick and easy to tap 100-105mph and then back off to the speed...

    Trading FZ6R in...

    That's because they're good bikes. But, if you find an ss that fits you, you can't really go wrong. Luckily, I don't see many sport bikes around here period 'cause hicks and rednecks like cruisers. So, I don't have to worry about everyone else having my bike.

    new bike

    Sweet ride, love the color. But, just out of curiosity, why didn't you get the R? The dealership here is selling them for just $500 more than the se. Pretty good deal. Congrats

    Trading FZ6R in...

    I'm going in the same direction. I've been looking into either an '11 GSX-R750 or '11 Daytona 675R. Both are amazing bikes and get great reviews. Sport Rider magazine has GSXR reviews for the 600 and 750 in the June issue, Daytona 675R review in July issue, and the 600cc shootout in the August...

    [NSFW] This is a bar. Tell me a joke. [NSFW]

    A man walks into a public restroom and sees a guy with no arms standing by the urinal shifting back and forth. No arms: Oh thank god. Sir, could you help me? Man: No...sorry. (and he turns to walk back out) No arms: Please, mister! I gotta go really bad and no one will help me. The...
