    From ZZR to FJR Compairson

    While the FJR may feel quicker, the ZZR1200 is a much quicker and faster bike overall. I owned them both at the same time. I have a GPS top speed picture lying around somewhere from the ZZR of 172 mph. The FJR would have trouble attaining that velocity if it was dropped from a helicopter.

    FS: Bagster cover & tank bag Gen1 blue

    I have a Gen1 2003-2005 Bagster tank cover & tank bag for sale. It was on a bike I bought from my brother. His 2005 only had 8800 miles on it. The bag is in like new condition. It's hard to find a value for these since it appears there's no USA seller of these anymore. What you see in the...

    I was right and wrong.

    The DRZ400SM comes with Dunlop D207's. They were OEM tires on several models of supersport bikes. They are NOT dual sport tires.

    I was right and wrong.

    The '07 SM's come with Renthal tapered bars. From the pictures, yours looks like an '06. The bars on the '06 & '05 are made of some kind of soft lead material. LOL Did you buy yours new? If so, you need to head back to the dealer and get your Excel rim stickers. They come with EVERY bike...

    I was right and wrong.

    Sorry to hear about your mishap. You'll want to get rid of those crap stock bars anyway. Put some fat ProTapers, Renthal, or Tags on it. Then get yourself some good quality (see Cycra) handguards. These bikes crash very well. Like I said over on the other thread, I lowsided twice in the...

    My Other Bike

    ...uhhh, and the rest of this story is? LOL I'm not being critical, I lowsided mine my first 2 track sessions of the day. Keep ALL your weight over the front end when you've got her laid over, trust me.

    My Other Bike

    Orange, sweet bike! Now get carb off and cut a hole in the top of that airbox. That machine NEEDS to breathe. Get over to Thumpertalk.com and introduce yourself. Remember to use ALL of those tires.
