My First (second, third, fourth) Track Day Well I wanted to post about my first track day but I waited too long and now there has been four! :clapping: I’m not going to write in depth about them, because lets be honest, no body cares. So here is the abridged version for your reading...

Well I don't have much time to post up but I wanted to get it on here before someone makes the same mistake I did. I purchased a back protector and armored riding shorts from this vendor (RideGear.com). Did not get an email saying they had shipped after 4 days, I sent in a follow up email...

Any ideas on what this means: desktop pic forum screen Thanks for your help. -Drew

I'm surprised this one isn't already posted somewhere here, maybe it is? After seeing some of those ridiculous Mini Golf scores I was curious to see the scores for this one as well...best I've done so far is a little over 27 seconds. Red Dot Game

Ok well this is a bit of a follow up to my thread 2-guy, 2-up story. The shifter was stuck solid. (please keep in mind we have no idea what an engine is, how it works, or whats inside) Here's what we did...we took the clutch cover off and a lot of oil came streaming out...then we realized it...

Well today was a nice enough day in Winchester Va, so a buddy of mine and I went for a ride to Romney Wv to check out a dealership. He on his SV650 and me on the FJR. The ride was nice, it was chilly but I had the heated gear on and I'm riding an '05 so I was fine. My buddy on his naked SV...

I'm finally ready to have a go at the track. So this all may be for sale in a month as well. The matching outfit is pretty silly, I keep tellin' myself it's "okay" on the track. Most likely I'll be a natural and have sponsors etc., so my colors will probably change...ya know, whoever is the...

I have a gsxr that has almost zero brake fluid in the reservoir. I was wondering if you can just top it off with the same type of brake fluid or if you have to bleed the system first?? Also it hasnt been ridden in about a year, do you think there is a leak somewhere or do you think its low...

Welp I went ahead and bought this today from a buddy of mine. Its still basically new (an 06 with 2000 miles) and I have been pining for a 600 sportbike I can do some track days with...so here she is.

Just attempting to learn mapsource again and I was curious if when creating multiple "loops" are you guys using one file all originating from home? Or do you open up a new mapsource file for each new route? If I open a new one all of my points of interest and waypoints are gone. If you load a...

Wasn't sure if I should post here or on the Insurance forum. Anyway, I was looking at a 2006 Gsxr-600, for around the town and some track days...i think its a great deal at $6000...with only 1000 miles on it and an aftermarket pipe. I called my insurance today and they said it would be $1200...

One of the many reasons I love this bike. (the above photo is supposed to morph) Touring FJR: -GPS -XM Radio -IPod -Pillion Back Rest -Heli-Risers -Full Fender -Day Long Saddles -V-Stream Windshield -Tank Bag -Autocom -Hardbags -Passenger (wife) Sport FJR: -Remove bolted rear...

Man Vs Wild Article They also left out one scene where he was body surfing a whitewater river with his backpack...but he was obviously wearing a life jacket. Who knows what else in that show is fake...

Yep you heard it...looking for a stock seat for an '05

im sure this has been covered but i cant find it anywhere and i dont know what its called. So under the bike right now is a small puddle under those tubes...one is oily and the other smells like gas. im hoping this is ok, since these hoses look like they are supposed to leak something...

So I'm all done packing and heres where we are: Rider (added 10 pounds for gear)- 190 Passenger (+10)- 145 All packed Gear- 70 Total= 405 Max Capacity is 428 (with ABS) If i add the hard bags, which I have been told are approx. 30 pounds, I'm over. Still not sure if they are included in...

Should I go down the coast (rt. 1) or take 101?? For some reason my mapping program is discouraging me from going rt 1. along the coast. Thanks! EDIT: i got it to work. i think ill go along the coast.

Welp my wedding has come and gone. What a great way to start a very memorable weekend, to find this cake waiting for me at the rehearsal dinner Friday night!! Thought you guys might like this! Now its time to start getting ready as we depart on our 'Honeymoon FJR Adventure' in a week and a...

UPDATED BLOG 7-4 I wanted to post my trip here, any route ideas are welcome and I hope some of you follow along on my ride! I just posted my route on the blog I created for this trip. I'll of course check in with the forum as I go as well. So those of you that know whats out there on the...

So which do you think I should do first? I can use the FJR and learn how to use MY bike better. On the other hand I can use use their bike, and be on a true sportbike (which ive never really been on and sounds like fun). Whacha think?? Any comments on the school would be appreciated too.
