    Not even 4 days -- Dropped it..

    Yeah I had mine about 2 weeks and dropped it turning out of my driveway, was a lot more top heavy than my previous FZ1. I was so bummed I had it professionally done for 150. Colorrite is expensive but cheaper than buying the yamaha paint which can cost up to $100 bucks per pint, nevermind the...

    Fox Creek Leather

    It is an awesome jacket, far superior to most others on the market. I have the vented racing jacket as well with custom embroidery on the back and silver ykk zippers. It's extremely thick and will do wonders if an accident should occur (hopefully not). Very heavy but once riding not bad. I...

    New England clam chowder group ride

    ...Can't vouch for any of them, but I'm definitely smelling a field trip! Legal's is great, very fresh!! Kelley's is great too, but you have to like the traditional thinner consistency to enjoy it. I've never seen anyone put more clams into their chowder

    Riding Saturday May 1st

    I'm interested. I live near 495/290. Got any route in mind? I'm coming from North shore of Boston. I'd like to do maybe rt. 2 out to 122 around the reservoir (I've never seen the reservoir) and back up north connecting to 202 into NH and pick some route in NH to take back to Manchester then...

    Tourmaster Centurion One Piece Suit

    You might want to go with the Tourmaster Transitions Series II Jacket. It can be attached to their pants with an inside zipper but can also be worn as two separate pieces. Very comfortable, protective, and serves two purposes
