I would have to give a different opinion on the v-max as to the others. I upgrades the fork suspension to Ohlins springs and 15w oil. I ride most of the time with the sport bike crowd down here in Florida.(Yes we have twisties). I have no problem keeping up with the vast majority of them in the...

Well after my crash several months ago. I figured I'd just get the old bike running again and ride that after I got to feeling better. As it turns out my wife shows me an ad for a 93 V-MAX. You geussed it. The max followed me home. I've been ridin it now for about a week. Sure feels good to be...

Thanks everyone. Yes Warchild I have the money to put on a new one. As great a platform as the FJR is. I am thinking about trying something new. Not sure what yet. I will have to go shopping. The only farkles on there were the bra and throttle meisters. I didn't get them off before he got there...

I was out on a ride with a friend from out of state. We were working our way home. A van Deliberatlly Pulled off the shoulder and blocked both lanes as I was attemping to pass and go around. I attempted to swerve and used a little to much brake. The front washed out on me. The van then took off...

Got a pic from Daytona Biketoberfest. Yamaha had two of them under the tent.

I saw this today in Daytona. Seems a little extreme to me. But otherwise pretty cool.

I did not make it this year. I was going to try, however it didn't happen for me. Had I went my plan for rides would simply have been go where I want to. If anyone would have wanted to join me. No problem ride your own ride. If your faster than me go ahead. Just wait at the next stop or a turn...

I'm over by the airport(OIA). I typicly don't post much on these boards. Just like to read and see what's happening. I ride mostly with a group of sport riders out of Tampa. They like coming over here to ride the Clermont area. So I generally lead them around. Depending on who show's up dictates...

I was on Yamaha's web site, and you can create your own profile. This includes adding your yamaha bike and favorite dealer. You can look up any part to your bike with a part number. Not sure if you can pre order into your dealer or not. Haven't got that far yet. But none the less, pretty cool...

So Warchild, Are we going to see a new avatar? Something with the #185 on it now. Just curious. :dribble:

That is sweet. Congrats. I asked my wife for one when they came out last year. Her reply was, I'm going to have to say NO to the R1. I guess I shouldn't have been lane splitting in triple digits and scraping pegs in the corners with her on the back of the feejer. Now she knows my game. Oh well...

I don't ride with any cruisers. Just for the reason stated above. They can't or don't keep up. So I don't bother. When I ride with the sport bikes. Their only complaint with me is the bags. They keep thinking that the bags are going to scrape in the corners and come off. Then bounce up and hit...

Not much of a ride. But needed to get out after work for awhile. A friend showed up to go also. We got rained on for about 10 minutes. Then most of the roads were wet. Still a good ride though. Those guys on the gixxer's are always complaining about spending too much time in the saddle. I even...
