Budman asked me, and you, to start posting up more moto stuff...., My FZ-09 had been behaving strangely in high speed corners. The front end would chatter a bit, very disconcerting. I had had Jason at JPH suspension set up my bike a couple years ago, but others had done little adjustments...

Hi All! I’m thinking of meeting a couple friends for a ride up to Berryessa and wanted to see if anyone has ridden up there lately. We would take the GP route and have lunch at Perry’s in Middletown. I’m curious about road conditions, work happening after the fires, etc. we don’t want to get in...

This sporty hatchback has low miles, tons of interior space, and is a real kick to drive! We’re the second owners (it’s my wife’s car ) who bought it in 2011 with low miles (103k) This vehicle has been meticulously maintained and all records are available. I can provide our mechanic’s contact...

Hi Guys! I picked up a screw this weekend in a Dunlop Q3+. It’s a decent size hole from a screw that I plugged and ride home (you can see the plug in the photo). I’m going to replace it, but thought someone might want to do an inside plug and ride it out. Purchased/installed 3 mo ago 2000...

So, I’m walking back to work after lunch and decide to check out the bikes parked in MC street parking adjacent to UC Berkeley campus. This spot is in front of a popular restaurant. One bike has a key in the seat release. I put it in the ignition and, sure enough, this key would start the bike...

It’s hard to believe that Robbie has passed. He was a stand up guy with a solid business, a real pillar in the MC community. We miss you, bro! You’ll always be my MotoTireGuy. ❤️ Alas, life moves on and I need a new set of tires. Who installed your fresh rubber in the post-Robbie era?

Hi All! I picked up this sweet little flyscreen on Craigslist for a ‘17-19 FZ/MT-09, but decided to go a different direction. Original owner stated $155MSRP and it has never been mounted. Includes manual and mounting hardware and a couple stickers. $75 and it’s yours. Thanks for looking! Carl

I picked up this little generator at Costco yesterday due to the threat of more PG&E shenanigans, but now I’m wondering if it’s worth it just to keep the fridge going and charging devices in a power outage. I know they are handy for track day junkies and RV folks, but I’m neither. How do you...

Alas, the R3 is gone, but I have a few tasty bits that would be great on your bike. 1. Genuine Yamaha rear seat cowl. SOLD. It came off my matte grey 2016 and looked sharp. Would probably look good on other bikes as well. There is a bit of rash on the side (see pic). This item lists, for...

From the FZ-09 forum. This dude needs more rear braking power, so he’s fitted a front rotor to the rear wheel. Discuss. CJ

Hi Barfers! Awesome bike, very "versytile", but time to move on. I'm the original owner of this meticulously upgraded and maintained machine. This pampered beauty was broke in by the book, has never been dropped, and has been treated to full-synth Redline every 3000 miles (starting at 2K). I've...

Hi Guys! Teach your husband, wife or kid to drive a stick! Reliable, meticululously maintained, fun to drive! Up for sale is my 1995 VW Passat GLX manual trans five speed. I am the second owner having purchased it in 1997. It's been a great car, but I'm looking to pick up a modern sports car...

These size 8M gloves are in excellent used condition. Minimal wear, all seams intact. They are nicely vented for summer riding, yet offer protection sufficient for track riding. Super comfortable, but the fingers are just too short for me. Asking $60. Thanks for looking! CJ

Hi Guys! Can anyone identify these gloves? I bought then on Craigslist in new condition from a guy who upgraded to Phantoms. They are nice gloves, but don't fit me well and I'm going to put them up for sale. I would like to let prospective buyers know what they might be buying, but I don't know...
