I know everyone here hate's on Harley's but I've been to a few dealerships and all of them have been cool. Most of my recent visits to sportbike type dealers have been very disappointing. They answered all my questions with a no pressure attitude and all of them offered test ride's on any of...

So I have this cafe racer project , xs650. I got it in a bunch of boxes from a friend who started it but lost interest. He did some cool things and one of the is the custom cafe style seat. It's made from the back section of a Sportster tank welded onto a piece of steel plate (like 3/8" !!). It...

Anyone here into Speedway ? Have you ever ridden/owned/raced one ? I'd like to at least ride one at some point as it looks super fun and like it'd be great for control practice.

The title says it all ! My '01 just isn't that comfortable to me on long rides. I mostly feel it in my right elbow and between my shoulder blades. I am not that tall (6'ish) and not heavy at all (155#). Are helibars the answer ? Are they woth it ? Most vfr owners say how they can ride them all...

I posted here a few weeks ago about a shitty two up ride my fiance and I had . We have gone on a couple rides since and "I" have had a pretty good time and felt fairly confident. Jennifer on the other hand said she is "scared she's gonna fuck up !" She didn't have any problems when I had my F4...

Can someone please clarify what a 360 degree or 180 degree crankshaft is ? And all other degree's as well . What is the significance of any of them vs another ? I've heard of a "re-phased" engine but it never knew about the crank part of it. Rich

I have an '01 vfr and plan on riding it to work as much as possible. I'm covered on the gear side but never had luggage before. I was thinking of getting just a top case but was wondering if side bags would work better for me ? I am a sheet metal worker and therfore have to carry a tool belt...

Does anyone have experience with these yet ? I want an inexpensive suit for commuting in all weather conditions. How water proof are they and does that hood really work ? Thanks , Rich
