At $3500 MSRP, what say you BARF? http://www.cycleworld.com/2015/01/03/us-epa-approves-csc-cyclone-motorcycle/ http://californiascooterco.com/csc_cyclone_rx-3.htm

I recently installed a big brake kit and new SS front line on my '12 KLR650. That was one month ago. I'm now down to about 1/4 of the brake fluid I started with in the reservoir. The system is not leaking, dripping, or seeping anywhere but at the reservoir. I'm new to brake services and systems...

Hey all, I am heading to Arches National Park June 6th-14th. I need a small, easy to assemble, one-person tent to strap to the back of my KLR to camp in. I can put a deposit down on one if anyone is willing to loan me some shelter for my trip. Shoot me a PM if you think you have one to suit my...

This list represents what most riders know to be true: If a Yamaha is black, it is a 'Raven Edition'. A 'wheelie for safety' will bale you out of most predicaments. If you ride a Gixxer, it does not matter how experienced or ATTGAT you are; you are still a squid. The faster you lane split, the...

Long story short, my R1 was stolen, wrecked, recovered, and repaired with insurance money. During the rebuild I decided to change the entire color scheme of the bike, so I am left with several factory plastics that are %100 perfect, and some parts that are damaged cosmetically but perfect for a...

So I stumbled upon this bike that was locked inside an office. Clearly it's a Kawasaki of some sort...or maybe a Buell...possibly a GSXR...I'm not quite sure. Either way, I thought some of you old timers might enjoy this. :afm199

I'm considering putting in the leg work to get a new law passed for riders. In a nutshell, I would like permission to ride in 101's left emergency lane as opposed to lane sharing during the commute. I am sure there are tons of other highways where this could work as well, but I'm just thinking...

Don't laugh, but, can my KLR easily jump a curb to get up on to the sidewalk? Standard gutter height of about 5" or so. If so, what is the safest/easiest way to do it? Hit it with some speed straight on? Slowly bump the front tire up to it then creep up? Get off and power walk the bike up it...

All Fixed Up: ...and back in black! Finally got my bike back. San Jose Yamaha did a great job with her, and you can't tell it was even in an accident. Rides and runs like a top! I'm glad this whole ordeal is finally over. Photos of the damage: Update: I got a call from SJPD late...

Here's the super short version. I'm on 101N doing 65mph indicated on the R1 in the far right lane in a full tuck to avoid the wind (ATGATT minus boots). A car merging on to 101 from 87 located behind and right of me going about 70mph hit my right side. I would say slammed, but I managed to keep...

Sorry to anyone who may not read this because it's a long write-up. Here is the super short version: Motorcycles rule, so does meeting new people. So I spent the last week in Oroville, CA for military duty. If you don't know anything about Oroville, it's a bit of a shit hole by my standards...

Now I know that using all of the surface of the tire isn't everything, but it's definitely indicative of a riders confidence and trust in their machine. Today (thanks to Lunch Box kicking me in the ass and forcing me to meet him at Alice's to lend me a tail bag :thumbup) I found the elusive...

Hey BARF, I'm traveling from San Jose to Oroville on Monday the 26th and will return on Friday the 30th. The nature of my travel is for Army National Guard Training. Last time I went up there, I rode by 12' R1 with a backpack full of all my uniforms and toiletries. Needless to say, it nearly...

If anyone is up for a late lunch at Famous Daves in San Jose, I'll be there at 4:30 on Monday 8-19-2013. Grab some food, and maybe we'll shoot out for a quick ride while were at it. Mostly just an excuse to go eat some kick-ass BBQ. All welcome! Happy riding! :ride Famous Daves 61 Curtner...

Riding home on 101S yesterday. A yellow R1 (09'+) starts riding with me. :thumbup He's splitting at the same pace as I am and generally a decent rider. Nothing too dangerous or alarming IMO. Then, he gets blocked slightly by a gray charger. He starts revving the piss out of his engine and...

On your commute home today, you WILL... ...encounter a lane jerker. ...honk your horn, flip someone off or give the 'WTF shrug', depending on your personality. ...become overpowered by the smell of weed emanating from a car. ...wonder "Why the fuck is there a 2 inch cliff separating lane 1 and...
