I'm not sure if others who have gone from 600's to 1000's have experienced the same thing, but I am finding that I'm getting BETTER gas Mileage on the ZX-10R, than I was on the ZX-6R :confused Now I know that there are an INFINITE number of variables involved in the comparision, but then again...

Macneil/Lehrer report = FAIL compared to french current events news talk shows. 5Mapb3PWylU&NR

I'm a dyed in the wool Kawasaki Lime Green fanatic, but I saw pictures of this bike and it just sort of grabbed me as a nicely done job. plus I'm bored... Stefan

No one can argue that sportbikes typically have ergos that are racier than most need or want. Personally, After years of road cycling the position doesn't bother me that much, but I was looking at ZX-10R.net and came across this rather clever modification that saves quite a bit over buying...

I am truly looking forward to when this article comes out. Fascinating stuff! I particularly loved the builder/mechanics thoughts on how to create a superior performing bike... Stefan ZX-10r vs DesmosediciRR

Ok, this was something that truly bothered me, and J as well, and also everyone in the waiting room. I've always gone with J when she had her regular exams at her OB/GYN and been with her in the examination room, not because I am a sick twisted bastard, but because she specifically pleads with...

J and I were just watching the news when they had a follow up report about the rider's court date of the man who struck and killed the Father and Daughter as they were crossing the street; Killing the daughter and maiming the father so that he lost his leg and is still in critical condition...

J sent this to me. I'm certain it must have been some kind of mistake. Should this video be a sticky at the top of the "General" section? :) Stefan u9_kahA_wQo

Speedcells Not that I need a new battery by any stretch of the imagination, but the SBK Speedcells are not Lithium Ion but Lithium Ferrite and so they don't have the nasty habit of exploding into molten flaming napalm when they fail and are overcharged. I've saved about 11 pounds on the...

Bored, and so here is one for everyone... I was in front of one of those drivers that honks at you about .0125 seconds after the light turns green... I looked back at him in disbelief that ANYONE could be so cranky on a BEAUTIFUL day like this one and of course, he honked again... I rolled...

Posted for Bay Area Motorcycle Training ----------------- The VALLEJO training location is hosting an experienced rider course on April 4th from 7:45am-1:00pm, rain or shine. The course covers advanced riding techniques including maximum braking, swerving, slow-speed/tight U-turns, multiple...

The answer to this question could be deemed "academic" given my lack of track riding experience, but because I actually am spending money on both upcoming trackdays and bike performance parts, please bear with me. Ohlins has a reputation of being associated with high end racing. I've been...

Ok, I'm excited over Speed's complete coverage of WSBK, but what in the hell is going on with them broadcasting in glorious HD for the pre-race interviews and content, and JUST as the lights come on for the start THEY SWITCH TO STANDARD DEFINITION?! It switches to the 4:3 "grainy" image in the...

Everyone knows the signature colors of the major bike manufacturers, and even though there is of course some overlap with the colors on race teams, these colors have always been selections of primary colors like red and blue, or color schemes involving neutral colors, in custom patterns and...

This is a general irritation I've had for years now, and I thought living behind a gate would solve the problem, but apparently not! There I was, working in the garage happily, richening my PC III settings at low throttle and medium RPMs to try and get rid of some popping on decel, and here...

Is this likely to become a common implementation? Technical guru's speak out... Big Bang Effect Stefan

I did numerous searches for Power Commander V and found essentially nothing :confused Power Commander V I thought that this would be a hot topic here, particularly the real time A/F adjusting via wide band sensor(s) I might have to unload my old PC III and pick one of these up with the...

This evening I rode to drop some more papers off for our tax person and J was out getting the mail as I came riding down the court for my "victory lap" (what my neighbors on the street call the little circle turn I do in the court while I'm waiting for the gate to completely open) I pulled up...

Well, I'm back from running several errands on the bike and I WAS in a very good mood previously (My tax person had VERY good news for me!) I stopped by McDonald's to treat myself to fast food in celebration :) I parked the bike in view of the window seat I had as I happily munched away...

Honda Riding Simulator = Fail when compared to this riding simulator... Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned Two IMS shows ago, J and I both tried the Honda riding simulator and thought it was interesting and useful. Particularly the immersiveness of the motorcycle control apparatus. The...
