I'm helmet replacement shopping and read the Regent-X doesn't have EQRS, emergency quick release system. I just saw the Signet-Q at Cycle Gear doesn't either... For the price, it seems they should have EQRS. Or is there some performance reason they don't have it?

Apparently I'm not a 48 anymore and I'm going to have to return this brand new A* GP Pro, perforated leather, jacket I just got in the mail... Or hook up my fellow Barfers for the same cost I paid, $491.61. Obviously I want to sell it before the return deadline. I just tried it on once and put...

I'm going to naked, single headlight and my working setup requires new wiring to the low beam prong on the h4 bulb down to a harness under the tank. 1. What gauge wiring is best for low beam? 2. Any local Bay Area shop recommendations for wiring connectors (T-tap/male harness pin, female...

I bought the bike with the sliders already and need to replace one side of the threaded delrin(?) puck. Hopefully someone here can ID so I don't have to buy a new puck. Thanks for any help BARF! Picture: https://photos.app.goo.gl/cDbeW7UMRz6GwscT8

Sup BARF! I had an upper-fairing-smashing low side recently coming from hegenberger/98th to Ron Cowan. I was fine on the right turn sweeper, then as I transitioned to turn left, I lost traction and low sided at a speed a little higher than the posted 45mph limit. It happened so fast I couldn't...

Did anyone see this crash? I saw a firetruck and ambulance then a quick look once closer revealed a red and white CBR or Aprillia [guesing from what looked like 2 big pointy headlights] and a rider on his side, bent at waste, back facing fast lane. The front of his bike had the front fairing...

I got a notice that my vehicle is to be sold and has storage fees of $300. They have my name, address, vehicle year, make, model, and incorrect license and VIN... The above info is supposed to be private according to DMV's Personal Info. policy. Has anyone ever received a similar mailing? Is...

I was rolling to a parking spot and cut the ignition maybe 10ft away, going maybe 10mph... then i tapped the shifter into 1st by accident and the rear locked. I caught the bike and didn't slam to the ground, but had to bail when the bike got so low I couldn't lift it. I tried to move my left...

The crash details are in the crash forum.... My left forearm/bicep/elbow clicks when I squeeze the clutch sometimes. Strained tendon? Common? I don't feel any specific pain. I was going maybe 35mph when i hard braked and hit her bumper. The only cause of injury I can imagine could have been the...

Thank God it was Saturday traffic and not rush hour... I needed to get from 580 to 80 and noticed the usual bottle neck. I slowed to about 45 and looked for a hole to jump in. I saw one somewhat later than I hope and went for it. I got into the lane and planned to get over one more lane or split...

RS-Taichi 824 Leather Jacket, 38/48, New w/ tags I got it brand new from Japan [via Scuderia] but it's too short for me. sz 38us/48eu. Black w/ Red on the speed hump and elbows. It may run a little small, or I may just be a little tall for my width [5'10" 150lbs]. It's a great jacket for sure...

I just got this from Scuderia [great service!] but it seems a bit short. I haven't ridden with it yet, so not making any conclusions... More posting this to see what BARFers think. On a bad spill, would my kidneys get splayed?! the back of the jacket does dip down a little in a crouch...

I got a matress and box springs handed down to me, but it's too big for my room! Measures about 6'x7' Still in great condition, non-smokers, no pets, clean, and stored in my living room in the bag from the new matress. Posted on Craigslist for $50, but fellow BARFers can take it free as long...

$40 for a practice AND a sprint [5min qualify + 15min race]... roughly 1hr of Karting. Summer deal ends today [Friday, 9/26]. Myself and a "prospective-rider" friend are set to go at 6pm. Just wanted to share the info about the deal, and see if any BARF folks want to join. :thumbup...

It's been about 1000 miles or so since my last oil change. I'll have to check my spreadsheet at home... When I rode it on Sunday, I noticed it would drop RPMs intermittently under load. i.e. Acclerate from stop light, get into 2nd gear, accel to about 50, ~8500 RPM, then tachometer dips down...

Like New, only wore it twice and it feels a bit too big for me. It comes with a helmet bag. Still have the box, stickers, everything. ;) make an offer. ----------------- FYI, incase you haven't herd of the AC-12, and are too lay to google: HJC AC-12 Full-Face Helmet - Yikes III...

http://www.infinitymotorcycles.com/product.asp?ProductID=1699 anyone seen these before? I just tried them randomly during lunch break at cyclegear and I love the fit and easy fastening, and they dont look like payless shoes! not really... I like the concept because right now I just wear hiking...

Hey BARF Bretheren+Sistherens, AMCI (Automotive Marketing Concepts, Inc.) just notified me they need 2-3 additional workers for their Acura Dealer Training/Test Driving Event next Mon + Tues. Same deal as "work" at an AutoX event [stand somewhere in a cone course, pick up knocked over cones...

Ski For Schools has discount tix for Sugar Bowl tomorrow... cant miss this deal! Just checking if any BARFers know about this, and if there's room for 1 or 2 BARFers [me and a friend] on the way up? We might end up taking a beat up Accord if no other options, and a 3rd person to split gas is...

Theres a popular mod for ex500s where you put sliders from a 599 [ordered from eBay] in place of/next to the pass rear pegs. I did it to protect some new pipe, and save the bike since I'm newb... I laid the bike down doing a slow U-turn up-hill. Tried to stop the fall by putting my foot down...
