Welcome to the site and to the 5th gen club.
Don't like beer too much, but I tried Kirin recently and it wasn't too bad. I prefer red wine.
The PR2s have been really good to me so far. I have a Dunlop Roadsmart in the rear and it's not lasting as much as I thought it would. I think it...
I thought I should mention that I'm close to replacing my front PR2 in the next 500 miles or so and I will have ridden about 13k miles on it with...
Bumping an awesome tip.
Around 34-36 in the front and 40-42 in the rear. Not only is that what's recommended for this bike per the sticker on the frame, but it's also the...
Definitely clean the pistons on the calipers before installing the new pads. A lot of crap gets stuck in there and can affect performance.
October is really far away. Darnit!
I don't need any room and board, but I'll be there! 21, huh? I thought you were younger!
Great site. Thanks for the link!
First off, welcome! Secondly, $3400 isn't too bad. You'll probably be able to talk them down a couple of hundred since it's been sitting. This is...
160 seems a little early for the light to be turning on. I think my 2001 turns on at around 200 miles or so, then I run it a few more miles. I...
I'm looking for a 2 Bros high mount mid pipe for my 5th Gen. I've scoured this site and others to no avail. I've even considered going to a place...
A guy I know installed a Two Bros pipe for an R6 on his sv650 and it sounded really obnoxious. I hated riding behind him. I would be very wary of...
Yes, this is exactly why I started this thread. It's probably very common to have some post-crash apprehension, but it's great to get some...
Thanks, guys. When I do get back on the saddle, I'm going to take it slow. I'm re-reading some of my riding books so that I can refresh all the...
All: Have any of you suffered from any post-crash apprehension? I can't wait to ride again, but just thinking about other cars, the inherent...
I'm kind of in the same boat as you. I had three crashes in about the same span. The last one was bad enough to require some surgery and rehab....
I guess if I went with the RF-1000, I could try using a skullcap. That would be pretty easy and I wouldn't have to mess with cleaning the liner,...
RF-1000 helmet owners: Does it bother you guys that the center pad (what your head touches) is not removable unlike the cheek pads and chin strap...
