It truly is. Even compared with some of the new full on crazy machines well.....it still compares. For my wants/needs my full fairing touring edition just works for me and I don't really know what I could replace it with that would tick all the same boxes.

One of my greatest joys is road riding. Having the acceleration to do whatever you want. I actually got the dual sport to help reduce my exposure to the nearly 150whp that the fz1 puts down with the standard mods. I'm geared down slightly too so top out at around 260kmph, the tradeoff being...

That's some cool shit Paul man I'd love to have a local track. Closest club is a solid 5hrs one way. So no way for me to make it work. One other track slightly closer does a handful of trackdays a year for bikes but super expensive, start around $375/day plus taxes, plus plus plus. So...

Good to read of all the next generation riding!

I'm eagerly awaiting the beginning of the season here. I upgraded over the winter from my cbr f4i to a 08 fz1. Super stoked to get out. Still rippin the wr400 for off road action.

Nice! Quick and easy..............just like bachelor party guests should be. :/:

Well the dirtbike casualty turned out to be a young neighbour 29. Out Friday night for a rip snort around the block. No light on the bike, no helmet on the head. I still did a wheelie up the hill on the way home today. It's my spot, now I just give a nod and a RIP before I do.

I will add often the flexible rod magnets come as a two for and the 2nd piece is a four claw pick up tool which is super handy and often does the trick too.

Nothing wrong with screwing up mechanical endeavours. It can/will be fixed! You're light years ahead just doing that stuff yourself in the first place.

I would try all of those things in about that same order I think. I've got a magnet rod and it's an invaluable tool to have. So I'd definetly start there. Rained/raining all weekend here. I changed the plugs in my wife's ninja 300 and cleaned every inch of it, all the plastics inside and out.

Quite a morning in my neck of the woods. A dirtbike died last night about 150-200m from my driveway on the crossroad. I heard them ripping last night just before I was off to bed. Thought man someone's really giving er. Even had an inkling to jump on my WR and see what was happening as it...

A dank nooner yo!:rockon: I'm waiting a year or two for my midlife crisis. When I get a r1. :evil: Right now I'm just working up to the crisis. In training.

I had a buddy who got into skydiving for a brief time. Exclaimed about the rush and how much fun it was. Mistimed his landing on like his fifth or sixth solo jump(here you learn tandem before being allowed to go it alone) and shattered his ankle. Never jumped out of a perfectly good plane again...

I don't believe I was embellishing your assessment. But maybe I misunderstood. I doubt you or I wouldn't attempt that because even if we did it's unlikely we'd make the launch even. As in make it to, onto, and off the ramp with appropriate momentum. We'd have have better luck doing it with...

Not me. No way would I leap out of a perfectly good plane.

For one. The inherent risk of skydiving? I don't think many would call skydiving a risk free sport even at 1000's of feet from a plane. If you look at the vid the landing looks sketchy to me. Like just in time did the chute fill and lift attained to stop from plummeting to a painful death. The...

If you see no real risk in that gif B. I have to question if we are watching the same thing? Maybe the 40' or so jump he takes as part of the approach seems riskier to you than the rest?

All bikes are cool. I'm gonna hit up the dirt riding again while my bike is down waiting on those parts. Practice some dank nooners. Lol.

I road a super tenere 1200 at the Yamaha demo days this year. It was fun to try out. But not for me. Lots of buttons and screens and modes and stuff. Electronic adjustable suspension even. Africa twin. Does sound cool. I gotta admit I kinda poke fun at the adventure bike crowd. All in good fun...

No one needs a 14000rpm redline. Some of us just want it. :crazy: I find myself yearning for more power still. It's a illness and I've got it bad. But I find myself bouncing off the rev limiter more and more often trying for just a little more powah. My wife has forbidden me a 1000cc...
