I guess it all boils down to what you like and feel comfortable on. I have personally riden a couple SV1000's, TL1000R's and a couple Harleys/Harley based bikes. I like the torque of the V-Twin engines, it is so smooth and all over the rpm range, but Japanese to Harley, Japanese wins in the "less vi...

Update
Well, the verdict is in, surgery is required. The E.R. people misread the x-rays and what they thought was a broken collar bone was just the fuzzyness of the swelling showing up on the x-ray friday night. I had a MRI on wedsnesday and weighted x-rays on thursday. I have a 3rd degree seperation of th...

To add fuel to the fire, this guy (country1340) is a motorcycle mechanic at the Memphis Victory shop and pulled the motor out himself so one would think he noticed that motor mount issue. I would say more than likely he "caused" the motor mount issue. Sorry to hear about your bad luck Silver, I hav...

Hey guys, thanks for the kind words, crashing does suck, but it is a fact of riding. This crash I really dont blame on myself, more so the city for the massive potholes they didnt fix when they re-blacktopped the road. Everyone keeps telling me I should sue the city for repairs to the bike and my me...

At 6'3" and 155 lbs, I doubt that I have a weight problem.... well actually I do have a weight problem... not enough of it. We need to put you on a big mac and super size fry diet. I am 6'5" and 275lbs, I dont consider myself fat, but I could do well to drop down to 250. I dont think with the 6" ov...

LOL These things are cool to look at, but thats about it, in my opinion. I worked at a bike shop that sold pocket bikes one year for Christmas, what junk they were, seemed like every single bike came back for repair (except 2, the guy bought them for display only). Most of the problem was clutch rel...

My guages have always been dim (tach, speedo and temp), even at night they lack the brightness I would like to have. Would these be available at auto-parts stores or only through a dealer ? I have seen some replacement LED bulbs at my LPS but they are expensive. It was like $9 for a 194 LED replacem...

I have always used Suzuki's chain lube it says it has "S-Moly" in it. Anyways, I always lube my chain when it is hot from riding (just what I was taught to do). I put the bike on the swingarm stand and knock the crud off it, then with the bike in 1st gear, I left the clutch out and let it idle as I ...

My latest ride...
Ok guys, dont hate on me, I bought another bike from the "Dark Side". I love my FZR but have ALWAYS had a thing for gixxers, so here she is, my newest ride, a 1993 GSXR1100W. The engine is punched out to a 1117 (they are 1074 stock) which bumped the compression from 11.1:1 upto 12.0:1, the head has ...

Yeah, I got to poking around on the Sudco website and found that 39 and 41 are the avalible sizes, the reason I said 40 is that is the internal measurement I got off the engine side of the carbs.... Since I never road race and only hit the drag strip now and then on friday nights for racing against ...
