    This Is What Motorcycles Are About

    +1 for my inspiration of the day:) I absolutely love these little clips, kind of reminds me of the "elder Japanese" guys who took up one last ride. Brings a tingling smile to the face:)

    What are your cheapest, yet best mods on your bike? (Less than $50)

    Best one yet! And @ Macdoc: Do you mind sharing where your tank bag was purchased from for $49?

    Chain lube

    I have been using HHS2000 made by Würth. Very little fling at all and easy to clean. @Power_Man, Talk to Keith, he can get you a can and give you his thoughts also.

    93-95 900rr vs ZX7/9

    I would personally go with the FZ1, but the old school side of me says the CBR! Grab a 17" wheel from a later F3 and the handling is much improved.

    Full-face helmet with the widest vertical viewing angle

    I'd take the Suomy off you list if you are looking to see anything while tucked in. I love my Vandal, but you can't see $h!t while laying on the tank:(

    Inexpensive custom brake lines?

    Gas Pumps: Fueling

    how far are you sticking the nozzle into the tank? Does the tank have a "stop" to rest the tip of the nozzle on? On my CBR, the tank has a stop so it only allows the nozzle to go in approx 2-3 inches but none of my older bikes have had this. If your bike does not have this option and you are...

    Great deal on the Garmin Nuvi 255WT

    +1 I just bought a used 255w hoping for custom route capabilities without doing my research 1st. I can manage to make due with adding waypoints, but that takes some extra time when programing. I just prefer to use motowhere at my convenience and upload it to the gps so now im on the hunt for a...

    "branded" reconstructed bike from Quebec

    Do you happen to be keith's buddy? Your story sounds way too familiar. If so, glad you are on the lookout for him as i would hate to see this be the start of his moto career.

    Bike for wife - Under $2500

    A 650 Savage might do the trick. Reasonably nice looking and they seem to be running in your price range.

    Question About Honda CBR 125 & Tires

    After having 3 different sets of tires on mine, I have become fond of the Pirelli MT75 90/80-17 front and 110/80-17 rear They are i very nice "upgrade" from the irc's. They slow the steering a bit, but that is a good thing on these bikes as they feel a bit twitchy to start and they handle well...
