Don't worry about what Ray says, he's just upset because his wife doesn't let him ride either of his bikes ever. He's one of those Internet forum guys who always acts like he knows what he's doing or is better than everyone. If he was better, he would have gotten a better lean angle when he hit...

Anyone else notice that his forks weren't adjusted and left at the stock setting? lol the things I notice..

Get the F off your cell phone and ride your damn motorcycle. Jeez.... How does anyone have any fun these days..? Getting lost is more fun than following a GPS. Who needs a touch screen watch that does the same thing as the phone in their pocket? Lol Seriously..... Technology makes people...

Will keep this updated. The cop will never ever say that I stopped. I will try to fight this to the end.

Your seating position has to be all wrong... Arms and hands should never hurt. ***, yes, that happens with the brick seats on race bikes.

So, a little while ago I got two ticket. 37 over (he paced me over a 700 meter stretch of road... AKA he hammered the gas and hit on the lights, NO RADAR) and failure to come to a complete stop. All of my wheels came to a complete stop, officer told me I have to stop for 3 seconds (he can't see...

With my extensive time on multiple R6's, I can tell you that they are great machine. Definitely intended for the track, but I've done tens of thousands of KM's touring on mine and a ton of it was two up. I have some soft panniers (tail bags) and a tank bag for touring. It's a phenomenal handling...

Damn Chase, glad you're okay man. You're the 3rd person I know who has been hit this season so far. I had a lady turn into and bump me downtown a few weeks ago.... Her rear door on the SUV didn't survive the incident after my boot went crashing into it a few times. She didn't stick around to...

You can hook a helmet on a 2010 R1 pillion seat lol. You need to step your game up.... I've taken pizza's and other random things on my bike. You just find a way, bikers are supposed to be creative!

Do what you want with the bike. Enjoy riding and continue learning lots! Most of these guys on the forum who post all the time, type more than they ride. Same as their opinions are better than their skill on two wheels. Enjoy the new ride OP.

I understand the point you are trying to make, but it is invalid. The difference in the picture is purely body position. You can position yourself identically on both bikes, regardless of seating position or the bars.

520 chains can last a LONG time if you take proper care of them. I run a 520 chain ERV3 and aluminum sprockets. The weight difference is minuscule, until you throw your bike into a corner.... There is a significant difference, but it's not necessary for the street at all. I do suggest a 520 with...

Thanks for that Ray. Please, do us all a favor and spend more time learning how to ride, rather than posting on here. You never fail to amuse. I'm glad your search engine skills are optimal (your PhD has been put to good use), now continue to work on your cornering. Wait, your wife made a deal...

Doesn't matter what bike you're turning on, it requires the same basic skills, which this rider has not learned. Yes, some bikes turn better than others.... but you can still apply the same concept without falling over. I've hopped on a thousand pound cruiser and then back to my SS bike...

This rider should have stayed on a smaller displacement motorcycle and have learned all the proper skills before purchasing a super sport motorcycle. A lot of riders make this same mistake. Learning skills at a slower speed, on a more forgiving machine builds your skill. Much harder to learn on...

Yamaha R3 for sure..... ABS isn't really a big deal, you don't really need it. It's a fairly new thing on motorcycles. People have ridden motorcycles for a hundred years before ABS came along.

If you're asking that kind of question, you shouldn't drive or walk down the street either. Hide mole man, hide and never come out. They say no question is stupid.... But you nailed it.

The OP has no clue what he's talking about. Whitby is one of the best populated areas to drive in the GTA. The actual reason? People from Canada, who didn't come from some crap over populated country, hence the sh*t driving and insurance rates in Bramptanistan. They speak English at Tim Hortons...

There's a lot of guys on SS bikes that go fast in straight lines.... Those same guys have square tyres lol.

I love Yamaha, but..... If you're an aggressive rider... Avoid the FZ-09.... Unless you wanna buy a new suspension front and rear, right away. Bike has loads of power, it's an awesome wheelie machine.... but that suspension is garbage. This wasn't on stock setting either, this was all set up...
