    FZ 07, FZ 09, or FZ 10?

    I have an FZ-07 and love it. It would only be a waste of time if you're coming from a faster bike, like a Daytona. In this situation I say go with the FZ-09 or XSR900.

    2015 Yamaha FZ-07

    $6499 for a leftover brand new '15 is a decent deal IMO. Most dealers will indeed charge you those fees, it's pretty standard. Though, when I bought mine last winter, I paid MSRP + tax. No discounts to be had on a brand new first model year bike in high demand, but the dealer ate the freight...

    Canadian Online Stores

    I have ordered from Canada's Motorcycle, GP Bikes, Motostarz and bought from Twisted Throttle's retail store. All were good experiences.

    Yikes Yamaha! WTH?

    I LOVE that MT-10. I hope they bring it here as the FZ-10 so I can pick one up in a few years.

    You wear motorcycle boots....what socks keep your feet the coolest on these warm days

    I just wear normal cotton socks. I don't find my feet getting overly hot and I wear Alpinestars S-MX 6 boots.

    VFR1200 or ST1300 so I can do real distance with my ol' lady.

    Would I be stupid to go for the Icon Alliance Dark helmet?

    I have an Alliance Dark and even in this recent heatwave it hasn't been any hotter than it was back in the spring. Great helmet for the money, I can't recommend it enough. The rubatone coating shows every single but splatter after your ride though, it's really unsightly. Echoing the "f***...

    Same. Picked up this bike May 15th and on the 22nd it was in for the 1000km service (with 1202km on it).

    Is this a Ducati year...??

    It's certainly better than the old air-cooled engines, though my Yamaha has 40,000km intervals.

    Post up PICS of members bikes?

    The day after I picked it up. **** photo because my phone's camera is ****. It now has a full Yoshimura exhaust and those awful tank warning stickers removed.

    Yamaha XRS700? Yes. Please.

    I love my FZ-07 to death but I really like the styling on this XSR700. If the radiator was black it would look much better.

    Approved Helmets?

    Be weary of the helmets they sell. The vast majority are way past their "sell by" date, in that many manufacturers say 5 years is when a helmet should be replaced. I was looking at some Shark S800s they had that were manufactured in early 2005. No thank you. The other crap they have is GMAX...

    Is "KTM Quality" a lie?

    The 390 Duke I checked out at the local dealer was the shoddiest piece of brand new crap I've ever seen. What a mess.

    sportbike that has the best riding ergonomics? should I go naked?

    I just picked up an FZ-07 and it's comfortable and has enough power to keep me entertained for a while. Great bike, though a tourer it is not. For your commute you'd want a tall windscreen.

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Black and blue FZ-09 ripping by me up a hill in Paris on Friday around 2pm. Asserting dominance over my FZ-07, I guess :D
