Deer, bat, blast from fire hydrant, and a bee went up my shirt sleeve and kept stinging my arm pit. Got everything on the go pro but the deer, its the reason I bought them.

Combo, I still can't stop laughing at your post. Funny and an amazing list. I really like #12. Thanks! Micha, great points. Once I get my computer replaced I will try to toss a video one YouTube showing from the front wheel back also showing us why I scrape. It just frustrated me to leave for...

Sorry for the tension guys, no hard feelings I'm just looking for an answer. B-eock, your good. Thanks for telling me about the videos, I will watch them later when my phone gets reception. Trooper, do you know what would come next after the exhaust scrapes? That's what I am after finding out...

Mmmmm K. I don't really need to be told to learn how to ride. Have you rode with me? I could be better than you for all you know. Maybe I don't feel like wearing pucks on my way to work. Maybe I like to toy with mine differently. Maybe its my way of riding without the full gitup on, on rough...

Thanks 07, I would paint it black if I got it. And yes I am talking about the corners. I love slinging mine around and getting the Michelin's sliding.

I think your talking about holding in the clutch and not being able to shift more then a few gears down at a time. If so, like stated before just let out some clutch and drop one or maybe two gears and repeat. What I hate is when your slowing down and not stopping and don't get first right away...

Its been A while since I have been on here so I might have missed this kind of post, but I am scrapping my exhaust now and would like to know what scrapes in what order before I drag parts that I shouldn't. First goes your feelers then exhaust then? Also I am unfortunately going to have to get...

What up man, just seen your post on my wall. I usually disappear for a while when the know-it-all's come out and I come back later :) Maybe I can get back in the habit of checking this every day again.

Yeah, I went a few years without riding and when I bought the 8 there is a 50/50 shot for any biker waving back apposed to a 95% a few years ago. I also give them the salute if they are staring at me. This is dumb and reckless but I have got in the habit of passing them on the rear. Sometimes it...

Well I will just leave it at that for him. Maybe mention 500 miles or so but definitely not after every ride. He will wash it once a week so I am guessing he will do it every 200-300 since I told him when it gets wet. Is it bad my Honda has 38000 miles and I don't remember ever lubing the chain...

my buddy bought a Honda 250 and the dealer told him to lube his chain after every ride. He ask if that was right so I told him whenever it gets wet for every thousand miles should be fine. how often do you guys lube your chain?

I hear ya. I won't be getting rid of mine any time soon. It never hurts to have a few bikes. I will sell the interceptor but not this one. What I am getting at by this new post is if I dump money into this bike, will it give me my moneys worth of enjoyment. I am guessing fuel economy doesn't...

I just said it because I am a big dude and your explanation of catching your bike, I figured you could relate to bastards always calling your bike a scooter or making fun of how big you look on it. One guy put a pic of someone riding one of those pocket bikes on my tool box to make fun of me.

Was it worth it? What's your gains HP/tq/mpg? What do you have invested in parts? Did it give you any problems (starting, missing, idling etc) I am saving up to buy a zx14 and people want me to put money in performance for this fz8. I like it the way it is and think moding the bike will only...

Hahahaha! I was filling up at the station and a truck pulled in and what looked like a dad, daughter, and daughter's boyfriend got out. I heard the boy say what's that on his helmet. I said its a camera. The dad walked up and asked about the bike and I looked at the boy and the smart ass said...
