    What was your close 2nd choice to the FZ8?

    Ducati monster. I nearly got myself the 796 but couldn't justify spending that much money on a bike that is so expensive to maintain. I still think it's the sexiest bike ever designed though! Also the husqvarna nuda 900r... Apparently I have weird taste :P

    Fz8 battery?

    Anyone know what kind of battery the FZ8 uses? I know nothing about batteries and thought I'd start here before trying to find the info online. I'm away for work at the moment (middle of the desert in the Northern territory of Australia - so boring out here!), and want to get mine replaced so...

    Recording your Rides

    Filmed just about every ride since getting the camera too.

    Recording your Rides

    I have a gopro hero2 and am pretty damn happy with it. I like the chest mount the best so far because you can see everything your hands get up to while you're riding and still have a good view in front of the bike. I should really cover up my speedo though ;) Can you guys recommend any movie...

    Is there another bike you've been lusting after?

    There is a lot of nice bikes in this thread! One of these rode past me yesterday while I was walking on the side of the road. It sounded amazing, not over-the-top loud, but just a very sexy note. Ducati is Italian for sex, yeah?

    Is there another bike you've been lusting after?

    I'm not into Harley's much but out of all of them I kinda like the '48' is that part of the sportster range? That blackbird would be pretty cool also. Can't take my eyes off this thing though... It's ugly I know, but the kind of ugly where you just know she fucks like a pornstar ;)

    Is there another bike you've been lusting after?

    I have a confession to make, I have a thing for the Husqvarna Nuda 900r. Please don't tell my FZ8. You guys been "checking out" any other rides?

    Good as new :-)

    Finally got the parts I needed after my little crash and Yamaha Australia raped my bank account, but she looks good as new! Might even leave the Yamaha badges off the tank shroud. Even though they cost me $30aus each, cheers Yamaha. Fuckers.

    Be carefull guys... FZ8 in the dirt.

    Yamaha Australia took their time, but I'm picking up all my new parts today! Today is a good day.

    Be carefull guys... FZ8 in the dirt.

    Decided to just buy the tank shroud through Yamaha, and get the rest repaired. I found a few decent auto paint repair places here that look like they do a good job. I didn't know they could fix scratched headlight lenses. Paint repairs and replacement tank shroud is still going to set me back...

    Man the black version would look seriously awesome with gold wheels. Even better if the gold exactly matched the forks. *light globe appears above my head*
