Ever notice the black metal (bolt heads, brake line fittings, etc.) on our bikes tend to turn drab green or whitish? I like mine BLACK like my.. I found a great product for restoring that new appearance, the Birchwood/Casey gloss black pen. It's like a Sharpie on steroids. They sell them at...

55 and can't stop tinkering with my red '08. I get almost as much satisfaction from working on it as I do riding.

I could lower your existing pegs for you, less cramping. especially easy as you live here in minnesota.

Great deal on RoadSmart 1 at Motorcycle Superstore under $200 for both!

Sorry to hear that, makes me wonder how I would feel if I went to the shed and saw bikes missing, I'm beefing up the locks today! Maybe you could post the frame & engine serial #'s?

Wow! Are FZ1's still one of the coolest looking bikes out there or what? Just something about 'em. :tup:

Lowered pegs & added Grip Puppies My big hands love the Grip Puppies & with the lowered pegs I'm ready for a long father's day ride! http://www.998cc.org/forum/gen-ii-mods/18293-lowered-my-pegs.html

I know a lot of you change the rearsets to raise the pegs for cornering clearance but for me at my age the knee-dragging ship has sailed. I wanted more long ride comfort. I know you can get lowered pegs but I'm too cheap to go that route so I did some mods to the stockers. I used a dremel with a...

Finally got tired of the RoadRunner's "meep meep" horn and put in the Wolo BadBoy. Weather was crappy so I might as well tinker if I can't ride. The Stebel Mini Nautilus is supposedly better (louder) and is virtually the same unit. I've used both and can't tell them apart other than the Wolo is...

Unique spreader pliers We all have several pliers for squeezing things together but I needed a pliers to spread things apart. I finally found one! The Proto Tools Blackhawk PT-1266. It's great for popping clips, getting hoses off fittings, anything that needs to be spread apart. Once I got it I...

I installed their product in my '08 and after a week a section of the LED's quit working. A phone call got immediate response and I had another unit in 4 days! It's easy to tell when people actually care about their customers. Sure wish the majority of congress was that way! :nana:

Forget Gold & Silver... the new precious metal investments: brass & lead! :shoot:

Why is loudly punching holes thru paper so stinkin' addictive? Maybe ask Piers Morgan?

Just picked this up since I got my CCP, it will be a nice addition to my M&P 9. Kicks like a miniature mule but I had to practice a few hundred rounds before I would take it out in public. I sure hope & pray that the range is the only place I will ever need to use it. Next accessory for the gun...
