    Sport Tires

    You should shoot down to north ga, and ride Blood mountain hwy (hwy 129), hwy 180, and 60 South when you come down. It's not but a few hours or less from where it sounds like your headed. If you like the curves, then you'll love riding the North GA mountains. Just youtube "Blood Mountain...

    Looking for Riders!

    I ride in northeast GA dude! I don't know where your from but I have some of the best roads to ride in the country right up the street from my girlfriends house. I just rode with some guys from Chatanooga last weekend. Where at do you live?

    So you're sayin that I will also be needing the more expensive ones also, because I have a Gen II. And I think it has the 190 on the back.

    Torn between 2 slip ONs any input would be great

    here are some pics of my akrapovic Hope this helps you make your decision! Let me know what you think? The yoshi is a great choice as well. The akrapovic isn't quiet by any means, and weighs like 5lbs which is nuts compared to the 25lb stock bazooka cannon!! LOL I dont know how to post the...

    Sport Tires

    VA Rider, you are an animal!! Enough Said. Those pics are sick............. I still have almost an inch on each side of my tires. They are stock and I don't feel that confident on them and I have only been riding for 3 months. But nice pics. I'm at 2400 miles on my bike and about ready to...

    Moving to a FZ1 TE perhaps

    Compared to the R1 the FZ1 is a dream as far as comfort in concerned. I have an 08' and I love it. I can ride all day long and not get uncomfortable. The R1 is a great bike, my brother has one, an 05' I think, but when we ride together, he has to stop and rest/ stretch way before I feel the...

    I removed the whole fender. Put in the integrated clear LED tail light kit and then realized I had nothing to mount my plate to. lol

    Wanted to see if I posted the pics properly

    Thanks NJFZ1, that yoshi looks great man. I was torn between your yoshi and the akrapovic. I also appreciate the advice on the cops. So far they havent messed with me, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. I guess I need to get around to doing it, it's just I only get to ride on the...

    Wanted to see if I posted the pics properly

    Could you guys check on my profile and see if the pics posted of my bike? I posted some, and then uploaded a pic from my iphone that I took last weekend after installing my Akrapovic slip-on. I'm somewhat new to the forum, and am still learning the functionality of the site. If they...

    So, the bike fell over.

    That exact same thing happened to me man, I was fortunate enough to see the kickstand sunk into the pavement about an inch deep. Had it been another 10 or 20 min, I would be out with the duct tape and sand paper. Really sorry to hear about that VA_rider. That blows man.

    I would love to see what kind of maps you have gotten a hold of. I have the akrapovic slip on that I am installing this afternoon and all the maps I have for the PCIII are the ones from there website. If you have anything other than that, I would be very interested. : ) Thanks!!

    va_rider What aftermarket tires do you recommend? I'm sure you've been through a ton over the years? I saw in an earlier post you mentioned that stock tires are nowhere close to getting the full potential of the bike. I don't want to lay down my bike on a heavy turn because I have stock tires...

    sorry, had to comment

    Not sure what your intentions for this video are. Are you meaning that the exhaust is a waste of money because of the brand, that maybe I should have went with something cheaper? The Carbon fiber goes with the granite grey 08 FZ1 like Super goes on Glue. The price I paid for the exhaust was...
