Fortunately I live very close to on ramp of the freeway, but that doesn't give me much time to warm up the engine. I know these bikes are built Yammie tough. How tough is that? I want it to last. I had a Yamaha outboard and the manual says to warm it up for five minutes and people laughed at...

I was researching track days in my area. I see there are some coming up this summer, but they are pretty expensive. Has anyone gone to them and if so did you have a good time? It sounds like it would be great. Get to ride around the track and practice skills. Have some instruction. What do...

It comes on sometimes for 1-5 minutes, I have no idea why. Plenty of oil. What could use this. It happened today while riding down the highway when I was good and warmed up, I had been riding for about an hour straight in 80 degree weather so that's not it, is this something I should worry about?

I'm impressed, sometime I want a full fairing sport bike, but every time I ride one, nothing short of an r1 impresses me. I know almost nothing, but I do love how there is so much pull all across the rpm range. I rode a ninja zx6rr today and while I loved the looks and the riding position...

Ok, so I went today to wash, clean and lube the chain and then do my first oil change. At first while doing the oil change, I thought the manual was referring to the drain bolt as being on the right side. Near the oil view hole, just in front, there are a couple of bolts. One is labelled 7...

I'm under the noob impression I have basically a sport bike that has a more upright riding position and the fairings removed. Is this correct? Why are the benefits of a naked bike? I can see the benefits of the upright riding position. What about the lack of fairings? This is the only bike I...

So, I've been hiding for two weeks now and waiting for a nice day so tomorrow is supposed to be 62 and sunny so I think I will go to the coast. It is an hour and a half away, and then drive about an hour north. It's really windy, hilly and scenic. I hope I'm up to it. I really need practice...

What did you ladies start riding? I am new myself, girlfriend wants a bike, I was thinking a ninja 250 or 500. She does want to look cool. What did you all start out on and what do you think would be best?

I don't think I understand motorcycle engines. I went to the Harley dealership to see what they were all about and sat on a good looking 750cc. The salesman said I didn't want it, it was like a scooter and couldn't go past 60. Wtf? 750 isn't that much smaller than my engine. I had to start...

I have noticed two things on my first two days of riding. Except how much more fun it is than I even thought it would be. I have noticed that other cyclists are very friendly and wave, for the most part, and Cars seem to be trying to race me, or burn me, or pass me even when I am going...

Hi, I have only ever ridden a bike once, a 250 dirt bike through the bamboo in Haleiwa. Well, I have been wanting a motorcycle for a long time now and I finally pulled the trigger. What I want to be able to do eventually is: Ride around town Ride for fun Take day trips with my camera...
