I'm going on a bit over a thousand miles using Mobil 1 synthetic, this is what I'v found..... Shifting is silky smooth, it clicks into gear with the slightest urge, except for from neutral into first at a stop. this is standard on almost every bike made period. However rowing through the...

We'v all got the FZ1 and are enjoying them, but I'm thinking sometimes that I wish I also had a cruiser bike, or even as the only bike I had. I'v had around 50 different bikes in my lifetime 57 years, so I doubt the good O'l FZ will be the last. What big cruiser rings your chimes?? My list...

I know we'v all been on pins and needles waiting to get some riding time in this year. It seemed a relentless snow-packed winter, especially hitting the North East with un-relenting snow and cold. I know, you mid-westerners just get no respect, a hardy bunch, but soon everybody will have dry...

Well I got around to stripping my wheels, and I'm glad I did for one, the powdercoat had tiny speck/chips that allower incursions of water thuss the very beginings of oxidation and pre-pitting. It was easy enough to touch it up with fine emery cloth to smooth out the areas in question. Now I'll...

I'v been riding for a long while, decade's. I'v recently gotten myself a Fulmar modular helmet, and while its so convienient, there are drawbacks to it. The major complaint is that it's just plain wind/noisy. A neck gaitor may remedy that a bit, but with warmer temps just around the next...
