Okay, weird riding experience tonight. It's due to rain tonight and tomorrow
morning, so I figured I'd get a good ride in to prevent withdrawals. Got
down to one of my favorite spots just after sunset. Beautiful state park on
the water, 79 degrees and very little wind. In short, ...

Lately when I roll on the throttle quickly, at times the engine seems to
sputter then respond. What could cause this?

There are times in life when we must cast aside emotionalism and
embrace pragmatism.  Some call it "growing up," though I find that a
bit vulgar: without nurturing our inner child, none of us would own
absurdities such as motorcycles.

Is this bike worth the price, time, fun, risk?
Apparantly, this bike was owned by a guy who is now 34-35 years old.  He
bought the bike 4.5 years ago, then 4 years ago he had a stroke and couldn't
ride it.  I beleive it was HIM who dropped it but I am not sure.

I need to know if any one can get me a Diagram of a Suzuki GSX-R motor 1995
so that i can find my alternator. As you can see by my name i'm a dummie
when it comes to motorcycles, but i'm trying to learn.
Any help would be appreciated.

I just bought an Avon Azaro Sport AV39 front tire for my blade for $1 on
ebay(haha yes brand new, and only $10 shipping=$11 steal). Anyone know a good
website I can get the matching rear from? Also, does anyone else run Avons?
Tell me what you think about them.  If anyone else here ...

I was riding last night with my girlfriend- she just got a new SV650- when
she decided to really open it up and see what it's made of. I was hiding
behind my windscreen and fairing because it was a bit cold, when I noticed a

Just picked up my 1000rr and need a tank bag or seat storage. Anyone see
anything for the plastic tank?
Thanks

Talk about a slippery seat on the way home. Put on the brakes and slide into
the tank...ouch...
I washed it with some dish soap and it is much less slippery, but still not
back to normal.

I've been holding out posting about the "convertabars" I ordered for
my GSXR, just in case they were a $300 rip-off. Today, on my door step
was a neat little package. Opened it up to find a very professional
kit with both written/illustrated  instructions and a CD installation

My schedule has kept me off of my bikes for a little while now and
though life is full of good stuff, I was missing a bit of adventure.  On
a flight to CO a couple of weeks ago, I was looking out the window as we
flew over the Sierra and I saw a lot of snow in the high country.  ...

Just purchased an 04 Honda CBR600RR couple days ago. Put about 200
miles on it this Sunday, brought it home and did a filter and oil
change.  Got everything verified and tightened back up.  Took it out
around the block, upon return to my driveway it is making a tick

So I see on the Faster web site the movie is showing in Sacramento 4/29 and
4/30 at RPM Karting.  I phoned RPM and the folks I talked to didn't know much
about it.  Anybody know cost and show times?
