My main problem is that the FZ has always been a high performance four cylinder. While the 10 made sense as an FZ; the 09, 07 and 03 really do not belong to that family. It's better to make it a worldwide brand, IMO.
New Pilot Road tire available starting 2018! Michelin decided to drop the Pilot from the Pilot Road series and now are calling them just plain ol' Road.
This is the Michelin Road 5:

I just picked up a pair of these for the VFR after finding out Bridgestone was offering a sweet $70/pair rebate on them in October. They are getting on towards 7 years old now but Bridgestone keeps producing them and my set is from mid-2016.
I imagine these will only go on the bike come late...

That was a tense race. Dovi showed great patience and racecraft and the championship is wide open again.
I have to admit that I was a bit bummed about Lorenzo not getting his first win but he tried his best and did well not to crash out after that enormous slide at the final turn. Dovi got it...
I was just thinking that yesterday as I went for a little fun jaunt after finishing my errands. Everything was just working well together and it felt great!
Glad to hear you're having good success with the Shinkos. The climate you ride in and rate at which you go through tires makes these a perfect choice, IMO.
Hey Chameleon, sorry to hear about the accident. I'm glad you're ok but please make sure you are taking good care of your head after the concussion.
Good luck putting your bike back together, hopefully you can find the parts you need quickly.
I watched 2 and 3 last night. Pretty dull at the start but I can hardly blame them for that one. The last few laps were quite exciting, especially watching that Syahrin catching the front 3 hand over fist out of nowhere.
All the championships are still undecided at this point -- even Mir hasn't...
Crazy qualifying! Both KTM riders into Q2 and Rossi trying slicks and getting nowhere. Incredible that Marc went out and made a pole lap on wet tires despite two huge saves. He came in for slicks then abandoned the idea with no time left to go back out on wets.
