How's things CB? Loco, aka LocoFZ1, just moved back and should be tearing up the tarmac sometime in spring. Wait to you see his ride :eek5: I've never been to the states but Loco and a few others have told me I gotta make it there sometime. We'll see :sinister: When are some of you guys...

Winter Blues? Twistybutt - Japan style - almost Nothing better than a ride report when winter hits, right? Hope this helps the snowbound :-) Mid June, 2011 Had planned a 800km day of smooth twisties but things kinda went sideways and we called it quits at @500km, well 2 of us did :) Ready for...

Will this do? :yes:

Guess I'll be needing a mask then :-D

Congratulations Lytehouse! Great colors & shot

Woo-Hoo:yes: Thanx for the votes all. When I first parked the bike for the shot, the water was a fair bit higher but surprisingly it was falling with the sun. All along the coastline, as well as that whole harborside area has sunk around a metre so the disappearing water was actually the...

Same here. Waste of however few $. Without freeing up the exhaust and induction and adding a decent fueling controller, totally unecessary. If you disconnect the O2 from the fueling equation, it will no longer micro adjust for atmospheric conditions at low rpm. Can't remember the exact rpm...

You need a particularly sensitive butt dyno to get it anywhere near close. Besides, modifying on your own without a dyno and accurate AFR analysis is time consuming, hit and miss and could be damaging to your engine. I think DEATH4of4 now has enough maps to keep him occupied. On that...

Congrats Ramenx :cheers: I claim second prize and the rights to spray you down with victory drinks :yes: Great pic btw

A friend had one on his 08 R1 and loved it. Almost zero chain maintenance and a constant smooth and quiet ride. The only problem he had was getting it dialed in to the correct flow but once done it was set and forget. I thought he'd end up with oil everywhere and a slippery rear tyre but...

Glad to hear you got a Scorpion and am also looking forward to the review. Just a heads up: ICON helmets are produced by iCON and constructed by HJC. No, you won't find that written anywhere on the iCON helmets. Common practice these days with many manufacturers. I'm 12,000km into my...

Now using the Powercommander PCV with quickshifter for upshifts and it's a blast. Works as advertised.

As Hellgate said, it will fit plug-n-play on an 'o7. It's running just fine on mine and I'd say that DJ still has some PC3 stock to clear. :hook2: The biggest advantages with the PCV is size and PC interface/options. Size, it can be tucked into an unused pocket alongside the toolkit tray in...

Not much of a ride report but . . on my blog HERE

Previously had the PC3 and if you're on the fence between a PC3 & PC5, the size alone makes the PCV the better choice. On either side of the tool area under the rear seat, there are perfect pockets for the PCV and IM standing up not laying down in the tool tray like most do with the PC3. So...

Ok, tried it but no dice. There is a reviewed title on this page but the thread name/title is still the twistybutt one. Oh well, never mind, lesson learnt :hook2:

Thanx all. Was a good trip and certainly worth doing again. We're heading for the tsunami hit area next ride and I'll post a ride report for that when done, too. Should be some amazin pics from there But, I feel I kind of ripped you all off as the title says coast to coast twistybutt and well I...

A couple of days out & about - Japan Let's just start with this. . . JamesK bankin the big Tuna hard at Oma - Most northern point of Honshu :big_boss: DAY/Night? 1 JamesK had left early Saturday morning to rack up several hundred kms on his way to Niigata where we were to meet up. He'll...

Saw the new GT in the YSP dealer when I was in there signing up for the Yamaha Touring challenge. It had the optional ABS and looked pretty nice. Too bad about the power limiter :( Had a sold tag on it already though so it pushe the right buttons for someone. Speaking of power limiters, when...

For next month, a couple of travesties of photo quality V-due Super CB1300
