I am looking for a group of riders to chill out with a couple weekends a month and ride to random places. Had a small group of riders locally, but we have broke up and now I ride solo most of the time.
So, if any of you are close and want to go for a ride, hit me back here. We can trade info...
I have been researching ways to black out some of the silver parts on my Gen1 and was settled on getting it powder coated. Then I talked to a friend who owns a Gen1 Bee. He told me to look at Rust-Oleum's engine enamel that is good up to 500°F. I bought a can, $8 at your local hardware store...
Thanks to Pjspin, I have received and installed a slightly used M4 Slip-On and I must say I am impressed at the looks, sound and quality of this exhaust. This has to be one of the best slip-ons for a gen1 on the market.
Added some pictures, including one for a side by side comparison to the...
Below is the rough draft of my route from Florida to Pennsylvania. This is not set in stone. Going back to where I grew up to visit some old friends and thought I would make the trip on my motorcycle.

Lets start @ the beginning.
While on vacation in the mountains I got a little to brave and stupid at the same time. I tried a turn around on a steep incline and laid the bike down. I used every muscle in my body to let it down as slow as I could. Just a few scratches on the mirror and bar end...
Was tempted to try this out, but before I spend the $20 I thought I would see if anyone has used this before or knows someone who has.
Throttle Control for Street Bikes or Sportbikes
Looking for an inexpensive cruise/throttle control before I head to the mountains.
I did a brief forum search for posts related to gas, but didn't find anything.
I was just wondering what grade of gas everyone uses in their FZ1/sportbike? In my last two bikes I used nothing but premium gas. Now with the price of gas rising like it is, I was thinking of switching to...
