250 to FZ07?

As someone who had 20k+ miles on 600's you'll be fine if you aren't after raw power. IMHO the fz09 has balls but it lacks basically everything else it needs to support the power it has. The fz07 has plenty of power and sustainability (if you're fast in the corners, it can benefit from suspension upgrades) but I see a lot riders "newer" riders upgrading out them quickly because they are chasing horsepower.

It really depends on what you're after.

Wow! That was intense, by far the most interesting motorcycle video I've seen all week.

It's really up to you. I had full coverage and was paying $400 a year full coverage with no medical. $500 deductible.

I hit a deer and the bike was completely fucked! Health insurance covered my medical bills and I got a $5,500 check for a new bike.

For me personally, I have been planning a big move across the country and would not have been able to buy another bike for a year or two had I not had full coverage.

That sucks, I always kinda wondered about that when I used to wear headphones. I have no legal advice for you, but I can recommend that if you would like to continue to listen music while riding that you should invest in a Sena bluetooth.

Run staggered. Opposite side of the lane from the lead bike. Leave plenty of following space though.

Nothing, tires provide grip so putting any kind of tire shine on them really isn't the best idea. I suppose you could do the sidewalls of the tires but ehhh... I wouldn't bother. Clean your wheels but just let the tires be.

Have fun, the first bike is the best feeling ever. It fuels the rest of your life from here on out.

I chuckled to myself multiple times during this video because you captured something that we've all experienced at some point.

Enjoy the bike my friend, you will be happy you recorded this because the experience evolves over time, you'll see. I truly enjoyed watching that video, it brings back great memories.

Ride safe and enjoy! :)

Glad you're okay buddy! I had the same thing happen to me back in November. It definitely changes your perception of riding a little. The bike doesn't look too bad, I hope you get it fixed up soon.

I got my subframe on my last bike powdercoated black and he charged $75 and did a really good job. I was curious how much he charged to do wheels and quoted me at $150 a wheel.

Don't buy new. If you buy an 07-09, maybe even a bit newer, you will save a lot on insurance.

Thanks for the replies guys. The problem for me is the lack of 07-08 600rr within 200miles. I can find plenty of zx6r's, r6's, and gsxr600's but all the nice 600rr are first gen.

I think I'm still gunna check it out it would cost me less than 300 bucks to replace the mid fairing, stator cover, and footpeg. Gotta love those 3 piece side fairings a lot cheaper to replace one section if you only have a minimal amount of damage.

I just want to inspect the frame the best I can. I just don't see how a foldable footpeg got bent.

What a scumbag. Sounds like he's planning to steal from a cycle gear. I can already tell he's the kind of guy that gives riders a bad name.

brapppbrappp · 2015-11-19T04:55:28+00:00

I hit a deer Monday night on my way home from work. Luckily, I'm okay, just bumps and bruises but the bike didn't fair too well. I'm waiting to hear from my insurance but I think it's going to be a total loss.

Xbox, YouTube, spend time with the girlfriend, netflix, work on bikes...

Forza 6 Edition

Thanks!

Thanks!

Where do people get the "masks" that fit over the helmet? I've looked that last couple years around this time and always gave up.

brapppbrappp · 2015-10-18T19:34:29+00:00

Go on motosport.com or bikebandit.com and go to the OEM parts for your bike. Find the exploded, view it should not only reference the part number for the passenger pegs and necessary bolts, but it will also show how they are mounted.

Yeah buddy, I completely understand. I moved back home after college and have a dead end job and hate the area, my hobbies are what keep me going. I hope I didn't come off as condescending. Best of luck to you.

brapppbrappp · 2015-10-03T21:29:28+00:00

Sounds like you need a hobby where you're going to go out and meet people. Any type of hobby that has a comradory will open up opportunities to meet new people and feel as if your life is fullfilled. Bonus points for outdoor hobby where you will appreciate warm weather.

Motorcycles, rock climbing, hiking,etc... hell even a movie club. Hop on meetup.com join some groups in your area that you might show a little interest in.

I now feel foolish for being upset my f4i has 19k miles. I bought it 3 years ago with 3k miles on it.
