    In serach of a photo

    I'm searching for a photo that floated around the internet a while back.  It's a shot of a stationary roadside radar station that reads "199 mph". Anyone have that photo, or know where it is?  I always thought it was in this gallery, but I haven't seen it. Thanks.

    I just LOVE my insurance company

    Just reinstated my insurance for the spring. $152.00 for FULL COVERAGE, friends and neighbors. What a great rate. Clean record, married, 34 yrs old, own the house, have the car and house on the same policy.  Yes sir, life is good... Forgot to add that it's for 6 months.

    More wheelie pics

    Excellent. One of the best wheelies I've ever done was actually not terribly spectacular, but it stands out in my mind as the best. I was hard on the gas in first, and the front wheel came up about 3 inches and no more. It stayed there all the way through the RPM range, so it was supper long...

    AAAAARGH I wrecked my baby!

    Holy crap, it doesn't look THAT bad. How can that be totaled? Just how the heck much are forks, triples, etc...???

    Ok guys, help me out here...

    Hey guys, long time, no talk. The new board looks very good. Here's the deal:  I also happen to own a Honda CR500, and it's a ground-pounding, fire-breathing s.o.b.  But it's NOT the same as a Hayabusa.  (Obviously) Over on the CR500 message board, there are one or two guys that claim that...

    Front brakes squeak a little

    Hey all, Glad to see all is back. I've got a 2002 Busa with 1,450 miles on it.  In the last 50 miles or so, the front brakes like to squeak some when I apply them. It's not obnoxiously bad, but is definately there. I do not ride hard, nor do I ride very often.  Possibly a bit of surface rust...

    Touring bike?

    I took tomorrow off, and am heading up north into South Dakota for my first road trip. 250 miles each way. No record setter, but I'll let you know my thoughts after I'm back.

    Almost dropped my bike

    That's exactly how mine went down. Oh, the shame. If Suzuki were to change anything to the '03 bikes, they ought to modify the sidestand stopper so the stand will travel forward just a few more degrees.

    Almost dropped my bike

    You're either really lucky, or really strong, or both. Mine actually made contact with the concrete. How much fuel was in the tank. Most likely the tank sensor just thought there was no fuel left in it, because it was all sideways in the tank. When I picked mine up, I let it sit about 5...

    Silver/blue 2002?

    Congrats on the pro-mo! I can't help you a whole lot with the metric/sase conversion, except to say that I've read that sometimes people get it wrong, and their mileage on the odometer is then wrong, so be aware. A little off-topic but my wife's been searching for a new vehicle, and I read...

    Running in

    Win43, you bonehead! Everyone knows the Silver is faster than that yucky black and blue. Quit trying to fill the poor guy with your Communist Propaganda.
