    Anyone used a Shinko tire before ?

    The Ravens served me very well...until I binned the Busa in October. At the time I crashed, I had over 10K on them and they still had at least another 2K left. Shinko bought out Yokohama about 8 years ago. I've written quite a bit about them in other threads...try a search and you should find...

    '02 Silver Owners

    The day before Halloween I took a nasty spill on my '05 Red and Black Busa. The bike was totalled by my insurance company. I loved my bike and can't imagine riding anything but a busa. I've been looking over all sorts of classified ads looking to replace my '05. I've always thought the 02 silver...

    I'm with Rcktman on this one. Sucks you got busted, but that's the price you pay. And I too live in AZ. I don't understand the socialist/communist replies. This is a republican state.

    Carbon Fiber Front Fender

    Thanks Charles and Daniel. Both look great. Charles, how long would it take to get the Magical Racing fender from Japan? I checked out MR's website and saw they also carry the same type of fender in standard ABS plastic for about $100 less. I might go that route since I'm thinking of painting...

    Carbon Fiber Front Fender

    I've seen a few busas with the CF front fender and think it looks really nice. Where can i find a vendor who sells them. I'm looking for the smaller gixxer style fender. Thanks!

    Vegas Baby!

    I am loving the dual exhaust on the GSXRs!  Only down side is added weight.

    Probably cheaper, but I don't know of anyone who's tried 'em.

    update on shinko tires performance

    I've been running the Ravens (front and rear) on my busa since about 8k. I'm just over 13k now. I'd guess that I've got at least another 2k before I will be buying another set. And for you skeptics, please stay that way. I don't want RideNow selling too many sets of these tires...LOL

    Luggage options

    Thanks folks... The Ventura System seems like the way to go, but I'm balking at the $340 price tag. And it doesn't lock. Oh well, I'll figure something out...

    Moments in history

    The shroud of Turin was examined at the University of Arizona radiocarbon lab by one of my professors while I was an undergrad there. I was always interested in biblical archaeology as well, but didn't catch the show on the spear. I imagine that the wood could be dated, though? Did they mention...
