Re: Bad Jacket Frank Thomas
Hi There Jason! sorry to hear about the bad wear of your jacket - back here in South Africa, to me in any case, the brand is unknown, but will remember the name. Hope your new edition lives up to it's reputation. I recently bought a textile jacket by Spirit, also has it's detachable inner linnings x...

Re: Pix of my FZR
Yep, Petcock Switch - been having a lot of rain our way and didn't want to burn the tar with the new tyres just fitted, but seems like we may have a weekend of sunshine, in which case those new Metzlers will be working overtime!

Thanks Muscrap - we're experiencing much rain at the moment, with no let up forcast for the next few days/weeks - desperately wanted to burn her a little though, but I guess I must wait patiently!
Thanks all the same!

Re: Changing and mounting front/rear tires... any tips?
Post topic kinda says it all so no long winded posts as I often am guilty of. Going with stock size pirelli sport tourings. Taking them off personally and taking old ones to shop for swap and balancing. As far as bearings, brakes etc is there anything I should be aware of since this will be my firs...

Re: Pix of my FZR
Yeah, I love it! I wanted a current liter bike but I just don't 'fit' that bike. I'm not fat and only 6' tall. But I just don't fit the current bikes. To me the FZR 1000 is almost a timeless bike. :) Some guys dont fit some bikes and visa versa - I go with you on this one - I've tried many and just...

Still waiting for my smoked screen, but since colored the end caps on the bars, with new grips - soon she'll be looking close to new! http://fzronline.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=27166&width=150&height=113 http://fzronline.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem...

Re: Members meet, Pics...56k warning!
Some stunning convertions guys! Love to get some FZR riders out in my dark side of the world together for a ride, but that's not likely, as I stay in the most southern tip of Africa, where we surf the waves more than the highways - best of luck guys and ride safe!

Re: Pix of my FZR
Very nice Mike! She's a beauty. I noticed Yamaha changed the front brake calipers and mounts. Never knew that. I hear ya Camala. Although I'd pity the fool trying to steal it. It would make great entertainment though . "great entertainment...." - I like your track of thought! :Kick I've ordered a s...
