Comfort, handeling, Speed and H.P. More than the Vmax in all catagories, but I still Love the max as well and split my riding about 50/50 this season with a lilttle trail riding put in for good measure.

No offence, but if you have "Time" to "Lay it down" then you have time to get on the binders, or swerve, It takes a lot less time to swerve than lay it down. Now if youo layed it down to avoid or reduce, how do you know that the brakes could not have stopped you in that distance if you did...

Could just be me, but I have always been able to stop a bike quicker with the rubber on the ground than the metal on the ground. Some reason the rubber has better stopping abilities than the metal. I also have been able to swerve faster than I can stop if that is necessary.

Ok, First it is me in the Hat in the picture. I did not ride it home becouse in that little truck there was only enought room for the two of us, and I did not have room for riding gear. Also it was cold and raining up here in the north. Also did not have it registered and insured until I got...

Well, Sold my 1995 Vmax with 35,000 miles and turned around and purchased a 1998 with 17,000 miles. Had to make a road trip to get it. Upstate New York to North Carolina. Trip total milage was 1,600 and trip time total was 27 hours. That included time to drop off a bike I took down with me...

I have noticed over the years from my own experience, and then especially from teaching riding programs that target fixation when riding is a problem. Now I am not talking just about looking at the ditch or tree and hitting it. I am mainly speaking of watching other riders. One of the...

Now who would sling mud in a forum?

I like this board, (Except for the dark colors used) it is a lot like the FZ1 Board except they actually use thiers. Always a bunch of folks hanging out there. It would be nice if the yahoo folks came over here.

Sean How about your e-mail, would like to send you some pics.

They let you run in jeans?

I just posted and rememberd This post from this summer, So again last class of the year here on the East Coast is October 14th, anyone who is interested contact me, maybe we can even get a VMOA Discount!

This year I became an instructor for the Lee Parks Total Control Advanced Riding clinic, BEST THING I EVER DID! I already teach MSF street and Dirt as well as ATV Classes (Aside from my full time job) teaching is a hobby and I enjoy it. There is the last class of the season for Maryland (East...

I have talked before about a hitch and also had one made (That did not work out so well) it does not fit right but actually has a good design, just a little out of wack and also a little on the heavy side. If someone nearby could take this hitch and make one lighter that fits that would be...

1. Make sure that the title is clear and actually matches the Bike numbers. 2. Make sure the bike has not been down, look for any small marks in the frame that would give it away. Things that should not be there. 3. Certain mods are ok, If they added a fork brace, changed the seat or added...

If I had started out checking the ignition switch proable only a 20 minute fix, But like normal you start by checking the simple things first, Battery, Connections, fuses and so on. Taking the switch apart involves removing the right side scoop, Plastic cover for radiator hoses (Slides off)...

Went out last night to start the Vmax to ride out to teach MSF and I turned the Key on and Nothing! No lights, No Nothing! Just ride the bike home Sunday from a class in Rome NY, put about 200 miles over the weekend, parked it Sunday afternoon and have been riding the FZ1. So I took the FZ1 to...

I am in full support!

Well I bought a 2006 FZ1 and I Love it. It IS NOT a Vmax and that is why I love it. I have both and ride both. They are different. If I only liked the max there would be no excitement in riding other bikes. I like the differences and will be riding both bikes as much as work allows!
