Hey guys, as some have seen I need to replace the 2nd and 6th gear If any one has time, and the know how to tear down and rebuild a YZF600R motor, I'll gladly pay you for your time. The bike still runs so I can bring it to you. Added bonus if you have the chain tool. My chain is shot, and needs...

First, I'd like to say I've been away from the site fro a long time.... Work..... So that being said, I did a bit of work to my 04 Yzf600r over the winter. Runs great except for the 2nd gear 7k rpm where it seems liek the transmission stutters. Its onyl 2nd gear therefore i'm certain its the...

So i was wondering, what’s the etiquette if your riding along, and see some one else riding along, and you go "Jee, I’m just going to follow this other biker and have a impromptu ride". Generally speaking would this freak people out or what? I’ve rode behind some people, and ended up having a...

I rode to work, going down the bayview extension, all the way to the end (didn't know canary district was completely closed :S) so i made a right onto what ever street, and should have been paying more attention, as what i thought was garbage juice (you know the stuff that leaks out of the...

So i went to the dentist this morning, parked my bike in the proper area before the pole with the sign. I know I was on the right side, as i made sure I was. In my haste to get this dam tooth pulled (lots of pain) i didn't lock the handle bars. Some ****er actually moved my bike out of the way...

Saw this thought it was funny. Why the hell would you even stop if you had not insurance, suspended DL. Ahahahaha. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiDXda1WjrA

Has any one heard of these people? 2 guys with gear and "patches" and third with no markings. Riding like *******. Hey maybe popping wheelies in heavy traffic is a bad ****ing idea, then weave in and out of traffic. I had to slam on the brakes, to avoiud hitting the cage infront of me. Arrg...

So I did an oil change last week, the first one with out the added benefit of working at a shop. Wondering what people do with the used oil. Other then using it as lawn fertilizer. (Lol, get the reference?) I figured I would walk/ride to a couple of car shops and see if they would dispose of it...

i ****ing hate drive test. HATE THEM! I was 2 minutes late for my g1 exit, had to pay the fee again in full, i left an hour and a half before the test had about 10 min to spare, and because some one was arguing about why they should be able to do a road test with a expired license, my time...

So i just noticed this today, and posted in bike specific form. Some one told me to pull out the bolt, and clean the grommet. This sounds like good advice, but looking for a second opinion. Also, I'm not all the confident in wrenching with out supervision lol, I have my M2 exit test on monday...

So I've been looking around, and can't seem to find a solid answer on what oil or filter to use for my (my first oil change Bike has 35xxx K) first oil change on my 04 YZF600r. Of course the owners manual says yama lube and with our weather 10w-30, but says nothing at all for the filter. Can I...

So I'm going for my M test on the 2nd (at downsview), and my left rear turn signal has no "cap" or lens? Honestly, this does not impair the signal at all. The caps do nothing(at least on the left side). Just to be clear, my rear right indicator, is just L.E.D bulbs, with no plastic cover over...

I'm looking for a good water proof (not resistant) motorcycle cover. The one i have has no vapor barrier, and is just crap. I park on the street too, so nothing with motorcycle names on it, as i don't want to attract attention. What covers do you all have? (there was a post 2 years ago, but it...

I was wondering if there are any laws outlaying how old a bike passenger can be. Obviously I’m not going to strap my 6 month old son onto my bike lol. Other then common sense, would be interested to hear when some of you with kids, have taken them on a ride. Or do you just avoid the whole...

NOOOO I jsut foudn out C-Q-B is closing. The best ball field in the city. This saddens me greatly(Q_Q). Any one else into paintball and tactics? Know any other good fields close by? Ride and paintball? Don't know what order that would be in. Its one thing goingt o the range and shooting targets...

Ok as the title suggests, night ride. I'm not talking about 10 am night ride either, I mean NIGHT ride, err well morning actually I guess, like 1am. I have a nagging wife (and i guess it's warranted as if she didn't nag I would ride all day long) and a 6 month old son at home. Those of you who...

Hey every one. I've been doing a little bit of research, and find so much conflicting information, regarding the infamous Yamaha second gear slip issue. Just wondering if any one has had this happen to them. Did Yamaha ever fix the issue? Are all 600's affected by this curse. Was it only for a...

I'm going to go look at a 2004 YZF thundercat tomorrow. I was just talking to the seller on the phone, and was advised that the "hazard" lights don't work (both signals flashing). I am wondering if this will cause the bike to fail the safety inspection, and if so, is it a hard/expensive fix...

Ok so I found an R6 that I want. A little older, but money makes the world go round, and i don't have a lot of it. Obviously I have not yet bought the bike, I've been attempting to get insurance quotes. The only place that’s willing to even look at me is primmum (through T.D) That being said...
