I sat on a silver R1 about three days ago. I was for sale so I figured it was ok in that situation. It felt pretty comfortable. I won't be riding anything like that for a long long time though.

not a rep, just a fan of good quality goods at a fair price. a mate has a pair and i'm jealous. as soon as the misses isn't watching i'll order some. they look better than draggin' jeans. draggin' are for oldies not trendies.

as for the dvd. umm slightly illegal to copy so its a real copy. really it is. just found out that i can burn certain material. its VERY similar to x-factor moving violations or urban assualt. rrp 45 bucks.
its mad bastards doing stunts and stuff for about 45 min

can take photos of gloves or you can just have them. they are just sitting there ready for some lovin cost me 189 new. i'll take some photo's and upload into my gallery

Re: off topic/ place to chat

i think ill spend the extra 50 and get the new jeans out, they pretty nice looking, and they come in blue as well

as for the gloves, like i said i want the best protection out there, are these going to deliver that? or am i going to be up for $4369895726 for a good pair?

Seat cowls... I'm wondering do they work as a cover, as in a plate of plastic to cover the passenger seat? Or do you have take out the passenger seat and then replace it with the cowl?

Cowls can work either way, depending on the bike. On bikes with "banana seats" the cowl just covers the passenger seat. On bikes with separate rear seats, the cowl takes the place of the passenger seat.

Thanks. Yeah, had to guess, I saw some cowls for the old F2/F3, but none for the new '04 F4i.

the dvd's are not stolen. i can give you a copy from mine. the gloves are in ok condition and are worth about 150 bucks new. My replacements cost 380. If you want basic cheap, $60 or for good quality basic $130 or for good quality and top of the line in protection $300-$400
my understanding of a hugger is the rear wheel cover from the swing arm over to almost the 'mudflap'

hey z. my 954 cover bolts in and replaces the pilion seat but my old gixer used the lock mechanism and i lost it one day! lock mech was easier to do but cost me alot to replace it once i lost it due to a faulty lock closer

yes but you can appreciate the quality. my new ones feel so much better and give me freedom in the fingers. nothing worse than cramped digits on a long ride

under the 954 i get tools, lock, chain, phone, wallet and a set of wets if need be. but under the old gixer i got all that plus a first aid kit
