    Pirellis on a cold day

    It's going to be 55-60 degrees this weekend. I want to take the 390 out to the kart track to test out the new suspension. Anyone know how the pirelli sc1 / sc2 will do at those temps? I'm worried about shredding them

    Rear Shock upgrade

    Hi Just carried out the Yamaha Yzf R6 rear shock upgrade on my Rc after reading about the possibility of it fitting on this forum.

    Cup suspension vs Street suspension

    I guess one of the biggest discrepancies is the difference in suspension between the Cup RC390 and the Street RC390.

    Motorcycle USA head to head small bike review

    2015 Entry-Level Sportbike Shootout - Motorcycle USA The KTM is actually heavier than the Honda, although far better. Strange thing I'm noticing in all these reviews is that the Yamaha R3 seems to be all over the place depending on who reviewed it. Some say the brakes and suspension are...

    Exhaust, rear shock

    By now I am sure most of you have seen this: 403 Forbidden Although it kills it on the dyno, our ride finishes a disappointing third based on the reviewer's view of weak suspension (ostensibly caused by the position of the exhaust muffler so close to the rear shock, creating a heat sink - as...
