    Hello from Central VA

    I was pretty set on getting an R3 when they arrive but some research leads me to believe the FZ-07 might be the addition. Took a hard look at the dealer today and am just waiting for a demo ride after the current storm goes away.

    How to improve your helmet sun shade

    Squeaky front brake

    Any obvious ideas as to what I can do about my squeaky front brake - only does it at low speed. Also my ABS kicks in on the back wheel when I downshift hard (locking the wheel momentarily) ... which then means if I need to apply back brake the pedal is hard as rock!

    Shifting from 2nd to 3rd troublesome

    So I've done about 1000 km's on my MT-07 and I've noticed the same problem with it as I did on the test-ride bike. Here's the deal: When I accelerate medium hard (revving until about 7000rpm before shifting), I never get the 3rd gear to engage without giving some throttle-help while shifting...
