nice! I really wish i had these when i lowsided for the first time a week ago and tore up my legs... Definitely my next purchase. Along with some fz6 plastics haha

Can you do the CO mod on a 2004? If so i'd recommend it. It made a difference when i put an exhaust on my bike.

Hey man, I ran into the same problem so i got a pair of jardine slip ons. i think they are for atvs. Mt buddy gave them to me but you can find them cheap online. what i'm getting at is find the cheapest set of cans you can and only hook one up. i bought some big hose clamps to hold on the cans...

i was ready to say it!!!! i can keep it up until second is almost wound out. I'm talking 1 o'clock wheels!

I can power wheelie in 1st and clutch it up in 2nd allll day. i'm 6'2" 200lbs It's fun but can get a little scary. with practice clutching is much better!

I'm surprised no one only wears one earbud. I rock one ear bud with pandora everywhere i go. 2 earbuds on a long trip. technically i'm only allowed one earbud in New york State.... I'm moving to CO!(not for the motorcycle laws though) hahaha I like to hear my exhaust and engine noise. it is...

I have some figures but keep in mind i ride hard all the time as i don't commute with my bike. my average trips are 50-100 miles though. stock my 2007 was getting around 46-49 mpg. now i have an aftermarket exhaust, down one tooth in the front, and did the CO mod(+19) and my mpg are now...

So this is made by Yamaha? How does it compare to the stock seat? Thanks, Rod

24! Been riding for almost 9 years. Love my FZ and i've ridden newer 1000cc sport bikes.

Me too! Confused about how i literally walked away from this one but i'll take it! I live in Boston which is a small town south of Hamburg. I work in Lackawanna though off of Rt 5 so i was making that trip every day with the bike especially thanks to this kind of season that we've had! No...

Glad your okay. Where abouts in buffalo are you? I'm in Tonawanda.

I think the 2006 and older bikes rev lower. My 2007 hits 14k (every time i ride it!) The motor seems really solid. Sometimes it amazes me.

Are you looking for speed? From my personal experience an exhaust and CO mod took 3 tenths off my 1/8 mile time and i definitely felt a difference. -1 on the front sprocket was cool too. Makes wheelies a lot easier. the front sprocket only took 0.15 secs off the 1/8th but makes driving...

i rigged up an exhaust with some Jardine cans my buddy gave me. I think they sound great. The entire project cost me $28 since the cans were free..
