    What does a power commander do?

    What they said with the cautionary note that if you want to play with the maps you DO have the power to run incredibly rich or dangerously lean and you CAN cause some serious engine damage if you lean it out too far, and that’s not just short term, it can cause an issue yearrrrs later from a...

    Yamihoe went Down

    Yep, I jumped as soon as I knew there was no saving anything, I just didn’t quite jump soon enough and caught my right shin on the handle bar and it bent everything in half from there. I was quite irritated when I learned she only got a warning. -_-

    Yamihoe went Down

    It was the leg, my arms were unscathed and I actually had zero road rash after I flew over the suv and landed. Thank goodness I had all my normal gear on and my Arai left me without even a headache. It definitely could have been worse. I really do miss my little blue 6

    Yamihoe went Down

    So I havent been around much as of late On top of life sucking, a lot, my beautiful FZ6 was taken away from me. A rather old woman turned across traffic into me and I bounced off the side of her little suv at 50. I felt it as soon as I tried to stand up. A plate, a rod, and 6 screws...

    Numerous issues, overheating, rising idle, drivability....

    Initially I had thought vacuum leak as well, but it tripped me up that it's so inconsistent. On my way home today the idle never got above 1610 the whole ride. throttle feels like it always has, no binding and its lubed. I know I have to pull the tank and look everything over, I'm going to have...

    Opinions on bad fuel economy

    I agree, I had an issue with my R6 calipers a while back, and I pulled each piston out and polished it thoroughly. It worked well for me that time, I had another issue and my air filter was dirty, to me I really didnt see it as that bad but I soaked it in zepp and oiled it and my mpg's shot up...

    This bike is fast!

    theres a difference between being out pulled and being out stupided by a cage. That being said it does not take that much money to make a cage STUPID fast. I have built quite a few that will spank a liter bike. :D I got TROLLED my a M3 and a blown TA with a chute on the highway, and if you...

    Attn: Stratoliner ISC high-idle issue (ref via TownsendFJR1300)

    Re: Attn MOTOGIRO: Stratoliner ISC high-idle issue (ref via TownsendFJR1300) Does the bike ECU use the TPS as a factor when varying the gound/signal to the ISC (Im used to it being a IAC lol, apologies if I slip up) In some vehicles when the ecu detects a TPS above a certain % it will trigger...
