I just wanna hear the M4's one last time :rockon: Seriously, never heard any exhaust on any bike that i liked that much, ever. not even on a v-twin or triple. :thumbup: by the way, after watching your m4 youtube vid...just wondering, have you done your airbox mod yet? ? ?

Someone asked me to do a write up about my R1, after my FZ6 (and first bike of a Ninja 500). Here goes my attempt. Torque: got it? Super-awesome torque. You can do whatever you want in first gear...second gear...third gear... seating position: it SUCKS! it's not so bad in the...

You just needed an excuse to upgrade :p Glad you're not hurt bro- Take my advice, get the 848 and forget the triple

Count me in- Just remember though, my bike burns more gas and stores less (doh!)

lose another stone. trust me, i lost 4 a while back, felt like a new man...gained it back this year...feel like crap again. i'm ready to start starving myself again once this annoying pest i have gets out of my life forever.

check out the microfiche at ronayers.com i got too frustrated and never even got that far...maybe looking at an exploded view will help.

I remember when I used to think that about my FZ6 - hearing the fans kick on isn't anything like burning your legs through jeans though :eek:

There's less overstock and less need for clearance. Motorcycle gear is experiencing a boom right now.

I love what I learned from these forums about oil changes on fz6's...the aluminum foil was definitely required for my R1!

They are sold in pairs. They remind me of insulation for refrigeration lines but more foamy-like.

I agree with blue, getting two similar bikes would be redundant. I was looking at upgrading to a sportbike and looked at the daytona 675. Only by comparing it to the speed triple did I really want to buy one, though I'm sure the daytona has more top end (i'd rather have mid range). if it...

Yes folks, I'm still here amongst the fazers :ban: but I might come back to the FZ6 in a year or two- who knows :rockon: Just wanted to give you future airbox modders :cheer: a lil insight- the R1 seems to have a damper for the ram air :eek: yes! Like I theoretically suggested for my fz a...

200lb = fz1 make sure you get the right tires for it if you go off roading.

sounds kinda high, especially for not being california.

I just took the same move with an R1 bro...I can't see myself doing this for long though. I'm getting old and love to go very long distances. I couldn't make it to San Diego this weekend. I might wind up getting a Japanese cruiser in a year or two...or a zx14 (has upright seating position).

first and last mods I decided to reduce some weight and aerodynamic drag...:rockon: The last owner already did more mods than is ok for the city I live in so that's about it til I get a fix it ticket or crash it. :squid: ...I mean... :thumbup:

I'm with Elm, application is more important than the choice. I prefer the telfon because it looks clean- but it's all good. That reminds me- I need to buy stands for my new bike...I miss ye ole center stand of the fz6 :( and being able to wear shorts while riding :rockon:

Oh crap- that reminds me, I had a 4th of July trip planned. Aint gunna happen...I just tried to go to San Diego and got to Solano Beach before I pulled over and quit. Not sure if I'm ready for long hauls on the R1 yet-
