After I got it, I did a couple short rides, but this past week I did a trip up to Maine on a Wednesday, came back on Saturday. Each day was about 250-275 miles, about 7-8 hours of riding each day. I also added taller risers right before this trip, to improve the upright seating position. My butt...

So this past winter I purchased a custom seat from Terry Adcox of terryscustomseats.com. He builds custom “bucket” seats from the stock seat pants. His seats have very positive reviews on other forums. He does both single bucket (rider only) and double bucket (rider and passenger). To preface...

I just did the swap on my 07 S2. The triples are compatible, just that the forks are slightly wider on the FZ6 than the R6s, so you need some new axle and caliper spacers. I have a bunch of spare parts of the R6 forks - essentially everything minus the lower legs. Upper tubes, caps, full...

I was just up there a few days ago on the bike, mostly on the eastern half. Took 91 to 202 (also pretty nice) then 2E out towards Lowell. Looking at google maps, 2 west from there does look a lot better.

On the fz6, you don't need the wire for the oil filter, you can just wedge the screw part of the hose clamp up against the engine at about the 2:00 position if you're looking at the filter. Tighten the screw, and the filter can't unspin because the screw is against the engine. I'll post a pic...

Congrats on the new ride! I've considered trading the FZ6 for a DL650 for the same upright/comfort reasons as well, but I'll probably hold onto the FZ for this year as I just got a custom seat and am looking into new handlebars. Only sat on, never ridden a Strom though - later this summer I'll...

Sold thanks!

Nice! Congrats! Did you get a new track toy? I saw that you sold your R6 (and a little disappointed that I missed out on it).

I picked up an ex-racebike F4i for a track bike. Not as visually pretty as this bike, but pretty well setup for suspension and such. This could be you!

Sold thanks

Bump for a friend's bike. This bike is clean, and it has this sweet tail light on it http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-mods/52696-homemade-fz6-led-tail-integrated-signals.html

You can remove the feeler things, they just unscrew. I did that the first week I had my bike since they kept getting hooked on my boots. The footages fold back, so it's not a huge deal if they scrape every once in a while. If you do get serious about track days though, you may want to look into...

I just picked up a well set-up "former race bike turned track day bike" 2001 F4i to replace my 99 F4 track beater. Haven't ridden it yet, in the process of giving it a good going-through first. How do you find the fueling and off/on throttle transition compared to the FZ6? The carbs and...

why do you need extra performance? Are you legit racing? If not, whatever you do to it to increase horsepower is going to come at the expense of fuel costs. To me, performance mods on a street bike like the FZ6 aren't worth it, the stock ~100hp is more than enough to beat 99% of cars from a...

The brake calipers on the R6S are the same as on the 07-09 FZ6, so people with the Gen2 don't even need new calipers for the fork swap. Check ronayers to verify that the MC for the 06 is the same for the 07, and you'll know for sure. As far as I'm aware, usually the MC's aren't swapped for the...

With my topcase on, I get 47-48 mpg. With my topcase and sidecases on, I get 42-43 mpg. Same type of riding, same conditions. These numbers are consistent.

Did you have collision insurance? First off, you'll have to get the frame checked out, if the frame is screwed up, it's toast. If the frame is still good, You have to ask yourself, either: A) do you want to get it rideable and reliable, and not care if it looks ratty B) do you want it to be...

Yes, that is a dumb question, because if the jacket didn't unzip from the pants, it would be a 1-piece suit. :thumbup:

Sold..........
