Hi Ty, and WELCOME to the forum! What is it about the FZ6 that you find to be different from your earlier bikes?

Hey guys, I'll be driving cross country with my daughter to get her (& her car) to San Diego State for grad school and we're planning to spend a day at the Canyon, actually an afternoon, night and morning. Any suggestions on what to see, do, or where to eat or stay for the night, would be...

Well, it arrived yesterday. Mounted it but only got a short ride in the fading light, so it wasn't a good test. And today it's raining so I'll be in the car. Chris

I agree with Beetle, though I hesitate to put Wikipedia and "authoritative" so close in the same sentence. The info about the fueling, brakes, instrument cluster, fairing, and swing-arm seems to be accurate. Since I last looked at the wikipedia page, somebody removed the horsepower ratings...

If you bought a Shoei RF-1200 and you wanted the Transitions shield, well it's finally available and vendors are shipping them out. FINALLY!!! Chris

I live in WV and I recommend it for a motorcycle vacation. I can't say much about any of the roads in other parts. I've only returned to riding a year and a half ago and most of my riding has been close-ish to home in Parkersburg, which is in the northwest part on the Ohio River. We have LOT of...

Not a problem. I also tend to try to fit a lot in. And family is important. Glad you enjoyed the roads!

I'm checking out rental bikes!

I just got back from a trip to NY to visit with the in-laws. This year, first time ever, I trailered my motorcycle for our once-a-year visit and explored the surrounding area. We were there from Monday evening through Saturday at noon. Except for Friday I only rode in the early AM so my dear...

Dude, Did you pass through and not check in? Tsk, tsk. If I remember correctly. the middle part of June was pretty wet. I took a day of vacation on Friday, 6/19 and Saturday with some people who came down from Michigan to ride SE Ohio and NW WV. It rained a bit on Friday and a lot on...

LUCK!!!!!! (and few extra exclamation points to make the 10 character minimum.

Congrats Ryan! And welcome to the forum! The bike looks like it's super clean. Good luck today with the bearurocracy - hope you're riding by early afternoon. :D Chris

Welcome Serzedo (Fabio). Sorry to hear that you got hit, but glad you're back and the bike was repaired. Chris

Yes, we're very active. But you forgot to mention helpful, and friendly, and handsome, well - except Motogiro (that's a selfie that he uses as an icon). Blah Regarding your question about oil, I think Motul is one of the ones mentioned often. Just do a search on "shifting" or "rough...

Welcome Gator! You picked a great bike and joined a wonderful forum! Please gear up (yes, I know its hot) and take a Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) returning rider workshop. I was away from bikes for 25 years and it really helped. And PLEASE get the youngsters to go for training. They're...

I have a 2008 and replaced my mirrors with the R6 version. They fit exactly on the mounting points and I think they are great improvement in looks and in rear view functionality. This is probably the post you saw...

I'm running my first set of PR4's. Had them installed late last month so I'm still sort of getting used to them. My sense is that they seem easier to turn in, and past a point almost fall in almost too fast. But the Dunlop RoadSmart II's that they replaced were rather worn and they were feeling...

In the US the organizing group calls for Monday to be Ride to Work DAY. This link to a site in the UK seems to be advocating for a WEEK. So, if that group is the main organizer, you'll still have Friday. ....sorry... Ride To Work Week

I think we've angered the rain gods! :eek:

I didn't ride to work today, Tuesday. It was raining at departure time. But it's sunny now. ...shameful...:mad:
