6 bikes and only you? Looks like you need to pick up a friend on your way there. :thumbup:

I'd say use locktite and make yourself a thin rubber washer to put between the threaded ring and the plate. The rubber should help keep it from threading out, mine has more vibrations than it should I'd say, and at the beginning I realized I didn't have it secured well enough and it got a bit...

I have most of the CF fender from my roommate's RSV-R Mille (special edition, 1 of 50 in the states) that you could probably use after the appraiser visits ;) That CF looked sweet, but odds are he's going to have a very hard time getting the parts to get this back to factory. (Box...

You'll need an 07+ if you want blue - the 06- are black

Just steal the headlights from an old Speed Triple :)

I'm with you on that one, I think he just dumped it and wanted something mechanical to help explain why he, being a highly skilled stunt rider, would have dumped his bike. :rolleyes:

There's some good news here. 1. The projector cutoff itself is fine, if you look at the last picture, you'll see that the right side of your beam is slightly raised with respect to the left side of your beam. The problem is: 2. Something is wrong with the mounting brackets. As you know...

On that note - in the Concealed Carry class I took on Sunday, I met a guy who had a bad left hand from dumping his gixxer 1000 at 50 doing a wheelie. Go figure, right? He claims that he was up on his rear wheel when the throttle return cable snapped, by the time he got to the clutch he was...

Psh - not going to end this derailment. It's my plan - but before I do this I'd wanted to check my valve clearance - just to reassure myself that I'm not in any more imminent danger of blowing by advancing the timing. (I've read through all of those threads multiple times, and am eagerly...

That one ended, but I think the link I clicked took me to the same one. Here's what i'm talking about, based upon the pictures in the listing.

On my ride home today I realized you're right. Sure, any bike clunks when dropping into first or going to second through neutral - but yeah, when you're good on the throttle, accelerating or decelerating, it's like butter.

Rarely would you be able to fit one of these mammoths into a motorcycle. Those pictures are not bixenons, so you would need a high beam as well, or if they are bixenon, the bulb itself would have to move in relation to the shield. On bixenons, the shutter itself moves, allowing the light to...

I hope I misunderstood that, but if you do what I think you did, you'll basically just be flipping it upside down, meaning that the light itself will never hit the road, and will only be useless and blinding.

Nope. At least, my 06 with 25k miles on it isn't. Definitely not compared with the new GSX-R 600 I rode a few weeks ago, or any supersport for that matter. You'll have some slop in the gearbox, just from the nature of the bike, it's a cheaper version to the R6, so it doesn't have the...

the FZ6 has a good reputation in the Ohio ARC :) Just don't bring some meathead on a CBR with the license plate 'sltslayr'

VS02 + HID projector is tight. trust me - I had the same cable binding issues. You'll want to route the cable differently, as said, farther forward will give it a bit more space. I don't remember the exact spot where mine was binding, but it definitely had some issues (my issues are also...

Just disassemble it a little bit, take the shutter and flip it left to right, it'll work the same and have the cutoff on the other side. The lense, bulb etc are all the same for LHD/RHD, it's just the tiny shutter.

Ear plugs FTW. Nothing beats the angry sewing machine ;)

You could manually advance your timing - I've heard good things and am planning on doing that (after I do a valve check) - It'll give you more power across the board, which should help with your torque - I barely understand the mechanics of it so I won't confuse you by adding in my input. There...

No cutting at all - it fits into the standard headlight fitting.
