I recently purchased a PC III from a member here. Installation I am assuming is pretty straightforward. I'm looking for manuals on the internet. I don't have any mods right now, and will be running the Zero map for the time being. I've read mixed reviews that the Zero map smooths throttle...

Well shoot I can’t sell this bike. I enjoy it too much so I’m just going to have to make the space. Admins please delete if that is appropriate.

It required 3 separate purchases. The led itself, the bucket, and the brackets. Search your favorite online retailer for the light and bucket. Just make sure you buy them in the same diameter. 8” fits pretty well on the FZ6 I think. For the brackets I bought a very nice set recommended by a...

I've decided to sell my Fazer. I'm getting a VStrom and don't have space or time for multiple bikes, so I have to sell a couple. It does have a salvage title due to a drop by the previous owner. I can provide all the details about repairs and whatnot to anyone interested. I'll be listing it...

Possibly interested in both pending fitment. I know the bar will work. Which PC, and which FZ6 did you have?

Mostly. It was a barn find without a title. I can't register it, so it is dirt only and I have sold the instrument cluster and lighting to someone who was doing a complete restoration. Mine only had 3500 miles on it when parked in 1979 with a dead stator, so it is in great shape. I've...

I had an uncle years ago who was a Slick 50 rep, and he had a 1.3L engine from a Honda Civic on a trailer. He would start up the engine, and then drain the oil out of it and let it run for some period of time without oil to demonstrate how well it protected it was. It would overheat, then...

Fan is fixed! I put in some quick connects in case I need to drop the radiator again and don't want to have the fan dangling there. Now I can ride without worrying about going too slow or hitting red lights. My bike is running perfectly. I don't need any more maintenance, mods, or repairs...

It would be interesting to have a power meter on our bikes that would give us an instant read on rwhp at any given time. I am absolutely certain that we are all using the same 50rwhp 90% of the time. Mods that add power are just giving you more of what you weren't using in the first place...

yeah, sorry. I didn't notice yours is a 2004 and assumed they made them for the earlier version as well.

I used a CalSci windscreen before converting to naked. It was a massive improvement over the stock screen. I am about your height, and the buffeting and noise from the stock screen was fairly miserable at highway speeds. The CalSci created a decent pocket of quieter air. It was quite a bit...

Yep, can do from below the mat. Radiator it is. I don't care about the cost of the repair, just don't feel like doing it :rolleyes: I have avoided riding in the city. As long as I'm moving it stays cool. Hot weather is coming though and I'll feel much better not having to keep such a close...

So what is the best way to get at the fan? It looks like either the battery and airbox (and possibly more) have to come off, or the radiator. Neither option is appealing. I don't think I have the fabled long allen key to get the airbox off. I just changed the coolant this spring and don't...

Fan wires came loose from the clip and rubbed against the ring around the fan blades long enough to saw through both wires. So add that to the list of reasons fans fail.

This has not been the case for me. I ground off the throttle side pin so I could move the grip inboard enough to install a barend mirror, and the clamp absolutely does not hold the controls in place. No amount of torque short of stripping the threads or breaking the plastic will secure it. I...

This is likely a troll, but I'll play along... Your mirrors work to see behind you in full tuck? Or were you still sitting up at 125? Why do you believe the bike you saw parked was the same one that passed you? By "the engine was slightly different" what do you mean? And no, you can't...

I got the round headlight installed this weekend. I cut off half of the gauge cluster bracket, and I had to modify the gauge cluster fairing in order to fit the headlight. I transferred the angle for the back of the headlight bucket to the fairing, and cut it with a dremel. The bracket the...

It did and maybe I should have, but I thought it would be pretty easy to suspend the bike as well. It was interesting, but definitely more work. I will not do it that way next time.

Yeah, the thing I was struggling with is the "idiot lights" on the dash. I know they provide important info. It's a good dash actually, and if I replaced it I would wan to keep all of the functionality. I will mount it without the cowl and think about making something to protect the back...

I did drill the holes, but I don't like the location of the grips so I will try without them. The stock bar ends effect the position of the grips, and I didn't take that into account when I measured for the holes. I got them spot on, but the distance from the end of the bar should have...
