    Fz6 vs CBR f4I

    Thats not the case, the cbr 600 will power up every time in 2nd. The fz6 is a detuned 600 that lacks the power to do so. The FZ6 is not a super sport and should not have the power of the cbr to begin with so its not surprising. Also the the r6 has the most aggressive ergos out of all of them...

    Fz6 vs CBR f4I

    In 2nd? I have a motocross racing background and weight 165lbs. My fz6 does not have the power to lift in 2nd, period.

    Weekend Mods complete! Hello Streetfighter..

    Thanks guys. I sprayed them myself with colorrite. Pretty simple if you know how to paint - be sure to prime gray first or they come out purple. I learned the hard way and had to sand em down. As far as advice, get the plug and play harness from vishnu. It made it so much faster. Also I had...

    Ok Im just throwing sh*t now... Exhaust install help...

    Update: All good! The towel did the trick and she came right off. Sanded it down and used red gasket maker. Started this morning and no leaks! Also the seller got back to me about the missing arm for the plate and will send to me. (maybe he read the post, lol.)
