    Madstad Windscreen Works!

    I've had problems for several years with too much wind turbulence around the bottom and sides of my helmet. The combination of my Cycle Gear modular helmet and Yamaha's extended height "touring windshield" just created so much wind noise that I couldn't hear my iphone GPS instructions, which...

    WTB: Madstad 18" Clear Windshield for '07 FZ6

    The title says it all. Anybody got a Madstad Engineering 18" clear windshield with OEM mounting kit, for a 2007 FZ6, that either got tired of it or sold the bike already? I live in zip code 17601, for mailing purposes. Alternatively, don't hesitate to give their windshields a comment if you...

    Cycle Gear GEAR!

    This is a totally unpaid product ENDORSEMENT. When I started riding a street bike (my 2007 FZ6) about 3 years ago, I didn't have much money to spend on safety gear. I needed a helmet, armored jacket and armored pants, all at the same time. And I'm a 69 year old rider - slow and careful. My...

    Drained Out Oil Looked Weird???

    Changed my oil Saturday. Last fill was with Yamaha Semi-Synthetic Yamalube 20w-50 (exactly as suggested by my usually reliable, nearby dealer), and was put in the bike less than a year ago (about 3M miles ago). I use a piece of metal flashing to make a "runway" for the oil to transit from...

    Weirdest Colors for M.C.C.

    I just had to post this. Found on a local CraigsList where the Motorcycle Club was soliciting for new members. Hard to believe someone would literally want another "monkey on their back"!

    T-Rex Sliders Don't Fit Correctly?

    I know there are various opinions about frame sliders. I'm in the "hope they help if I get in a jam" camp. I just bolted on a set of T-Rex sliders, specifically sold for the 2007 FZ6 S2. Have to say, they appear to be a very well made product for the price paid. However, after the...

    Maintenance Log - Excel format

    I like to keep track of when periodic maintenance is due, and when/whether I've done it. I searched the forums, but didn't see exactly what I wanted. And I acquired my 2007 FZ6 used, with about 13M miles on it. Thus the back of the owner's manual schedule didn't fit very well. So I made my own...

    New Chain Links Length?

    Measured 15 links of my chain today, to determine how far gone the chain might be (2007 FZ6 - the faster blue). Got 8.75 inches, rather than the "too long" measurement of 9.42". Anybody know what the length of 15 links of the stock chain should be, when it's new and has 0 miles? Would sure...
