After realizing that most of my friends have cruisers and that the type of riding they liked to do was not as much fun on the FZ6 I decided to dive into their world. I have to admit that the highway riding is much more enjoyable now. I know I am going to miss some of the more aggressive twisty...
I just found some posts about ECUnleashed this morning that linked me over to the FZ1 site with some really helpful info from Hellgate. I didn't find anyone that has tried this on the FZ6 as of yet. Just wondering if anyone had and their thoughts regarding the throttle response afterwards? Also...
I am looking for some OEM Yamaha belly pan brackets. I have an eBay purchased belly pan and one of the brackets broke. The belly pan is a duplicate of the OEM Yamaha pan but the brackets were kind of crappy and broke from I assume vibration. Hope I can find some decently priced brackets from a...
I bought this thing about a year and a half ago and have just been putting off doing anything with it. Got it from eBay for about 130 bucks shipped but the fiberglass was in a bit of a rough shape and the brackets needed modified. I got out to the garage today wanting to do something productive...
My wife and I are in Florida for the week on vacation. Saturday between 2 to 4 pm we were on Hwy 10 going south east. As I looked over to the other lanes I saw a black FZ6 merging onto Hwy 10 from ? Old spanish Trail Rd.? It was in Spanish Fort Al. close to a big Bass Pro Shop. Are you on this...
Anyone have any suggestions of where to buy a reasonably priced pair of db killers that will fit the Scorpion cans, I am having trouble finding anything? I love the way they look and idle much better than stock but I would like to tame them a bit at higher revs. I also feel like I lost a little...
We just had a meeting Tuesday and found out our company is handing off some of it admin to Administaff. I don't really care what they do up front in that respect, however there was a huge downside. Found out this also includes an insurance change which ends up costing me an ADDITIONAL $250. a...
I am soon to be buying new tires and would like to see what different people are running on our bike. I have looked at some other threads and they are helpful but I was hoping I could get you guys to just post the tire you have and give it a 1-5 rating, 5 being best on traction and wear. Would...
First off thanks to ELISABETH who first turned me on to this sale a few weeks ago. I got this Fieldsheer (Deuce 2) jacket for $115 shipped from motorcyclesuperstore.com and its nice thick and heavy. Can not believe the quality for this price point, I love it and it fits perfect which is a...
I remember watching this little animation last year and I thought some of you might enjoy it even though there is a dark aspect to it. I always tell people when they ask me why I want to risk so much just to ride, well it is as close to flying as I will ever get. I know there is always a risk...
Maybe I just need to go to bed but has anyone else had a post count decrease in the last few days? I thought I just turned 300 a few days ago but now I am at around 290. I also thought I had one more rep point earlier but I may be mistaken about that? No biggie just thought I would ask and see...
Just posting in another thread and I commented that I figured most FZ6 enthusiasts will spend $1500 to $2000 on mods for there bikes. I thought I would poll it up and see how true that really is? I have had my bike for 6 months and am in about $400 but I still want front springs and exhaust by...
:rockon: -- LOVE IT!
I took a little time out Sunday and put on my Vortex 15T Sprocket and WOW what a difference. Very simple to do, wold have had it done in a half hour if I wouldn't had to run for some Loctite. I didn't even have to take the chain off the back wheel it all went very easy...
I looked though some of the threads on the site and have not found anyone who has tried this method of mounting their GPS. I wanted it to be stationary not moving with the handlebars so I figure why not give this a try, and seems to have worked. It is 75% shielded by the windscreen and the...
OK ... its a fanny pack. :cheer:
BUT WAIT!!! I am not wearing it my FZ is and that is OK because SHE is a girl.
So I wanted a little something on the handle bars to keep a few small things in like wallet, ins. card, change, sunglasses,papertowls for visor or nose:D, etc. I don't use my tank...
OK, I have to write this because yesterday a few of us were giving crap to some of the Harley riders. It was all in fun, but hey now I have to give them their due. I was playing in the twisties on my way home tonight and I was about four miles from home and came upon a Harley from the other...
opps ignore this post
Just wondering what the idea riding temperatures are for different people?
opps.. this was supposed to be a poll.
Let try this again...
Was just browsing e-Bay and happened upon a few misc parts for a 2004 fz6, the prices seem cheap enough. May be junk too, I don't know just wanted to throw it out there for any 04 or the like owners. Never know what someone might want here is a link to one of the items he had you can jump to the...
