bars

Hey folks. New to the forums. Recently picked up a FZ6 project bike and looking forward to getting her going. Just picked up some new Battlax tires for her lastnight! Current ones are baldest i've ever seen.. Anyway, the stock bars are somewhat bent and I'd like to replace with...

Not that I'm looking to sell the Hot Raven Chick but the question goes out, what would you pay for her as is? Share your thoughts! Let me say that she will either leave us as a crash victim or be sold as is. I'm not into taking it all apart! With some level of certainty, I'm sure some wise...

So, bike got knocked over on its right side, yesterday evening. No major damage as there was no forward motion, just got dumped on its side. Only thing that happened is the forks got tweaked so the while rolling straight, the bars were angled left. Stuck the tire against a building, rubber only...

I had MX, or dirt bike, handlebars on my nighthawk, and it was fantastic. not only for ease of control, but also for comfort and appearance, the MX bars were great. I haven't seen any pictures of MX bars on and FZ6 though. Has anyone tried this? Are there clearance issues with the fairing...

Hi all, I need to change the handlebars on my 09 fz6, the kill my wrists and elbows, Ive tried just riding this year to see if I can adapt to them , but no go.. So I'm looking for a straight bolt on no mod handlebar setup ( less sweep) . and a parts list of anything else I may need, like bar...

So I have a garmin nuvo but usually only use it on longer rides not around town. Sometimes I need to go somewhere and having my gps on my phone would be handy. I have seen some nice cases that go on the handle bars or I also have a ball mount on mine. The phone I have is a Samsung Galaxy S2...

I replaced my stock grips on my 2007 with the ProGrip 714BK and like them a lot. Much grippier and seemed to help with the vibes...slightly. I still notice hand pain and numbness after 30 minutes or so of riding. I am always careful not to death-grip the bars, but I wish there was something...

I was riding Sunday evening and I needed to zip up my jacket all the way. I was going 50-55 mph and let go of the handle bars to zip up. I started to get a little shake that would have progressed into bad news if I didn't grab handle bars real quick. Aside from wheel ballance, what else could I...

So ... I'm getting old. I want a bike that's even more comfy than the FZ6, while not sacrificing power or handling. By this I mean lower seat height, more stretched out legs and higher bars. Is it possible? I'm only 5 foot 8 and my legs aren't massive. The stock seat height and high centre of...

Me regular mechanic installed this some years back. Upside is that the posture is a lot more relaxed and there is noticeably less fatigue on longer rides. Downside is perhaps less steering ease? I'm 1.76m and my wife rides her fz6 with the same bars too. She's 1.7m. It works fine for both of us...

Has anyone tried FZ 07 bars on their FZ6 yet?

I'm going to sell my FZ6s. It's 9 years old and run in 12k miles. I've changed the screen for a Puig, Beowulf cans, a s2 swingarm, bars off a FZ1 and added a belly pan and seat cowl. Reckon I should return it to stock to sell?

Ok well it was 7 months ago I had my wreck. Today I push started my bike and rode her around the block a few times. I am going to be getting her on the road soon and figured out what I need to do. I need to fix my fairings, put a tank cover on since my tank can not be saved. It is not to bad but...

Hi guys, i am sure this has been done to death, i want to try changing my bars for the suggested FZ1 but cant seem to find a set of used ones.... So what are the alternatives....there seems to be a few suppliers of such things as Renthal etc, but how do we compare and decide on the right ones...

Hey guys! I've been reading alot about the FZ1 bars, it totally makes sense why the FZ6 bars cause numbness and discomfort, both of which I suffer with, my wrists have to be bent in a way to push my hands outwards to hold onto the bars. Problem is, I've been looking around at FZ1 bars and...

Hi all, i wonder if anyone can help with a bit of advice? I appear to be suffering pins and needles (numbing) in my hands when riding at higher speeds, i did initially think it was my gloves being a little tight or small that was causing it. Today i replaced my gloves with some new ones, a...

Ok, not FZ1 bars, but close enough! Emgo wide drag bars = 0" rise, 27.5" wide, 3" pullback. Sell new on Motorcycle Super Store for $20. I like em, flat and all but my wife is learning on the FZ and complained cause she is short, so when a different route for bars. Has holes drilled on both ends...

Hey guys, Just started riding the FZ6 and dont feel comfortable with the standard bars. They seem too angled towards you and to high up. Anyone else have this issue? What handle bars did you change too? Im thinking so low Renthals just want to see if anyone else has tried it and what the...
