    power commander with stock exhaust and intake

    Seems as though people install a PC to take advantage of improved intake and exhaust flow. Does anyone here run a PC with the stock setup, and if so have you found it to be useful? Did you set it and forget it, or do you find yourself changing tunings occasionally?

    Crash landing?? Strange place to die

    Well I didn't crash land but somehow this little dragonfly landed under my seat and never left! He seems completely intact. Perhaps a tad dehydrated? What a strange place to fly into and die under the FZ6 seat. I was pulling the rear wheel for install of a new Dunlop Sportmax Q3+ after...

    Comfort seat for 2005 fz6 S1

    Hi My ass and I have decided that the time is nigh for a more comfortable seat when we do long touring. What I miss is a seat that is a bit higher than the standard, and distributes the load more evenly over the seat. I am 185cm btw. I have found a company (Bagster seats) that will do a...

    Yesterday I arrived from Toronto to beloved Sarasota, FL. Took Uber to our place counting on my trusty FZ6 sitting in garage. Before going to sleep I plugged in battery charger to get it ready for tomorrow. Normally I keep it on all the time but this time it was unplugged for 2 months. More...

    It has been a while

    I have been away from this lovely community for sometime, but I have to say it feels good to be back. The motivation for me to turn on the computer is the bike.
