    please help, gas leak

    Hey guys I'm new here and I ride a 2007 fz6 and I have a gas leak I cannot figure out. I'm 100% sure it's a gas leak and it is coming from the hose connected to the bottom left side of the tank.

    Weight+style vs. mileage

    I'm curious about this because I was reading the 15t front sprocket thread, and someone reported having the smaller front sprocket and still getting roughly 60 miles per gallon. I have a stock setup, ride it like a total (meow), and very seldomly ride two up... I usually get about 48-52 mpg...

    Gas Gauge Stopped Working after Dent

    I was removing my Fuzzy from the shed when it pinched my leg and unfortunately I had no choice but to allow it to lay over on the door frame.

    Concerns About Getting a Mix of Lower Octane Fuel

    Tank Pad...

    EDIT: So i went ahead and got the one i wanted! It was pretty easy to install apart that i was freaking out about getting it on straight...I think i came pretty close, just the bottom is a tiny bit more to the right (by just a few mm's) but the top looks to be pretty dead center. Anyhow i love...

    After Market Exhaust = Better Gas Mileage

    I'm not sure if this will help anybody one way or the other with regards to buying an after market exhaust, but my new scorpions have given me 15-20 miles more out of a tank full of gas. Has this been the case for scorpion owners or other after market exhaust owners? Thanks, Nick
