Hello Fz6 Forum!

[YBP]

Wasup guys this is Bp here just introducing myself to the forum. I do not own a bike yet, but i have been looking at the fz6, Only problem is i wonder are longer pegs available for the clutch and brake, I'm 6'4 and i tried different street bikes and so far this one fits.

When you say pegs and refer to the clutch and brake are you talking about the levers on the handlebars or are you talking about foot pegs as in shifter and brake?

If you're talking about foot pegs there are places you can get extenders.

You'll find this is a great group of people here on this forum. I've never run into a friendlier more fun group of folks so enjoy!:rockon:

I meant foot pegs. I wear a size 13 and i need room to shift. I haven't purchased the bike yet but i'm wondering what are prices like.

Here's an example of extentions.http://www.600riders.com/forum/bikes-parts-sale/34301-fz6-foot-peg-lowering-blocks-hardware.html

You should be able to do a Google search and find a few sources.
Here's a guy that made them for the FZ6 here in San Diego. Give him a email and see if he'll make you a set. I helped providing my bike as the prototype to get a set made. I didn't need them and sent them to another forum member that needed them. Yamaha FZ6

Just search "motorcycle rearsets" they have many, some of them are customizable.

You can find new, cero miles bikes left over for great prices. I remember seen one around 5k

:welcome: to the forum. Great resource for anything and everything FZ6 related. As said before, lots of different options for adjustability on the good ole FZ. Setback plates, ottimoto rearsets, rizoma rearsets, and different pegs are a few different options you have.

Where are you located in Arkansas? We have a few members up here in NW AR. I'm in Russellville.

welcome to the forum.. get on getting that bike

as for the foot peg suggestions, the lowering kit would probably work out the best for you.. either that or you can search for oso2k's rearset plates.. bu those push back and up i believe.. dunno if you want your knees in your chest when your ridding.. good luck and keep us posted on the bike hunt :thumbup:

Bleh, sucks having to back to MI to get the license. It's almost too easy to get in Arkansas.

Going to school at the U of A? I took a few classes up there, my older sister and husband both graduated from there, and my little sister is starting school up there next spring.

Good luck with the sale and license!
