    Weird, don't know what happened to them.

    What bike did you learn on?

    Considering Speed Triple

    Love mine and so far no issues. 2011 black and coming up on 1000 miles. I'm keeping my FZ-6 for long trips and just because it was my first bike and I still love it. No getting the S3 to 14k RPM but boy does it have torque.

    Show us your FZ6 in Touring mode!

    Wow, thanks for the interest and the compliments. I'll post some closer images this evening and also the parts numbers for the rack and cases. The racks are SW-Motech and I believe those are the 37L Trax boxes but let me check. I also got the matching dry bags which makes loading and...

    I add a tank bag too for the essentials. The Russell seat is very comfortable for long trips.

    Painted my stock windscreen

    Very nice looking. What did you guys use for paint?

    WTD: Stock OEM screen for 2006 FZ-6

    Anyone have a stock screen lying around for a 2006 FZ-6 they want to get rid of? It has to be in good condition. I'm interested in buying or swapping it for a Yamaha touring screen for the same year.

    Anyone use "top-load" side cases?!

    FYI - the seat pictured is a Russell Cycles "Day-Long" custom. It is very comfortable for long trips but I have a Top Sellerie seat for day-to-day and canyon carving riding. :thumbup:

    What annoys you about your FZ6?

    I used to hate the "buzz" too but during my last long distance trip, every time my feet started aching from the foot pegs I'd put my heels on the pegs and run the engine in the "buzz" zone. It's like having a built-in magic-fingers massage. 5 minutes of that and I was good-to-go for a couple...

    Anyone use "top-load" side cases?!

    I use Trax cases and love them. I got a set of dry bags with the cases which make them easy to load and empty. The cases detach easily as do the SW Motech rails.

    New Swingarm Decals Available

    I'm very happy with how these look. Very snazzy. The hardest part was getting the manufacturer's stickers off the swingarm. I finally had to use a heat gun and a credit card to scrape them off. :thumbup:

    Pazzo VS ASV

    Check out the2wheels Motorcycle parts Online Store. I have a set of Pazzos on my FZ-6 and got a set of levers from the above for my Speed Triple. There's a slight style difference but the price difference is ridiculous and the fit and feel is fantastic. I just got the normal long black...

    Electric Motorcycle? Would you buy one?

    I test drove a Zero DS. It was fun, quiet, and underwhelming. Range, acceleration, and cost all need improvement but it's a good start. As we get more competition and better emphasis on performance I think the concept will be viable. P.S. Noise Annoys
