    Missing the FZ6

    Well it's been about 10 months since I sold the fz6 and bought a '11 GSXR750 and I've been missing the 6 a lot lately. I guess I wanted to be one of the "cool kids" and get a super sport, but I'm not liking it as much as I thought I would. I mean yeah, it's fast as all holy hell and rides like...

    Got a new bike!!

    Today is a mixed day for me. I had to say goodbye to my beloved FZ6 but I got to welcome home a new bike. The FZ6, and this forum, have been great. I've gotten a lot of good help and advice from the members here and I hope in some way I was able to help out some others. This truly is the best...

    Odd front tire wear?

    I plan on getting a new set of tires prob next week or so, but I was wondering why my front tire is starting to wear funny. It appears to have a fair amount of tread left, but the center tread is very uneven. When I move the bike around the garage it feels like I have a knobby tire on there. I'm...

    Zx14??

    Has any one on here ridden, or have any experience with zx14's?? Being rather tall (6'6" bout 220lbs) I think I would be more comfortable on a larger bike. Some times I feel so big on the 6. I've been sitting on a bunch of bikes lately and for the most part all the supersports are cramped. That...

    I have a Firstgear Meshtex jacket that I would like to sell. Bought it about 7 or so months ago. Still looks new. The size is an Large-Tall. I got the tall cause the sleeves were supposed to be longer but honestly I don't see it. So we'll just call it a large...I'm 6'6" and it fits me pretty...

    naked w/clip ons??

    So I'm about to start my naked transformation and I've been considering some adjustable clipons. Just wondering if anyone had any pics of a naked bike with clip ons. I can only find a couple of pics and they all have the fairing.

    f/s: Puig racing screen 09

    Up forsale is my recently purchased dark smoke Puig racing screen. It has prob 500 miles on it. I don't like how it directs all of the air right on my chin bar of my helmet and causes some serious buffeting and wind noise. I'm a taller guy so that could be the problem. I've decided to go naked...

    my new lid!

    Well I finally broke down and bought me a nice, perfect fitting helmet. I tried on prob every single helmet from every single manufacture and nothing fit like the Arai profile...really every Arai fit pretty good, didn't really notice too much of a difference between them. Any who, revzilla had...

    caught in the rain..

    And it sucked!! This was my first time ever riding in the rain and it absolutely sucked. I don't know how you guys (that ride in the rain a lot) do it. They called for 10% chance of rain, so I rode the bike to work. Was nice all day till 30 min before punchout time and it got dark...right in the...

    My new toy

    So I've been on the search for a while for a new ride. I had it pretty much narrowed down to a 2010 Hyundai Gen coupe 2.0T track model. I drove the car and it felt pretty solid, but I kept reading about how bad the transmission was on the gencoupe.com forum so I was having my doubts. Then on...

    bubbly idle w/leo's...w/vid

    So I don't know why the bike does this, it maybe normal but I dunno. When I have the db killers in the muffler it seems to never do this, but when I take them out, the idle bounces around...usually for the first 10 min or so of riding, but sometimes takes longer to smooth out. This is a quick...

    Helmet delima

    So I'm in the search of a new helmet. I currently have a scorpion exo-400 size large. It doesn't fit too bad, but after about 30 min of riding I'll start to get a slight head ache from it pressing on my forehead. I tried an xl and it's the same way. Aside from that, it's a good helmet. So I've...

    Tourmaster Caliber Pants?

    Any one on here have the tourmaster caliber pants? I've been on a search for some riding pants for a while and these were one of the only ones I could find in a "tall" size that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Or of someone could reccomend some other pants to me that come in a 34" inseam for a...

    FZ1 bar installed

    Just got finished installing the FZ1 bar and some grip puppies, and I must say they feel great. Haven't taken it for a ride yet but I can tell by sitting on it that it's gonna be much better. I'm 6'5" with really long arms so they should help out a bunch. The install went pretty well, esp since...

    I bought a fz1 bar off of ebay and I just want to make sure it's the right one. I know I heard people saying that the bar is longer that the fz6 bar, but the one I got appears to be the same length...about 26.5 inches. There are know part #'s on it except for KS14 what ever that is. The guy...

    dripping fuel after ride??

    I had to put gas in my 6 for the first time today, so I went to the station and filled her up, then rode around for a good 40 miles went home and parked it. Then I went outside about 10 min after I got home and noticed a puddle under the bike. At first I thought it was oil, but then I noticed...

    Picked up the bike today!!!

    Well I finally got the FZ6 at the house. I'm super excited. I already put 80miles on it (had 0) and I can tell it's gonna be a easy bike to ride. It feels just about perfect to me. I'm 6'5" and it's hard tying to find a bike that fits me pretty good, but I am pretty comfortable on the fz6. I...
