    Installed a PCIII today with Leo Vince map...

    So I did this today: Let the bike warm up, adjusted the throttle a bit, and then took it for a spin. I was really surprised. I definitely felt a difference in the bike. It just seemed... "happier" throughout it's rev range. First gear was way more enjoyable than usual. Normally I dread being...

    Just rode my bike home with the Pilot Road 3's...

    Alright, maybe I'm crazy, but the bike feels really different. I've only ridden my FZ6 with the stock Dunlops that came on it, and even just cruising a few miles home after the new tires were put on the bike feels a hundred times better. I don't have to fight it as hard to turn in, and in...

    Winter project complete!

    So, it's all done and ready to go. Off the bat I need to thank Cliff (Motogiro) and Borka from BKMoto for helping me along with the wiring questions. I wouldn't have been able to do all of this if it wasn't for this board. Did this entire conversion keeping the stock wiring harness, adding in...

    Need some turn signal help please!

    Hi all, So I'm just about done with my naked conversion. I picked up some cheap Lockhart Philips short stalk turn signals to be used with my new headlight. They are not LED. They're just simple 2 wire signals with a bulb. I also bought some Yamaha style turn signal connectors so I could...

    Winter project preview...

    Well, I finally went naked. Here's the list of what I've done so far: 1. Custom headlight from BKMOTO. CCFL Halo and Bi-xenon HID. Installed a rocker switch on the handlebar to isolate the halo as low beam and the HID/secondary lamp as high beam. 2. I didn't like the built in blinkers...

    Posi-Lock / Posi-Tite Connectors

    I just noticed that Posi Lock now makes watertight connectors. Anyone try these out yet? I'll be doing a naked conversion soon and these seem like a quicker/easier option to soldering/heat shrinking. Posi-Tite- Watertite Connector

    FZ6 spotted in Jersey City yesterday...

    Has to be someone on here. Blue, Puig racing windscreen, dual headlight mod, 2 brothers cans, hard cases on the sides, and the guy was in full gear. Was nice to see considering the amount of squids I pass by daily in this heat.

    Can someone recommend a locking outdoor cover?

    Hi all, A new life change has me packing up and moving out of suburbia and into the city. Unfortunately that means I'm losing my garage. I have arranged to rent a parking space outside for my bike (an indoor space is $325 a month... just can't swing that), and was wondering if anyone can help...

    I need a glove recommendation please!

    Hi all, So it appears I have small palms and long fingers, which has made finding a full gauntlet glove a huge pain. So far I've tried to Alpinestars SP-1 and the Dainese Pro Carbon gloves. The large fits great in the palm, but the index fingers were too short. I know gloves will stretch...

    Thinking about pulling the trigger on a leather suit...

    Hi all, I'm seriously considering picking up a full leather suit. I've tried multiple pairs of riding pants and they were all too bulky for me. I stopped by a great new motorcycle gear shop near me tonight (Motorcycle Jackets, Motorcycle Gear, Helmets & Accessories - Motochanic) to try on...

    HUGE Thank You to Erci (Eric)!

    Last night I swung by Erci's house because he offered to help me install my new FZ1 bars, OURY grips, and Pazzo copy levers. By "help me", I mean he actually did all of the work while I held a few parts. What a genuinely nice guy. I learned a lot about the bike and think I would have gotten...
