    Tank Bag Recommendations

    What would you recommend for a tank bag? I'm looking at motorcycle-superstore.com and there are several, but I'm concerned about fit mainly. Not too concerned with storage that much, I have a backpack and will just take a couple changes of clothes and minor things. What I really want is a low...

    Newest Addition to My Family!

    Well, not a baby... despite the fact that my wife has extreme baby fever (Pretty sure it's a real thing). But we found a family on Craigslist that needed a new home for their 9 year old chocolate lab. Picked her up this morning, she's 9 so over the hyper phase, well behaved, house trained, and...

    How fast is too fast? (regarding police)

    So I'm a moderate driver in terms of aggressiveness. 98% of the time I drive a car/truck I drive at the speed limit, or 5 over (never heard of a ticket for 5 over personally). On a bike, I usually will find a couple moments to speed and get a rush (80-105 over less than a 1/4 mile of known...

    Handlebar upgrade advice?

    So going to a FZ6n, and was going to see if anyone had advice on handlebars. The stock handlebars are very much like dirtbike handlebars. I'm looking for something closer to a sport bike handlebar, how they tilt downwards at an angle a little (I realize this is probably only possible without...

    Arai Vector 2

    Here's my review for the Arai Vector 2 helmet. I upgraded from a cheap $120 helmet (can't remember brand) to the Arai, I finally made the decision that if I crash I want to live with a lot less brain trauma. Also, my other helmet was so incredibly loud on the highway that it wasn't as fun to...

    LG HBS700 Headset

    Hey everyone, This is my first review but I love these forums so I'd like to contribute where possible. A few months ago I bought the LG HBS-700 headset, it's a pretty nice design. Instead of attaching to your ear, it hangs around your neck and has earbuds that come out to put in your ears...

    Frame/Engine Paint

    Okay so I've got a Yam Blue FZ6 (2005), I'm getting ready to do a streetfigther conversion. But I've noticed several people on the forums have painted their engine black with a matte finish, lucky I did find a guide on how to do that, though I still have concerns regarding it. How about...

    Where's that thread?!

    EDIT: Found it. http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-mods/34043-r1-tail-swap-2.html amazing thread. I was perusing through the forum a while ago and opened one with a topic titled similar to "What to do with back end" and the contents of the thread was the guy put an 07 R1 or R6 back end on his...

    Street fighter light kit

    Okay I'm scanning through all the street fighter mod threads, my question to you guys is where are you finding light kits for these that work? And I'm assuming all these will need custom mounts and such. I will say I'd love to have a single headlight on the front, I don't like the small dual...

    Dual Light Mod--Lite Version

    Alright, so I'm still new here, and I've been wanting the dual mod since I bought the bike several years ago. I finally did it today, it probably took an hour because I've never taken the fairing off and was going slow. I would still recommend Gozilla's write-up first and foremost, however...

    Rim Painting/Carbon Coating

    I apologize if this wouldn't be good enough to be considered a 'mod' but my question is, has anyone done their rims a certain color? If so, would you recommend it as an accent color or main body color of the bike? My fazers blue, but I'm not sure it'd look good to just do blue rims, but then...

    New Member--New Hopes and Dreams

    Well I'm new here, I've had my 2005 FZ6 for several years now, and to be honest the biggest complaint I've had with it is the limited customization options. I never find decent mods to put on the bike, hence finding this forum. Also, Boneman's website is AWESOME for me because I have the...
