I peeled it off and never tried it on the tank again. I don't think it's suitable for the tank as there's too much friction and gasoline spills are too frequent, even if you're being careful.
I wouldn't say it's "massive." It fit well with the contours of the bike. It's 12" long at its longest, 12" wide at the widest, and 8" tall at its highest (without the expandable gusset.) A box that size would be pretty hefty, but this is more triangular in shape.
The FZ-07 is a ridiculously fun bike to ride. People say how awesome the motor is in the FZ-09, and maybe they're right, but when I rode the FZ-07 I had way more fun. Featherweight and torquey, it's an ideal street bike. The throttle felt great, and the sound of a parallel twin with a pipe...
Not sure why I'm not getting any email notifications on updated posts on any threads I'm subscribed to.
Anyway, no pics on the bike as I no longer have an FZ6, but I did snap one of the bag open and drop it in the album.
This is an interesting video. Not just focused on autonomous vehicles, but all automated skills:

There are times when I'd rather not drive, but sometimes I do. I don't like the idea of not being able to drive for fun.
Sold my bike and had these parts as spares. Taken from a raven bike with a naked conversion, they're in great shape. Prices are without shipping, but I'll ship if your money is green enough. :)
Outer fairing - has flush mount turn signals mounted and wiring for "pod lights" in the...
Odd, I'm not getting email notifications about posts to this thread anymore even though I'm still subscribed...
Anyway, I personally don't think it's worth it to buy the bigger bike. The 675 has plenty of torque already and is plenty of power for the street. The Speed Triple is heavier and...
It's lighter and faster, not quite as stable. It took me a bit to get used to the different geometry. It always felt like the bike wanted to fall too easily and not hold a line, but I'm comfortable now. I always thought I'd hate the lack of fairing, but the clean windblast doesn't really...
Here are a few pics of my triples. In other news, I went for a little ride last week with my buddy who now owns my FZ6. Seeing the HID headlights come down the street made me miss it! I also realized that the Scorpion pipes, even without the baffles, are not as obnoxious as I once thought...
