So I started two days ago. Need some little black extras on the side but as for now... It was my first serious wrap and there are some wrinkles and stuff. If I like the looks and have money I'll end up having my bike repainted in this way.

Hey. Anyone here who could give me some advice about my bike? I played a little with white wrapping film but still not,sure,about the bottom part. Anyone here willing to photoshop the bike a bit to make the lower parts of my bike fairings white in a different way? The bike is like this

I recently changed my battery along with removing datatool alarm. While doing it I attached a simple multimeter and measured the current when the bike,is off. Without alarm With alarm armed What do You think? Am I reading it right - 0.25mA for no alarm and 8mA with the alarm?

Just finished mounting, too bad it is raining :-(

Hey all, been a while since I've done some modding on my bike. But finally I got to work and this is the result :) For those interested - it is a fairly easy mod to do. The most important thing is this Home made adapter to fit the mounting holes. I went with the front mounting hole...

As dumb as it might seem I've been wondering how many G's do we get when accelerating hard on FZ6? The thought came to my mind when recently, while going really hard from 0 on the 1st gear at around 9k rpms when the bike was pulling really hard and fast I've noticed that my head is giving up -...

I write a new topic but if U think it will be better connected to other than please do so. I drilled my exhaust a couple of months ago and noticed that it sounds better, more "crispy" when the engine is cold, like first start in the morning. The backfire is also more often then. When I ride and...

Dear fellow riders. Has any of U got the chance to use the new Shoei Nxr helmet? I own the xr1100 but would like to get a new one, with better size fit. And I am wondering if it would be better to buy a cheaper new xr1100 or take some risk and go for nxr. Will the change be big enough. Is the...

It's mostly a theory but I wanted to ask. I upgraded brakes by HEL lines and gold EBC brake pads. Also put 10W for oil. I have S1 so the calipers cannot be changed without fork change. I could look for S2 forks and calipers (plug and play comparing to R6 mod) as R6 calipers and S2 calipers are...

Nothing new here, just wanted to let You know. I've drilled the exhaust today. What I used was a special mix of different tools to make a long drill. So I used a 22mm: put on this next was this and two of these Two were a bit overkill but one was too short (just...

Today, when I came home from work (quite sunny and hot, about 27 C in shade) I parked my bike and got off it to open the gate. I heard the fan on the radiator but when I looked at the speedo I saw that the temp indicator was full, to the very top. It scared me a little because what I did was a...

I had a chance to compare my S1 2006 with a friend's S2 (2008). I always thought the differences are minor and both bikes ride the same way. What I noticed and wonder why: 1. Slow speed turns - on her S2 the bike feels like it wants to turn harder than you want it to do it - the handlebars...

I am thinking hard about getting steel brake lines. But no idea what color will fit. A have a blue 06 FZ6 faired version, anyone could show me a pic how it looks with lines in various colors? Just to have any idea what to expect.

I don't know, maybe I've got small hands, but I don't have a firm feeling on my clutch lever - it grips just at the end, and sometimes I fear that the lever might slip and I stall or do a wheelie or whatever stupid/dangerous might occur. So I thought about short levers - closer to handlebars...

So, this is going to be my first mod description. Sorry for any language mistakes as I do not know to many technical terms regarding motorcycles. Anyway - I wanted to have a small voltage indicator in my bike to monitor the charging status and overall voltage as I ride with heated grips and...

I have a question regarding building a small voltage indicator. I want to place it under the windshield, next to the speedometer. I've found a wiring chart on this great forum but I am not sure if the 12v that goes to the speedo will be accurate to the battery voltage. If yes, then it would mean...
