    The phoenix rises!

    After high-siding my FZ6N race bike @ 110km p/hr, nearly 4 months ago, today she was back on track! I decided to fix it instead of parting it out. 2003 R6 forks, calipers and Dako adapter kit. New YSS rear shock. New Dunlop race tyres. front wheel straightened and trued up. $45...

    Sport tires in the wet?

    The new dunlop roadsmart 3s are **** in the wet. just road tripped 2500kms for 2 weeks on a new set over some snow capped mountains in Victoria, Australia, and wasn`t very impressed at all. Great grip in the dry, got them over to the edge with confidence, but in the wet they feel like ice...

    Highsided the **** out of FZ6 while racing..

    cheers for the well wishes. Myself and my bush mechanic mates have had a close inspection of the frame and it looks unscathed. I removed the forks, fairing stay bracket and radiator and gave everything a good cleanup, and from what we can see there`s no hairline cracks anywhere. the triple...

    Highsided the **** out of FZ6 while racing..

    I`ve come full circle. Had an FZ6-S as my first step up bike, 4 years ago. Sold it and regretted it ever since. My road registered bike is now a K1 GSX-R 1000.. uncomfortable as ****, but crazy awesome power. 6 months ago I purchased a race ready, 2006 FZ6-N, Ex - Yamaha cup, minus the pimp...

I like the Fz6s too much to punish it around the race track and probably, inevitably, drop it.... two very different bikes tho... fz6, much more comfortable.. gsx-r a...

    First track day. DO IT!!!!!

    i`d been told to fold back the mirrors, but i forgot, and as far as the pegs go, gotta get those toes on `em, not the heels ay? i couldn`t believe the speed you could hold though the corners once you really started trusting the tyres. Also, you sure know it if you get your line right and...
