    Bikemaster Daytona Handlebars?

    Sorry for yet another handlebar thread, but I could only find a couple of really old posts that mentioned these particular bars. As mentioned many times on this forum, the sweep angle of the stock bars is really bad for long distance riding. I'm getting ready for a big trip in a couple of weeks...

    Grips?

    I'm thinking about replacing the stock grips with something with maybe thicker and softer rubber to give a little more cushion and damp some of the high frequency vibes. Anyone have an aftermarket grip set that you'd recommend?

    2007 FZ6 On the way!

    I know I mentioned this here previously, but I recently got a good deal on a garage-kept '07 FZ with only 2500 miles on it. I had it shipped here from across the country and after like a month of trying to sort everything out, it's finally going to get here sometime this weekend! I'm pretty...

    Shipping vs. Fly and pick up?

    So I've reached an agreement to buy an '07 FZ6. Problem is, the seller is up North and I'm in Texas. I was originally planning to ship the bike via Haul Bikes. However, I can save a decent chunk of cash if I fly up there one way and ride back. I'm pretty busy these days, so I'd have to pick it...

    Sprocket Selection for Long-Distance Riding

    So I'm looking at stepping up to an FZ6 from my old EX500. I've done/do a lot of long-distance riding, so on that bike I went from 16/41 stock gearing to 17/38 for a little more comfortable ride: less vibration, better fuel economy, etc. It looks like the FZ6 has a bit shorter gearbox than the...

    Possible new FZ6 owner...

    Howdy! I'm looking to buy a new bike and I've found an '07 FZ6 for sale that I'm pretty strongly considering. I've ridden a Ninja 500 for about 2.5 years now and I've put a little over 22,000 miles on it. I do a lot of long distance riding as well as making pretty much all my...
