    Is there any way to make the FZ6 throttle less twitchy/snatchy in 1st/2nd?

    If you went one up in front it probably even made it worse than stock, based on my understanding of the calculations and the results of each tooth up or down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Not sure what else might work but just changed the sprockets to a -1/+1 and it changed all that twitchiness in the throttle. More low end torque, less top speed, and lower gas mileage, but no twitchiness. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Not really sure what you’re saying. I am checking my mileage based on the odometer. That said I think the first one was a fluke or miscalculation but it looks like it settled back down to 43/gal. That’s with a lot of spirited riding. Overall really like the change. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Speedo DRD speed calibrator is on and after doing the adjustments Speedo is off by only 1-2 mph on the first run. Someone asked about gas mileage, mine actually went from 43-44 up to 47 with the sprocket change after one tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Where about under tank? I can’t even find anything on it in a service manual, I don’t even know what it looks like, maybe a better approximate location if you can, thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Well, I decided to go -1/+1 and so far am enjoying it. Definitely more ready power in lower gears, as far as gas mileage haven’t finished the first tank yet but at this point I like the ready power more than the gas mileage. On another note, Speedo is way off (gps says 72 Speedo says 83) so I...

    I just want a little more pep in the lower gears, top speed isn’t an issue, I just don’t want to be cruising on a road trip at 80 and have the bike buzzing my hands and feet to sleep! Thanks for the input, maybe I’ll just go down 1 on counter sprocket and try that. Sent from my iPhone using...

    I’m thinking of changing from stock to -1/+2 or something there about. I commute 20 miles per day, love twisties anytime , but do a couple of road trips (1000-1500mi) per yr. Anyone with this set up? I’m really only wondering about the vibration at 80-90 mph on the highways. Anyone have any...

    Anyone buy from these guys?

    Website still can't be found, but cc company refunded my money since I couldn't send them back and I kept the gloves cause there's no one to return them too. So all is good I guess. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Actually doing both, from fortuna to red bluff then on to Lassen ending up in Mt Shasta. But the day prior we are making the loop around and down to Fort Bragg from Fortuna ending back in Arcata. I heard that was a good road so was curious. Thanks for the heads up on the brewery we'll have to...

    My wife and I are headed down there next month and going 36 to Lassen National Forest , been there before, but, yes it's a great road. We're also going down to Leggett to Fort Bragg and making that loop so I was curious how the traffic was down through there?
