Went back to the fairings on my bike so have my Demon fairing just sitting around. It is one of the cheaper ebay ones but I gutted the anemic original lights and replaced with 55w Halogen driving lights had to build a cradle for housings etc but it still mounts the same and solved all the issues...
Just what title says....I tried search here and the web but found notta. Looking for pic of FZ6's with preferably Chrome rims but Polished will get the idea across. Awesome would be Chrome Rim on all black FZ. Got chance to buy some R6s rims at great price and debating.....thought chrome wheels...
WelL F'ed up again cost me set of rims this time hit curb in the rain early am and toasted both wheels eed a set ASAP as bike is my transportation. Anyone got any around?
Still looking for stock screen as well. LMK Thanks:thumbup:
Going to put the fairings back on mine. Love the look but not the function of the naked conv. Need everything Fairings, Windsheild, Stay, Headlights,Blinker mounts, Bolts, brackets and such for those parts as well don't mind if the need a little work or color cause I have to paint them anyway...
Anyone got a manual handy that can tell me to torque specs for the clutch hub nut and spring bolts? I know shame on me for not having a manual already but I very seldom need one for anything but torque specs. Feel free to send me a PDF one if anyone wants to. :rockon: Thanks
Haven't been active much as of late mainly due to new job and working on the bike but I still lurk a few times a week. Had a nasty for me low speed crash back in Jan which broke my foot due to it getting hung under the shifter. Didn't do much damage to the bike thanks to sliders but did crack...
Well I haven't been posting on the forum much lately mostly just lurking. Been staying busy with our newborn, trying to sell the house this and that on and on. Haven't even been able to ride much other than errands and commuting but was able to get out for a nice ride over the weekend in the...
Had some time to kill today so decided to build me a new FE. Just didn't care for the look of the old one with the new exhaust. Again I just used stuff I already had didn't see the need to buy one. Used part of the original and a piece of sheet aluminum and pretty pleased with the result
Not...
Going to sell my stock exhasut and cover since I have a set of pipes now. Cover has been painted flat black and exhaust has been drilled with 1 1/2" hole and 1 1/4" in each tube. Looking to get $50 plus actual shipping. I will split them up if someone is interested in just 1 or the other...
After a long year with the FZ I finally found some pipes call it cheap or whatever but I just wasn't going to spend $500 on exhaust. Thanks to a smoking deal from wdsoccer I have some Arrows and loving it. Sound is great to me nice low growl at idle and an almost motoGP race type sound at rev...
Bought a set of Arrow exhaust from him Monday at a great price, they arrived today. Good honest guy made me a good deal and even overnighted them to me. Everything arrived just as it should have. Thanks :thumbup::thumbup:
For those that are interested I went up to bike night tonight and one of the local shops had their dyno trailer there. I figured for $20 why not see. All I have is 15t, modded airbox, cat elim. pipe and mildly drilled stock exhaust. Ended up with 84.25 hp and 144mph top speed(perfect world) in...
I am starting to plan my trip for next month and getting things in order. Those in the area or that have been I am looking for suggestions on places to stay. We'll be leaving Belton, SC on a Monday or Tuesday and returning Friday...trying to miss the w/e traffic and rush. Going to head up to...
Me and a buddy or 2 are going to head up to the mountains either Friday or Saturday anyone interested in going? Which day? All levels welcome would be nice to have a decent group for a change. Probably going to run from 178/11 up 178 to 215 to Blue Ridge and back down 276 Ceaser's Head. :rockon:
Had the new Stone's mounted up at my local cycle gear Thursday before last. Now they have a little over 1000 miles so I figured it's good time for a review. First thing I will say was while they were being balanced the quality of both the tires and the Yamaha wheels was evident. Rear took no...
Like many others I have long since pulled all the factory graphics off the FZ. I always liked the simpler look to bikes without all the flash but I did find it a little plain w/o any graphics. Since I had the seat stitched with flames I thought I nice set of ghost flames and new paint would look...
Well it's finally about time for new tires on the FZ. I have been shopping around and reading reviews etc. I have been very pleased with my factory BT020 even if they have been nail magnets....lol....but they have stepped out on me a little up in the mountains when really pushing it. So I am...
For those that have been following my post in the touring section I purchased the Cortech Sport bag system for a trip from SC to Fla. I was planning this week but due to a family emergency I had to turn around about 70 miles in. Anyway I did get to pack them with weeks worth of gear and test...
Well I'll be leaving in the morning for my cold ride from Belton, SC to Jacksonville, Fla. it's a little shy of 400miles each way and I'll be doing a bunch of riding while there so I expect 1500+ miles this week. Odom is sitting on 6646 right now so we'll see. Also going to be first long ride...
Well since Christmas I have been planning a 400+ mile trip to Florida for the week after next. So in preperation I had to get some new things for the bike to make it a better trip and then of course the "just becasue" items. Caught hell from the wife spending so much money right now but she'll...
