    Problems after naked conversion

    Hello everyone, I completed a homebrew naked conversion last year: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-streetfighter/57301-she-got-peeled.html Since then, my headlight has been burning out quickly. The low beam goes and then the high beam. I thought it was because of the old bulb or maybe...

    Headlight wiring question

    Hello everyone, I am looking at converting to naked (aren't we all?) with a single round headlight. I am looking at the Aztec8 round kit and see that it uses a single H4 bulb. Currently on my '08 S2, the H4 is only used for high beam and in order to get that dual functionality I need to...

    eBay naked conversion kit recommendations

    Hello everyone, I'm trying to renew my vows with my beloved 2008 FZ6 and breathe some new life into her to make her novel again. I think I need to see her naked to make that happen. I am not very creative mechanically nor do I have a bunch of tools to fabricate parts I would need to simply...

    Not impressed with Fiamm Horn

    I recently installed the Freeway blaster on my 08 FZ and I was expecting much more. I can't really even tell a difference aside from the tone. The one I got is the Low Tone version. I am thinking maybe I have it wired backwards... There are two wires from the stock horn, black and black with...

    Oil smell from pipes, gasoline smell in crankcase

    Well, there you have it. After my bike warms up during my 1.5 mile commute, I smell the oil burning smell. It wasn't that bad at the end of fall but yesterday it was a bit more noticeable. I popped the oil fill cap and took a whiff and it smelled a bit like gasoline. Any Ideas out there...

    BC Rich WMD 5 string bass guitar

    Yup, what it says. I do not, apparently, need five strings. But what I would like in exchange for this near perfect specimen of evil and heavy metal is $400.00. I am located in KCMO but would drive a reasonable distance to meet you.

    Born again hard

    This weekend was a lovely weekend full of Fizzing... I got my 600 mile maintenance done (at 780 miles :spank:) and got my scorpions installed. Needless to say it was like a completely different bike. I must say that the symphony of valves, cylinders, and exhaust at 12,000 rpm is beautiful...

    Summer entomology

    Let's see the biggest, nastiest bug splatter that you get on your FZ. Helmet carnage also counts for this thread. Here in Missouri the June bugs are out in full effect.... I have only been hit in the chest and neck but one of these times I'm sure I'll have some pictures to show.

    First mod on my '08

    Got some T-Rex slider action for the black beauty today. I went out to the mailbox this morning and there they were. I didn't even make it back into the house before installing them. Three minutes later, all finished.

    Funny Sight

    I was riding home from work yesterday and saw a distraught lad carrying a gas can down the road. I didn't think much of it until I got about a mile further and saw his car. I knew what the car was but my brain didn't want to believe it but sure enough it was a black Lamborghini Countach. I'm...

    3/4 throttle

    ...that's what the tech at the dealer told me should be the max for the break in period. Only question is: where is that? I guessed somewhere around 8000 rpm. Haven't noticed any weird sounds/smells. What did you use for your baseline?
