Hello all,
I've decided that I would put my Leo Vince Titanium exhaust up for sale. I am asking $375/OBO that is including shipping to continental US.
Here are a few pictures of it:
Here are the rest of the bits:
I have an 08 and it required a sleeve to fit...
The snow has finally melted and it got a bit warm today so I decided to put on the new Gopro and take a ride. Here is my FZ6: Edit attempt 1 youtube - YouTube
Ok, so I just reassembled the bike after getting it painted over the winter months. It was a cosmetic upgrade. The motor has been left alone and was running great. We put new plugs, air filter and fresh gas in it.
So the bike will start, but has an extremely low idle and if you turn the...
There are tons of mods out there, but which is the best?
I guess the purpose of this thread, would be to help people make the best decision as to where to start modding their bike. So I suppose please put an approximate price and necessary skill level to perform it yourself.
What are...
A question for those of you out there with either the FZ1 bars or drag bars. If you put these on the fizz are you able to still use the steering lock?
Cheers
I have to go to Grand Rapids, MI the last week of July. I was planning on riding up and then riding to the Upper Peninsula. The route I was looking at doing is MapQuest Maps - Driving Directions - Map
Has anyone ridden around the Upper Peninsula? I've never been there. Thoughts?
Does anyone else get large banner adverts when they are on the site? It is driving me nuts!?! Some of them block the majority of the screen and have no X I can click.
So last summer I eclipsed 10,500 miles. This year I've done a few hundred miles and I have noticed a change in the pitch in the exhaust. It seems a bit throatier now than before. My buddy said something about it having a lower/louder sound as well. Has anyone experienced this? Don't get me...
So, I dumped ol fizzy two summers ago and got it all pieced back together in time for riding last summer. Part of the repair was we repainted the bike. When we did the tank we obviously took off the Yamaha emblems. They were raised emblems, not a flat sticker.
Anyway, I ordered some from...
I had the opportunity to attend the expo this year in Indy. My dad and uncle had me tag along with them to keep them company. Here are a few pics that I snagged of the bikes that were on display.
There are a couple more pictures in my album feel free to browse.
I know a lot of us have been getting pounded by snow and ice. Here are a few pictures of my truck as a solid block of ice. The road is solid ice as well. What are you guys sporting?
I got the first ride of the year in today. It's the first time since going down at the end of next year. It was great to be back on the bike. It was a short ride but made my day. Just got it all back together after repair and paint. Now I'm ready for the summer.
Well the bike is all painted. Here are some pics. We'll get it put together soon! I can't wait for the weather to get better. The colors seem to change in every picture. It is really "ruby red" when it gets warm perhaps that color will be easier to see in the sunlight...
Hey all,
I had several people ask about how I mounted the "04-05" bellypan on my 08. I had my dad make me some brackets. They are a heavy metal brackets, that are custom made to fit this bellypan to the FZ6
Because the 04-09 are basically the same, these brackets should do the job to mount...
Well in putting the bike back together I decided a belly pan would be a nice addition. Here it is mounted up. We changed the mounting bar by the oil filter, made it thinner. Of course it will all be painted up, when the rest of the bike is. The paint should be in Monday, so that will be in...
I know someone out there who has converted to a different bar wants to sell me their old stock bar. :thumbup:
Let me know if anyone has anything. I am working on putting my bike back together.
Cheers!
Well the "work" is done. It's now onto paint and prime. I'll post those up when it's finished. If you want to see how much I screwed it up just look in my album.
Here a few pics of where it's at now (there are more in an album):
So... it happened yesterday. I highsided my bike. It was all totally my fault. Just a bad series of decisions. A turn snuck up on me, I wasn't really going to fast, it was more I wasn't really mentally paying attention. So I ended up being ejected from my bike doing 40ish. Thankfully I...
