    I had an interesting traffic situation. I was exiting a corner gas station and needed to make an immediate left at the intersection, so I drove mostly perpendicular through stopped traffic and made it to the left hand turn lane. There was perfect visibility all the cars were stopped. Midway...

    Custom Exhaust

    Well everyone, I finally have my exhaust almost finished. I posted awhile back if anyone would be interested in a build thread, and quickly found out that I was not capable of finishing the exhaust I wanted correctly and efficiently. I didn't have the fabrication skills to make the exhaust...

    I'm hoping that someone can help me out, I have just ordered a Tracer with a rack (standaard from the accessories page). I was wondering if any one had any experience of mounting another plate or using some kind of adaptor to make a (FZ6) yamaha top box fit it. This is the rack I have on the...

    Seat modifications

    I'm still hankering for a better perch. My primary goal is to raise the ride height (mostly to ease the stress on my knees on longer trips) and make the seat more comfortable for stretches longer than ~90 minutes. I have a couple questions: Has anyone had a shop modify the original seat to...

    Cracked Fairing, Ideas for cover plate material

    So, this happened a few weeks back. Rode the bike to school and it got bumped into at some point. The bump put stress on the fairing, which we know is secured by this bolt on to the bracket coming off of the frame, and (especially with the washers I have on there) it cracked the fairing...

    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...

    EBC clutch kits = not for full synthetic oil! Wha???

    Anyone else notice this? This summer I would like to make a pass at the local 1320 and a solid launch is something I rarely subject the bike too! That said I would hate to grenade it for entertainment! What kits have been used and which have steel backed frictions vs oem aluminum which we've...

    Harbor Freight Tire changer

    It does work, although you will need to do some modifications to make the job al lot easier. First thing is bolt the changer down to an immovable object, I have it attached to a 2' x 4' x 3/4" thick piece of plywood and it did work but would be a lot better solid mounted. Buy or make the tire...
