Since my bike has now had its first service i took it out for a "spirited" ride today and noticed im in need of a few items
1) power commander and/or less restrictive air filter
I love my new exhausts ..they look good and sound down right terrifying
but ive lost power,mid range is improved... BUT the last 1.5 rpm just fades away,i put the DB killers in and it revvs hard to the limiter .gotta get it on a dyno!!
2) Helmet
My current helmet is a Marushin X-Moto from when i had my motard,its a fullface,fullvisor helemet which originally had a moto-x peak,i removed the peak but it just cant cope with the air flow the FZ6 generates
3) Leathers
Filled with confidence today i was seriously leaning into the corners..i could easilly get my knee down if i wasnt wearing jeans (i scuffed my right boot a couple of times on roundabouts)
Before the saftey brigade start hatin', i dont wear jeans by choice..im 6'7" and got a 36 inseam and here lies the problem..i just cant find leathers that will fit,i only need pants/trousers as im happy with my jacket ,but i searched everywhere to no avail
This is basically me thinking out loud , the PC and helmet will come when funds permit but if anyone got a link to shops that supply motorcycle gear for long legged freaks like me let me know :thumbup:
