So after seeing that almost all new Yamaha sport bikes (except the FZ6) have a theme on the front fairing of a stripe above the right headlight and the model name above the left, I came up with this idea.

this is just a first draft, if you will. The final would be in white likely, as the black would not show up very well. I suppose I could do other colors to match the paint of the bike too.

So, what do you think?

Very cool! Wished I woulda thought of that when I did my windscreen....

Also, I haven't forgotten you on those lowering pegs. I'm going to try and see Speedy tomorrow.
 
can you post an example of what you're trying to achieve? i haven't looked close enough to see what you're talking about. and maybe it's late, but it's hard for me to translate that to a bike. be nice if you had done it in white and had a pic of it on the bike.

having said all that, my initial reaction is "i'm intrigued" :thumbup:

Great work keep it up! Looks pretty sweet.

Glad my old windscreen is getting some decent use instead of hiding in a closet lol
 
Not being abe to see an older FZ6, can't really say. It's not going to work on a newer 07+ model though.

On your's - maybe.

(if you're thinking of doing some FZ6-forum stickers for general use though.........:thumbup:)

I would have to do a complete redesign for 2007+ but I still think I could come up with something.

FZ6N would be out of luck on that, but it would be pretty easy to do some forum stickers if there was a demand.

Something along the lines of the website url in the font of the t-shirts (below) would be nice. About the size of windscreens to run up the length perhaps??? Various colours to suit different bikes.

Unfortunately I have no way of making, so just an idea if someone has the means and there is a demand.

I like what you're shooting for there with the FZ6 and the pattern on the otherside. I think white might be too bright though. Maybe a charcoal grey or something I dunno, I'm not that great with color schemes :thumbup:
 
i m all out on your idea it really suits the bike.. there was one member who did his windscreen similar to this however i cant remember the name. it was white on both sides with blue piping and fz6 on the lhs of the bike.. i would go white or red to match the bike as black would not show since under the windshield theres black plastic

I think it might have been Vegas Rider....

The final product would be white to match the Yamaha factory theme.

I can produce these and sell them if anyone else wants this too.

Also, since I created that FZ6-Forum logo, I could also do a decal with the font as shown on the shirts.

I was thinking of doing face shield stickers like this:
