    Frame sliders really a good idea on a FZ6?

    A bike going down with frame sliders and the frame breaking just behind the sliders has been known to happen. However, think about what parts of your beautiful bike will hit the ground. Your frame is going to hit the ground for sure without sliders. I have sho-gun sliders and I had a low side...

    05 - FZ6 - How many miles do you have on yours ?

    my 05 is at about 19K miles, and she seems happiest when she gets a good hard ride that just borders on abusive. I am on my third set of tires, need new chain, need new plugs, need coolant flush over the winter. I do regular oil changes. I honestly can say that she ran like a top the day i...

    clutch slip any ideas?

    I went on a trip the other day. We had been riding for about 18 hours off and on with fuel and coffee stops. Rode the bike across the Mackinaw Bridge for the first, and second time. Anyway at about hour 14 we got behind some dumb traffic that kept feeling the need to mash their brakes, then...

    Sad sad society

    I like the hidden kill switch idea. maybe a switch that interrupts the spark unless turned off? that way if somebody bypasses the ignition they still wont get a running bike. That and you could always slap a couple NRA stickers on the bike. They might think twice if they think the owner of the...

    I did a bad thing...

    I am sure that your FZ6 would be okay with sharing its garage space with it.

    What is it with people

    Though any accident is tragic, I get the same thing quite often. A lot of times it is somebody that has never ridden but has heard a story from somebody else about somebody else. I feel like they have to try and justify there own fear of riding. Like I said before it is normally a story from...

    For my fellow gun lovers 9mm and .223 M2!

    I would actually be interested in shooting those. Of course I would like to shoot just about every gun I come across as long as it is well maintained and in proper working order. Thanks for the pics. P.S. I had a fifty cal/ M2 on my truck when i was in Iraq. It was awesome and often times a...

    I am glad to here that everybody that you know is okay, relatively. However, I want to make sure that you know that your brother should get checked out for a concussion, if he did not already. I have spent 11 years in the army and the effects of a blast can cause mild traumatic brain injuries...
