I bought a new battery the other week off of newegg, $45 and free shipping. Came charged at about 12.8v, I stuck it on the battery tender overnight anyway and it started the bike right up for the first time in 4 months. :D So nice to hear that sound. Newegg.com - TMS Ct12b-4 Gt12b-4 Yt12b-4...

Cash is king. When I bought my FZ6 I didn't have have the cash as I was waiting for my other bike to sell, so I let the PO ride it up and down the street. When I came back a few days later with cash in hand and ready to buy, then I took it for a spin. Even with cash, I would decide based on...

I'm 5'10" and IMO the touring screen definitely cuts down on the wind in the face. I've been using the stock screen recently commuting to work and my head seems to bob around a lot more with it. If you're doing significant amount of long distance highway speed riding, +1 for the touring screen.

Figured out my buzzing is the clutch lever. As soon as I covered it with my hand the buzzing stopped. My clutch lever seems to be very loose, about 1/4 inch play up and down, is this normal or can it be tightened?

My bike (2007) makes the exact same noise. Soon as I hit ~6500rpm, buuzzzzzzzz... Did you figure out what is causing it? Anyone else have this issue that can chime in?

Everyone gets a wave or a peace except mopeds and scooters. Does anyone else wave to bikes while you're in your cage or is that just me?

2007 with 4900mi, only mod is a touring windshield, paid 4300

I took the long, windy back road home from work today. You are absolutely correct :D

Just placed my order. :thumbup: Hopefully it will ease up my sticky clutch lever, my wrist is starting to hurt.

Awesome, thanks for the input. I will definitely look into some grips and lubing everything up. After some long rides this coming week I'll see about levers and TB sync, too.
