I was in a similar position. I have considered the Ninja, new Versys 1000 and the FJ09. I think Rider magazine had a shootout of the Versys, DL1000 and the FJ09 a couple months back and came to the conclusion that the Versys was the winner but everyone raved about the FJ's motor and fueling...

I am 490 a year for full coverage in Southern Ontario for a 04 FZ6... Insured with TD Primmum... Ride an average of 20,000 KM a season. Clean record

Jezebel... Cause shes been a whore of biblical proportions... hehe

Slightly over 70480 km ... This was the most recent odometer shot taken when I finished a 21 day tour to Alaska and back on her... 13006 km in one trip... Began the year at 52048... Its a good sign when you are clocking a tour by the amount of oil changes required... Haha.

I had a similar issue when I picked up my FZ6. It was after running at sustained highway speeds that it would "get stuck" in 6th gear. If I let the bike cool down a bit the transmission would release and allow me to shift the gears around. It ended up happening a LOT when I was on a...

Hey everyone I am just wondering if any of you are planning on heading to Port Dover Ontario for the Friday the 13th motorcycle gig. I rode through last year and it was pretty intense. Its rather new compared to other international motorcycle meets (Daytona, Sturgis etc.) but attracted...

I ride one handed often... And I am guilty of forgetting to turn off the blinker. haha. I cant count how many times I have had the guys I ride with accelerate up beside me and signal me (opening and closing one hand) that I left my blinker on... haha

I am just getting my ride out of the shop (stored for the season)... I had them do the inspect as I have limited tools and even more of a limited ability or time to do it. The bike is at about 49000km (around 29000 miles rough math)... The valves were all within spec. It cost me about 450...

Another Canuck here... Sarnia (across from Port Huron MI)... I ride through MI weekly.

What years of FZ6 does the pipe fit? How many miles are on them currently? Thanks

I am a little further away from Van now that I am in Ontario but I would ride over to the wet coast for a meet. Cheers

Hey motogiro, you stated that it would be fine with just slip-ons, would it affect it if you also had a K&N? At what point does a PC3 become needed? Thanks

I am wondering about that as well... I have heard that the bike will adjust automatically if the computer is reset and others have said it will run like s#it... How many of you folks have had success with a computer reset and did any of you end up going with a PCIII afterwards??

Very interested depending on price... I have talked to one vendor and they are selling the new style, have pipes in stock and are generally lower than other vendors... They are selling for 457 USD shipped...

Another Canadian is in if ya want... Living in the Sarnia area (other side of the bridge from Port Huron Michigan) nowadays so I am just around 2 hours out...
