Dang, been awhile since I've been around.. odd seeing you on orange ;) Looking good man :thumbup:

Looks nice, have a write up on how to do it? What kinda mats etc? How about a picture of the illumination field?

The fuel pumps looks completely different on the microfiche, and have different part numbers, but both are internal pumps, and it may work. Based on the 2006 R6s Parts... The part numbers are different. The actual number is the same.. but the model identifier is different. This basically...

Aside from the cams and thinner head gasket, the fuel injection system is also vastly different. The transmission is also geared differently. You could swap out all the parts to make it a R6 engine basically, but you'd be looking at about the same price as buying a slighty used R6S engine. The...

Glad you're ok! The first major off is a bit of a shock. The bike isn't in that bad of shape at all really from what I see in the pics. Probably could be fixed for ~$600, unless there is some other damage not pictured. Heal well and G'luck with whatever you do.

60mpg is pretty high, and not average but not impossible either. I average around 50mpg, lots of highway miles, but I've gotten around 58 before.... I've also gotten around 38mpg but I was going a "little" over the speed limit for awhile.

Ok so I just got to watch that and I gotta say that was a series of bad decisions for everyone involved. Not sure what they where thinking tearing off like that in front a cop, and the other guy going over the curb like a idiot. He switched lanes once, but that could have been to avoid...

Any parts site should have a good microfiche.. such as Mrcycles.com

Yeah.. Buy used, especially if you can find someone on this forum selling, everyone I've seen on here treats thier Fizzer right. It's a tough bike to begin with, can't say I've heard of anyones really just breaking down some guys here have 100k+ miles on theirs. I'll give you my buying...

Thanks to you, your wife, and everyone else who had a hand in this, those shirts look amazing can't wait to get mine.

I'm in NE San Antonio.. saw a Blue FZ6 heading down I-35s at ~7:55am near Wurzbach today. My bike is on the bench atm, but once I get it together maybe we can go cruise the hill country. :thumbup:

Grats man! That's great to hear could always use some more safety instructors out there :thumbup:

:Flash: PM sent

Beautiful craftsmanship on those fender brackets.
