    Torqued Frame?

    That.... Is pretty freaking hilarious. Thanks again for the advice! The bike lives at my mom's house, so I will check it out next time I am over there. If I remember right, there is probably a compound problem because I'm pretty sure the handlebars themselves are bent a little. While that...

    Torqued Frame?

    Hey guys! So I picked up a 2006 FZ6 about a month and a half ago off Craigslist. Guy said he had dropped it low speed in gravel, never bothered to fix it, and rode it like that for a year. Then he decided to sell. Basically, all the plastic on the left side of the bike was trash. I got Dev's...
