    I'm going on a ride about. Any points of interest. In SoCal.

    +1 here... going up the one from as far south as LA and up the coast is an amazingly beautiful ride, not to mention plenty of twisties on 500 foot cliffs, etc... first "ride" i ever went on and it was amazing, you could also go up the coast to the bay area then across through sacramento to...

    WTB full lower fairings

    I'm looking to add the full fairings to my bike. I know you can get them pretty cheap online but wanted to check here first. Even better would be if they were already painted purplish blue metallic (2006 blue whatever they call it)...

    What did you do with your bike today?

    Installed scorpion pipes i bought of craigslist for 265 shipped. I know theres been so much debate over having to remap the ecu, but now that I have opened my airbox and installed the scorpion exhaust does anyone have any last words as to how necessary it is to remap? I have a local shop that...

    What did you do with your bike today?

    I did the airbox mod (a shoddy job, too embarassed to show pictures) but it did the trick, sounds great. As to whether or not it increases or decreases power its hard to tell, so even if it lost power if its an unnoticeable amount i'm not worried about it. Now with the drilled baffles and...

    Like the look of OEM FZ6 exhaust? want more noise? dont wanna drill?

    Just came across these i think they're pretty cool, a true "sleeper" system. They seem to be only about $600.00 on ebay... although i know this is a very old thread so no one will read this.

    Cali-Utah-Arizona trip

    Hi everyone, I don't post much here but I thought I'd share a few things. I've been working on getting my bike back into good touring form after wrecking about 8 months ago. I finally got it back and all I have left to do is install a comfort seat. Well I'm going on a ride from Ventura...

    Got Bored and Drilled my Muffler

    here's mine with 3/4" holes in the baffles, sounds much better in person, especially when hauling ass at high rpms'. Sounds really good actually. use some good speakers or headphones to listen since i recorded this with my phone... I'm pleasantly surprised, but also found a deal on some scorps I...

    Spark plug choice...

    I recently installed ngk iridium's (without the yamaha tool, PITA!!!) and my bike no doubt runs much better. Smoother accel and deceleration, engine braking is smoother etc... it is not a placebo effect. Just a week before i drilled the baffles and noticed some performance gains from that...

    Look what I have done to my bike today!

    That is essentially my exact plan, though i can't fabricate my own y pipe i was gonna just have a shop do it. But those glasspacks seem like they should fit in the stock shroud keeping it clean looking and giving it a sleeper look. Sure would be cheaper than name brand pipes and i don't see...

    Fork springs from gs500e?

    HI, I know theres been plenty of discussion about fork/spring/suspension mods so sorry if this is redundant. I have some progressive springs I bought for my old gs500e, they've never been installed or taken out of the box. SO, i'm just wondering if these are universal (ish) and if so can I...
