    Upgrading to FZ1 but a couple of questions first

    Hey, wait a minute. What's this talk about UPGRADING? Many of us would argue that you're giving up quite a bit to get that extra speed. Blah You're welcome to stay, and actually, we LIKE to hear stories about poor gas mileage and speeding tickets. :thumbup: Just don't start talking abut the...

    Anyone use your mobile phones to navigate or detect speed traps?

    I also recommend Copilot. I started with the free version then upgraded for about $7. I think it's the premium level now. I upgraded to get the voice prompts so I can hear directions from my phone into my Sena headset. Good features: It works when you're in the mountains and are out of cell...

    Fazr6 fender eliminator

    I bought my bike used and one of the two POs had replaced the fender with one of those that comes with small LED signal stalks. They were small and not bright. I wanted the more visible stock signals but most of the eliminators only have a small round mounting hole that will not work with the...

    Soon to be FZ6 owner, accessories question:

    Much to be said for the topbox/backrest option. I opted for the Corbin seat, Gunfighter & Lady which I bought new (no used ones were on the market when I wanted it) and I got a backrest from a member on the site. You can see a shot of the backrest in the pic about my NY ride here (the last...

    What to See/Do at Grand Canyon?

    Thanks for the suggestions! It was a great stop on an epic drive with the daughter. Here's the short version. I did a search the day before and came up with suggestions for a one-day visit from a site called lonelyplanet.com. They suggested South rim. Come in from the East entrance -...

    Shoei Transitions Shield for RF-1200 FINALLY SHIPPING!

    Tom, Try this link. Sundowner Helmet Tint Strip - Sundowner It doesn't say much about the product. But it's just a really simple straight strip of dark tinted film that clings to the outside of the visor. It shades the upper part of your face when the sun is high, and when the sun is lower you...

    Shoei Transitions Shield for RF-1200 FINALLY SHIPPING!

    Yes Beetle, It's been over a week and I've been out in some serious sun. The shield is great. Except for early mornings and at sunset it gets plenty dark on the brightest days. We've had some bright and sunny scorchers. I've been through shady spots in valleys etc and I've had no problems...

    Wonderful Mountain Ride on US-33

    Yesterday I managed to take care of a troublesome errand and to visit a road that I've been meaning to try out. I live in Parkersburg WV near the western end of the state and needed to get funds to a Bank of America and the closest one was Harrisonburg, VA. This was for my daughter's rent in San...

    new guy, new to me fz6

    WELCOME to the Forum!!! (Best color-great choice) That's a normal response for somebody coming from a twin to an I4. This engine does OK from 4 to 6k RPM, which is pretty close to the peak for a twin. But the FZ6 peaks for torque at 10K and for HP at 12K. You'll lean to LOVE wringing it...

    Forum Upgrade

    Hi, First of all, I like the new format! Thanks for making the change. Second, I am not able to search the members list like I was able to do with the previous version. I've used the "search members" function before to try to find people near me or places where I've been or I'm going. When I...
