    Why isn't my FZ6 selling?

    The price might be too high. I don't know much about the VA region, but it may not be a hot market. 1) I bought my 2007 Fz6 about 3 years ago for $2100-$2500 (I forget exactly, now) and that bike had ~16k miles. I live in GA, a hot motorcycle market, but I bought the bike off season (for...

    Clutch Slave Levers - I'm making them again

    There were a lot of posts after he stopped making them requesting levers. It's an awesome mod.

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    Just an update, I got this socket mentioned by Raja and a fuse tap as recommended by FI for installation of said socket. Thinking of getting an SHM-10 since that's what my riding buddy uses and some kind of hydration tank bag like those mentioned in OP.

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    That's awesomely useful information. I doubt I would ever have even thought of this. It provides an awesome solution to my problems, though. Now I can hook up a USB charger without worrying about a dead battery. SUH-WEET!

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    Being switched by the ignition key is trick. It sounds like I could hook up a power outlet to the output of that plug and it would then be switched. That's what I'm talking about!

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    It took me a while to see how it works. That's neat :D It looks like it only provides a positive line, though. How do you complete a circuit? I really like the look of that. I've heard horror stories of accessory chargers (especially USB chargers) that have a steady power drain even when...

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    Pardon the ignorant question, but what are the mains? I'm guessing a power outlet in the home?

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    What headset do you use? Being waterproof is awesome. My only problem now is that I plan to use the headset all day and I'm not comfortable letting it charge on my bike's battery over night. Can you run a usb cable to the headset and charge it during use?

    Water proof Phone + hydration solution?

    Hello! I am currently investigating ways to attach a cell phone and hydration pack to the gas tank and handlebar area of the Fz6 in preparation for a 1-2 week trip at the end of this Summer. Here are the competing criteria for the set up. Must mount or hold a Samsung Galaxy S3 with charger...

    FZ-10 in US market, confirmed for 2017

    An impressive bike. I'm definitely a touring & ST kind of guy so the FZ 10 is too naked for me. I do get a kick out of rider aids these days. I'm not ready now and probably won't ever be for a bike with 160 ponies and whatever torque such an engine must make. I would inevitably do...

    Moto Insurance Rates 2016 (USA/NJ/BASIC)

    Allstate for me. Age 29, 3 years moto experience. Lost my license due to points accumulation right around high school graduation and haven't had a single ticket since I got it back. Just paid $405.94 to Allstate which beats out State Farm (former carrier) and Geico by miles. State Farm...

    Clutch Slave Levers - I'm making them again

    YES!!! I purchased a clutch slave lever years ago and procrastinated until it was too late. It's sitting on my shelf now. I've been keeping it close, waiting for this day. Yes a thousand times yes!

    Dual H4 mod gone wrong; Help!

    Well...If I had seen this before I ordered one from BD43 things might be different. Anyway, a quick update on the thread: I ordered a wire from BD43! On the plus side it's nice to support a forum member. The wire probably won't be here by this weekend and I probably won't be in contact...

    Dual H4 mod gone wrong; Help!

    It really is amazing the work you guys will do to help someone out. I cannot stress this enough but Scott saved my butt on a trip to TX by express mailing me a fuel pump O ring to stop a gas leak that had developed, then took repeated phone calls and questions on how to get the darn thing...

    Dual H4 mod gone wrong; Help!

    That is awesomely helpful! And you can call it whatever you want, just don't call it professionally installed. I am not the greatest with circuits. I can see you (and FI) are putting a lot of time into answering my questions, so I hate to ask for basic explanations. But...can you provide an...

    Dual H4 mod gone wrong; Help!

    I can't take a pic right now since I'm in a different city than the Fiz atm :( Otherwise I would do that. Sorry I'm not able to be more helpful :/ Unfortunately it seems to keep both HB and LB on when the HB is switched. I'm not sure (since I don't know what I'm talking about, really) but I...

    Dual H4 mod gone wrong; Help!

    So you use the signal from the BD43 wire as an input to the relay? I will search up the details.
