    Hm. I can't seem to find the FZ6 on their website. How did you get them?

    The HID kit is just for low beam. I decided not to do the high beam, since that gets turned off and on a lot, and HID doesn't do well with being turned off and on a lot. The angel eyes are the inner CCFL tube (the 60mm one) from a dual-CCFL PC case fan from Logisys: 120mm Logisys CCF120WT...

    Yeah. I thought about going the homemade route, and realized that for all the trouble, I'd probably just be happier with the Centech, so I went for it instead. I'm a fan of DIY (the headlight mod is a perfect example), but with something like the fusebox, it's more of a timesink than I'm...

    No. Everything I've heard regarding the HID conversion and the stock reflectors would scream 'don't do it', because your beam pattern will be horrible. It'll just scatter everywhere. I wanted the R6 projectors even before I decided I also wanted to do the HID conversion, but having decided...

    Thanks! I'm having my gallbladder removed. Should be loads of fun. :)

    The brackets I'm making to mount the R6 projectors inside the FZ6 headlight assembly: And finally, the Centech AP-1 fusebox along with a custom-built harness, from easternbeaver.com :

    For the R6 conversion, I'm following the writeups over on SBN, where two or three of the members have done it already. I bought a like-new set of spare FZ6 headlights, and a wrecked set of R6 headlights from which I salvaged the projectors. The FZ6 headlight housing, with the covers and...

    I agree! I suppose I could take a photo of all the misc. crap laying about for the headlight conversion, if you'd like. :)

    Well, I've had my FZ6 for 3 weeks now. I'm going in for surgery tomorrow, and won't be able to ride for about a week. Hopefully I'll be able to finish the rest of my mods soon. Completed: ------------- Zumo 550 GPS Talon T-3300ip alarm system Kisan Tailblazer tail light modulator Stomp...

    Which foot do you put down when stopped?

    I put my left foot down first, followed by my right. I can flat-foot the bike, so I'm usually stopped with both feet down (unless I'm on a hill; then the right foot stays up and on the rear brake).

    should I choose the FZ6?

    Heh. I find I'm getting around 45mpg. Then again, I'm still breaking mine in and keeping it under 7k RPM (though usually I'm right at 7k RPM). I also haven't really taken it up into the hills to abuse it yet. :) Also, I'm still on my 4th tank (I haven't had much of a chance to ride, as...

    should I choose the FZ6?

    I recently bought an 07 FZ6 after coming from a cruiser (Suzuki Marauder). When I was shopping for it, I was torn between it and the SV650. One of the reasons I went with the FZ6 is because of all the front-end complaints the SV650 gets. It's always enlightening to find forums dedicated to...
