    Epic 4 day Ride through Central California with Moldmaker & Lefty

    No, just making sure we were on the right path. Many roads were just single lane paths heading for miles through farmland.

    Want a Shoei full face with internal visor? YES!!!

    But that is a flip-up style, not the same as the GT-Air which is a REAL full-face helmet.

    Valve Clearances FZ6

    I have reused every time and have no leaks of any kind. Just clean the aluminum surfaces and reinstall. You do NOT need any silicone sealant.

    Camshaft profile, anyone know the specs???

    That ring is for the cylinder identification sensor. It tells the ECU when the cam is in position for TDC for either the combustion stoke or the exhaust stroke of cylinder #1. The FZ6 doesn't need that sensor as it simply fires the spark plugs and triggers the fuel injectors for 1-4 and 2-3...

    What kind of tires are on your FZ6?

    I have run Bridgestone BT-023 for the past 16000 miles. I get about 6000 for each rear and 9000 for each front. I don't have any problems keeping up with the guys on sport compound tires...just ask around.

    Valve Clearances FZ6

    Hey Scott, no removal of the throttle bodies are necessary. As far as engine use, I am probably more conservative with the throttle than most other owners, so that might have some effect on the valve wear. However, I do run longer oil change intervals than most FZ6 owners, at least 8000 miles...

    Valve Clearances FZ6

    I have checked mine at 26000, 52000 and 75000 miles. I have never had to adjust any valve. In addition, on the latest check, every valve was in the middle of the tolerance range. Of course, every motor and owner is different so this only relates to my FZ. For example there are some members here...

    R6 Adjustable Fork Swap Kit! (Forks, Brakes & Spacers)

    It seems odd that you haven't had multiple offers to purchase this upgrade. It offers more performance/dollar than any exhaust system and will transform the braking action from massive diving to controlled compression. Great price here, people. Somebody snatch this up!

    Portland Oregon: What do I need to see?

    Quite a coincidence, huh? My goal is to sample the efforts of at least two different microbreweries each day. I toured and dined at the Full Sail facility last time. At another pub I had a Mt. Hood Cloudcap Amber Ale that was perfectly balanced. Thanks to each of the replies so far, I truly...
