    ALMOST killed my battery today

    Okay, this is related to a post I saw here not too long ago asking if you turn off your engine with the kill switch or the key. Well, for now on, I'm going to try to get in the habbit of using the key. I pulled up to the Champions Honda Kawasaki Suzuki place <I know, I know... :ban: >...

    First Bike and New Owner

    Hey, welcome aboard! Congrats on the new bike... looks great! And only 2600 miles on it when you got it? Nice. :thumbup: Enjoy!

    So I went down today....

    Glad you're okay. Glad you were wearing your gear. People often get complacent on a short ride like you were doing and forget (or don't know) most incidents happen very close to home. Again, glad you and the bike are alright.

    2008 FZ6-Forum Tribute Video!

    Very cool. :thumbup: Neat to be able to put faces to the names. Maybe one day I'll get a half-way decent pic up. Wait, who am I kidding... no such thing as a decent pic of me!

    How many miles did you get out of your Stock Rear Tire?

    Used my tire until the wear indicators showed it was time to replace them. On the front tire, it still had more life left (and it was at 17,800), but I was about to leave on my trip to Tennessee and wanted fresh rubber. Oh and I was running the Dunlop D252 tires.

    How many miles did you get out of your Stock Rear Tire?

    I've always been surprised how quickly some people wear out their stock tires, but I also understand some people are much more aggressive in their riding than I am. I'm wondering how many miles did you get out of your stock tires? For this poll, we're using the Rear Tire. I got 10,800 on...

    Run into any pricks like this.....

    :rof: I get this image of a big ol' fire engine with it's driver getting that little smirk on his face as he acts like he's going to weave into the @$sh0Ie cager. As far as whether it's happened to me... Yep, I've had it happen too.

    new FZ6 owner

    Welcome aboard! Glad you're liking your Fizzer. In answer to your question, yes, the blue ones are faster than almost all of them. Only the Red one is faster than the Blue. :rockon: I am also 5' 6", but have not had the seat lowered. Guess I'm just use to it the way it is. I did get a...

    Can you ride with the BRIGHTS on?

    Brights on 100% during the day. My FZ is a 2006 and still running on stock battery. I seem to remember reading that for the charging system to be effective, your RPM's should be over 4K RPM's.

    What gives: the 20ft "gappers" at lights?

    +1. I seem to remember back in Driver's Education in California we were taught to leave about a two-car gap between us and the car in front for that very reason... if you are rear-ended, with that gap you will not rear-end the car in front of you.

    Horrible jokes.

    Two guys die and go to Heaven. St. Peter meets them at the Pearly Gates, but he can only let one of them in. After talking with them a bit, he discovers they were both poets on Earth, so he decides they're going to have a poem contest. "I'm going to pick a word, and then each of you have to...
