    Puig Windscreen, Where?

    Yup. That's the version I have on my 09. Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Strange "friction" feeling @ 22-20MPH???

    I had the same thing when I had the shop put on PR2s. I took it right back and they gave me the usual "you want it that tight because the chain will eventually stretch". That saying just seems to be thrown out there after being handed down tech to tech. It's like a right of passage to say...

    Help?

    I agree. When I roll off, I have just enough poppin to make me smile. When I first got the scorpions, it was really bad though. After installing the PCV and autotune, I had to block of AIS and it made it perfect in my opinion. You can do the marble trick, which I did for a while, but then...

    Omg. Mine just shipped on Monday! :( But yes, I can confirm $79 shipped. Would have been all over this... Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    *****FZ6 Riders: How Tall Are You?*****

    A touch under 6'3" and about 225 without gear. I'm almost all legs and no torso, though as I used to be about 165 at the same height, I'd probably say I'm all midsection now. :) Damn you Haribo Gummy Bears, damn you... Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Happy Easter to one and all

    Happy Easter! When I was taking out the trash, I stumbled across these guys (their mother tried to lead me away). How's that for ironic? Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Tail Support & Rattling

    Zack, I have the same setup (Scorpion and FaZR6 FE) and did NOT use that support bracket. There was no way to keep it attachéd without some kind of fabrication, in which I have no skills. However, I've had the setup almost as long as I've had the bike (2+ years) with no issues. I just put...

    TS Seat Owners

    Just wanted to give a final update for the forum. Yesterday, I received the "replacement" seat and it measures exactly as it is supposed to for the long version. So far I like the extra room to move a little forward and back whereas before I felt too squished into the tank without being able...

    G2 Throttle Tamer

    I think others were able to work around the length issue: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-mods/41520-throttle-tamer-not-bad-3.html BTW, where in 618 are you? My GF is from O'Fallon. Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Cam chain/tensioner issues.. please chime in

    I did not set TDC when changing mine. I just babied the old one out and put the new one in. I was being extremely careful not to touch anything else along the way. I'm assuming that if you jumped a tooth it would be pretty obvious afterwards. Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Lowspeed Lowside - Help me understand!

    I can't believe that rim! I've never seen anything like it. The throttle on the FZ6 is touchy and it's probably one of the most common complaints about the bike (and one of the few). There are a couple things that help that you could look into (power commander, throttle tamer, taking up the...

    Cam chain tensioner - help!!

    I changed mine last year with about 6k hoping to get rid of the noise. I think I got mine for $87 online. Replacement went fine; small hands would have helped. Don't think I messed anything up, but sound is the same. Both tensioners seemed identical in terms of their operation/noise. Hope it...

    2012 Aprilia Tuono Ride Review

    I have no experience with Aprilia, but I have to admit there wasn't a single fairing, lever, bolt etc. in your pictures that didn't look meticulously designed and manufactured. Just looks "put together" and seems to have a really solid feel. While yellow is not my color of choice for anything...

    redballs

    Do we have a "This thread is worthless without WORDS!" icon yet? Because if we don't, this may necessitate the need for one. :) Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Stock Rear Fender/Signals/Licence Plate Light

    Depending on where they are cut I may be interested in just the signals if you don't sell as a set. Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    For sale used shad rack

    The top rack he is selling does work with the side racks. I have the same setup and would have loved to buy this had I seen it about a month ago! Doh! Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Shad Racks

    The top rak is a fairly straightforward install, but it is very easy to scratch up the grab rail like I did (pic above). Before tightening ANYTHING down, I get it all fitted loose, ten slowly snug it up watching the screws around the grab rail. On a side note, I'm currently dealing with SHAD...

    What would you do...just came into some money

    LOL. Lone, you kill me...:D Regarding the thread, part of me feels bad for you as I know you were just looking for some friendly advice, but as someone who has been hit by a drunk driver, I have to agree with the majority of posts that felt this should have been handled with the courts.
