    frame slider torque spec

    hey all, after installing frame sliders, can anyone tell me what the torque spec for the two engine support bolts is? just want to make sure i got this correctly tightened. i know the manual lists torque specs for most everything you can remove or replace, but i cant find specs for these...

    Pazzo Levers worth the $$$???

    yep, after two months of use, i would have to say they are a smart purchase. but...mostly for looks? i honestly cant say they make a discernable difference in what they do. which is disengaging the clutch, and applying the brake. really. now, rizoma rear sets on the other hand.....

    What would or is your second bike?

    yeah true, i do find the untertail exhausts rather handsome. and sensible as well. what looks worse than a guy who fixed up his downed bike except for the bashed up exhaust hanging off the right side?

    pureone filter *

    i like the k and n filter as well, and for that reason. the end has the same size nut on the end of it as the oil plug, and how simple can that be? however, im anxious to try out the new pureone, with the sandpaper finish. thats got to be a snap to get on and off, when your hands are oily...

    taillight mod!

    ill chime in. having an integrated unit to "clean up the back" and "look good" does not outweigh me wanting the highest visibility and clearest signal of intention when i am out riding. or stopped. or turning. a cool look is not something i would risk my safety for. plus, i happen to like...

    pureone filter *

    a note on the pureone pl14610- i bought a few online, and though the photos show it to be a blue color, its been modified to a deep gold color, like the inside of a butternut squash, and better yet (as if that color choice is not good enough already!) they are now fully covered in a sand paper...

    Puig Windscreen Smoke

    odd, but i find the puig aftermarket (dark smoke) i put on my 07 is thicker and of better quality plastic than the stock. the stock screen scratched up easily, even when using a soft cloth and plastic cleaner for keeping it clean. i cant imagine anything being as cheap and flimsy as the...

    Puig Windscreen for '07

    i dig the dark smoke on mine. the install was, to say the least, brainless, and as i am not one to tuck in or use a camera, the dark color was the only choice for me. the decrease in wind noise is minor, i got the slightly taller racing model.

    Best crash bungs???

    at bonemans fine suggestion, i went with these: they even feel slippery to the touch. i think they are more than just plastic, with some sort of silicone mixed in or something to that nature. motovation.

    My new fz6 S2 N ABS + 2Bros & Xenon frontlight

    super nice. great choice of color and for keeping it simple and clean and streamlined. i think i would be a bit nervous putting my fast blue 07 up against that...

    Dumb question. How often do I lube the chain?

    great question. i too would like to know, as my only other bike is also a shaft drive. i am sure it depends on riding conditions (dry, dusty, wet etc) but lets hope someone has a good guideline to follow they can post up!

    Look what followed me home

    congratulations on your new bike! heh, i see you are already training a future rider as well....what a cutie! you will have some hard work ahead of you however. you see, your friend got the faster, more stable and better handling blue color, which is how it stands now. i look forward to...
