Hey relax Kaz, Rossi is and always will be my favourite rider. I'm just stirring :)

1. Value 2. The fact that you can wring its neck in the first few gears and (with my lower gearing) you're still under the "go directly to jail" speed threshold. (Rode a mate's 1000cc the other day and for the same thrill factor, you're doing 140km/hr before you even know it) 3. Comfort

Ha, at least that's how Rossi always pronounces it. How ironic :)

Benny is nowhere this year. I expected better! Oh and it looks like Yoshi won't be a threat anytime soon :) C'mon Stoner, this is what we like to see.

J - haven't tried the buttons with gloves yet but seem easier to access (and are larger) than the dash buttons. Hopefully should be right.

A few things to say about this. Mainly that I think you'll find the wind noise being a compound effect from many variables, one of the least being the helmet. You bike's screen probably the main offender, secondly your height (and where you helmet 'sits' in your riding position). No one...

My multimeter is out of batteries and takes a strange one, can anyone tell me if they know which I tap? I'm guessing striped brown wire on the very left hand one but can't confirm......

Well managed to finish the install. After trying a few dozen times with loom routing and positioning, it dawned on me that there could be enough space on the dash bracket to mount the controller. There's JUST enough room for it, so in she went. Looking nice and factory now, loving it. Thanks...

For sure. Also hoping that the pressure mounts again on the two front runners. Looks like Stoner is on the up which is good. Wondering if Randy's good run will continue - looks like his bike mods have paid off (go mods!). Also got high hopes for Dovy, but not holding my breath....

Yeah can't wait. I actually thought he was on for Assen. Can't see him on the timesheets of free practice yet......c'mon Yoshiiiiiiiiii

Cool. According to what I've read, I simply use a 12VDC auto relay and wire it inline with the power, and then connected to a switching power supply from either the headlight or whatever I can find up front.

Damn, about 20mins too late :)

Hey thanks man, I was actually thinking using that mount but off the brake reservior. But looks like it would fit well on the left as you've done. Hey doesn't your left thumb hit the protruding rubber/wire section there?

Bit the bullet after this morning's chilly ride. Thought I'd post a few pics and details. Packaging is great as is the instructions. The grips are a tad oversize in internal diameter so you can slip them on easily and test your lining up before gluing on. The way I've positioned them is the...

Ah but of course! Damn these can be quite tough. Thanks for the mathletic challenge :)

Isn't my answer of 9,000,000,000 also correct?

The FZ6 is very less than ideal for touring though. It's do-able of course (I toured on my DRZ400SM one year) but what feels like a missile around town really gets legless out on the open roads.

Just bought a set of the Oxford Sports Hot Grips. SOFT! Looking forward to installing them tonight, although not looking forward to losing my favourite gel grips.

I'm going to +1 the VFR again. They're such a sweet mile muncher, and really nimble like you say. FZ1 would also be on my list, but I wouldn't want to go any bigger. For me, bikes like the FJR and Blackbird are fine and dandy along the highway, but too compromising in the fun stuff.

Bump.......anyone? Leaving it connected as it's running fine atm but interested to hear thoughts.
