    Does the R6 triple fit?

    what year r6 triples are you using? i'm specifically talking about the r6s or the '03-'04 triples. i already have the forks and calipers and was going to do the standard mod with shims, but i'm wondering about going this route. if so, it'd free up those parts for a cafe project i have going on.

    Does the R6 triple fit?

    Does the R6 triple fit?

    just more aggressive stops or in a totally different place? [edit] never mind. just looked at some pics on ebay. the stops are much wider on the fz6 from the looks of it. how hard would it be for a competent welder to weld some new tabs to the bottom triple of the r6?

    Does the R6 triple fit?

    hey guys, just wondering if there's a reason why people haven't just put the whole r6 front end on when people put the r6 forks on. if the stem is the same is there any reason i could just use the whole triple and tap it for a set of risers to bring the bars up to stock fz6 hight? figure it'd...

    North Carolina poster

    wish i could help, but i try to do all my own stuff. what do you need done? team powersports has been a good shop to go to for gear. if i had to, i might would go to them based on the dealings i've had with them so far.

    Raleigh NC?

    welcome to the area - assuming you make it. everyone has pretty much given you a good idea of the roads around here. main thing to know is this part of the state is still somewhat flat and there aren't many twisty road. i personally like the area a lot. no far from the beach... not far from...

    FZ6R vs FZ6 Dyno Comparison

    rather than looking at the info and have a simple discussion where they'd spend time talking about the pluses and minuses of the bikes, many of them got offended. they took it as a challenge about their bikes. honestly, seemed like a few of them had a bit of an inferiority complex. it's a...

    Flying Car FAA approved!

    that's actually pretty cool. think about how expensive air conditioning, tvs, etc... were when they first came out. thankfully there were rich people with the money to buy them so more and more could be built and bought at a more reasonable price.

    Electric Motorcycle? Would you buy one?

    nope. - product is too expensive - any gas savings are eaten up in the cost of the bike --- so no fiscal savings - last time i checked the electricity from the wall doesn't come from magic beans. it comes from coal, nuclear, etc. so it's not "cleaner" - to go into the dirty of it... anyone...

    Future of motorcycles: wanting to add a little more danger

    saw this on another forum and thought some of you might like it. Hoverbike it's pretty cool but it's possible altitude is a little much for me.
