    My new saddle.

    see this thread http://www.600riders.com/forum/bikes-parts-sale/18800-2007-stock-fz6-seat-sale.html go four pictures down and you can see the bumpers i'm talking about. TS doesn't send those with their seats. they shouldn't affect the hight but they might affect the fit of your seat...

    My new saddle.

    just a quick question... did the previous owner put all the rubber bumpers in the new seat? TS sends the seat without them. wonder if you're missing them and if you put them in if it would help with your problem?

    My new saddle.

    that's actually a pretty good call. i have to do the same for my TS seat. hold the rear up and really work to get the lip in the groove. be sweet if that's all it is.

    Audio on the bike

    what i got was cheap so there's no brand to look for. i just typed in helmet speakers and selected "item+shipping - cheapest" and went from there. the ones i tried to link in this thread are titled ATV Motorcycle motorbike Helmet Speaker Volume Control and are item # 200590784200 not sure...

    Audio on the bike

    scorpion exo-700 in this color i still have some wind noise, but the music is still audible. for earplugs i just use the cheap throw away ones you can get at lowe's in a bulk pack. i think they're 32 db plugs.

    Where does one obtain r6 front suspension??

    i checked that thread out... but to me it seemed to deal more with conversions that take more work. didn't seem to have much on the r6s forks that just take some spacers. i now see there is the address for what lerecords has... but it's not a link. maybe if it were a link i would have noticed...

    What causes cupping?

    i decided to look up the patterns and that lead me to this thread. Roadsmart and BT021 front tire wear pix my front tire looks just like the bt-021 pictured in this thread (second pic in first post). seems a lot of them in that thread aren't fans of the bt-021's. dang it! thought i did a...

    What causes cupping?

    first time using multi-quote. pretty cool tool. just so happens that i got a set of r6 forks coming to me. i'm going to go ahead and use the time to change out my neck bearings as well. here's my photobucket file. fz6 pictures by jdeano - Photobucket are you looking at putting...

    My new saddle.

    i have a TS seat and it fits fine against the tank. mine too was one of the pre-made (cheaper) seats and mine is fine in every way. i guess keeping or sending back is up to you. if i spend that sorta money on a seat i want it to be right. you'd just have to figure out if it's worth it to pay...

    Where does one obtain r6 front suspension??

    as karen said... ebay is a possibility. you can also check craigslist. if you've never used searchtempest, now would be the time to start. this will allow you to search multiple areas at once. as for what years work... there are a number of threads out there about this. basically anything...

    Newbie, just bought my first FZ6

    first, looking at your bike under your S/N i'm guessing the linked manual won't help you. second, i have no clue about the electrical problem. third, sea foam is some good stuff. you can go to any local auto parts store and they should have it. it'll be in the area with brake fluid, oil...

    Honda DN-01

    beauty is in the eye of the beholder. for someone that bike is great. i personally don't think it's all that bad. i sat on one in the dealership when i was looking for my next bike (which ended up being the fz6) and it was somewhat comfortable. not enough for me to keep looking at it. plus...

    Speedometer faults? Police Radar...

    crazy that the cops were able to know that you were getting a bad reading and they won't give you some sort of leeway to at least get the bike to a shop to get it checked out. i'd figure some sorta way to get it checked and challenge the ticket. and you are the first i've read/heard about who...

    What causes cupping?

    I guess the better question is... could something be wrong with my bike to cause my front tires to cup? Feel free to simply answer. But if you have the time, here's the background to cause me to ask that. About a year ago I asked on here about my front end being a little unstable...

    Audio on the bike

    as i stated earlier, i wear earplugs and have helmet speakers. with this setup i can hear the wind, my engine, horns, etc. and i can hear my music at a comfortable (not loud) listening volume. this is with my ipod cranked all the way up. i don't think i could listen to anything like a...

    wash, wax and..... lube??

    i guess that'd be me :don'tknow: i meant no disrespect. i've just never heard of anyone lubing their chain so often.
