My wife really wants me to get a Gixxer. I may get an '05 as a second bike jsut for fun. Wouldn't want to commute on it...

HAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha

So the FZ6R is good for something after all... Just Kidding all you 'R' owners!!!!!!! :spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank:

Someone needs to trot out a heap of safety data from Europe where you can do it most places. FYI - if traffic is stopped, it's called "filtering". "Lane Splitting" is something you do when traffic is moving.

+1 I run 34/36psi in mine as per my tyre tech.

That would be why no one has mentioned it! Thanks!

TBH I have no idea. Check out the threads about it on the FZ1 forum. Most people who do it really like it "Best mod under $50" etc...

I'd put some Pilot Road 2CTs or some Conti RoadAttacks on it and see how you like those. I never was a fan of the stock tyres and many on here aren't either. The sooner you get them off the better, in my opinion. I've had both of the above and the Contis seem a bit more round across the tyre...

I haven't noticed it wanting to lift any easier, but then again I've never done a wheelie and probably won't ever do one (on purpose). That being said, I have had the front wheel lift an inch or two under heavy accelleration - that was before the -1 so I don't know how it would react now. I've...

YouTube - FZ1 Video tutorials - Flies Mod They are the intake valves that sit inside the stacks where the air gets sucked into the engine from the airbox. On FZ1s, a very common mod is to replace the stock ones with slightly smaller ones - allowing better airflow into the engine. It improves...

Has anyone tried 'modding the flies' on an FZ6? I know it's poplar on FZ1 models. Would it do the same for an FZ6?

I just did the -1 mod. Best £15 and 30 minutes I have spent so far. As I posted somewhere else, it's not a massive change - I didn't really notice the difference too much at first - but once you have had a chance to ride with it for a while you'll love it. I now understand why so many people...

Nice one Nelly. My mother-in-law got me some 'motorcycle socks' from ALDI last year and I wasn't sure about them at the time. Once I finally wore them though they were great. I wear them all the time now and keep waiting for them to go on sale again. Both ALDI and LIDL have some good stuff if...

Dood. That's just wrong.

What is it a clip from?

Just thought I would put my 2p in on my latest mod. At first, I really didn't notice too much difference with the 15T front sprocket. There was a small difference but noting earth-shattering. Don't know what I was expecting but whatever it was - this wasn't it. I have to admit I was a tad bit...

Cool. I'm not changing just yet, I just thought it might be an interesting thread.

I love it when I find a 'hidden jewel' when I'm riding around aimlessly.

Ok, the real question is, "would you get an FZ8 when you could get the proven FZ1?" Discuss.

and I'm going to have to buy a socket to get the nut off. What size is the nut on an '07 bike? I have see 30mm and 32mm mentioned on the forum and was looking for a definitive answer before I go buy the wrong socket.
