I know a few guys who are running car tires on their cruiser style bikes. They do lots of interstate riding and it was chewing up standard motorcycle tires very quickly. They have been doing it for a couple years without any problems but they also understand the limitations of running a...

Thats awfully low of someone to do that. Thieves suck, but vandals are even worse in my opinion.

I've observed some FZ6 bikes in the past that were fitted with the R6 style shorty exhaust that exits low, and just in front of the rear tire. It will probably take some fabrication, but if you have access to the tools, it shouldn't be too complicated. This might be a good opportunity to...

That was just brutal:eek:

That was awesome!

Just watched Tron Legacy on Netflix. Pretty good movie, an Olivia Wilde is smokin hot.

I'm in the same position as you. I actually went to my local Yamaha dealer yesterday with the intention of getting a closer look at an FZ1. Sadly, they were closed because it was Sunday.

Skip to about 1:00 and watch these guys in action... lol. And just so we're clear, not all people in the USA are idiots. YouTube - ‪Peoria Carp Hunters‬‏

I answered "no, never" but truthfully, I've always considered getting the St. Michael on my arm. It's basically good triumphing over evil, which is related to my job. I wear a St. Michael pendant, but a tattoo would be even more personal. I'd have it look something like this...

Looks like there's quite a few cars that will out accelerate the FZ6 from 0-60. Supercar Ranks Top Speed, Horsepower, 0-60 times Truthfully though, it's doubtful many of us will ever see one of these cars on the road, much less have the opportunity to participate in a "red light challenge"...

Looks like an accident just waiting to happen.

U Turns are legal in Michigan except in places where prohibited such as downtown areas and places where traffic congestion is a problem. Unless there's a sign that says "No U-Turns", they're perfectly legal. BTW, I'd say the accident was about 80% the car's fault and about 20% motorcycle...

I received these glasses as a gift a few years ago, but sadly they don't fit my face because they're too wide. The frames are a metallic champagne color while the ear socks and nose piece are rootbeer. The lenses are bronze tinted. They've been worn in the past, but are in excellent...

Short answer: All bikes will go "all the way" over. Some are better at getting back up before dragging themselves down the roadway. Better answer: The FZ6 will lean far enough to drag footpegs and/or your center stand. Truthfully though, if you're dragging hard parts on public...

I wave at all bikes except scooters and mopeds. Also, I won't wave if I'm leaned over mid-curve. Other than that, I'll pretty much wave at any bike unless they've snubbed me in the past. There are a few Harley guys in my area that won't wave to anyone unless they're on another Harley:Flip:

Wow... his co-driver hardly even blinked. Those guys have nerves of steel!

For a drunk guy, he actually drove pretty good. Granted, he crossed the center line more times than I could remember, but considering his speed and high center of gravity, he did quite well. Moving on to the reckless driving/ reckless endangerment... yes, he absolutely should be charged...

Nice new ride:thumbup: Very tastefully done as well.

Getting a Tuono is basically a pipe dream for me. My nearest dealer just closed their doors due to bankruptcy and being poorly operated. Not sure where the next closest Aprilia dealer is located. Even well designed bikes need occasional parts and service, and it's nice having a Yamaha...

I agree Kazza. The yellow one reminds me of a Bumble Bee. Of the color choices, the black one looks the most "right".
