    brake hose brakets

    what I ended up doing was I ordered a set of brackets from the fz8, they are very thin metal and very pliable so not as sturdy as the stock 07 bracket but anyway. all that is needed is to rub off the locking tab that sits in the fz8 forks and job done. I actually completed this job not long ago.

    red key

    while i never tried it on the bike, i have been ages using the red key on my car, it works no problem, i had a spare key made and stored the spare key while i kept using the original red key. the red key is the one that houses the software to program the other keys.

    What are the chances I wrecked my motor??

    did you ride the bike soon after the spill? or was it towed home? if you did not ride it the motor is most probably ok. the bike shuts itself off when it falls over. it does have a tip over switch

    Just ordered the FZ1 handlebar :)

    hi adrian, i have installed the fz6r on my fz. as for rise it is identical to that of the fz bar. as for sweep i cannot really say as my fz bar was bent and so i could not compare. as for width they are the same tho. what i noticed tho is that the fz6r is slightly better bent than the stock...

    Picked up an 04 Today

    you could have written 'brand new' instead of 5200 miles! it looks that mint. welcome on board and enjoy the fz. it will give you thrills by the bucketloads. i would check for any rust tho in the gas tank, with so few miles it has stood still for a very long time, and if the fuel tank was...

    Metzler fans... Help- z6 vs z8's

    from what i remember the z6 is the older tyre and i think it was replaced by the z8, so i would look at the z8 since the z6 has been a couple of years out of production. the z6 are not featured in metzeler's site. i can give you some info on the z6 tho. my friend uses them on a suzuki 750...

    California helmetcam: Roadrager stops to slap rider in the helmet

    i like the way he walks! to me it seems that he stopped right in the middle of the road, as the lights seemed further up. so might have been a potential hazard to other road users. I think he better check himself

    Chinese Radiator

    hi, i do not really think/believe that the 04-10 radiatiors are different. the side covers are different yes but the mounting points for the rad and the side covers should be the same afaik. i do not have any experience with these chinese radiators, just wanted query your statement about...

    Crazy homeless dude tried to mess with me

    wow what a reality check this incident gave me. i never taught much about homeless, we do not have a lot of them in our county but we do have a lot of immigrants who are invading us, so yeah it helps to keep your cool and maybe a small knife

    Best place for tank bag strap?

    nice suggestion by ssky i like it. what i meant by headstock is the part under the fuel tank where the frame tapers to meet the steering. i pass the strap of the tankbag in front of the two small bolts that hold the tank in place. i found a pic on google to show you the headstock

    Chevyfazer wrecked again, bad this time

    i'm very happy that you are alive and recovering. the good thing is that you crashed in a long stretch of road that enabled you to slide and not hit something that would have stopped your slide abruptly. heal quick

    What's the down side for you after losing weight?

    hi nelly. congrats for your weight loss! keep the jogging up! as for the helmet, can you buy a cheap ass helmet (that is still ece/dot approved) old models tend to be heavily discounted until you can fork out the money for a decent lid that you like? i know its a waste of money just to buy...

    Aria A Great Helmet, or overpriced?

    Hi army. you did fine in getting arai, they are one of the comfiest (and most expensive) helmets you can get. arai was pioneer in making particular models for the different head shapes. i do beleive arais in general are great helmets but way overpriced compared to some very valid competitors...
