    Time to build me an FZ6 Touring bike! Help!

    This just came to mind: Talking touring, a MUST is watertight!,- Meaning that all additions are watertight (Extra plugs, cameras, GPS etc.) When touring you don't have the option not to go out in the rain, - every once in a while you will be caught by it, - and as always, best be prepared.

    Time to build me an FZ6 Touring bike! Help!

    As I mentioned in my SS1000 thread, the only things I am missing is a better seat, and a throttle control, keeping in mind that I have the full fairing mounted, which brings me good protection from wind & water. That being said, I know that many tourers like the Givi side & top bag sets, - I...

    So my first SaddleSore 1000 attempt is over ...

    The no speed areas are broken up by speed regulated strips, so I did not run a full tank on max speed. According to my TomTom my average speed was 120Km/h. I'll do the fuel stats as soon as I fell up to it, - and post it here. It did, - without crunching the numbers, not seem to matter much...

    A question of weight ....

    The heaviest thing on the bike is the rider, - so maybe you should look into shedding some body weight instead of spending a fortune in the futile attempt to lighten the bike itself ...... Just my 2 cents :)
