Yeah, you could look in the Trade Practices Act and probably find their advertising isn't meeting their requirements re motorcycles etc But here is the big issue. Modern marketing, especially in big companies has a focus on customer service exceeding expectations. Think of it like this, my...

try and sell those mods!!!! like the exhaust, belly pan etc. I personally have done 7000 kms in 5 months and only about 400km on the freeways. I choose the country roads and rarely pass any cars. Lets face it, the radar guns used by police only work on straight stretches of road, so fang it in...

2 state troopers both went to jail down under for a similar offence back in the 70's. 1. for being drunk and going through a stop light and killing 4 students 2. for aiding 1. in a story about drinking after the accident that raised his blood alcohol level. sad story. thoughts for the family.

However, I would really like a Harley. When I am too old for this FZ6 sportsbike, I will get one. Pic of my mates brand spankin' new Soft-tail leaving our meeting last night. Ride On

My mate just picked up a 1969 Honda 250 for $250 and has started restoring it in his carport. Plans on riding it occassionally. Is driving his old lady nuts now as he has 3 bikes in the carport.

My stylish luggage is a 20 year old Cheong Lee sailbag strapped on with bungee cords. All I carried was a raincoat and underwear!

http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDV17003.shtml Heading up to visit my mates for our monthly motorcycle club meeting. (Shepparton) It is 300km there tomorrow and about the same on the way back on Friday. I go accross the Great Dividing Range and it cools a bit in that area. Might post some pics...

For me, Yamaha have developed their engines and frames to the extent they are the GP world champions. This shows in my Fazer. Honda are well known for their finish and reliability, they are good bikes. The FZ6 has something different though. The only way you will find out why we all have an...

my advice and it is just an opinion, is this. Head to dealer and buy a spring and cable. Put the cable under your seat as a spare just in case the old one does break one day in the boondocks. Replace the spring assembly now. My own spring isn't doing a great job of returning the cable all...

the Fazer has great headlights at night! glad you are ok though. well done to sustain minimal damage at such speed! Rumpole

very cool and useful information. I have been putting a few small scrapes on the outside of my right hand mirror when I park it in the garrage next to my car. This feature will stop that damage and also make it easier to throw a sheet (bedsheet) over the bike when I cover it to reduce dust...

by the looks of the footage on tv, he certainly hit it allright!! :Flash:

whoops! may appear the only blow he got from that georgeous wife of his may have come from a golf club to his head!!! the fool probably keeps a set in his bedroom!!!

Nice lookin' bike and a nice day for ridin' as well. Looking forward to this rain pissing off down here soon. Been our wettest November for some time. Thanks for the pics. Rumpole

Bikepoint and tradingpost online will tell you what the market says your bike is worth. Be realistic, there are buyers out there for there for the FZ6 as it is a great machine and holds its value. Check SEEK.com for work bloke and in my case, I would want to make sure you get a good reference...

I am replacing my rear 180/55 ZR 17 tyre. If anyone else has a brdgestone can they tell me what they paid for it? has the factory BT020R and the lasy guy I rang says it is superseded by the BT021 and quoted $300 for a rear. Do I need to replace my front at the same time and match the BT021...

It actually is a tool! An Old Timer skinning knife. oh yeah, and my personal insurance. Ive carried it everywhere with me since I was 18, airports, backpacks everything. Just goes to show you aye
