    Cagers

    I too was pleasantly surprised at the good cager story . . . . :thumbup: but it does highlight a vunerability of the rear lighting on put FZ6. I tried an LED "rear and stop lamp" and really didn't like it. The beam pattern was too narrow and was not as bright as the conventional lamp. As...

    More annoyingly why don't the helmet manufacturers give an indication of shape head that the helmet is designed for . . . - ROUND - OVAL - ROVAL I wear a Caberg Trip/Rhyno in XL, but the Caberg V2 in XL doesn't fit, it's too tight front to back . . . There have been some helmets in XL...

    Throttle Position Sensor Issues (Are you Experiencing Poor Idle/Mileage, or Stalls?)

    How spooky . . . . I got a letter from Yamaha this morning regarding the TPS recall. I'm the second owner of the bike and they (Yamaha) had got my details from the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency) even though I had sent them the change of ownership slip. I had looked on the...

    The one headlight on the "Home Page" bike...

    I've wondered the same, although not an issue for me as I've got BD43's excellent dual headlight mod :thumbup: I've had a really close look at the photo and am certain it's not been "flipped" so I think needs clearing up as it is definitely confusing for new Fazer owners (an maybe a few...

    RIP - Shoya Tomizawa
