    Gearing question

    I was in the same situation I do alot of touring and highway riding so I went with the -1 front leaving everything else alone and it is great. Turns about 6k@65, 7k@75 etc in 6th and gave me a good bit more low end torque. A little buzzier on the highway but no issues.

    ATVs are street-legal...

    I would love for them to make quads legal for road use Nationwide. That would push me to deffinately buy another but in most states you can not and the titles say clearly "off-road use only".

    Lets see your riding gear ....

    Here's mine I do like Icon gear which is a good protion of it. Their stuff seems to fit me the best for some reason. Icon Super Duty 2 Boots Icon Insulated Pants: zipout liners make them great both summer and winter downside is the don't have attachment zipper for jackets. Scorpion EXo-400...

    touring and guns

    I think some would be surprised by the number of people that carry concealed weapons especially when in the backcountry. At one time I read a study that there were more violent crimes commited in National parks/wilderness areas than any other single type of area. As far as the comment of a gun...

    Engine swap...?

    Since you read and replied prior to me editing I am glad you didn't take it wrong. I thought 1st message sounded to harsh it's still to early for me after being up with our newborn all night...lmao. If you'll look back up the order I posted everything in was pretty much in order of being...

    Engine swap...?

    Like I said before everyone is welcome to their $.02. By that train of thought Mod_street drag bikes would be making basically stock HP not nocking over 200HP. Go to your local drag strip and see what large portion of drag bikes are there, usually it's old Kawasaki litre bikes that came stock...

    Engine swap...?

    That is something I want to do eventually but it will be way down the road when this motor starts to show it's age(40k-50k). I feel a good dyno tune is a must anytime you start to mess with internals. It does quite a bit for bolt on mods so start messing with the internals and it can really...

    Engine swap...?

    No probelm man everyone has their own $.02 you know. I was generally talking new for new though FZ6 at $7k R6 at 10k although I know atleast around here FZ6 can be had for less than 7 and good luck getting an R for less than 10,500. Either way though it's 3K to play with so we'll use that as a...

    Engine swap...?

    As far as the fuel goes not sure if the R6 PCm would work...I really doubt it but it might. A Power commander and professional Dyno tune is the way I will go when the time comes. Like boneman said though a sprocket conversion will go a long way toward giving you good low end grunt and making...

    Engine swap...?

    WDsoccer I kind of had the same though as you but the R6 engine is not a direct bolt in it would be a lot of work. Turbo's have been done but not my cup of tea personally. I have been looking toward the R6 head though as that is the biggest difference between the two bikes is the top end. Still...

    "moded" my new P- Diablos

    Your not alone man...I did mine a while back too, was just waiting till I got a tire I felt was worth putting the effort into. I can assure you though next time I will do it before I put the wheels back on the bike. :thumbup: I used a paint pen as well I had one already from my old work but you...

    Changing spark plugs

    Started on mine tonight as well. Just removed the radiator mounting bolts and let it hang down a little out of the way. Immediatly started with #1 remembering forum directions said it was most difficult..no problem had #1 and 2 done in about 20 minutes then time for dinner. Just need to do 3 and...

    Advice from Experienced Group Ride Leaders Needed

    I end up leading most of the rides I go on because most all I ride with are less aggressive than me(or just less insane lol) and all said above is good advice. That being said the way I deal with having slower riders behind and still have my fun is I do my burning it up through the curves and...

    Check out the pics!!!

    I really like it, looks great. I do feel it's missing some kind of contrast somewhere though maybe a dark screen.

    Got FZ dyno numbers tonight. Max HP and Topspeed

    Only way to find out truly would be to dyno but I would guess to say from what I've seen in life and online probably around 95-100rwhp give or take a few.

    Got FZ dyno numbers tonight. Max HP and Topspeed

    I agree whole heartedly with you on that....they are real world numbers and actual hp for given conditions on the given day. Corrected numbers are to keep things in a constant range all the time regardless of conditions like they do for factory testing which is why most dyno's use them for...
