    BONEMANFZ6.COM is now live on the Web!

    Beautiful work, Boneman :) My bedtime was delayed by a good bit so I could scope it out. I'm going to have to come back when I have more time to read it all. :thumbup:

    Remove mirror glass from housing?

    I have been contemplating this for a while now. I have been tempted to try heating up the housing, but I'm concerned the mirror itself may be held in by more than a lip in the housing. If it's also glued to the material behind it, I doubt it will come away easily. Best of luck and if you...

    chaps

    :) How strict is your workplace? You could always show up, quickly change and strut your stuff in your chaps w/just a man thong underneath. That would either encourage them, or show them you mean business :) And I thought my dad was the only one to wear chaps on a sportbike. I have since...

    A couple of great pics of Cali_rider

    I'm jealous! :D Even if there was a track close by I think I'd chicken out. Mad props, man.

    Reason to gear up (warning: moderate GORE)

    Thank you for that story, Hellgate. I've only been down once on the pavement and I was lucky. After seeing one of my coworkers get all scraped up after going down on the shoulder in shorts and a golf shirt, I bought a mesh jacket and started wearing one of my two jackets year-round. After...

    Longest trip in a day?

    My longest trip in a day is nothing compared to most of you guys. Hats off to you and your tough asses! I dream of the day when I can buy a Corbin or TS seat. We road around 300 or 350 miles in a day from Chattanooga to the Dragon's Tail and back. It was my first trip to the Tail and I loved...

    10,000 RPM's: The Final Frontier

    I enjoyed your post, Norm :) I have gotten to where I love to hear the sing of the higher R's. Empty entrance ramps to the interstate with light traffic just call to me. Then I find myself having to check up to mesh with traffic, and shifting 3 or 4 times to get to 6th. :D :thumbup:

    rude cops? share stories....

    My experiences with law enforcement has been good save one I can recall. Several have been humorous and entertaining. One stands out as being a-holeish. It was May I think and low to mid 90s as I pull up to a roadblock on my way home from college for the weekend. I don't know if the THP guy...

    LED Lighting Idea. I would like your opinions.

    I like it :) Pics! of course if you do go through with it :) I had toyed with a similar idea, but talked myself out of it. I had mulled around more of a downward facing set up where instead of illuminating the bike it threw a pool of light out and back of the bike somewhat when the brakes...

    ant_mb - Great Seller

    I received the mounts and they're just what I wanted. :) Communication was good and shipping as prompt as can be. Now I just got to get on with the rest of the mod...one day! :thumbup:

    How old are you!!!!

    I was 26 when I got my first street bike. I'm turning 30 next month. I found myself thinking...I want a bike before I'm 30. As I crunched the #'s, I found I couldn't comfortably pay for one. Then I realized, if I kept thinking..."by the time I'm..." that I'd be thinking "by the time I'm 35"...

    First outing, went down.

    :welcome: Glad to hear it was none the worse for the wear. New Enough had a nice deal on some Sidi's that I was sorely tempted to purchase. Sadly, I already have some decent riding boots and the $ just isn't in the budget for them. I hope the snow is pretty at least? :)

    Got my Bike Dyno'd

    Very nice :) I'm quite interested in your results. Well, your seat of the pants review of the results sounds encouraging. I sometimes bluesky about dynoing mine, etc. Two Bro's cautioned against Dynoing the CF cans tho. If the facility is well ventilated, or the runs separated or...

    I got backed over by a van.

    As I read your post I could almost taste the carpet my jaw dropped so much. :jawdrop: I can't believe some people! I'm glad you're alright. A hair appointment! Goodness... Get well soon.

    Shoe lace jam

    I did something very similar the 2nd day I had my FZ. I had a hole in the seam of my Carharts near the cuff. I pulled up to the stop sign at the end of my street (literally 150 feet from my house) and as I pull out from the sign, I'm caught!!! I had this bad mental image of dropping my BRAND...

    What makes you bike diff

    I guess the thing on my bike that you may not find on other Fizzers (altho I'm sure someone else has done something similar) is my crudely homemade bracket so I could mount a NEP throttle lock. My Bandit had Ejection Seat stickers on the carb covers. I miss those :)
