    FZ6 vs. Triumph Street Triple R

    Agreed on the comments thus far. I'm only weighing in as I've been seriously thinking about the STR. I have a Daytona and the FZ, and it's obvious which bike has the better goodies... brakes, clutch etc. (the 675). So I'm toying with the idea of unloading both the FZ and Daytona to make room...

    Feelers for a 2009 New England Meet (Pick ALL dates you're available.)

    Based on your screen name I guess you've ridden a bit there! For about ten years we rented a place right up the hill from the Tavern (now the Smokehouse or something). Been snowboarding the rock for years!

    Feelers for a 2009 New England Meet (Pick ALL dates you're available.)

    I'm in for a VT weekend. I have a buddy that lives at Sugarbush so I could stay with him. Hmmm, now that I think of it, I have two other friends that have condos in the same complex but don't live there. I could see if they might be willing to rent them to us for the weekend. Whadyathink...

    Hands go numb

    My hands are fine on the FZ (grip puppies) but definitely fall asleep on the Daytona as my body position is more driven forward into the front end - really need to concentrate on using knees and abs on that bike. One thing I noticed was the vibration coming from the levers. I usually cover the...

    Great News!!!! In my world at least...

    Thanks all for the well wishes! My Dad had his big operation last week and it went very, very well. 9 hour surgery followed by a couple days in ICU, and is now in a regular hospital room. No further indications of cancer, either from the PET scans or the visual during surgery. He’ll probably...

    Fz1 Bars (08 FZ6)

    I tried the FZ1 bar but didn't like it that much, personally. But others obviously do! Will send you my lightly scratched (from install - under the grips/clamps so you wouldn't see it) gunmetal fz1 bar for $20 + shipping. :thumbup:

    Thanks Eric! Crap, I've still been rather absent from the forum. Did a NH ride get set up???

    Just picked up my 2008 FZ6 last Thursday!

    The beauty of the FZ is in the riding, for hours. After a few days on the other ride I'm always surprised at how good the FZ feels. Effortless almost. If there could only be one bike in the garage, it would be this one... Or its older brother one day, FZ1.

    Great News!!!! In my world at least...

    My Dad was cleared for surgery! He has esophageal cancer and finished his chemo/rad treatments a few weeks ago. The latest PET scans were negative so he goes in for the operation Wednesday. Still going to be tough for him but his spirits are sky high! And in other news, I think I mentioned...

    Looking for oppinions on gear

    I have a pair of Shift Torque jeans, which I like a lot for regular, around the city riding. But I never wear them without full boots (Sidi Canyon) and Icon knee/shin armor underneath which are surprisingly comfortable. And if I know the riding will be more spirited I'll revert back to my...
