    Givi Crash Bars...

    Otay... Adding pictures. It is a working in progress, aka - I dont have the rear blinkers yet, and the wiring is not done. First, my new Fuel Haulers (and the FE kit). :rockon: They are mounted to the inside of a Givi T351 soft bag support kit, that means 2 allens per side and...

    Givi Crash Bars...

    I fell off the map for a bit there... Wife and I are about to pop out number 2. :eek: so there has been alot of preparing stuff. Got a last minute "I need to ride!" moment and went out and bought new toys. To make a short story long, I got the Givi crash bars installed last night. Solid as...

    Triumph Rocket III

    These bike are monsters! I took one out from the local Triumph dealer in Illinois and they are crazy powerful. Enough torque to make the back end squirm in third if you hit it hard enough on the 2-3 shift. If you can keep traction, 1st gear launches like a bat out of hell. And the...

    Oil Drain Valve?

    So I have read horror stories about stripped oil pan threads... This past weekend the guys and I had a bike maintenance get together at my garage. Apparently a gorilla put my drain plug in at the factory, and my buddy cracked his GSXr 600s oil pan. I am strongly contemplating a drain valve...

    Urgent Turn Signal Wiring Question--Which is + and Ground--Please Help!

    Have not done the FE kit, so take this with a grain of salt.... But, most of the time I have dealt with 12v, black is negative/ground/common... Hope that helps. Might want a second opinion but i am 99% sure black is it. Most turn signals, unless you have polarized LEDs, will work if you...

    Carbon Fiber or Aluminum Cans?

    I agree 100% :rockon: My want list for Mods keeps getting longer and longer, which means the aluminum are looking better because of cost. :D But if there is a signifigant heat difference between the 2 I think I will hold out for CF.

    Carbon Fiber or Aluminum Cans?

    I want to go with an aftermarket exhaust, probably 2Bros - but I have a concern. My softbags sit against the stock exhaust heat shroud. Can anyone speak to how hot the Aluminum VS Carbon FIber cans get compared to the stock heat shrouds? Does anyone currently have any aftermarket...

    First Gear soft bags

    So I picked up my FZ6 about 3 weeks ago and on the second day of ownership I knew I had to have bags. I came from the cruiser world (had a HD) and the lack of storage I figured was the first obstacle I would need to overcome. (Second is highway pegs, still thinking about that one.) Just...

    New member welcome thread..

    Howdy all, Jason here - got my 09 Fz6 about 3 weeks ago. I enjoy the heck out of it, but there are still some things I am getting used to as my prior bike was a Harley. (First questions was "where do i put the hwy pegs?") Already come up with a parts list of all the mods i want to do...
