This is something we can all shake our fists at...
So i go to get the bike back today after the shop had the tires high speed balanced by another shop (yeah, i know) Well...i wait 30 minutes for them to 'drive it around' from the shop...and the clip is broken off the adjustment screw for the...
Granda...thanks for the 411! Nice to see you're in the area too...I'm about a mile out of Huber in Vandalia.
JJBellon...I'm definitely interested in full front cowl if you still have it.
I'll send PM.
Your last sentence made my night. It's been years since I balanced tires when I worked as a mechanic in college...and i thought to myself "this can't be right" when I saw the opposed weights.
It's the LAST time I do business there. Thanks for confirming what I was thinking!
Had some new tires installed. Get on the road...shimmy at 50mph and up. I go back...and they agree to rebalance. I pick it up...take a look at front tire...yep...additional weight on it. Take it for a ride...and more shimmy...now a wobble effect! I look at the front tire again...two weights...
Thanks davey!
I considered going naked...but it sounds as though it is the same cost roughly. My last bike was naked too...so I eventually landed on keeping the cowl.
I think I could be persuaded either way at this point. I just don't want to pay for a new cowl at the dealer!
Hey everyone...i'm trying to figure this out but figured i'd ask in case anyone knows off-hand!
Would a 2005 cowl fit on a 2007? I know there were *some* changes between the years...
I have a 2007 with a cowl that's pretty busted up...and I can potentially purchase a 2005 cowl but don't...
I recently purchased a 2007 FZ6 with this installed. Sounds great, just too loud for my tastes.
I've checked prices...despite not being brand new (but in great shape as you can see) so I'm asking $250 plus shipping.

Sorry for misleading...I just bought the bike and the previous owner said two brothers. It is a Leo Vince apparently...sbk or something like that. I'm gonna post a pic and put it up for sale ASAP.
Hey ya'll...
Just sold my 2000 Kawasaki ZR-7 Ninja and bought a 2007 FZ6 that needs some TLC. (It's my third bike, but I'm still learning this stuff)
The front cowl is pretty damaged...I'm wondering if I have an option to go naked or just replace it all? Which would be more cost effective...
