Its a basic "ram mount". Amazon.com sells them for any model you can think of. I have the waterproof Nuvi. I think its a Nuvi 550.

The add was pasted from my local craigs. So I was definetely truing to be a salesman in the add. Im not happy that I posted it. My gut feeling is that I will be keeping it. I can only own one bike. And sometimes I want something more comfortable. Maybe I am getting old. I do a lot of 500 mile...

Maybe your right I thought it was pre 09. Was it though 07's and below? Regardless im just toying with idea of selling. I hate to get rid of it but I just want something more comfortable on long trips. I have done all the modding I can do for comfort.

One owner bike. Asking $4300 I have babied this thing to death. This bike has no annoying mods that take away from the bike. The bike has 12K miles which is nothing for a well taken care of machine. I use this bike mainly for trips and commuting. Essentially I just want more of a cruiser bike...

I know this is an old thread but I am interested in a Tiger 1050. As far as overall comfort is the tiger better than the fz6? Im thinking i need something more comfortable on long rides. I do a lot of 500 miles jaunts on the fz and i end up beat down after every one. Ive modded for comfort as...

Ok guys thanks for all the responses. I did get home ok. It was a long stressfull day. Ended up being 11 hour trip for 550 miles. When I discovered the tire I was to far in to turn back. Ideally the obvious answer was stop and get a new tire and then continue on.There was very little in the way...

so i im traveling from minneapolis to northern michigan this weelend. 550 miles each way. im on way back now abput halfway to mineapolis. i noticed 100 miles ago im showing steel down the center of rear tire. i mnew i would need tires soon but it came quickly. if i ride gingerly could i make it...

Yea I will change the oil first chance I get. Until then I will just ride her easy.

WIthin the last 2 days my fz6 developed a new problem. Under hard acceleration regardless of gear it feels like my clutch lets go around 12K. When I hit the meat of the powerband the engine just redlines and I loose thrust. Im quick to lift the throttle and I dont seem to have any other...

Yes the lower fairing around the headers was what I was thinking using to mount my system. I had a generic mock up that seemed like it will work well. I had to ditch my frame sliders cause they get in way of having your legs comfortably down to the highway pegs. Im still debating if Im going to...

I am close to making some highway pegs for my FZ6. Essentially it would use the optional lower cowling. I had something mocked up last week but just havent had time to make it. I want something that can be invisible when not using it.

Thanks man those are great. I am a huge military history person and in particular russia. Its great to see first hand pictures.

I actually buy premium now for most my stuff just to avoid the ethanol. Most premium gas doesnt have ethanol. I hate ethanol. Carbs, injectors, and fuel lines can be affected negatively especially if left to sit for a length of time. I have seen two snowmobiles blow cylinders no doubt to the...

Man this is a good post. Ill be checking for your results. So the stock FZ6 ECU and throttle bodies appear to work ok with this motor? I would have never guessed that.

I think im going to test ride one tomorrow. It definetely seems more comfortable to me. I do want something that move out on the highway when I feel like it. Could it cruise at 90 or would it feel to taxed? My impression from sitting on them is that they would be much better than the Fz for long...

Im seriously considering a change of pace. Nothing wrong with the FZ6. Ill never have a bike that has this month value. Im thinking something a little bigger, comfortable and less sportbike. I have been eying the BMS GS and triumph for awhile now. I have decided that it will probably be the...

Dam I was going for not being jerry rigged. In addition to the cases it held me standing on them. I weigh 170. These cases arent going anywhere.

Sure here it is. There are three mounting points. 1. The passenger foot pegs. Bracket that slides on. 2. The back of the foot peg. Heavy duty 1/4 stainless thumb screw. 3. Rear mount with aluminum tube. The second mounting point can't be seen in pictures. It doesnt support weight but...

ETYMOTIC Ear Buds. You wont find a better option.

Really good pictures. Makes me want to get more gear. Did your helmet ever hit the ground?
