Went on a 45 minute ride. Not sure when it happened could have even been before I left but got to where I was going and FE was hanging. Most of the ride was highways and at one point a bus flashed me but had no idea why. Well now I have a mangled plate, messed up rear tire, none of my turn...

Half way home my clutch became useless. I was able to get home with a combo of shutting it down at stops. I found the culprit to be that the guide for the clutch cable isnt bolted in place. So when i pull the clutch in the cable is rising up rather than pulling in. Looks like im missing a bolt...

I have this belly pan thats been sitting forever because I don't have the bracket. I finally want to paint my bike and hopefully the belly pan too and start using it. Anyone possibly have one they want to sell?

My rear turn signals on my FZ6 stopped working. I am not sure what happened. The front turn signals work and the rear running/brake lights work. The rear turn signals were replaced which some I purchased off ebay a while back. They are not LED but when I installed them I did noticed the turn...

I had posted in another thread that I went down. Now I need to get her all healed up. When I went down it was on the right side and the frame slider took most of the abuse. Three things though need attention: 1) I leaked out some coolant and now she is running hot. Am I ok to just replace...

Not the first time and I am sure not the last but me and the bike met the pavement this morning. While I don't know precisely what happened I know exactly what happened... I was on my way to work, tired and late, as I was going under the highway I was following another bike (older bike with...

So I have a garmin nuvo but usually only use it on longer rides not around town. Sometimes I need to go somewhere and having my gps on my phone would be handy. I have seen some nice cases that go on the handle bars or I also have a ball mount on mine. The phone I have is a Samsung Galaxy S2...

So I went to take my bike in to work so I could do the brake caliper rebuild with new seals when I noticed that the front left fork was leaking. It would have been nice to find this two weeks ago before everyone was taking their bikes in for tune ups but I did happen to find a good very local...

So after having some troubles getting going this season and after the bike sitting for a couple of months in the snow its time to get her back to riding order. I have been plagued by first a flat rear tire and now a flat front (think someone might be f'n with me) I have a more pressing concern...

So I moved my bike after it being snowed in the past month. I just rolled it across the street for alternate side parking and at first I had to check if it was in gear than thought maybe a tire was flat. I guess from sitting so long and salt, snow dirt it is kinda tough to move. My friend...

I am really in need of some brackets for my belly pan I bought off here years ago. I just missed out on scoring some here because I didn't get a notification he pm'd me. Now I am bummed and my headers are still showing. Anyone have some or can make me some?

I don't know if its my old age or just complete ignorance but I just noticed my coolant reservoir on my bike. Since I obviously never touched it before and in trying to shine a flashlight in there I am pretty sure it is empty. How do I go about filling it and what to use? Pretend I am stupid...

I just got a notice in the mail from Rider Insurance (my insurance carrier) that my 2005 FZ6 has been "reclassified" as a Sport/High Performance bike, and "this change will affect your policy premium as well as your eligibility for certain discounts." WTF !?! Edit: I was just reading up on...

I just got to work and noticed that one of the clear lenses on one of my clear alternatives turn signals fell off. I was really hoping I could just buy another signal assembly or at the very least a pair as I have them both front and back. It seems clear alternatives is no longer in business...

My chain is pretty rusty. My friends having a fix-it bbq this weekend. Would like to swap it out. What chain should I get and what tools will I need? Also unrelated want one of those blinking brake lights if anyone has a suggestion. Thanks!

I was thinking of relocating my horn from under the front cowling and using the bracket there to mount a camera. Any thoughts on whether this would be a good mounting spot and if so where to relocate the horn (or even replace with different model)?

Last night I got home really late and there happened to be a parking spot. Normally I won't take a regular spot but I had a contractor (friend) coming in the morning to look at my house so I decided to save it by parking like a car. Well this morning I come down to find my bike parked like we...

I picked up my bike from my buddies garage where it was all winter. Before putting it in I had some issues with it not starting when cold. I asked him to charge it before I got it but the alarm kept going off meaning it had gone completely dead. I had him pull the alarm and charge it up and...
