I rode my 05 FZ6 from coast to coast and back in 05 in the month of September...was about 9,000+ miles. Bike worked flawlessly and was very comfortable day in and day out...would def do it again.
No I did not document. Was just for fun.
All - I have an 05 undergoing the naked transformation. Some other things I want to do during the process that I could use help on.
FZ1 bars - was told the 07 would work fine on my 05, rotate a little and everyhting should work, no tank slap.
FZ8 mirrors - what years for these(all the...
Sorry to hear that - sux. I have not been in that situation but was riding with a buddy that was - we actually bought both our bikes at the same time and his had 300 miles on it when he totaled it. Insurance gave him the full price - I know your situation is different, just be prepared with...
So for the folks with the 05 bikes it is possible to get the FZ1 bars to work - once again which year to order?
Also - does the long top clamp for the bars work from the new bikes with the yamaha logo vs the smaller c clamp on the older bikes?
I am going naked and doing all these mods at...
Exactly -
I like the naked look - just want the one meant for the bike...the headlights in my opinion looks world apart different...that makes the bike.
Nothing wrong with the othe kit - but there is just something a little off about it - headlight wise.
I think if the kit was offered...
Great post - just curious...is that the smoked version of the light?
Also - why would you install this and keep the rear indicators? I have thought about doing this and ditching the rear indicators but would have to modify the rear fender eliminator to get rid of the holes for the stalk...
Decisions decisions...
Race tech's are a great mod...I have an Ohlin's rear, gave them my specs, weight with gear on etc and they setup the forks for me. Probably the single best mod I have made to the bike...suspension.
Nice got any bigger pix? So is that a nub kit light...
So your bike is an 04 with mostly 07 parts? Front end, tank, swingarm...did you do the whole instrument conversion also?
HA - yeah not colorblind...just apparently really slow... So I got an estimate for painting the tank which was around $250 - prolly more like $275 out the door for a good quality job - tank is about 450 with shipping...figure I can get 2 bills for my pristine blue tank...so I call it close to a...
LOL Skooter65...you are probably laughing your ass off at me....can't track a package, can't figure out colors for a bike ;-)
Thanks -
One more question - that tanks says when I go to order that it is CA edition...I assume California...is that for emissions, or more importantly does the...
Not saying you are wrong but I think the color (black metallic) could be referencing the plastics. The tanks on the 2008 or 2009 that I have googled look dark blue...
I could not find a pic of a black tank on a bike that was offered from Yamaha OEM...again I could be wrong...
I think I might go from blue to black and wanted to know if there was an OEM blank tank out there from one of the FZ6 years...?
If not would an FZ1 tank work or and FZ6R - if they came in black?
Or am I SOL?
