    Full specifications and photos released for Yamaha's new middleweights - the FZ8 and Fazer8

    I must say that I would have prefered a under seat exhaust. But there are elements that I like about it. Including the wheels, and swing arm. I don't like the split seat. That should only be on R models and race replicas. Over all I think the styling works best on the naked version.

    Good Shop In Denver Area?

    Thanks for your replies. I was thinking a independent shop might be the way to go. Wouldn't be as interested in selling parts.

    Good Shop In Denver Area?

    :confused:My 07 got blown over in a wind storm. It bent a foot peg and jarred something loose in the gas tank. When I fill up, it leaks out down to 3/4s. The dealer would only replace the parts at big bucks. I'd like to find a quality shop that can do repairs, not just swap parts. I just moved...

    power commander or not?

    I was told by an experienced moto mechanic that the Poower Comander was not a good idea to use for an exhaust upgrade. That they cause stalling problems.

    New guy here, is the FZ6 right for me?

    You've got a headstart with dirt bike experience. I think if you would do alright with an FZ6 if you can be careful with the throttle as your experience grows. I would strongly suggest the MSF course if you haven't already taken it. If gives very valuble info on street riding. And if you don't...

    Photographic tips needed

    You didn't mention what type of camera you have. So I don't know what control variables you have on the camera. But I can give some basic advice that applies to all cameras, Digital or Film. Two things happen in tandem when you shoot a picture and control the light entering the camera. The...

    Hi. A few questions.

    I think since you have had dirt bike experience that the FZ6 would not be a bad choice for you. But I do recomend the Motorcyle Safety Course. It offers a lot of good knowledge about riding on the street. Plus if it tests for your states endorsment, it's well worth the money. It offers a lot...

    Is this a good deal

    To say he only rode it 10 times and it has 3800 miles on it seems an odd thing. He averaged 380 miles per ride? Or is he not the original owner? If it's legit, it would be a great deal. Ask for any service records. That would help to confirm the milage. Good Luck! hope it works out for you.

    Just got it

    Welcome to the Forum and congrats on your new bike! Like someone said earlier take the Motorcycle safety course if you haven't already. I found that padded palm gloves and a well fitting helmet are money well spent.
