So a year and a little bit ago I replaced the FZ6 with a 2005 K1200S - it's a great bike overall but biased toward longer, higher speed trips. As such it's a little bit of overkill for commuting and local day trips - heavy, somewhat jerky around town as it's between gears and hot in the summer...

SOLD--------------------- Lost a bit of weight and decided to replace my mesh jacket so this is now extra. It's a size XL Tour Master Intake that's been used for 1.5 seasons. In general it's in very good condition but does show some signs of wear on zippers, cuff edges and cuff velco - the...

Tank Bag is SOLD (post reordered to move tank bag to bottom) Sale Pending on the Saddlebags -------------------------- Since I got a new bike in the fall, I'm finally getting around to cleaning up some of the stuff around that I won't need anymore. Case in point, this luggage: Next up a...

SOLD - Shad Topcase Rack - Works with Givi Monolock Case ----SOLD---- Up for sale is Shad topcase rack - it's been drilled to work with the universal Givi monolock mounting plates which is the setup I had. I really liked the Shad because it was less bulky that the givi rack and doesn't...

Trip Report - Boston to Cape Breton, NS, Canada Last week I took a trip from Boston area through the Cabot Trail. One of my co-riders (Tony) took the time to write a ride report and I added some of my own thoughts so I'm posting up as-is with his words being prime with a link to photos for...

Background - I'm about a week into recovering from a hard fall playing ice hockey which cracked one of my ribs - it's a wait for it to feel better kind of injury - typically about 6 weeks to full recovery. Deep breaths, coughing, etc are still pretty painful and it's really bad in the AM, gets...

So different commute today b/c I'm hosting a conference downtown Boston vs. living and working north of the city normally. Ride in this morning was fun - no issues but the ride home was a little tense for me as a front is blowing in rapidly. This meant 40+ mph gusty crosswinds when I rode across...

So I'm trying to sell a seat that is an OEM seat with a new attractive cover from Top Saddlery that was installed by them at their factory. The cover includes silver stitching and an FZ6 logo. I'm trying to figure out what this thing is approximately worth and would appreciate some non-binding...

I purchased a seat from this member advertised as a "NEW never used Top Saddlery seat". The upfront portion of the transaction was great - fast emails, prompt shipping, etc. Issue arose when the item arrived and I discovered that it was not an entire TopSaddlery seat, but a TopSaddlery...

No Longer FS: TopSaddlery Newly Covered Seat Up for sale is a seat that I purchased recently from another member. It was advertised as a new Top Saddlery seat but as near as I can figure it is actually an OEM seat that has been recovered by Top Saddlery. The TopSaddlery cover includes silver...

Passed another silver/black FZ6 this afternoon on 127 near the Beverly/Manchester line - anyone from the board? I was shocked to see another FZ6 nevermind a silver and black.

A short, funny and true story I thought was worth sharing. My wife and son (he's 16 months old) were out for a walk yesterday. A Harley went by and he pointed at it and proudly said "lawnmower". :rof: Full disclosure - motorcycle isn't yet one of his ~15 words so I guess it's not...

Seat is Sold ------ Selling my comfort seat to fund some items for my winter project (see what a one-income family reduces you to :eek:) Anyway, it's one-season old (~4k miles), and is in very good condition - the only blemishes I noticed were a couple of scuffs on the underside of the points...

I'm sure it's not super exciting to most but I picked up an 87 XT350 for a few hundred bucks today to be a winter project for tinkering with. It's dirty, smokes (suspect piston ring) and needs a few minor items but runs good and strong nonetheless. I figure I'll clean it up and move it to the...

Been a month or so since I got the setup mounted but haven't had time to get a write-up. The write-up itself is largely the same as crazybiker posted up here: http://www.600riders.com/forum/how-tos/7884-shad-50-top-case-rack-installation.html so I won't recap all that but will add a couple...

Just a heads up for those in the area that it's Classic European bike day at Larz Anderson in Brookline this Sun 9/21. I'll likely end up therewith some of my riding buddies - especially since it seems like one of them is going to be leading demos rides out of the "Duc Truck". Looks like a nice...
