    Wanted: 07+ Forks

    Looking to buy 2007 and newer forks (black). Must be straight. I would purchase the left side separately if you happen to have just one. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Can't say I know of many good routes, but when you get here I can suggest some good bike-only parking spots in the city!

    8 Miles A Day

    I wouldn't worry about the battery unless you have any kind of parasitic draw on it (like an alarm). Honestly, the bike will be completely fine on a commute like that, you'll just want to change your oil based on time, not mileage. Personally, I always end up taking the "long way" after a day...

    Pirelli's tire pressure guide vs. stock

    I believe tire pressure should be changed to suit riding environment. Generally speaking, dropping pressures for aggressive riding and raising them for hwy/commuting. My guess is Pirelli suggests their pressures for the hwy/commuting crowd as that is what the majority will do on an FZ6...

    Looking at FZ6 - Seeking Comfort Advice

    you can use 10w-30 or 10w-40. I personally use Amsoil 10w-40 year round. Switching to synthetic is as simple as draining (replacing filter) and refilling. Might take an additonal oil change or two to get all the dino oil out of there. on a side note, I should really go on the forum more...

    Bell RS-1 Helmet in Size Medium

    Might want to list build date (Bell's have a sticker on the outside back of the helmet as well as inside). I only use Bells. They are AWESOME and come with a 5 year warranty! GLWS

    Heated Grips

    I use the same grips. Install is easy and they work great. They have a 2 year warranty as well. I had to get the updated heat controller (the one you linked has it) and it was at my door the next day at no cost. the FZ6 is easily bump-started. Just put it in 2nd gear with the key on, get a...

    Wheelies at the track? Banned!

    My very first trackday they opened the front straight at lunch for wheelies. I did my first 'official' wheelie there on a brand new bike and wet my pants. Did it again for another photo op on a wheelie hill Haven't gotten any good wheelie pics in the past 6 years or so but as long as...

    What do I test ride??

    I rode the FJR ES with the electronic suspension. While looking quite large parked next to the other bikes at the event (with the saddlebags on), I didn't feel any additional heft while underway. I was very impressed with the power and handling and while the ride was short, i was able to quickly...

    What do I test ride??

    Well I did the FZ-09 and the FJR. Not sure there's much I can say that hasn't been said about either bike, but I can definitely see myself on a FJR... FZ-09 FJR: FZ-07: ICE CREAM!

    What do I test ride??

    Just found out the Yamaha truck is next to my work. I signed up for the Fz-09 and can't decide if my other ride should be the fz-07, FJR, or something else. Super tenere is booked too late so that is not an option for me although I wish it was. Glad I came to work today!
