Recently moved back to South Florida from Central Illinois. Loving the riding weather. Took 2007 FZ6 to A1A and rode from Pompano up to Delray beach Saturday morning. Once on A1A pleasant 30 to 35 MPH between the intercostal and the beach.

Bought a new battery toward the middle of last season. Live in Central Illinois and so parked the bike October through now starting it every now and then. I rode last Saturday for a couple of hours. I turned the bike off to open the garage door when I got back from my ride and it wouldn't...

Installing a power outlet with relay and need to tap into switched power. Suggestions of where to tap in? Looking under the tank there are all kinds of wires but they all look the same to this guy. Thanks for any suggestions.

I have an 07 FZ6. I was behind someone at a stop light and noticed in my reflection that my head lights were flickering as I revved my engine. The previous owner installed a BD43 Dual Low Beam Headlight mod. The (low filament?) on the high beam side was the one flickering. I could tap on it...

Appreciate any help here. Last year I installed an LED tail light with integrated turn signals. I love it. I also changed out the front stem mounted signals for flush mounted LEDs. The flush mounted fronts were not bright enough so I found some bulb style signals which mount on my...

Are the expensive helmets like Shoei and Arai worth it? I'm guessing that safety is fairly similar between DOT or Snell approved helmets. Is it the looks or are they significantly more comfortable? Wondering what justifies the huge difference in price compared to a Bell or even a Built. I paid...

So work finally changed from blackberry to iPhone. Since we have unlimited data I can listen to pandora when I ride which will be great once the weather improves. I plan on using a Ram Mount to attach but wondering what is the best way to listen. Plug in with a long earbud cord or some kind of...

I bought my bike on Craigslist and still search it regularly looking for deals on gear ( looking for used quality summer gloves right now). Anyway I noticed a blue 2005 FZ6S for sale and so thought I'd post in case anyone is in that market. I don't know anything about the bike other than what...

Just recently caught the TT Isle of Mann motorcycle race on cable. Definitely the most intense and interesting motorcycle race I've ever seen or heard of. Jealous of you guys in the UK who can witness in person. That would be soooo cool..

I want to wire an outlet on my bike and don't want the power on when the bike is off. I know I can wire in a relay but came across a utube video (pasted below) which seems to accomplish the same goal without the relay. The guy just wires the power against an existing fuse. Is this ok to do...

Ok I know this sounds crazy but.. sometimes, when I'm riding, I get a whiff of something that smells just like gunpowder. I think it is when I shift gears. I don't sense it every time I shift gears and its not every ride but once in a great while it smells just exactly like when you shoot a...

Awesome Saturday. Installed integrated clear tail light and applied some decals to my Powerbronze fairing. What do you think?
