    Looking at used FZ6 bikes

    Can anyone answer this? I might have the chance to snatch up an 06 for only $2k. Though I've been waiting and saving for a '07+. It'll be my first bike so I'm not sure if I should wait it out or bite the bullet. The extra $1.5k could go into any maintenance I'd want to have done. Also the...

    GoPro'd my BRC

    Yup. You hit the nail on the head. For the most part I used 2nd gear. I only used 1st for the exercises that required us to shift from first to 2nd at the cones. Like you said 1st is a very low. I know one time used 2nd for the box turn and it worked out pretty well. The TW was tight, but fun...

    GoPro'd my BRC

    LMAO. Yea that TW has seen better days for sure. Well after first making sure I was ok lol... he asked if I knew what I did wrong. At first I thought it was definitely from me releasing the clutch and blipping the throttle. The friction zone and where the clutch fully engages was weird to...

    GoPro'd my BRC

    Thanks!!! Yea I plan on asking questions, once I'm actually riding lol. And I'm beyond happy it was on the school's bikes lol. The seat on the TW just came flying off haha. I do need to work on clutch control, using it instead of brakes helped with the box uturn a lot. Sent from my Nexus 7...

    GoPro during BRC?

    Thanks for the replies guys. I have the classroom portion tonight so I'll ask then to make sure. And if I record I'll def post it up. Any preferences on an actioncam. I was leaning towards the Hero 3+ black or a Ghost Drift-S. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk

    GoPro during BRC?

    I was thinking of ordering a GoPro/Drift to record my GF and I during BRC this weekend. Any idea if this is allowed? I'm in CT. I'll also have my own helmet if which I'm sure is a plus. Thanks, mike Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    2007 Yamaha Fz6 (Boston, MA/RI)

    I spoke to the seller a week or two ago, bike is sold. I'm also looking for a '07+ as my first bike, in the CT/MA area. Looking for an '07+ because of the mapping and mainly the cluster. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    Who here has to pay for MSF classes, and how much?

    My girlfriend and I paid $200 a piece for the BRC. We take the course this next weekend!! Im so excited lol. BTW I'm in CT. We could have just went and got our permits and been done with it. But the knowledge is more than worth the $200 IMHO. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
