    Don't ride like you drive

    Good idea for a thread. I've been reading/finding new ways to ride safer the past couple years. I could post a few tips, but this is one one that can translate to two or more wheels. If you're first at a red stop light and it turns green, quick glance both ways as you roll out to see if someone...

    WTB '07 Radiator

    Needing to replace my radiator for my '07, I had bought one from an '04 not knowing that the it's slightly different (fan mounting points are the biggest difference). So either I need a radiator for an '07+, or a fan from an older one if the radiator itself will fit... I'm on a budget, but I...

    FREE Original Owners Manual from a 2008 FZ6

    I have an '07 and am interested in the manual. Should be the same for '07-'08, right? How much to ship it?

    That's about what mine look like right now. I have some 3M Perfect-It rubbing compound sitting here that I can try on it.

    Polishing Exhaust Headers

    I was just going to ask if anyone used scotch-brite pads instead of steel wool. I used it on a SS dirt bike head pipe but never spent any time polishing it... All these polished pipes look surprisingly good on this bike. I may have to try it when I take the radiator off.

    How To "Store" My FZ6 During Winter?

    I just top my bikes off with 91 non-oxy (not sure if you have that there) and make sure the battery is fully charged. They always start up in the spring without touching them for about 6 months. This includes carb'd and FI street bikes. I'm in MN as well, and last winter was not fun.

    *****FZ6 Riders: How Tall Are You?*****

    5'6" with about 28" inseam. My weestrom is a little taller with a wider seat, so I'm glad I have off road experience since I can only get one set of toes on the ground.

    New member welcome thread..

    First post to introduce myself, although I'm more of a lurker than poster. I grew up riding dirt bikes, but every year I seem to ride more and more on the street. Been through a number of bikes, but my current street bikes are DL650, YZ450F, and now a project FZ6 that I'm converting to naked...
