    Vortex or Woodcraft Case Covers?

    Anyone know whether the case covers made by woodcraft or vortex for the R6 2003-2005 will fit on the FZ6? I'm fairly confident visually that the R/S will match without issue, but the L/S on the fz seems to stick out alittle more than the r6, and i'm worried it will be too thin to fit. Has...

    Next bike - Euro supersport

    From the looks of my bike, it's bordering the limit of total loss, with just around 5k miles on it, and a slew of mods. In the event that it is a total drop, I'm going to have an opportunity to pickup a Triumph or a Ducati at seriously reduced prices because of my job. Right now I'm hopping...

    TCP Seat Cowl Group Buy

    I've been in contact with RideAddict.com about the possibility of TCP cowl group pricing. The relatively weak exchnage rate keeps prices decently high, but they're willing to offer 5 cowls at 10% off each, 7 at 12% off each, or 10+ for 15% off each. The msrp is 275.00, which doesn't...

    just picked up some clipons

    Well, technically they are still on their way here, but I found a pair of cbr1100xx clips, cheapish, and couldn't pass'em up. I was trying to decide between them and the lsl street/drag bars. I figure at $45 shipped, it was worth giving the clipons a shot first. I'll update with photos and...
