Ive found the handlebars on my 09 fz6 are just too short, and when i got it, the right was bent. more than an hour of riding puts my right shoulder through hell. i will be commuting heavily soon, so i grabbed some bars off of my 1980 xj650 that has electrical problems. they are about 3 inches...

so i did a full oil change, and discovered my dumb ass has used a fram filter, and a small one at that. i imagine it got clogged and just started leaking. i have a much larger mobil 1 filter on it now, and fresh synthetic oil, and no leaks. also, i had left my bike at my dads and he had moved it...
