First off would like to say Thank You to my 11K set of 021's. 11K miles front had enough-rear could have gone another 2K easy (saving for if the hard times continue). They (rear) only "puckered" me once think it was something on road. Never ran them all the way to the edge. Getting older by...

Need some help/advice choosing a BT-O_ _ for the front. I currently have 021 front and rear. At 9K I only have a few more hundred before need for a new front - The rear is still going strong I'm guessing another 3-4K. The 21's have not caused me much "pucker"; I'm older and wiser (and...

All who ride around this area - BEWARE! Did last Saturday 4-25 about mid morning. The good thing had a friend along who doesn't ride well so was taking it speed limit if not a little under (boring) but shortly up 128 from 505 had 3 motor-men go by opposite direction..... Hmmmmmm I thought...

Thought I saw a Blue FZ6 at LMMS, Sunnyvale in parking lot by 157. Maybe same I sometimes see 880 N at end of day? I'm G.P. Supt. currently at 150. Ed Lee

How snappy is your throttle return? Mine is slow almost to the point of being it's own throttle lock. I've taken it apart, started lubricating everything and still is very slow. Have not taken the tank off to check yet. Thanks, Ed

I've been wanting a video camera both for riding and the other adventure sports I do. Waterproof is a prime requirement, no additional housing. I see the Sanyo as Top of the line at $400 then there are those btw $150 - $275. What do you suggest? Ed

I have installed foam grips and it helps during my commute to dampen the bar buzz. Wearing my thicker winter gloves adds more dampening. It's summer and am wondering if there is something I can add that will help dampen the buzz. At this time don't want to change sprockets. Thanks, Ed

I'm new to the FZ6 and loving every mile. Using for commuting mostly but also those rides which generally go past dark. Twisty roads night time and some fog if out on the coast makes me want more light out front. I've been told Don't because the electrical system can not handle any more load...
