I've had my FZ6 for over 5 years now. For whatever reason, I'd never actually explored the full range of motion of the throttle. Sure, I've ridden fast, accelerated quickly, etc. Perhaps, it was the adequate amount of torque I felt in the lower range, the sweet sound of the Two Brothers cans, or...
So after I installed the Two Brothers fender eliminator, I was disappointed with the amount of light that the LED license plate lights put out, though I liked the FE too much to switch back to the old light. Soooo, I started thinking and created a prototype of an acrylic light spreader. I...
Saw this for the first time today, I hope it's not a repost. Is this an FZ6? It's hilarious, but I think it's from a Greek tv show. :D

Hey guys, I'm looking for a couple P1X powertips for Two Brothers. Brand new, they're $70 for a pair; I'm hoping someone out there might have tried them and decided they were too quiet...:D
I'm not sure how exactly to explain it, but in the past few weeks, I've noticed that my FZ6 has felt more "loose". Turns don't feel stable and the steering is very very very sensitive. I've checked the tire pressures (33/36 exactly), checked my rear wheel alignment, checked for a loose steering...
The weather cleared for a few hours today, just enough time to dust off my gear and go for a ride in the countryside. :rockon:
Not the most exciting picture, but typical of the landscape out where I live: lots of farmland, rolling hills, and two lane highways. I'm still exploring all of...
I've been riding quite a bit lately and noticed that I am starting to drive like I ride. For example, tonight I was approaching a big curve and looked down at my tach. I was driving at 4000 rpm. My car redlines at 6000 and I normally drive around 2500. I just thought that it was funny, since...
I was wrapping up a nice evening ride and pulling into the gas station for some go juice. I shut the bike off and put down my kickstand, or so I thought. As I started to stand up, I noticed the bike wasn't leaning over as much as it usually does. Immediately after, the bike went down. I laid it...
I was out for a ride today and a red FZ6 passed by me over on Harrison Bridge Road....looked like an 07, but I didn't get a good look since I caught you out of the corner of my eye. Was that anyone from the forum? :confused:
This question is for guys riding in the upstate SC area: Mountain roads excluded, what are the best roads for riding here? So far, I've been riding mostly on busy roads in the Simpsonville and Greenville areas, but haven't found that "great road" that I want to keep riding on. Where do ya'll...
Hey guys, I'm experiencing some brake dragging on my rear wheel. When I get back from a ride, the rear rotor is hot to the touch. There is also some discoloration, similar to the problem described in...
I just wanted to share the good news with ya'll that I finally put a FZ6 in my garage! I bought a Faster Blue 2007 with 2900 miles on it and rode it home today from Atlanta, GA. :rockon: I had one chance to ride it around the block before I forked over the money, and for never having ridden one...
I don't know if this site has this feature or not, but on the car forum I frequent, there is a map of the world with dots for all of the members built into the vb website. It would be really cool to see the world distribution of our membership. Do we have something like that here?
I am wanting to buy some good boots for riding around town and everyday use (I would be riding around town while working, for example). If they were normal boots, they would definitely would be over the ankle, steel toe, etc. Do ya'll have any specific suggestions? What should I look for in a...
Update: I found a beautiful 2007 near Atlanta and will be picking it up in three weeks. Thanks for your suggestions!
Well, the time has come to start looking for an FZ6. :rockon: The wife has given her full blessing (she'll be riding it, too). The purchase time frame is approximately one month...
Just curious if your first serious ride on an FZ6 was on the way home from the purchase. I'm going to buying one in the next couple months and am nervous...about riding it home, especially if I have to travel a ways to find the perfect bike or perfect deal. I have a year's worth of riding...
My wife and I were driving down Caesars Head about 1:00 today, and I looked in my rear view mirror to see a red FZ6....I said "hey, it's an FZ6" and watched him go by. She said "He passed you, ya know" I said "I know, it's cool" :) Was anyone on the boards riding there today? Looked like you...
