    tire dilema

    I started out with the stock Dunlops. After a couple thousand miles they began to feel squirrely, like I wasn't connected to the road. I finally got to the point that I decided to make a change. Without doing much research the guys at the bike shop suggested the Pirelli Angels, so I bought them...

    Givi/motech install

    Just finished installing the Givi V46 trunk and V35 saddlebags. Wow. What a project. I used the SW Motech mounts at the recommendation of the guys at twisted throttle. They look nice and really hug the bike but...The instructions are one picture (that is tough to understand)! I went to their...

    GIVI Thunder blue

    I am purchasing a Givi V46 trunk for my bike. I am considering matching the bike color. Twisted throttle lists the Givi C46B602 "thunder blue". Will this match the color of my 2007 blue fz6 (in the profile photo)? Also has anyone found a better buy than twisted throttle?

    Givi setup

    I am looking to purchase a Givi top case and maybe side cases. I have looked at the Givi site and twisted throttle and am pretty confused. I want the smallest top case that will fit 2 full face Shoei helmets and it appears that the V46 is the ticket. Does it actually fit 2 full face? Can anyone...

    buffeting

    So far I added the Yamaha full cowling (from Yamaha Canada). I added a Puig racing windscreen. The helmet noise is deafening (wind noise). So loud I can't hear the bike at 50mph. I have tried the stock windscreen and no wind screen at all. It's just ...ok...I'm considering the Cee Bailey taller...

    About windscreens

    I am in the market for a taller windscreen. Does anyone know what the height differences are between them.

    full cowling

    I've seen allot of discussion about full cowlings and I wanted to let anyone who's interested where to get them. Not an aftermarket but the actual Yamaha accessory. They are not available in the US although I can't tell you why! They are available from a Yamaha parts company in Canada. They will...

    turn signal removal

    Hey guys- I just bought my full cowling from Yamaha Canada. I began to do the install to find that 1st order of business is the removal of the turn signals. I don't see any screws and don't want to break one figuring it out. The service manual seems pretty silent on this. Can anyone out there...

    lower faring

    I need some info on the lower faring. Not sure if that's the proper name. The bike colored covering that marries up to the gas tank and covers the bike to under the headers. Where do you get them? What are they really called? And what should I expect to pay (USD)? Photos of yours would be...
