It looks like the headlight (and maybe even the bike) that another member had on his bike (not sure if the member still has the bike). Take a look through this thread: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-streetfighter/4416-streetfighter-v3-0-a.html
Sorry I can't comment on the laws related to riding in your parts of the world, however, I did go through a similar experience in the US switching from a state which required no inspection to a state which has more stringent inspection laws.
If possible, I might recommend simply calling or...
Hey guys - so I didn't make it up to bike week this past weekend, but did have the opportunity to meet a new FZ6 rider.
I spotted Keith getting on 395 in Waterford and was able to catch up to him and talk to him for a bit in a parking lot in Uncasville. Unfortunately, we both had other plans...
Currently I am planning on coming up Saturday and was kicking around the idea of the second half of Friday.
If so, I would probably be staying in Salem Friday night and ride back up Saturday. I guess it comes down to if there are people to ride with.
I believe my friends (non-forum...
Sorry guys, I noticed the thread but did not keep up with the 12 pages and really don't have the patience to sit and flip through every post.
Anyone know of anyone from CT going (or south of CT or southern mass)? I saw a couple people from New York and New Jersey were heading up. I can't...
Anyone on here own the blue FZ6 in Norwich by the DMV? I drove by it the other day, and happened to notice it sitting in the parking lot. It's actually pretty close to my house.
I'm impressed... I did about 500 miles this past weekend and I'm exhausted. To do 3,000 in a week is amazing, not too mention the specific details of the trip (Mt. Washington especially, as I'm sure that took a ton of focus, concentration and energy to ride up and down).
Heading home from work on Wednesday, was on my black '09 FZ6. I saw a guy riding up ahead of me on the Groton - New London bridge (no helmet). He got off as I kept riding by, when I got even with him I took a quick look over and realized it was a blue FZ1.
Sorry no other details. It was...
You can tell if you are running lean by the condition of the spark plugs . If you are seriously worried about the problem I'd pull each spark plug, document their current condition (ie take a photograph of each) and then ride the bike till the next oil change or for a significant number of...
I am in the area, as are a few others. I haven't had a chance to go riding with anyone from the site, but hope to do so sometime this summer.
If anyone is interested in going to bike week (at Laconia) let me know, as I believe I will be leaving Montville and heading up the second weekend.
I wouldn't bother making a trip up there for a couple months. The low down which I heard about Excalibur (from the instructors, the course was through Excalibur, so technically the instructors are employed by them) is that Excalibur went through a number of changes recently. One of the owners...
Well, I was able to find time and an available slot at the MSF Basic Rider Course up at Excalibur Motorsports this past weekend in Plainfield, CT. So you will probably be seeing more of this FZ6 rider and his FZ6 on the road in the near future.
After taking the course I feel a lot better. I...
Yeah, I work in the Stonington/Mystic area and am planning on turning this into both a daily commuter vehicle and also a weekend pleasure vehicle. I travel a lot for work, but whenever, I'm home I plan on putting as many miles on her as possible.
Anyone have any good suggestions on getting...
Hello all,
Just recently purchased an '09 FZ6. I'm new to both the FZ6 community and also the motorcycle community. Haven't picked up the bike yet (I am in the travel season for work right now). Just wanted to say hello and ask for any advice on CT licensing and also the motorcycle safety...
Cape Cod may be a bit out of the way. If you have time I'd definately recommend making your way down into Boston. I've had the oppurtunity of traveling a bit and it definately seems each city is different. If you can make it down into Boston, get your hands on some Red Sox tickets, bleacher...
