    What is the best Oil.

    A quick note on the oil change for U.S. people. The amount of oil you will need can vary a little dependng on the filter you are using. The engine on my 06 recommends 2.5 liters. If you look on the case right under where it says 599cc it says 2500 cm^3. A quick conversion is 1000 cm^3 = 1...

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    Ya mine does the same. You dont really need two canisters. The second one is there just to look good. Almost all of my exhaust comes out of the Right one if you are looking at the bike from the rear. I noticed that at first and worried about it. It has to be normal the way the pipes are set...

    Suomy Helmets?

    Anyone have one of these. The local shops carry it and I took one out for a test ride and it was a million times better than my Joe rocket helmet. Ive only really ridden with my Joe Rocket and Im not sure if the Suomy is that good or the Rocket is just that bad. Any feedback welcome.

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    I paid $700 us for mine shipped. They where from the dealer. There are a couple of reason why it is so expensive for our bike and why I think its worht the price. 1. Its really two cans. The stock exhaust is not 2 cans. It looks like it but when you take it off its just one big block...

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    I did the two brothers and the K&N filter and It riding fine. This weekend when I get some time I am gonna run new spark plugs in it to see how its burning. I don't think I will need one but we will see. A common alternative to a PC is getting it remapped by a dealer. I don't see it talked...

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    I really like FE kit. I know its kind of small but it pretty darn bright. But I did go from the stock fender to the new one and man its a huge difference. Plus with all the noise coming out of the back people are more likely to mistake me for huge truck than not to notice me. Since I am a...

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    Slip on, If you want to be just a little bit louder then I would not recommend two brothers. Two Brothers is considerably louder. But I tell you I was kind of in the same boat you were about where I wanted the sound to be. But now that I have the two brothers I really really do like it...

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    before I bought it I watched a lot of sound clips and I gotta say they do the sound no justice. It sounds a lot different. I really love the deep sounds it gives off.

    Two Brothers Exhaust review

    So today I added and two brothers alum exhaust and a K&N air filter. For those who don't know the exhaust kit by two brothers also comes with a fender eliminator kit. The install took me about 4 hours for both working by myself. It was the first time removing any panels or anything so that took...

    Frame sliders ordered

    Hi guys, I got a quick question about this. I just got my FZ6 about 2 months ago and I love it. Its my first bike and was looking at getting a set of these to help protect it if I ever go down. But when I was looking at them I noticed that most of them appear to be using and Engine Mount...
