    how to get clip out?

    Anyone know how to get these clips out of the headlight socket? Do I need a special tool or can I pull it out using needlenose pliers? I tried pulling one out by hand, but it wouldn't budge. Any suggestions appreciated.

    going naked

    Well I took my last ride today on my "faired" FZ6. After reading and looking at the pics of tom5796 and victorb's conversions, I just had to convert to naked. I bought the FZ1N kit from PartShark last week and am diving in tomorrow. I'm a little nervous about doing the electrical, but should...

    Clutch Cable Housing problem

    Yesterday I lubed my clutch cable. Went for a 20 mile ride. Great! Today on the way home from work I had a problem with my clutch engaging I guess. As I'm pulling away from a stop sign, the bike feels like it is severely under powered. I had the clutch handle fully out and was giving it...

    FZ1 bar question

    Just got my FZ1 handlebars from Ron Ayers. On the throttle side right at the bend, there is an 1/8th inch post on the bottom side of the bar. Anyone know what this is for. I looked at some of the other threads about FZ1 bars and didn't see any mention of this. I'm wondering if they sent me...

    Leo exhaust discoloration

    Looking for some insight as to why my Leo Vince exhaust maybe discoloring. I installed it with about 1,000 miles on the bike, currently have 2,000 miles on her. I haven't done any other mods like airbox/filter or Power Commander. I was wondering if she's running too rich, but that seems...

    Sunday morning w/the police

    This morning I was practicing emergency braking in the parking lot of an industrial park that is closed on weekends. Two police cars come flying in and stop me. One officer gets out and asks if I live near there and have ID. I tell him yes to both and give him my license. He asks if I have...

    First Ride

    I should start by saying I LOVE THIS BIKE! Picked up my '08 Raven FZ6 today. Put 40 miles on it and can't wait to get out on it tomorrow. I'm going to have to make more time in my schedule for riding. After reading some of the posts here, I was worried about the clutch being "snatchy" and...

    09 Good Price?

    Just wanted to get some thoughts on a quote I got from a dealer today. $6840 for the bike, $159 document fee, $ 386 freight/set-up/prep fee. The doc and freight/set-up/prep fees seem a little high. How much wiggle room is there with the bike price? Would I be asking too much to have them...
