Thanks to the guys over at safari cycle, the gauge came in the mail today. Its got 44K miles on it already, but for 110$ shipped I really cant complain!

That a cool shot frank! doesn't even look like a road, is it? Yeah I know its wasn't smart. I thought you had to give up "smart" when you gave up two wheels and a cage? If you came to a road like that, and decided against doing it, wouldn't it bug the hell out of you wondering if you could?

I fried my 04's probably a combination of abuse and maybe a little water. Cant really blame it for failing, its been through at least 2 severe crashes that I know about. Anyway, I'm looking for either the stock gauge for the 04, or the newer style gauge. The old gauge being punished :

well he said hed takem em back wither way, so it will work out. thanks for the help guys

The R6 rotors I bought "YAMAHA R6 S model front brake rotors 03 04 05 2006 2007" dont fit, they are wider, (not thicker) than the stock FZ6 rotors by at least 1" Thanks for the tip on the compatibility sheet, ill check it out.

I was gettin a funny clicking the was related to speed coming from the font end, seemed to be coming from a brake caliper. I have done the R6 fork swap, so I figured 04 R6 brakes would fit too (alot easier to find, cheaper). not so much :mad: , they are almost an inch wider in circumference...

coming along slowly, BTW you CAN take the fuel pump out without complete disassembly inside the tank.

agreed, best movie Ive seen in quite awhile. so many excellent complex characters.

for real nasty chains Ive used brake cleaner to good effect without damaging the o-rings, Ive also has better luck with "chain wax" staying put better than "chain lube" and that grunge brush designed specifically for chains was well worth it.

exactly what I was trying to say. intake and exhaust restriction or the lack thereof can do strange things to torque

milder cams and smaller airbox, I think the "de-tuning" was a result of trying to give it more midrange torque could be other differences besides those

thats a real good one with the reflection

Nice Thats a real slick look with the lower fairing

In all sincerity, did you think you got 21K worth of motorcycle? I guess I just don't get how they can charge that much, are they that comfy, or that high quality to justify that much $$? or is it just the name and image that you're buying? Im not trying to be a smartass, I just never...

ouch, you get to keep the piston as a souvenir?

Gotta love centerstands. Forks and brakes are on the way, Im gonna try to find a set of tires tomorrow.

thanks, do you know what headlight set up youre going to use?

Got the bike in the garage finally, someone here asked to keep them posted on the project, so here is the begining. and yes, that is the intrument cluster on the seat, the nascar-only-turn-left front end is coming off, and when I fired it up and revved it, is sounded like a bunch of pissed of...

nice! my budget will probably dictate acerbis or a 4" dual kit.
