    Throttle Meister Cruise Control

    I have the similar Kaoko device sold by Twisted Throttle. I use it very little, you need a long stretch of flat road for it to be effective. The Cramp Buster is much more useful. Kaoko Throttle Lock Cruise Control (Yamaha FZ1, FZ6, TDM850, TDM900, XJR1200, XJR1300, & MT01, black or silver) -...

    US biker sues Harley in ABS light case

    I agree. The original post I responded to stated that cruisers as a whole had horrible brakes. I saw where a Harley CVO model had one of the shortest stopping distances that MCN had ever recorded. Some sportbikes have poor brakes too. I love all bikes and didn't agree with the notion that...

    US biker sues Harley in ABS light case

    Common knowlege? Look at the stopping data in any cycle mag. The old-teck cruisers have some of the shortest stopping distances. The weight of the cruiser can be an asset in a panic stop, the back brakes can be used to more effect on the big bikes. My Honda VTX1800 will beat my FZ6 in a panic stop.

    Laminar Lip?

    I have one on my cruiser windshield and it works well. Im not sure how effective it would work with the much smaller FZ6 screen.

    Spencer Seat Modification

    +1 on the Spencers Mods - Best money I have spent on my FZ6. Way better than a stock seat or the Yamaha Gel seat.

    Son hit my Fizzer with my car!!!

    I plan on giving the Fizzer to my son in a couple of years. My son in-law has a 500 ninja but jumps at any chance he gets to ride the FZ. I look foreword to years of riding with both of them!!!! They both feel real bad about the accident - I see a few bike washes and some lawn care in their future!

    Son hit my Fizzer with my car!!!

    My son hit my Fizzer with my car last night. My son in-law had the bike out getting ready to ride it, son was leaving at the same time and they managed to tangle. :spank: Bike didn't go down and damage was limited to a broken passenger foot peg bracket and scuff on the car bumper. I watched it...

    My new (same) seat

    I found out about Frank's work on this forum 2 years ago. His work is top notch, my reworked seat is the best mod money I have ever spent. I have talked several friends into sending seats to Frank and no one had been disapointed.:thumbup:

    New - Sena Bluetooth Stereo Headsets and Intercom

    Yes - you can talk on your phone. The sound in the helmet is awesome. My wife said you can't even tell the person is on a motorcycle on the other end. The hook up to my ipod also works well.

    Spencers Seat Mods

    Frank (Spencer) did my seat. Night / Day difference. I went with the supracore (sp?) material on the rider area and pillion. It is the best mod I have done thus far. You will send him a picture of you on the bike and he will recommend the mods that will fit you. Do it, you won't regret it!

    Shortest Windscreen?

    I went from a PUIG Double Bubble to the MRA Vario screen last week. The Vario is shorter and has a wing to adjust air flow. The MRA screen is much quieter than the PUIG. You can adjust where the air hits you and it also lseem to let the air flow thru my helmet better. Link - TwistedThrottle.com...

    How do you guys make your seats more comfortable

    I had Frank at this site http://greatdaytoride.com/Home_Page.php to rework my seat, best $75.00 I ever spent on the bike. Get the Supracore material. I also ordered an Alaska Butt Pad. With the mod and pad, I can now ride all day with very little discomfort!!!

    Speedo Healer and 15t install

    I installed a 15 t sprocket and Speedohealer last Sunday and all I can say is WOW!!!! Made the bike much easier to ride around town, just seems like you are always at the right place in the powerband cruising at town speeds. As for the extra wear issue, several bikes come with 14 and 15 tooth...
