Hey guys, long time no see but I've been up to no good at the track beating an old R6 into the ground. :D I know this has been discussed but wasn't having any luck with the search. I lost my key and the backup (which I know I should never even have used) shortly after. No idea how, in fact...

Been spending a bit of time banging the FZ6 around the track lately and I'm finding myself scraping the pegs a lot. Haven't had luck searching here for higher/more aggressive rearsets, does anybody still sell any? Thanks all!

Hi all, trying to figure out how to remove my mirrors on the 08 FZ6. I pulled the rubber sheath down but it doesn't seem there's a way to remove them that way. Do I need to unbolt the fairing to get at it? Thanks.

Email me at [email protected] if you'd be so kind. Thanks! Found, thanks for the offers!

So I bought a set if the eBay levers along with everyone and their mother last month. Got 'em today and they installed without much trouble but theres a ton of play in the levers, and I found that the screws holding the moving pieces together are super loose on both levers. I have the hex...

I park my bike inside a parking garage beneath my apartment complex. I had to cage it for a few days last week when my girlfriend noticed my bike had been moved and some bicycle racks had been installed along where my bike had been positioned. The bars were locked but I guess was that was no...

Looking for the stock windscreen for an 08 FZ6, mine got really scuffed up when I used some sort of unfriendly cleaner on mine that screwed it up. Figure a few of you guys have the stock screen laying around with no use for it, name your price and if I think it's reasonable I'll pay however you...

Got a GoPro HD recently and took a couple of test runs a few days ago. Thought I'd share here. Needless to say, it's a great little toy, I'm loving it. They're all in 720p, if you want to view that hit up youtube, the first one has the best view and compression. I added 4:3 to the second because...

Got the Puig Black Racing Windscreen last night and popped it in. Easiest "mod" ever. My old clear one actually ended up getting pretty badly scuffed when I cleaned it with a brillo pad without thinking. :confused: Any ideas on how to make this clear again? I've been thinking about...

Read they'd bolt right on to the FZ6 but didn't know that was only true for up to the 06 models. If you have 07-09 then they won't work. I bought 'em for $30 from Amazon, I'll sell them for that and ship for free in the US. Or if you live in WA and feel like taking a ride to come get them...

I've been riding a lot in the past week out here in WA, Saturday I took a pretty decent trip around the mountains. 250 miles, 5 hours (incl. 1 hour stop) of relatively high speed mountain riding, all without incident. Here's the track data for those interested: uTrack - online GPX track report...

I took my friend's CBR to a parking lot so she could practice yesterday, quite the neat little ride. It felt likes I was crouching on top of the bike rather than sitting on it. With the boots on I'm probably rocking about 6'5" or so, the ergos are definitely not fit for my height. Beyond...

Someone mentioned in another thread that if you're a big guy then you should respring the bike, as it's already at its limits with just a larger rider. I'm pushing about 280 at 6'4" and if it's as important as indicated, I would like to have the bike resprung to suit my weight and possibly a...

Took my (recently dropped) bike to the shop on Friday to have them reattach the turn signal, the only real damage to it. Mechanic took a look under the fairing and said they'd need to get a new fairing to do it, as it's part of the fairing. Of course that'd be a small fortune so he recommended I...

Went to a friend's house this evening, he has a steep driveway so I decided to park on the less-steep street. As I was U-turning to leave, I dropped it on its right side. After I calmed myself I was able to lift it back up and get it to the side of the street so I could start it again. It was...

No, not on my skin, that'd grow back and I wouldn't care to bother you all with it. I discovered an error of sorts when I went to check on my Leo Vince install a couple weeks ago. A part of the plastic under the seat had melted to the seat (this made the seat quite difficult to remove as you can...

If you commute in a cold/mild/wet-weather climate and have fog problems with your helmet at all, you need to take a look at the pinlock system. I finally bought the shield with a clear and dark smoke insert and they're extremely effective. I rode around in the traffic last night for 15 minutes...

Hey all, I need some help with a clearance issue with my new exhaust. There's maybe a millimeter of clearance on one side and... well pretty much none on the other. I tried like hell to get them that far apart, but couldn't get any more space. Anything I can do, or can I ignore it? I took it out...

Hey, sorry for the repost but I think it got lost at the bottom of the install thread. I'm having trouble with this part. I took all six bolts off and I believe this screw stops me, on both sides. Pictured below, click for the full version. Am I missing something here? I hope so, because...

Hey all, I'm hoping to pull the trigger on a new exhaust soon, I found these Leos for $602 which seems like a pretty good deal in all the searching I've done. They only let me choose 2007, I have a 2008 but I'm assuming these will fit. Is there anything wrong with these at all? e.g. won't...
