    I am/was running the Z8s and I just lost my rear tire this morning. They have about, 6500 miles on them. I commute mostly, with long weekend rides once or twice a month, there is a line down the center about 2 inches wide and 1 foot around the tire has just worn through. It was raining when I...

    New Member with a 2009 FZ6!

    Welcome to the best forum ever. I have the same ride but in the faster blue. Mine looks nothing like that any more though.

    Is it wrong that I want one??

    First thing I thought of was how long do you think I can get away with driving that around inside a Toys R US. Looks super fun even if I do have to cram onto it.

    headlight

    I went with the Speed Triple like head lights, I am not a huge fan of some of the futuristic looking kits you can get for the front end. The only thing I don't like about the lights that I have now is I cannot get HIDs in them...yet.

    05 FZ6 Complete Part Out

    Is any of this bike still available? I am looking for those separate handle bar brackets on the top triple. I have the large one piece crest and would like the 2 pieces so I can mount things on the bar between them since I run clip-ons now.

    24 hour newbie goes down; seeking feedback

    I would definitely suggest making space in the garage to do a 3 or 15 point turn, From what the pics look like my garage is possibly narrower, and flanked on both sides with workbenches, shelves, surplus remodeling supplies, and kids toys and bicycles. I use my basement door to turn mine. I...

    Adjustable Shifter

    I like your Idea about modding the lever but I think you may be better off with a different set of boots. I too do a lot of Riding and Hiking, and I have different riding boots for those activities. I have some race boots for just straight aggressive riding trips but when I go into the Parks...

    Operation "SPEEDFazer"

    The tail is actually what I am working on right now. I pretty much just took it off, but I still have a fairly large Shiny 2Bros exhaust sticking out the back, which I kinda like. The tail light and signals are off though and I am creating a bracket to add a new aftermarket tail/brake light...

    Operation "SPEEDFazer"

    I love the S3s, can't afford one so I went a similar route and changed up my FZ. now I can't stop changing it, modding, performance, cosmetic or otherwise is too much fun. I am gonna stop after this last bout though so it doesn't end up like some overly Botox'd supermodel. Gonna start the...

    All four turn indicators not working...

    DannyFZ6, I had a similar thing happen to me and I found that it was my Tail fuze. The plate lights were wired backwards and it blew the fuze repeatedly. I went through about 15 fuzes before I figured it out. I refused to believe I wired it wrong. silly me. The weird think was that I...

    Guys Help! How much is left on my tires?

    I would say you have plenty of tread left, I ran my PR3s till the center tread was pretty much gone, a little over 11k (see pic). That does look strange to me, whats going on there. I would definitely keep an eye on them considering some issues that have been reported about the PR3s...

    PR3's

    I ran the PR3 for about 11,000 miles. They were awesome in the Wet and great in the hot and humid we get around here. My only issue was at the end when they squared off pretty bad. But I'll get that with any tire I imagine. I switched to The Z8s and they perform quite well in the wet I have...

    Woodcraft Clip-On Risers 1" AND 2.5" Risers w/ 10mm forward extension $250

    Got the Clip-ons in the mail yesterday, thanks again. Can't wait to put them on this weekend. BTW your Project looks awesome, I've been contemplating the same type of modding but I need another bike to ride first before I begin chopping. If I knew you would have so many parts I may have bought...

    Cafe Fighter FZ6

    I put the clubman cafe bars on mine. I like the aggressive feel when riding, but I also commute and I couldn't get enough pull back and it made my wrists hurt pretty bad. I just switched back to the FZ1 bars to see if my wrists like it a little better. With the clubmans you can tuck in real...

    FZ6 Spotted in Telegraph web article

    http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02225/Commute_2225803c.jpg I caught this on the interwebs the other day and wondered if this was any of you folks over the pond in the photo.

    BEWARE MICHELIN 2CTs!

    I have got about 8k+ miles on my pr3s, the rear was made in Thailand 3411. The front was also Thailand, 1810. I'll be keeping an eye on them both but I have seen no issues as of yet. I must say your tire looks very suspicious how it fell apart. That seems to me like a defect of some sort.

    Did I Blow a Fuse?

    I blew this fuse Saturday night, the plate lights that came with my TB exhaust shorted out some how. I didn't realize the tail light was out and my wife and I were out until midnight. I was kinda pissed when I got home, I was OK with the hand signals but If I knew the tail was out we would...
