I have a 2004 FZ6, I just got the bike April 1st and it was stolen this past Monday and just (fortunately) recovered. There was no damage, but I tried to start it and it wouldn't start so I had it towed to my place and thought I would try to get it up and running.
The bike doesn't turn on...
Nobody here will remember but 5 years ago I took my FZ from Toronto to Sarasota. That was quite ordeal since I managed to do it on weekend when they measured highest temperatures ever recorded in Eastern part of USA. So this time going back I was not to repeat past mistakes.
What happened is...
Picked up my bike this morning, Tracer 900, unfortunately in the slower blue colour :)
Took the picture near the old Musketeers quarters, here in town.
For 14 months I was the Chief Engineer for ICBM Maintenance here at Hill AFB, 2010-11. This morning, traffic was all screwed up coming into work, something happened on the main road between the west and east campuses on base. Soon learned there was a bad motorcycle/auto accident, then later...
Well Facebook gave me a reminder this morning that I'm going to the Assen TT tomorrow, as if I'd forget :rolleyes:
Looking forward to it, I went with the kids last year (kids under 15 are free on the grass banks) but unfortunately they both have some pretty heavy end of school year exams this...

I thought it had some handy tips :thumbup:.
Joep our cat was killed on Monday night/ Tuesday morning.
He was poisoned by a guy in the street who put down poisoned chicken on a patch of public ground, next to his house. There has been 4 other cats who have been killed and a couple missing.
As you can imagine I'm devastated, especially...

Hi all,
Have had my 06 Fz6 for a few years now, this morning I was leaving for work and made sure to drop my bike in the driveway in slow motion, it was more like laying it down for a nap gently (using my right leg as a pillow, I might add). It has frame sliders on, which it rested on nicely...
Couple of friends are organizing a small ride this weekend, either to Bear Mnt, Palisades toward NJ, or Whiteplains/Yonkers. Will start morning. Anyone in the area free to join or voice an opinion :rockon:.
Over the last week or so I have noticed that on cornereing my bike doesn't track exactly how I figure it should. I checked tire pressures and it was all ok, only about 5000kms on the Z8's so plenty of life there still.
Tha handling is like hitting a tar snake or riding along a white lane...
This morning I came out of my apartment to find my bike on its side! To cut the story short, two men in the early hours of the morning pushed my bike over. A senseless act. I'm feeling gutted and heart broken. The frame sliders caught the fall but my clutch lever, lever mount, handle bar and...
