A question aimed at the naked all year riders (with cold winters), how much of a difference would you say that a full fairing actually makes?
I'm looking to upgrade to something around the litre mark and there are some nice street fighters that im considering - CB1000R, Z1000 etc (forgive...

Looking for a headlight assembly for my bike. Hoping that someone that has done a 'naked' conversion has one they don't need in their garage anymore. LMK what you have. Thanks!
Hey guys,
Looking to get some mirrors for my naked FZ6, but can't really decide on what to get.
I've never been a fan of the bar end ones, but maybe it's really the only way to go to not dirsrupt the looks of the bike?
Not many people ride naked bikes in my area, so haven't seen that...
Just got hit by a car.
Hit and run.
I've already replaced the headlights and front fairing with stock before.
Looking to do a naked conversion.
Starting off with the headlights.
Anyone else have trouble with the throttle cables after going naked and using a FZ1 bar? When I pull the throttle out farther, it seems to snap back better. Do I have to go back to the factory bars? This is really starting to get me frustrated!
I also tried to lube the throttle cables but...
I bought this Headlight from eh89. I Fabricated my own brackets due to the fact i couldn't see paying for one that i would have to alter anyways. I have ordered me a FZ1 handlebar and will install it when it comes in. I put new LED signals on the front and back. Overall i think it came out good...
I bought a 2007 FZ6 (blue) in 2013. I LOVE the bike. The previous owner made it into a naked bike. I love the look. The picture included is the headlight mod that he chose. While I like the look, he wired it incorrectly. I had the wiring repaired, although it had already melted the...
So, this was one of those things I had always planned to do when I got the 2008 FZ6. Sport tourer in the spring with fairing, streetfighter for canyon fun and city looks otherwise. Just did a 300 mile or so canyon excursion last weekend, and can say fricken AMAZING; rides like a totally new...
Sold! (07-29-2012)
Just as the title states; I have a brand new, never installed, LeaN69 Naked Speedometer bracket for 2007-2009 applications. I purchased this with the first group buy late last year. Great quality product, ready to make a naked bike happy.
Here is a link to the original...

One of the things that bothers me the most about the naked FZ6, is the poor lighting of the FZ6-N headlight.
Some people on the forum have put a plug and play HID replacement bulb into their headlight, which does give a much improved lighting.
However, with this sort of HID replacement...
So here are a few shots of my almost complete streetfighter winter project. Big thanks to Vishnu (dev_usc) for an awesome VS-02 kit straight from India. Great kit, awesome to work with, and I really recommend to anyone.
In addition to the kit, I also added a PowerBronze belly pan (painted...

When installing the FZ16 headlight i came across a few minor issues.
Due to some vibrations at higher rpms, I inspected the light and found a few places where the metal vibrated or the plastic rubbed the forks.
To fix these issues I purchased:
2 M6-1.00-25mm bolts to use to mount the...
