thinking

Hi folks, this year the Naked Wazp turns 10. So I'm thinking its maybe time to venture to the showrooms and start the hunt in earnest. I have been looking at specs on a range of bikes but it comes down to $$$ and the bang for buck I have looked at Guzzis and I have looked at Ducatis- when I...

i am in winter maintenance mode, and this year I want to do a thorough cleanup of some nasty parts. My 05 Silver has front disk carriers that are painted black, but there are small spots where the paint has disappeared. I was thinking of stripping all the paint off then using a buffing wheel...

Bike is an 05 which puts it at 12 years old... Millage is 30K Miles... Currently having a problem with the starer switch and when I took it apart today I found the wire broke off from the switch contact. New assembly is $75 and I am thinking about buying that instead of soldering it back...

I was going to get an LED bulb but then I remembered we have that adapter for H7 and the bulb will have a fan of some sort on them. If I'm thinking correctly we can't use LED headlight bulb? Maybe just go for dual headlights instead? My mistake, forgetting the bulb itself is not plugged in the...

I was thinking of Friday... Anyone else going?

Anyone used these volar brake pad sets sold by d2moto on amazon? Super cheap, but if they work I'll get two. If they are truly garbage (which is where I'm thinking) where do you guys get your pads from? Tried using the search function but when "Brake" has no matching results I'm doing something...

So I just finished my second ever track day at Gingerman raceway. My first was three years ago at ACC, and both were done on my well worn FZ6. I'm thinking I'm going to do many, many more of these and I was really impressed with what I was able to do with what is basically a standard motorcycle...

Can anybody give me the part number for the headlight relay? Mine stopped working a while back so I installed a jumper in the wire and bypassed it, I no longer have the relay though and am thinking about selling/trading my bike so I want to fix it right.

Thinking of selling my beloved FZ6. Do you think I should part her out or sell as is?

Probably about time for me to clean my brakes and change the fluid, and I'm thinking about changing to SS lines while I'm at it. I was wondering: a) Is there any meaningful difference in quality between different suppliers of SS lines? b) Do they all do two lines from the MC, or is there a...

Well me and 3 friends of mine got thinking and we all thought it would be great to plan a 4 day trip to Normandy (From North Holland). It will be 1 day ride to get there (with a break and/or a bit of minor road riding), 2days riding around the area and then the trip home (also with a stop off...

Hey All, New member here from London, grabbed my FZ6 S2 (07 model) last week. Really excited about it but have a few things to take care of, before it's on the road. So general questions/thoughts: - Was thinking of getting an aftermarket exhaust (maybe Scorpion) to ensure the bike is...

As the title title states anybody starting one on this site. I was in one on here last year and would like to do it again. I would prefer not to be commish but can do it if need be. I was thinking standard scoring, yahoo, 8 or 10 man league for $20 a person. Anybody interested?

So I finally picked up my bike and started getting her back up to par. The previous owner didn't do that great a job taking care of her. :( I was cleaning off the chain and noticed a large build-up of that black tar/grime/gunk stuff on the underside of the bike, on the wheels, etc. I take off...

These came off from my dads bike, don't know much about them but they move your feet up and back about an inch maybe a little more. Im thinking $85 but again don't know alot about them

I tried the drilling mod, tried to be strong and not change the exhaust ( and failed). The install was pretty uneventful, I'm leaving the dB killer in. The sound is great ( how a sports-ish bike should sound), I think ( based on seat of pants dyno) it revs faster and goes a bit better. I...

The wife sent me a pic today of the uncooperative dashboard. I told her its like a TV whose's time is up. For an 11 year old bike, i'll say its time is up. I'm thinking of keeping one dashboard unit in the storeroom in case mine decides to meet its maker too.

I had the chance to sit on a RC 390 at the Chicago IMS over the weekend. I'm really thinking about picking one up. I'll wait until the US owners report on quality, but I'm really thinking about buying one Fall 2015 or Spring 2016. What do you guys think?

Hi! I am going to buy Motovation frame sliders. What do you think about any other sliders to protect FZ6? Are there any sliders apart from frame sliders worth thinking about?

Hello UK riders, The hubby and I are planning a 10 day to 2 week trip in April of 2015 to the UK and I am hoping you all can help with some ideas of what we must see and do. We are thinking of spending a few days in London to site-see (we've been to other parts of Europe but not the UK)...
