Just had an idea about a sticky thread. Since there are always threads going around asking about certain items, and how they look on your bike, why dont we make a sticky thread that lists all those items?
Example. We have one "stickied" thread that just says "How does it look on your bike" Then inside that thread, we have a break down for each item that will take you to that specific thread.
On the main thread you could have:
<link> Mirrors
<link> Naked Front ends
<link> Levers
<link> Seats
... etc...
Then when you click on... say the "mirrors" thread, you see...
Post pictures of the mirrors you have on your bike, how you like them, how much you paid, and where you got them


No off topic posts.. just everyone who has aftermarket mirrors, post up a picture where you got them, how you like and the price. that way we can all see whats out there. Dont be afraid to list the same item more than once. Red on red may look good, but black on black doesnt. or Black on red might look better than red on red etc...

Just seems like it would be a really helpful way to see all the options out there. alot of times we see items on a website, but are unfamiliar with how they would actually look on our bike.

For example right now im looking for new mirror options (hence this thread idea). and it would be great for me to just go.. "well lets just see whats out there... click click click.. oh those are sweet". Rather than search and search and search 38 threads only to come across 10 or so pics.

Just an idea... what'cha think?
 
I think this is a great idea. I have spent hours searching this forum, bikepics.com, and magazines trying to find "like" parts before. It would be great to be able to see something on the FZ before making the purchase.
 
Good idea. Start the thread, and then ask an admin to make it a sticky.

I can post pictures of what a bone stock FZ6 looks like. Some of you may have forgotten with all the modifying that you're doing.

I've been wanting some better organization also. Some members have put together some nice charts, lists, etc, but the search function on this site isn't very good. I searched 'track day' and didn't find a title with the words 'track day' in them until the 3rd or f4th page. Those should be on the first page, no? I'm sure the search function seeks out the search topic based on some system, but I think a lot of the repeated thread topics could be avoided if 'search' worked better. Maybe the sub-catergories should also be broken down further?:don'tknow: That way same mirror question can either be asked a million times, or accessed within the 'mirror' section without clogging up the "mods' section... But I could be completely off base, I've been drinking.
