I'll be thinking of mine fondly, winterized it and locked it in a storage container,
heading back to Afghanistan in a few days, I'm spending the winter there....

gonna order up a taller screen, frame sliders and try the Motek luggage I
scooped cheap, I'll see it again in April :(

For the FZ1, I am going to make a custom exhaust bracket and get rid of the pillion brackets and pegs. Order Copperdog's sub-throttle plates for that mod.

For her FZ6R, I have some T-Rex no-cut sliders sitting in front of me. I have in the mail a 1.75" rear lowering link and shorter kick stand from Roaring Toyz. I'll be dropping her triples on the forks as well. Customizing the fender much like I did on the FZ1.

Both bikes will get new screens. :D

Think i'm going to put on some powerbronze lowers. I recently reduced the size of my stock rear hugger. Highly recommended for showing off the 180 rear and cleaning up the back of the bike.

Hey Ant,I just got around(finally)to installing a new relay for my Stebel just yesterday !

Yea, I didn't protect my first relat well enough and it went one me. I just connected the stebel to the switch. You can really tell it's not as powerful as it was, and I've blown a fuse at least once(maybe twice).

Yup,mine went out too but it was inside the fairing,I don't think it was that good to start with .I went straight to the switch to .I agree ,much louder with the relay.

Going to get belly pan, exhaust cover, headlight cowls (moles?) and a few other little things painted. Maybe a Hyperpro shock spring. With the new racetechs out front the rear seems really vague and crappy now.
