    Grip heater installation instructions

    I just bought the oxford and was wondering if the install is as easy as it sounds. Any issues with getting the original grips off and especially the throttle tube? Also these don't have too high a draw for my fz06r 2009 do they? I think it is 48 watts.

    what oil filter do you use?

    Bosch oil filters. I used them in my fjr 06 with 123k miles and no problems. I will now use them in my wife's fz6r with hopefully the same results.

    Yamaha Canada Center Stand

    I got the one from twisted throttle and it came with directions, but in german. It also is the hardest centerstand to pull the bike up that I have ever had and I have had goldwings, fjr, st1300, tiger and so on. This is a real bitch to try to pull up.

    frame sliders

    no cut shogun sliders Bought and installed a set and they are not no cut. I had to bend the fairing around the mounting bolt and got it to work but am afraid the stress will crack the fairing sooner or later. I am thinking of getting a scapel and shaving away the fairing around the bold so it...

    Frame Sliders

    install of shogun sliders Just got a set with no installation instructions. One slider is longer than the other but that should make sense once I start the install. I read an earlier post where the person just nudged the fairing out of the way to install the o cut sliders but if anyone can...
