    Exhaust help!

    The issue when I had originally posted in the other link, is that Leo Vince USA hadn't started importing them yet. I suppose with enough determination (and $), one COULD import from Europe. However, that'd be a bit pricey though. There are several videos on YouTube to make the assessment on...

    Bent gear shifter

    It'd bend back. Watched my MSF instructor bend a coupla levers back, for those who dropped their GZ250 bikes; they also have a similar mild steel construction. Aluminum levers on the nice bikes (CBR, R6)--yeah, those WON'T bend. Those I'd replace.

    My new (to me) gear setup!

    $275! That's awesome! Dang. And I *just* spent over $1K for all my bits... :( Where, where?!!! :D

    racetech fork mod

    Pardon if I sound dense, but would be possible to just get some 41mm fork caps with preload adjusters on there? I know this wouldn't do anything for damping, but only to adjust spring preload... has anyone tried this/would it work??

    Leaning Machine

    Whoa! Big difference! Same here, similar weight, changed it to "5." Wow.

    FZ6R Sales

    Claiming one's up 130% is vastly different than what I said being of 130% of my peak. A prepositional difference exists there. If you'll re-read my posts; I've NEVER said I'm UP 130%, only OF. Instead of posting further, since all that will happen is a circular "debate" (see example above)...

    Flashing people!

    Sweet! Perhaps you can let me know which resistor(s) to use, and how to wire? I admittedly, well, SUCK at wiring things. :D

    FZ6R Sales

    From the standpoint of a logic string, if one does not doubt that one is up, yet immediately subsequent, another clause stating the contrary would indicate a paradox at best; at worst it's a lucid sign of spewing forth a not insignificant quantity of your common North American lexicon. The...

    Tickets

    True! One of my buddies is a motor cop for the CHP... I think it has to do w/ the fact that they're professionals, plus most California drivers are SUPER aware of CHP on bikes... not as likely to get hit? Just my two cents...

    FZ8/Phazer

    Great write-up! Note: all text below is purely an opinion of one! YMMV; different bikes pull at different peoples' heart strings! :) Granted, I'm going through significant post-purchase affirmation :), but I just have super difficulty in getting excited over a Japanese naked bike. They just...

    FZ6R Sales

    The other issue is that at least around here, dealers weren't really wiling to negotiate. Other than my dealer from whom I finally bought my FZ6R, the other FIVE dealers were between $7100 and $7300 OTD. Granted, taxes are nearly 10%, but it almost seemed like they were all acting in collusion...

    Flashing people!

    +1 on the false advertising! But before I digress, as I have recently in another thread... I would suppose that might depend on what resistance value you have, in the resistors that have already been wired in. I've these sitting on my work bench, these load resistor kits (scroll nearly to the...

    I want a FZ6R but have ?

    Best of luck, whichever route you choose! I don't think you'll be disappointed w/ the FZ6R. With regards to the worry of grabbing too much throttle, just do the "slightly below level" on the wrist. You can't possibly apply too much throttle that way; the angle of your hand won't allow it! If...

    New levers

    G-d it... sorry about that... was rather bleary eyed, skimming it last night. Curious to see how the end product turns out. Super interested, at $40!

    FZ6R Sales

    Christ, you don't really read a whole lot, do ya? I guess you just do most of the talking in a conversation. As I *just* indicated, back out the contributions to the tune of $7500 (give or take a hundred, because, quite literally, anything < $100 I don't particularly care). I'm still up...

    FZ6R Sales

    Back out $7.5K in contributions in the past year. I'm still substantially up. ;) Worse comes to worse, I'll revert back to my 130% estimate. :D

    FZ6R Sales

    Granted, this was from the end of Q1 (seeing as Q2 was just two days ago), but I stand corrected... I guess I was wrong... it wasn't 130%... it's more. :D [image removed] But then again, hey, what do I know... My product on which I'm directly assigned (just one product) just grossed over $5M...

    Fuel Controllers? Best ones?

    I'd agree w/ all the other folks, and I have JB myself! :) Entrepreneurial? Hit up Two Bros to see if they'd be interested in testing out/making a JuiceBox PRO for our bikes! Then, you'd have same if not better adjustability than the PCV! :)

    New levers

    I'm more curious to understand if the shorty levers (wherever the levers are made) will clear the plastic switch housings on our bikes... BTW, $40/ea or $40/pair??
