Got in trouble at work for watching too many youtube videos on how to mod the fz6r. Boss bsaid it was IT that ratted me out but I think it was the guy in the cubicle next to me. He heard a lot of bikes reving yesterday. ;)
I'll ask the dealership how other riders deal with it. There is the option of keeping the old exhaust and changing it back to stock for emissions test.
Hey Fazer, used to live in Vegas! Moved out in 2005 and have been meaning to visit. I know Sampsel and Preston, the photographers, need to go visit!
I live in Orange county now, I have been looking at buying rental property out there. Build up equity so I can get a house out here lol.

Any vehicle vinyl will do, make sure it is UV protected so it won't fade. If you remove it years down the road you will find a mint stock paint job. So it preserves the resell value, you can have your own taste without worrying about having a limited market to sell to.
This site has 3M, you...
Thanks! I was considering doing it outside, but I guess I'll use my friends garage.
If all goes well, I may do it on the side for extra money. Bike mods and tattoos are expensive. At the rate I'm saving it will take me a year to do my bike and three more for my tattoo.
I've thought about getting matching fairing bolts for whatever color I go. I am still leaning towards the blue trim, with blue adjustable clutch and brake leavers. I think it looks incredible, but all matte black with chrome bolts, exhaust and leavers would pop as well.
I am going solid...
So I decided to take the plunge. I'm going to hold off on making my bike a street fighter. That is a lot of work just to get mounting gear for the headlights and gauges. I live in an apartment so I can't fab my own.Plus, I don't want to modify or sell my stock parts. I want to be able to switch...
I've always used the rear brake, just enough not to lock it up. On wet I've used it a lot more, guess it was just the way my grandfather taught me on dirt bikes.
I didn't know you could use it to get a tighter turn. There is one nasty turn that caught me by surprise both time I took the Ortega...
Salut Marthy! Vous allez bien?
I speak French much better than I write, lived in Annecy for four years in France so I might have a bit of a yokel accent!
I am really interested in your exhaust system. I have a 2012 FZ6R. I tried the 5 minute exhaust mod, and it wasn't enough. I would...
So you used some conduit hanger clamps? Also, the bracket, where did you get that and are the gauges attached to that?
Sorry to bother, but nearly all the information on this forum is vague, for a beginner like me that is daunting. The viper exhaust information is terrible.
I have a question, I'm thinking of going naked this weekend. Is it possible to to use the Lowe's bracket to mount my headlight and stock electronic displays without any permanent modification? I still have a loan on the bike and don't want to do anything irreversible.
