I have the kevlar reinforced draggin jeans.
and the boots i was wearing were linked in an earlier post. I'll be getting some hard shell boots during my recovery period along with a new helmet :D
Further news ensues!
Doctor from the hospital called me to tell me to go to my GP and organise a CT scan as further viewing of my xrays showed abnormalities.
CT scans showed multiple fractures in my Talus bone!
I am now half cyborg!
I've also gotten my bike back and have included...
Well i FELT i was in control the whole way - was loving it...i was going quick for myself - my mates on the bandit 1250 and triumph speed triple left me for dead...but i guess being unfamiliar with the road i was pushing too hard.
up till that point i could feel i had more in me but was happy...
Yeah - way it felt...well loose...was rather unsettling.
then shock kicked in and things went crazy!
but all good! still on crutches but on the mend - i can put pressure on the ankle now but its still swollen and painful.
RE: boots i was wearing: Boots
I haven't got bike bots as yet - still...
Cheers guys.
Been getting plenty of well wishes...along with everyone caring about the bike damage more than my injuries! haha
"omg what happened?"
oh yeah hurt my foot blah blah blah
"OH SHIT - how's the bike?"
Pricks!
Had my first down yesterday :(
Heading up Macquarie Pass (a really nice bit of road - switch backs and hair pins on the mountain).
Came up to a tight hair pin with a rather retarded gradient - goes up about 3 meters in the space of 2...very steep and uneven.
Coming off the back of some...
so i went through the UK parts catalogue...after some back and forth its listed under the model XJ6F(A).
hope this works!
Im sure if you took your part numbers to your local yam dealer they could sort you out.
There ain't much down here!
they got general stores and stuff but the only OEM stuff i've found is here:
2011 Yamaha FZ6R OEM Parts | MotoSport Australia
BUT!
When you go to headlight it gives you this:
All OEM products on this site are for USA models.
sooooo...who knows! haha
EDIT...
Yeap!
Still an FZ6R down here.
Though the wiring will most likely bit a little different - some splicing and you can fix that!
Wouldn't have the foggiest idea what the part number etc is - i could do some ringing around if you'd like but I found this...
My parts came in!
Spent the day putting on:
Puig Tire Hugger
DMP Integrated tail light
DMp Fender Elim
Shogun no cut sliders
Forgot to get number plate lights so i went down to the local bike shot and got generic bold style LED's.
VERY happy with the look now :D
Needs to decide what i'm...
The other thing I love is the Bluetooth phone deal...I'm leaning again towards the contour...just need to save the pennies!
I just dropped $500 on mods etc...camera can wait a few weeks haha

I'd see my self purchasing a go pro for the bike and then getting something for my helmet as well.
the fixed mounting is fine - i'd just want to show you know...stuff to my left and right etc etc
my issue with the go pro - box on my helmet!
I know I know...I don't see it...but i passed a guy the other day with a go pro on his helmet and well...its not a look i wish to cultivate hahaha!
Hi All,
Stumbled across this video when researching my camera needs.
Side by side comparison or 4 popular action cams
I was leaning towards the Contour but when I saw the night time footage I'm back to square 1 with my decision -.-
Anyways - hope this is helpful to someone :D
It seems the website has been updated somewhat.
here is the direct link to the item:
FZ6R Derestrictor
I went with the purchase in case i wish to sell the bike at a later date I can put the LAMS restrictor back on no probs.
