I had to get rid of her for a new Ninja 1000 with panniers.
The FZ6R never failed me and a very fun bike to ride with plenty of power for a beginner sport bike type. I will miss her.
The new Ninja 1000 is like the big brother to the FZ6R with alot more power and still retaining the upright...
So I did some editing to a movie and made into a 3 minute short movie and opened a Vimeo account, got the code and sent the video. It took forever to send it, at least 6-7 hours, WTF? Now I go back and look, I have no idea were it has gone and what it did with my little 3 minute movie. Any ideas?
Just picked up a new GoPro 3 Black with a bunch of attachments and the suction base but not sure were to mount it. I can't stick it on my helmet because of Washington state laws, I have a tinted windscreen so I'd rather not be looking through it. I did ride in this morning with it suction...
Went for a 450 mile ride into the mountain yesterday and the best mountain roads I have ever been on that are too remote for the police or any other law enforcement to patrol. Best ride ever with some really good riders with a ton of turns that were low speed and high speed.
I hooked with...
It is a Micron Serpent Header and the part number on the header appears to be HYDY41 then there is a M203 after that, not sure if that means anything. The header has been modified to fit a 2006 R6 but I am not sure how it sill fit my 12 FZ6R and or if I have to do any modification or not. I...
So running regular unleaded Chevron I got 38 MPG, my last tank I ran premium Chevron and got 46 MPG. Granted my bike might be a little more broke in with 756 miles now versus under 600 on the last tank but it's like driving a hybrid without everyone pointing and laughing.
Does anyone else keep...
I have seen a few 6R's with hard bags and would like to see some pictures and models of them and what all is needed to mount them properly.
I'd like to be able to take off for a few days this summer and need somewhere to store some clean undies if you know what I mean.
Installed the Shogun No Cut Frame Sliders after work today and they only took about 15 minutes to install. Super easy install, supplied bolts fit perfectly and they appear to stick out far enough for plenty of protection.
Not too sure how they act in the event of an accidental drop and...
I ordered 2 items from them on the 17th and I got a notification that the items won't ship till the 23rd or 24th and my shipment won't arrive for another week after that? I paid extra for shipping to get it sooner so I would have thought I would have gotten it within a week, not.
I order alot...
So in looking for a jacket I found the Atomic for $159 at the local dealer and it fit well, had the liner and some venting. It is waterproof even though I don't ride in the rain (yea yea I know). After wearing the jacket for a week I love it. very comfortable, great venting and lots of...
So after 400 miles and talking to friends I need a set. I have seen a couple of reviews and am not impressed with the T-Rex, what kind can I pick up for the FZ6 without a bunch of modification?
Any advice for a seat from any FZ6R owner. When I first picked up my new bike last week the seat felt pretty good but after a 150 mile trip to the mountains and back my butt hurts.
Only 260 miles so far and only been close to the redline trying to keep up with a friends CBR1000. Very...
Looking at either the 6 or 8, I know the 8 is a little bit more expensive but I like that the 6 has a bit more wind protection for freeway riding.
Does anyone know if there is that big of a difference in performance and handling between the 2 for daily summer driving and freeway driving...
