I don't think it's overkill. I think it makes perfect sense! :thumbup:

... and I forgot to mention. Welcome! :welcome: I haven't been active since 2013 but now back on again. :wav:

You may want to check my post in the "Argh! It's the end!!!!" thread. If you're really serious riding in snow, you should look into getting your tires studded because even with the best dual sport tires won't cut it. You can find tire studs online, here's one that actually sells it Grip Studs...

Ah, gotcha! I was wondering... lol This incident actually happened to me except for a car. The dealer wanted to charge about $1,200 for new SAM and set of keys since I lost all keys. I wasn't sure if I had left the key in the car but I ended up buying an air wedge for about $10. Grabbed a...

What happened? :confused:

Apparently the guy in the picture doesn't think it's the end. :) -- Here's the video: EXTREME 258 KM/H SUR LA GLACE : MATCH PORSCHE GT3 RS FACE A YAMAHA YZF 1000 R1 As far as suggestions goes... There are these options:

See answer below, and above, which is located in the second post. :facepalm:

Good luck on the ICON helmet! Just my opinion, ICON has been out since 2002 and manufacturer a broad spectrum of gears from jackets to helmet, etc. Shark on the other hand have been in the industry since 1986 and only specializes in helmets. Most, if not all, of their helmets are ECE and...

You may not have a good selection... If anything you can wear bionic gear on your clothes if you want something breathable. With my daily commute, I wear full leathers and pants in the hot 90 degree weather. Whenever I take off my gear, no sweat. Why? Because I wear a base layer...

I'm about to put the clip-ons on. That sounded redundant. lol My current set up are Renthal Ultra Low bars with Pro Grip and shorty levers. I'll have the Renthal bar for sale soon and I have a pair of sealed, brand spanking new Pro Grips! I guess I am uncool since I opted for heated grips for...

I highly doubt it will do damage. -- More than anything I think your bike will smell like AC exhaust or whatever is inside the building being blown from. Hopefully it's something delicious.

What he said... Or... PlastiDip! I dipped my bike and took it off when I wanted a new color. Actually, I took it off because a hair got stuck on it. Hah. Nice thing about it, don't like the look, peel it off! No need for paint thinners! You can easily use 3 cans of PlastiDip for the entire bike...

The uncool kids may be uncool, but let's see who really is uncool when something happens and not wearing any gear... Skip to 1:20 in the video. And listen to the "uncool" kid. lol "Wear your gear kids, wear your gear!"

You sir have a nice location to ride in... :thumbup: I'm from NorCal too but except I ride in traffic. lol Clean bike, what headlights are those from?

The Yamaha dealer. -- I lost a bolt from the front caliper and instead of me going to Home Depot or hardware store, I went to the dealer and paid < $5 for the bolt. Going that route I know for a fact that it's from the factory and made for the bike, in other words, OEM. :cool:

Never mind... I ended up getting the Roaring Toyz. :cool:

Popular for cruisers... That's probably why they don't exist for most sports bikes. -- If you were to make custom fab just for it, you might as well save the time and energy and just lower the front. With that said, many people lowered the front and so far have not heard any issues, the other...

Anyone have them installed? Pros and cons? TRex Yamaha 2009 2013 FZ6R Lowering Links

Anyone does or have retrofit headlight in the Bay Area?

Thanks, I thought about that. I was also thinking of adding the "halo" effect. The ones on eBay is on the pricey side, and comes from China...
