Seems like I'm one of the few out there that even gave these tires a try. I commute with my 6R so when I found nails on both the front and rear tires (Q2s), I didn't bother trying plugs; just went straight for new tires. Of course I found the nails on a Sunday morning when all the bike shops...

Q2 vs S20 Hey Jon I've tried the Q2 and S20 on the track and I like them both. The Q2 does have a steep edge because I can let the bike fall quick on the turns. The S20 isn't as steep, but it's not sluggish at all. What surprised me was that I thought I was close to the tire edge with my...

Just changed my sprockets (stock sizes) and chain with the help of the FZ6R community. Could've gotten away with doing it in 2 hours, but I ended up cleaning the nooks and crannies. Plus it took me some time to figure out the chain riveting tool. I found a kit at Cycle Gear for $29.99 on sale...

Saddles? Wow! It's been a long time since I've been on here... I don't remember those bags! Here's my 2 bikes: I thought I was going to give up the FZ6R when I bought the Gixxer... couldn't do it. I still love this bike for my everyday riding! I'm trying to plan a long road trip with it...

Hey Joe! Got a 1999 CBR600 F4 with lots of "make you go fast" parts!

I did just that! Haven't been on this forum this year coz I got caught up with getting a track bike and doing trackdays. I love our bike, but it just doesn't hold up when you're on the track. Can you take it to a track? Yes, but it doesn't give me a lot of confidence. Try not to push our...

Anyone seen this? PackJack - Home Better yet, anyone have one? I have a stand, but since I live in an apartment complex, it's hard to use it. My parking stall is slanted so I have to wait for an open spot that's even.

Boooo! Booooo! :D

Can't say it enough - ride safe. After reading your post, I'm jealous about a couple of things...R1! Are you kidding me? With the wifey's blessing at that. I'm also jealous of you guys that can fit the sport bikes with stock setup. Vertically challenged guys like me either have to settle, or...

I like how it's different, but overall, it does look "cross-eyed". If I was in the market for an FE, I don't think I would even consider this.

GREAT! Now you tell me!:)

CS - wiring looks great! I tried to call 2 dealers, and they didn't seem willing to order the OEM wiring for me so I ended up cutting mine when I installed my Protons. Sucks, but what can you do when these guys don't want to help!:mad:

In Northern California that is! Shot with a Go Pro cam, but not HD. Not really the best ride, but it's my first time riding at the Marin Headlands by Golden Gate Bridge. Took it a bit slow since I wasn't sure what to expect. Just something to watch so if you out-of-state guys come around...

I don't think any of the flushmounts are more conspicuous than the OEM signals. I'm just saying that the Protons are more visible than the other flushmounts. Vids look like normal effect, but I actually wired it to do strobe effect. I think it has something to do with me just recording on...

I got the Proton flushmounts...and yes $99. I chose this over the regular flushmounts found in EBay. I've seen a couple of R6s with these and they don't look visible in the front at all. The Protons are so much better as far as visibility! $99 is a bit much for cosmetic, but it makes up for...

how much did the front setup cost you guys (joloy and stuna)? It might be me, but I don't see the part# on the pdf file on their webpage.

Just another option: Sport Bikes scroll near the bottom and you'll see the FZ6R project link. It's going to be one of my mods this winter, I just need to find a tech that can do it for me since I live in an apartment with no garage.

arc - I did notice that you only had one row lit on the running lights and they weren't too visible after you left us behind:D If it's just wiring, and all lights are supposed to be on, I might consider the integrated light again.

Funny how JoshF mentioned the Dainese store in SF... I ended up with 2 Drake Tex pants. When I started riding, I watched too many YouTube vids of guys going down so I opted to go with the pants. I got two because the pants got hot in the summer and legs sweat a lot. I needed to rotate. Now...

For the Bay Area guys, check this out: CLASS Motorcycle Schools:: The Nations Premier Street Motorcycle School This is the best $300 I've spent on the bike so far. I was able to push the bike to my limits, but doing it with great instructions. MSF gets you the base knowledge, but CLASS...
