Not one look Is there nobody in South Florida looking?

Hello everyone. I have a 2009 FZ6R in Yellow for sale in Hollywood Florida. The bike has just under 4,000 miles on it and has been serviced by the local dealer. There are two modifications. The first is the addition of Stainless braided brake lines for the front only. The lines are black to...

I think your going about this all wrong. Hi, I believe that you need to go back and reassess your reason for buying in the first place. You mentioned buying a bike that you would ride occasionally. The two bikes your looking at are completely different. I own two bikes. The FZ6R and a 2009...

News flash If I am not mistaken, many of the cops out in Cali. ride BMW R1200RT's. Is that right? Because if it is, they can chase you down at will. Your not going to be outrunning a BMW. Now if it's Harley, your gonna win! One final thought. If your going too fast they know natural...

Just for the record Hi all, Just so you know, all of the places he was, including the courthouse are real. The building he left is the Plantation court House and Oakland Park is a suburb of Fort Lauderdale. Seems we have more then our fair share of go fast squids around here. Long flat and...

No slop here Hi, No slop at all in my drive. Chop the thottle and nothing stupid happens.

I have owned a late model BMW Bike... Better read Hi, I had a 2008 BMW R1200RT. Let me first tell you that it simply blows away anything else on the road. Period! It is fast, comfortable, efficent, has all the toys, and you could hop on it and go across town or across the country. I loved the...

It is so on. Just you wait till winter here!! It is on!! Just you wait till the French Canadians invade this winter. I will be snapping away. Thongs and flipflops on Harleys. And helmets, forget about it! Just you wait!! Ha.

Not for fz6r Sorry, will not fit. Looks nice however!

I agree to a point. I suppose most of the riding I do is on flat land and it seems many of the roads around here (south Florida) are beat up. The economy has the local governments skimping on repairs. For this reason I am actually happy the suspension is not that stiff. I suppose progressive...

Hi all, Being from South Florida we never really get the chance to ride the hills as of course, we have none. Not unless you count a garbage pile or two. Anyway, I had the pleasure of riding the bike in the mountains of NC during the past week and had some thoughts to share with you. Keep in...

Ok, here is the frame I made. Hello, I have to say it's not going to be pretty but it worked very well! What I did was find a piece of scrap starboard, the tan section, it was the perfect size overall and no cutting was needed. I then found the metal rod stock at Home Depot. I simply bent the...

WELL... After all that.. So I built the frame, it worked great. Filled the bags, put them on and they sat just fine without any frame! $10 dollars in parts so no biggie. The cortech bags worked just fine. Taking them to NC this summer. Ed

Used Powerlet products Hi, I have two powerpoints on the bike. One under the rear seat on the colored section of the bodywork and the other mounted right on the front fairing next to the dash. Since they are smaller and water proof they easily flush mount and work very well. Have them on both...

About that frame I mentioned. Hi, I suppose the bags would just sit fine and stay out of trouble but since I am one of those pain in the ass retentive types, I wanted them to sit straight. Got the frame done and now they ride perfect on the bike. Bascially a straight bar along the grab rails...

I got the Cortech too Hi, I got the Cortech. I already had the tailbag and for $135 they are a deal. Never going to tour much with this bike so GIVI is an overkill. Just in the middle of making a frame that will keep the bags from drifting inward and looking awkward on the bike. The frame...

A year late but this helps. For all of you looking to install hard cases, Givi does make a mount and a set of hard cases you can mount on the FZ. You need to look for the mount under XJ6, the european version. The mount is a quick release and works with the V35 hard cases. Not cheap however...

Forget clipons Hi, Forget clip on handlebars. They will end up costing you big, provided you are even able to make it work with the bike. If your interested in cornering ability your best bet is to learn and or practice better technique. Master your riding abilities first and then decide if...

WOW got a good price!! I paid $4900 and with tax, and dealer fees, $6,200.00 all up! Sell it to ya for a grand more!! ED

I agree with the clunky shifting Actually surprised that the shifting is glass smooth on this bike. Even my Harley does better! I do notice that if I rev very high it seems to smooth right out. However getting used to winding it out all the time is taking some time.
