I just had a thread on your favorite overpants. I thank everyone for their posts. Our members opinions help us all with a fast track to finding what we really want. Now with my new Scorpion Deuce overpants Although I like my Shift Hybrid X $25 gloves they are the next weakest point to be...
I need some better protective pants. I've got Kevlar jeans but they definitely don't seem like adequate protection. I was thinking leather but it seems most people think they're not comfortable, too hot or look funny when walking around. Overpants seem to be popular and I can see they'd be more...
I've seen where lots of guys had to use a screwdriver to stab and turn their oil filter to get it off. Use this filter end cap from Harbor Freight instead. The smallest one fits great and removes the oil filter with the least trouble.

I've had these rectangular wide angle mirrors attached to my Fz6r for a few months now and love them. I got them for $1.99 each at the Pep Boys. Mount them in the bottom outside corner of the stock mirror with the wide side out. They definitely increase visibility and the safety of the bike. Of...
Many of you have installed R6 exhausts on your FZ6R. Now that you have are you glad you did? Was the power difference worth the expense/trouble you went through? Did you have to add a power commander or juice box to compensate for the leaner running? Is it now louder than you'd like? From what I...
Many have jumped to the R6 exhaust ship. I'm questioning if it's really worth it. Are the tubing dimensions appreciably bigger on the R6 pipes? Lots of guys have taken the headers we already have and made exhaust mods whether it's just punching holes in the muffler or cutting the cat off and...
As soon as I receive this windshield, install and test drive it I'll write a review. We've been waiting for a touring screen and this one is the first I know of that's available. :)
I sold my Harbor freight swing arm stand because it was tricky at best to get the bike up and worse coming down. I would of needed another stand in conjunction with the rear to raise the front. By far the best solution I came up with to solve the lifting of the FJ6R is the Harbor Freight...
I found this tip on how to apply wheel striping tape evenly on motorcycle wheels. Make Your Own Wheel Stripe Applicator : Honda CBR 600RR Sportbike Forum : 600RR.Net It looks like an accurate simple way to apply tape.
I'm trying some new brighter bulbs for the FZ6R. I can see the head lamp bulb connector. What is the procedure to remove the old bulb and reinstall a new one? It sounds simple but when you try it there seems to be more to it. Once I am able to replace the bulb I'll post with my findings on...
I have been trying to find reviews on brighter LED replacement bulbs to improve the safety on our bike. Which ones are an improvement over stock and where did you get them?

I believe safety is the most important mod we can do. Who has installed bright head light bulbs, led tail or turn signals? How did you rate the improvement and where can you get it?

I received my OES no cut frame sliders and printed out the installation procedure. One of the first things I noticed in the instructions that (you) have to print from their web site doesn't tell you which one is left or right. I figured out that the long shouldered one is the left. The...
