    Ball State Student!

    Okay, I know this is a reach, but I thought I'd give it a shot. I spotted a blue NAKED FZ pulling into campus on my way to lunch today. It looked like he had an FZ8 headlight or something of the sorts and the smoked integrated taillight. With all the mods, I figured he had to be lurking...

    I think Whatever went to the Kia Optima Forum

    So... just leased a new Kia Optima and have been cruising their forums the last two days. Looks like they have a guy who compares to our buddy "Whatever". Every post from him has bad grammar and they are all skeptical and critical of all of his posts. He at least seems to actually have an...

    Bell Star vs. RS-1

    Looking for some feedback from those who have worn a Bell Star and an RS-1 (JonKerr... etc.) Found a deal on the Star below from SBTG for $350. RS-1 models are about $400. Would anyone suggest the RS-1 over the Star at that price and what are your reasons? The main reason I've heard to...

    Arai Helmet Air Flow

    I would appreciate any feedback from Arai helmet owners... I just tried out my wife's new Signet Q on the way into work this morning to see if I liked it any more than my Bell. It is definitely comfortable and light, but I noticed a TON of air flow inside the helmet... to the point of being...

    Pride in our Forum

    Here's a link to a sale of one of our own. I'm not promoting the sale, but I thought it was cool how he put this in the post: "It's got an excellent community at Yamaha FZ6R Forum Community which has tons of awesome people riding this bike who will answer questions, help with maintenance...

    Anniversary Racing Stripes

    After seeing these Anniversary stripes all over at MotoGP, I decided that my white FZ NEEDS these decals on the fairings! Anyone have any skills to make something like this for us? Could be done in other colors for other bikes. I know Yamaha has a kit for the FZ1, but I doubt they sell the...

    Triumph Sprint Review?

    Has anyone ridden a Triumph Sprint sport tourer? I'm weighing my options of putting over $1,000 into my bike to make it easier to travel with or just upgrading to something with more touring power and the luggage already included. I know the FJR is really nice, but I may be able to find a...

    GIVI Luggage

    Does anyone have a good connection with a GIVI dealer? I'm looking to get a set of the V35 bags with the GIVI mounts. The best deal I've found is on sporttour.com. I can get the side cases with rack and liner bags for $767 with free shipping. Just wondering if anyone has found a better...

    Promoting the FZ6R

    So, every time someone asks "What kind of bike do you have?" I always get this feeling of 'Geez, do I really have to try to stutter through F...Z...6...R..., because I know this schmoe has never heard of it?' Sometimes, I go ahead and just say it's a Yamaha and explain that it's a sport bike...

    Clutch connector not attached

    Hey guys. Was just messing around with my bike... Looking to see how easy it would be to roll my bars down a bit by myself. In checking the connections around the clutch, I noticed that there was an electrical looking line with a plug that was unhooked. It runs along side the electrical line to...

    Photoshop expert needed!

    I have been admiring the Ducati 848 Evo (White & Red) lately and a buddy just suggested that I paint my bike up like that. I have a plain white FZ6R already, so I was wondering if anyone would be able to photoshop the Ducati red onto the wheels and frame like they have on the 848. I'm sure...

    Ducati Diavel

    Looks like a new style developing with all of the designers. Similar lines to the Honda Crossrunner, but a lot sharper package IMO. I read some comments and most were trashing this bike, but I REALLY like it! It is lighter than our bike but has more than twice the horsepower. I guess I'd...
