What did you do to your bike today?

Purchased some nice amber LEDs to mount to the bike to add some extra visibility from the front and will be getting some red ones for the back of the bike to mount on the stalks of the turn signals.

I did the front scoops not too long ago. It's looks awesome and the visibility looks good on the 6R as well. I got complimented by a cop about it just the other night when I was filling up my bike! Said I was smart about it lol! Def a great investment!

Went and visited some friends tonight, got in a little night-riding. The air felt really nice... and another friend of mine drew me wearing my batman cowl while riding my bike... I loved it so much I did a rough draw and color of it in my own style.
The first one is my friends and the next one is my interpretation lol

Nothing yet, about to take the Yamaha logo off the belly and put custom metallic red ones. Already took the FZ6R logos off. Also ordered T-rex spool adapters/spools and bluetooth for my helmet. Just a cheap bluetooth setup for $40 or so. That way I can listen to some tunes (in one ear) and use my Galaxy S4 for phone calls via bluetooth.

Today, I rode over 100 miles. Up through the canyon to Park City (Utah), back down through another canyon, stopped at an amazing diner, and then to a park and back home. Couldn't have asked for better weather, and now that I'm home, I have the biggest $h!t-eating grin on my face, and can't wait to do it all over again tomorrow!

I installed my new Pit Bull spools on the bike. I had to clean all the chain lube off the rear swing arm and clean out the threads, made sure I used some god blue thread locker as well.

Let sit for a while and then tried the out. Seeing as my bike has an interesting exhaust I had to make sure that I got low profile spools so it wouldn't nail the exhaust when I take a big bump or bring it up on the back wheel. That issue will go away with the new exhaust though.

I will for sure, took the fairings off to work on the stickers, but those yamaha decals are a beeotch! They're individual letters and really on good. Gonna have to heat them up to get them off.

Please let us know how it went with taken the YAMAHA logo off. That's the only thing I haven't taken off on my bike. I really like the clean look with no logos.

I tried last night and without heat it's nearly impossible. Had no problems whatsoever taking the FZ6R logo off or tank and windshield stickers. Didn't wanna run the hairdryer at 1am. Don't think it would have made anyone, but me happy. LOL! I'm putting red metallic yamaha logos in their place, but no other graphics for now.

Since I rode the CBR250R yesterday, I rode Ela to the farmer's market this morning. She is a much smoother bike than my CBR. Just reinforces that I made the right choice on the FZ6R.

Scott, thank you for the updated on taken off the logo. Maybe I'll keep that on for now.
