New Mods...

I've made some cool mods on my bike:

2 bros. exhaust, pc III with custom map, stebel airhorn, integrated tail light blinker, bar end mirrors, .....and not shown- I took off all the stickers and painted those 2 pieces of plastic under the seat flat black.

I had a 1700cc Yamaha warrior, but traded in because I'm back in school and wanted a commuter bike. I miss the torque. When I ride solo, its crazy fast, but, I find that it is only fast under constant acceleration. Ex: if I'm going 60mph and I down shift 2 gears, it feels sluggish to slingshot me away. On my warrior, it snapped my neck! I guess I'd get something similar with the FZ1 but, I didn't want my wife to suffer with a lack of comfort (higher pass. foot pegs, smaller seat), and, I love the undertail exhaust.

Right now I'm trying to find a top case rack that will work with the 2 bros. exhaust. Any suggestions?

Bar End Mirrors....

I got the mirrors from Cycle Gear. I had them on my Yamaha Warrior and love the difference. Total rear view vision.

The chrome thing is the new horn.... I didn't know that it came in black.
I can't remember where I got the mirror block off plates, I think I just googled it.

Gregg's Customs has the mirror hole covers for the 07 FZ6. I did the R & D work for him and they fit perfectly. His match the indent in the plastic perfectly.
