    What causes this?

    My thoughts exactly and we are not riding hard. We have 2 Fz6r's, both have about the same mileage (around 5000) on them, purchased both used, one from a dealer and one from the original owner, both seem to be very well taken care of, mine might have been dropped at some point cause it has a...

    What causes this?

    Yeah, that might be a good idea, usually we have one in each vehicle, so will hunt for a different one tomorrow and if that doesn't work, will go purchase another. I just don't understand the tire wear, even our other bike, with the exact same tire is looking like it's going to do this as...

    Looking for your damaged seat...

    Interested in obtaining a fz6r seat, front and back... only really need the plastic, would be nice if it had the foam (doesn't have to be in one piece), but the outer cover isn't necessary. Let me know if you have something I can work with. BTW... Greetings from VA, after having 5 kids and...
