    Which Slip On for R6 Header?

    I can't seem to find any information on this, maybe because it's obvious? I have an 01 R6 header and PCV. Does this mean I need to get an R6 slip on? and if so does it have to be for that year?

    Modding the stock exhaust.

    Hello, I was looking to mod the stock exhaust like Marthy's exhaust mod. I am a boilermaker by trade so the welding and fabbing will be easy. My questions are what size does the collector have to go down to at the end? Will i need a reducer to allow for slip ons? Thanks for your help!

    Exhaust mod

    I'm looking into an exhaust mod for my fz6r. I really like the look and sound of either the jardine-GP1 slip on and the SC project slip on. Is it possible to use the stock fz6r headers and either weld or clamp the tip on with an adapter? Or do you definitely need r6 headers?

    LED headlight mod

    Here's my latest FZ6R mod, LED headlight bulb. Not quite a mod but the light gain is very good. Got the idea from the other house. Kit is very simple and is a straight on swap with the OEM light bulb. The kit is not listed under FZ6R but FZ09 and good for 3000 lumens on high beam, very bright...

    Which way to mod exhaust?

    My brother has been wanting to start riding, so this past week we picked up a nice 2009 FZ6R. He's not really into performance, he just wants to ride out on the open road!

    2nd Front light???

    Hello, i bought my 6R about a month a go. When I first saw the bike in pics and youtube i though there were 2 lights. The main front light and a smaller light on top. I was wondering if anyone has though about putting a bulb in there or maybe a small strobe light. Any thoughts about this?

    Bobski's windscreen comparisons

    I've found the most useful windscreen information has been from a rider who has personally tried several and can provide direct comparisons. I've now used the original screen, the Yamaha Double Bubble, and Puig Touring so here are my summary thoughts. Hope this is helpful for riders seeking...
