Got my bluetooth setup and trex spools today, but didn't get a chance to play with either yet. Going for a nice ride tomorrow after today's hectic pace.
What did you do to your bike today?

What kind of bluetooth setup did you get? Lets see some pics of those spools!
I'll get some pics when I get them on the bike. Same as most here, T-rex spool adapters (mount on the swingarms). The bluetooth I got is pretty cheap and not installed in my helmet yet either (both came today during our picnic). Here are links to both.

Nice work. Just my opinion, don't put any more red on. Personally, it's a bit too far for my taste. You love it and that's cool. I've just seen a few bikes go too far with the accent colors. Like I said, just my opinion, take it or leave it.
You replaced your Yamaha belly tickers, right? How hard were they to get off, tried the other day (albeit without heat) and it was a beeotch! I stopped after scraping at it for a little while. I have red metallic ones to replace the grey ones.

Went to pick up the silver gopro,and a riding jacket...then needed some extra oxygen after I was told 200.00 for a 600 mile OIL CHANGE...then I tried to walk past this beast today...
Should've done it yourself. 1st service is oil change, check/tighten chain, check other fluids. Nothing hard to do at home. Cost you the price of the oil and filter.
It was a bit(h for sure. But I did use heat. A little and a thumbnail and it did come up. It left a bunch of glue on the pain so I just used Goof Off to get rid of it.
Okay, not worried about residue (I have Goo Gone o WD40), but had a hell of a time. All the other stickers on the bike were easy in comparison for sure. I'll leave it outside after my ride. That will heat it for sure. Thanks...

I know what u mean I'm with you it's already at the point where more will tip it over to be too much... Although I do have one more item planned for it lol

Those would be interesting to do a dual motovlog with. Hmm thanks Scott! Do let us know how well it works once you get the opportunity to test it!
Today I installed some crappy after market mirrors w/ LED turn signals.
A) The LEDs where kinda dim, as it had dark smoke tint on the plastic over LEDs
B) They did fit, but not really work w the FZ6R - think they are more for the SS models.
So they got uninstalled and back to stock rabbit ears for now.
After that I installed my GiPro gear shift indicator since it is raining today.

Got tired of stock levers look but i don't mind the feel of them, so i took them down, light sand, and spray enamel 4 coats over the course of 8 hours while hanging inside a shoe box to minimize floating dust, turned out perfectly glossy black and matches my white bike just fine, best part, saved at least 70 bucks on new levers because i only wanted new colors.
Put brighter LEDs in there instead. I could help you out with that.

That sucks man... hopefully you can either get them returned or add brighter LED's...

I do like the feeling of the stock levers as well... I've been wanting to do the same thing as well. Do Let us know how the paint lasts... Another DIY mod that could possibly happen for me. I've been wanting to get levers of a different color.
Nah bought them off ebay months ago don't even know from where, they worth like $20 so not worth the time.
I'm just going to do my own custom LED's for turn signals and some added underglow for night visibility.
