    What do you plan to own next?

    I love the FZ8, perfect for me. Not into the fz-09 or 07. If they bring these to the states it would be one of these... XJR1300 CB1300 cb1300f If not I'd probably have to go into debt and get a BMW or scale down and get this... cb500f

    Oil Filters

    I'm usually a mostly OEM guy, but based on this info you've changed my mind on my next oil filter.

    Bike turns on but no signals, brake light and horn

    Still believe this is could be your problem and the battery may not be bad, but the charger isn't smart enough to charge an AGM battery that's been completely drained.

    My first oil and filter change on my new FZ 2013

    Did my 2013 at 720 (couldn't not drive it waiting for the dealer who was 2+ weeks out), used Yamalube Kit off Amazon. I still let the dealer do the first check though. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    Helmet Reviews: Post your "LID" and how you like it.

    :agree: I agree, also have the Rx-Q in Blue (looks good with the 2013 FZ8 color scheme). Got mine as an open box (never used) at the store so I didn't have to pay full price. I keep forgetting to put my ear plugs on with this helmet because it is so quiet. After getting a large size that was...

    What did you do to your bike today?

    After doing the first break-in maintenance on the FZ8 last night, I got her something for the trouble. Now I can watch other people's motorcycle videos while I ride ;) I keed. Really, either for GPS or so I can pull over and call back either my boss or my wife (also the boss) if I get a call...

    What fairing kits can I put on the fz8 to make it look more sporty?

    Try some radiator guards. Someone put fz1 guards on and it looked pretty good. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    New-ish West Michigan FZ8

    Congrats! Love my 2013. Not another bike like it on the road around here. Like your additions to it so far. Planning on keeping mine for a long time too. My wife even picked it over the 09 and 07 based solely on looks, all standing together in a row before I told her which one I had my eye...

    Parts diagrams

    I could be wrong, but I believe the C stands for California version which both show all those parts especially for California. Not sure what the G stands for.

    Yamaha Most Reliable Motorcycle Brand

    Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere being a couple of months old, but I didn't see upon searching. I was discussing with my brother, who is starting to get into motorcycling, and said while he liked my bike design more than Honda's, he may go the Honda route just because he thought...

    Added a Mirror Shield today. Cools down the face during these 100 degree temps we've had recently. Daughter wanted to try it out...

    Dropped my bike. :(

    Man I'm sorry. Kids are out of school around here and they definitely get bored. Glad you are okay. Good advice on those little trips through the neighborhood when you think you can finally relax a bit. One of the hardest things for me to do is stay focused on road conditions all the time...
