Rabbit's out of the business.. outside of doing an HID, you can add aftermarket spot lights, just have to make sure they're legal in your state for on-road use and that you don't over-wattage them for the bike electrical system. Stick with LED and power shouldn't be a problem, but will come at...

I'm not on an 8, been on an FZ6R for over five years... and I've always shifted around 6-9krpms (redline is around 11) and kept my rpms up in the 5-7k while riding, now with over 60K miles on the bike and she runs just like new... I did do a demo ride on the 8 and about the same... it's a sport...

Awesome work! Thanks

Ran into a guy at the Yamaha demo days with an FZ09, think his name was Rich... had nothing but good words about your hid job and business in general...

Yep, threads are back! missing the "thanks" "like" "dislike" buttons for posts... is that just an option, or another add-on?

bikes/parts for sale... some of the threads show: Invalid query: Table 'fz8forum.vb_blog' doesn't exist53 database still rebuilding??? actually, seeing a lot of them... http://www.779cc.org/forum/the-bar/3564-what-do-you-do-afford-your-fz8.html is one from the bar

wow, so you couldn't even do a show bike with one.... looks like they covered every aspect in that one law... as I said, great info... no need to delete the thread.

reminder I'll let this one stand as a "what if" thread, general knowledge always welcomed... but will remind everyone of the rules of this forum: Disallowed specific topics We're all about freedom of speech, however there are some topics that don't belong here, such as: Running from the cops...

oh man, sorry to hear... hope you're ok...

Yeah... save speed for a track day, on the street too many obstacles.... just enjoy the ride. Nothing wrong with a vstar, nice bikes.

Nice color scheme! Looks sharp

exactly... so many people misread the manual and baby it... just ride it, but if you're a new rider and not familiar with I4... be careful... that power band hits fast... even on my wimpy FZ6R, above 7K she screams... and can get you into trouble fast coming out of a corner

straight from the owners manual "Avoid prolonged operation" over xxx rpm until xxx miles... it never says you can't run it to redline from the lot, just don't run full throttle highway speeds... so just ride it!
