    (More) Aftermarket Parts (from Wis.)

    Both the levers and tail light are spoken for and or sold already. since the only items left are mirrors and smog plates i'm going to call this thread closed. thanks to everyone for the sales, it made the trade in of my fz8 a LOT less painful and it's great to know fellow forum members got...

    My Custom made mods

    an easy tint too as i don't think you can get low enough to actually look through the screen is to just paint the backside. i flat blacked the back of the yamaha fly screen and i really liked it. it made the speedo easier to read in the daylight as there was no glare.

    as far as i know there are no direct plug tail lights for the fz8. this one is bare wires. i ran led turns and never used the integrated turns but they will flash fast. i don't get why anyone adds the resistor as i prefer the faster flash of leds. i don't think the mirrors would work on the...

    No problem, I just had my baby boy so I've not been online anyway! But on topic, the mirrors offer nearly identical visibility as the stock mirrors but are (imo) far less ugly. You still need to fold your elbows in to see anything behind you, just like the stock mirrors. (At least I did.)

    Lorenzo "Superman"

    I saw a slightly different race. Rossi was only back because Lorenzo wasn't 100%. Lorenzo, still absolutely amazing, no doubt. Crutchlow could have had a second at best if he didn't nearly plow into Marquez on the last lap. Shouldn't have been that far back but his start blew. As much as I...

    interesting find today. i just traded in my fz8 and before hand restored it to stock. i of course couldn't unmod my air box, but i did reinstall the ais hoses and valve. not sure if they are related but with the bike ran FAR BETTER with the stock exhaust and the airbox mod than it ever did...

    Not a motodyanmics but install is easy if your not afraid to cut wires. No strobe effects but easy install. Led turns didnt survive the uninstall procrss as the boots got brittle and cracked.

    Clubman handlebar and stock mirrors

    don't forget all the factory parts have locator pins and associated holes on the stock bars. VERY little wire length if you get too far from original position you'll have issues. to fit factory components on aftermarket bars you either have to grind off the locator pins or drill holes in the...

    thinking about selling.

    I can tell you that with the latest incentives you can get a brand new 2013 for around $6500 at a dealership if you know how to deal. Helps understand the low trade in offer. I pulled out $5300 for a trade as Yamaha is offering trade incentives right now too. Remember, anything you get for a...
