    Question Rear sprocket suggestions (+2 or +3)?

    Did the -1 / +2 years ago, perfect setup. Stays around 5k rpm at 60mph and still flys. Drop a gear and disappear.

    2013 FZ8 First Bike. Any tips?

    my advice will suck too as i'm 6'2" and 210lbs....but i had installed a late r1 shock with satan666's adapter... makes it perfect for me to sit on - i'm sure they make a lowering kit...you just dont see many guys looking for one for our machines. as for MPGs.....dont know - i'm way too throttle...

    Suspension

    I went the route of the satan666 adaptor and used r1 shock also - makes a HUGE difference. however, ive noticed that when i finally got new tires thats when the bike began to shine. try the FZ1 shock, i know 14interceptor on here is trying to sell one right now. give him a shout. probably cut...

    Chain question/replacement

    Chain question/replacement

    i did the 520 conversion - D.I.D chain, front sprocket -1 (15tooth straight from yamaha) the rear i did the +2 to make it a 48tooth. got that from Driven - steel sprocket. Love the setup and love the bike and how it accelerates now.

    TurboJoe tune & Exhaust arrives today

    So after taking the advice of 97Audia4, the bike has become a beast. Even though i still had my favorite passenger ;) the bike definitely unleashed some fury. Takeoff does take some extra gas but let me say, once it gets going that thing is a rocket. You can twist the throttle and BAM you're...

    TurboJoe tune & Exhaust arrives today

    As a follow up! The exhaust is AWESOME. Personally, i like it loud. Some buyers are concerned with it but i like it just the way it is. It will wake the neighbors for sure. The flash is not too bad. Reason saying is that the first ride i had the fiance was on the back enjoying the new...
