Whats a PCV Hi Ramrod, please tell me what a PCVt auto tune is and what does it do to the fz8? I have a 2012 fz8 with a few mods, nothing performance though. I changed out my stock levers to Pazzo's, Renthal gold bars, tail tidy, sliders, radiator guard. Was thinking about a slip on silencer...

Thanks Hoover Thanks guys for feedback on my idle speed, I'll leave it alone.

What is your tach reading at idle in neutral? My new bike is reving around 1100 and higher. Saw something in the owners manual about idle speed being 1100-1150. Seems high, more so when tapping down to first gear and hearing that klunk sound!! Any feedback on that and if anyone has lowered their...

Oil change Oh yah, changing oil and filter is very simple, just wish I waited for the second oil change before I switched to Amsoil.

Progressive here in Honolulu Brand new 2012 Fz8 I am paying just over $700 a year full coverage. Also went with a deal they offered for another $250 for two years, the bike is 100% covered for any total loss. Was told the bike could be stolen or totaled and if its under two years they would...

Hello, was wondering if any of you changed out your stock bars and tried to salvage the bar end insert. It seems to be glued tight in the bar and have been trying to free them to install in new Renthals I put on bike. I will check into any aftermarket inserts, any help would be awsome!!

Aloha, I just bought a 2012 fz8 for $9100 out the door here in Hawaii. Don't know if thats a good or not so good deal!

Thanks Hoover Darn, I put the good amsoil in the bike yesterday, ready to head to work on it now. I sorta jumped the gun and did the first oil change before I posted anything on this site. Well I guess I just waisted the money on the amsoil, since I will change the oil again soon.

Oil filter I went to a dealer looking for a alternative to the stock oem filter for a 09FZ6. Was told I could save a bit of cash and buy the HIFLOW HF204, just used it on my new FZ8. Don't really know if a few dollars savings over the oem filter is really worth any problems down the road with...

Hi anybody out there with sound advice if its really needed for the bike to go back to the dealer for 600 mile oil change. I have been riding and maintaining motorcycles for a long time and want to do the oil change on my new FZ8. The sales person told me that there was a rev limiter on the...

Aloha Glockman Hi, was just wondering why you picked that slipon for your fz8, I have a new 2012 fz8 comming next week and was trying to decide what pipe to go with. Also, I own three Glocks!!

Thanks lothodon, I thank you all for any advise on my new purchase of the fz8, put a down payment yesterday and bike should be here in couple weeks. I wanted to change a few things on the bike both for function and looks, since the fz8 has no stock center stand I already got a rear rolling...

Thanks hypo I was just checking them out!! Good choice, I am ordering it the morning. Any help on good aftermarket levers, was looking at the Pazzo's, heard the China levers were a little cheapy looking, any advice?

Hello fellow fz8 owners,, I was hoping to get some advice on where to order a nice, good quality rear fender replacement. I know there are all types made and wanted to see from you which one is used most. Thanks
