I have 2 sets of seats, like new condition. The top sellerie was used for 10 km and I didn't like it. The stock has about 1000km on it and looks great. Both sets for $400 CAD/ $300 USD

Im thinking of touring across Canada in July. I may be doing a bit of gravel roads (probably less than 1 percent). Will a belly pan / rad guard help much? What tires should I get? Is there anything I can do with the suspension? I know the FZ8 is no ADV bike but hey it's what I have and I love my...

My long trip through northern ontario was hard on the engine and exhaust. Gunk everywhere. Rode through a million tar patches where the entire sections of road has loose tar and at one point rode through freshly oiled tar so I had a hard time cleaning that up. Would the belly pan have protected...

Has anyone seen an under-engine exhaust of the fz8 like they have on the fz09 or rc8? I just love the look and wonder if it can even be done on our bikes. Maybe the bike is too low or something is in the way. I would definitely spend some coin on one if it existed. Ive yet to bother with an...

Its last minute but if any toronto peeps want in text or call 905-391-1305. Im bored and my friends all have kids and cry about the cold!!! Just going for couple hours...

I don't know much about suspensions, and this is just a curiosity. If I wanted to outfit my suspension for "ADV" riding could the springs and shocks be changed out for this? Where would I get them? How much should I expect to pay? I'm not expecting off road capabilities, but something for wash...

Anyone have a tail tidy with the yamaha rack? Pictures? Also, has anyone made a tail tidy with the factory lights?

Is there a map to save fuel? I dont care to loose power. How do these map things work anyways? Do you use a laptop with a special plug? Is it difficult to do?

Anyone here work as a mechanic/parts guy for Yamaha? I have a very little annoyance: when I installed my rear carrier it came with 4x rubber dampers/grommets for the top case to sit on. One of them fell out and my dealer says he couldn't find a part number to order me a new one. It's probably a...

Does anyone have pics with the rear carrier + tail tidy? I want to know what it looks like before I buy a tail tidy. I find my rear end looks just stupid right now with all the shit sticking out.

Check this out: http://i47.tinypic.com/2vnh1sl.jpg I think he was serious when he did this.

I have 2 Top Sellerie seat sets with gel option. Both sets have red stitching, rider and passenger seats. One is long, other is short/standard (not sure). I put about 400kms on each seat. They are not for me. I guess I'm too tall. My ass bottoms out on the plastic pan. I guess it's because of...

Are you guys winterized already? I'm hoping for better weather for just a bit longer.

Just started up the fz8 (6000kms) and she died about half a second in. Been trying to start her ever since. Batter 12.9V, seems to be cranking fine, got gas sloshing around. Can smell gas too. I tried for about 5 minutes holding the starter down 10 seconds at a time. She seemed to want to start...

I'm installing a relay for a secondary fuse block for heated gear and cell charger under the seat on the FZ8. Since I fried my multimeter last week I'll ask you guys for help. The rear taillight bulb has 3 wires. yellow, blue and black. Black I think is ground. Which do I tap into for ignition...

I'm not looking for an offroad tire. However does anyone have a recommendation for a mainly highway touring tire that could also handle cold rain and occasional gravel roads?

Something is squeaking when the rear end flexes up and down. What should I look for? How do I fix it? And no it's not my hips or knees or feet... I'm sure its somewhere on the bike's rear end.

Hey guys, Don't mean to be a pain in the butt, but I'm positive I didn't receive the "longer" seat I ordered. For those with ANY top sellerie seat, could you please measure seat length from tank to backrest? Also tell me if you have the short, regular or long seat? I emailed them saying I'd...

Anyone else ever get this? I find if I come to a dead stop in one of my higher gears I can't downshift unless I engage the clutch and clunk it down. Don't like it. 2013 4000kms Needs more breaking in? Normal? Not normal?

I ordered the long seat regular height. Doesnt feel long at all and find it too snug. Can those with top sellerie seats take the same measurements that i have posted in the following pics? Just tell me if you ordered short regular long. Thanks in advance. (The reason I want to know this is to...
