    Got a Center Stand & Engine Guards?

    Then you don't need either a rear wheel or front wheel stand. For the rear, it is already off the ground with the center stand.

    Leo Vince LV One Exhaust

    First a short story why picked this exhaust. After a looking at all the different options for slip on exhausts I originally narrowed down to Arrow, 2 Bros, and Yosh. But the more I looked at them the more I found faults with them. Now I'm not saying these are bad exhausts just for one reason or...

    Speed Bleeders Size?

    Can anyone confirm the brake caliper bleed screw size for the front and rear. I believe they are both M8 x 1.25 but I wanted to check with the masses before making a purchase. Has anyone put Speed Bleeders on their FZ8? I have used them on past bikes and they were great.
