Yes, they're still available. E-mail me: ryannesbitt (at) hotmail.com

I only weigh 180 so I've never found the suspension to be soft front or rear. It's more about the steering angle for me, it feels as though the front tire is starting to push if I go hard into a turn. It just feels a bit chopper-like in its handling. It may be more noticeable to me after owning...

Still available

Looks great! I've never felt the shock was holding me back too much in the twisties but the raked-out stock forks sure do. I hope to do this in mod in the future.

It doesn't look too bad, what else is wrong with it? I put an ad up for one of those on the local racing site (ARL) and thought I had scored a sweet deal for $20 from a guy right here in Dartmouth until he sent me the picture...it was an R6 S shock...damn it

Well, let me know if you do decide to sell/trade. Can't wait to see some more pics as the project progresses.

They look like Buell Ulysses guards to me. I've thought about installing them myself, my last bike was a Ulysses and the combination of hand guards and heated grips made for much more comfortable cold weather riding that's for sure. Not sure if I like the look on the FZ...I'd throw them on for...

I'm actually in Dartmouth too I just say Halifax most of the time for those not from the area... The FZ's I've seen with R1 forks are a big improvement, looking forward to seeing the finished product. What are you doing with your second set of forks by the way? Any chance you want to sell them...

Hey Bluenoser...I assume you're a Nova Scotian by the screen name...do you still live here now? If so we should hook up for a ride sometime, I'm in Halifax. I've got the same exact bike (minus all the cool mods you're doing now), had it for 2 months now and really like it. I'd love to throw an...

I have not sold these yet so PM me if you are interested.

Thanks for the tips guys. Looks like I have a little project to do before my trip to Boston next month.

Has anyone added foam to the front portion of the stock seat to change the seating position slightly? I'm a new Gen I owner and the more time I spend on the bike the less I like the seating position. The seat is quite comfortable other then the fact it pushes your jewels into the tank:ugh...

Droopy: A quick calculation on Canada Post's website tells me it'll cost roughly $50-$100 to ship to you. I won't know exactly until I get them boxed and weighed but that should give you a ball park. PM me if you're still interested and I'll give you the exact cost in the next day or so. Thanks

Yes, I'll ship to the states. Send me your ZIP code if you're interested and I'll get a quote for you.

Set of Gen I lower fairings for sale with all required mounting hardware. They came with the bike I recently bought but I prefer it without them. They're painted to match Yamaha silver but bike was obviously dropped on the left side and some point and there are some fairly deep scratches that...
