[quote=wavex;3324830]Let's face it, the FZ6 crowd on SBN is not very adventurous when it comes to mods and colors... here is what I found on various foreign forums:
Please add your finds!
Wavex,
I think my mods will qualify as adventurous...

I introduced cheap mod for front fork and throttle control in FZ6 Forum but, those are so nerdy. Please check if you like.
Incidentally, I asked to paint only visor.
Hi Kuma! I am glad to see you made it here! Thank you very much I was hoping you were on a FZ6 Japanese forum, so you could post more pictures, but no problem!
I can`t wait to see the paintjob you will do... please share when it`s done!
About your front fork and throttle mods, you had posted that on another forum, and so it would probably be better if you post again in the MOD section here (create a new thread to explain what you did).
It's fun to think that all the way on the other side of the planet, we have japanese friends riding the bike we all love!
One day I want to visit Japan... I`ll ask you for the best things to see!
Some cool stuff. Including a nice naked headlight screens and a light setup.
I agree their stuff does look cool.
I bought a radiator cover Dettaglio Prodotto
from CustomSprint CustomSpirit a Barracuda reseller. The Barracuda web site doesn't say what years their products fit and their radiator cover doesn't fit my 2007 FZ6N.
I took this up with CustomSprint and their response was
"I was checking all radiator cover and I confirm you that your product is correct. Measure is 21.0 cm high and 39.5 cm wide. From manufacturer check that the product is correct, I think you will try to install with some modification on your motorbike. We are selling this product and it is perfect with other customers."
My radiator is only 37.5cm wide and they only believed me after I sent them a photo with a measuring tape across it. I'm now going to get a refund after I pay for return postage. I wouldn't recommend them unless you are prepared for a headache.
CustomSprint also tried to charge me more for postage after I'd paid for the order.
