FZ6If you’re looking for one bike to perform a multitude of missions, look no further.
Take it from Cycle World* Magazine - “For a more advanced rider looking for a bike to do it all, there is no other choice.”
Does anyone know the coding on the wiring for the headlights? I am doing the naked conversion to the falcon headlight and need to know which color goes to the white and which goes to the black lines coming from the Falcon.
I was going to say, Serraph...haven't I seen that bike somewhere before? Very, very nice! The only thing I'd change, IMO, would be the bellypan. Not that it matters, but ask wavex about my feelings on the Powerbronze bellypan.
Oh, and MrPostman...you've done something I've never seen anyone else do on a naked. Installing the flushies in the small indention in the frame left behind when the fairing is removed? BRILLIANT! That looks badass! I'm surprised a certain French guy from California didn't think of that first. I mean, he's only gone naked 3 TIMES. LOL...J/K wavex!
I'm liking MrPostman's signals too. Could we get a pic from the front? I'm wondering how visible they are. I must say, all these nakeds running around is very tempting. When cold weather returns I will probably be joining you.
When I pulled off the front fairing, the indention left over on the frame looked to be a perfect fit for a flushie. It turned out pretty easy. When I rewired the front harness everything kinda wrapped up nicely as the flushie wires sneaked through the holes in the frame.
I'll take a pic from the front sometime this week. maybe an animated gif so that you can see the blinkers in action.
There wasn't much meat on the front tire either! Both tires have been replaced (last weekend) by some spankin new Power Pilots...
Had no choice but to go naked after crashing the bike, seemed like the logical step. I am naked now, just waiting on some fork mounted signal brackets and then going to get some new signals, probably led's. For those who plan to go naked, be prepared for a weekend of work. With a wife and two kids (like me), be prepared for a few weekends, where you get an hour or two of free time! LOL I am just about done and will post some pics soon, I really like the look of it so far.

Wait.... didn't you sell the Powerbronze belly pan to me in the first place?
If the TCP wasn't 600 bucks, I'd probably get it. That's more than what my exhaust cost.
