harley night rod. I sat on one at a dealership...amazing.

That's kinda like the Harley V-Rod. My dad had a V-rod and loved it. The thing was quick too for a Harley. He had 130rwhp.

Its to muffle all that horsepower.

Bikes are fun as shit.. but it's really damn unsafe. Most guys I see can't deal with the temptation to do the speed limit, and end up doing 0-100 damn near everywhere. My roommate smoked 2 deer on his R6. He didn't have gloves and his hands are the most fucked up things in the world right now. Every time I see guys riding without gear now, I just cringe thinking about what they would look like in the hospital if they crashed.

Thats why I wear helmet, gloves, riding boots and an armored jacket for EVERY ride. I have armored pants I use on the longer rides.

what is that anyways?

spike_africa 10-09-2008 06:53 AM

Its the Yamaha Warrior. Its there muscle bike below the Vmax powerhouse. 1670cc big vtwin makes alot of power and is much faster then my 1100cc custom Vstar. I'm just over Harleys as now that I have ridden my friends bike and then mine I just dont see why people jerk of to HD.

Badfish 10-09-2008 01:59 PM

I'm not a big fan of harleys either. if anything Victory is where it's at when it comes to muscle. but that Night Rod is down right gorgeous.

spike_africa 10-09-2008 08:04 PM

Victory and muscle come on.

White04GT 10-10-2008 05:56 AM

My dad had a Yamaha Midnight Star and road on a Harley. The next day he went to the Harley dealership and bought a new Harley Davidson Road king and sold his Yamaha. He said the suspension on the Harley is just so much nicer rides alot smoother and was alot lighter than his big ass Yamaha.

spike_africa 10-10-2008 07:47 AM

Both Harleys I have driven were much worse riding then my Yamaha. HD use old school springs on the back, the Yamaha uses a coilover setup. But to each his own I think HD while some are cool are very over priced for what you get.

How is a crotch rocket different than what you have?
It's really not.....I had an FZ6 and I took it to the track and everything and yes the R6's and GSXR's are faster, but not by very much. All I had done to the bike was a Two Brothers exhaust, power commander and steering stabilizer and I could hold with them through the curvies. I HIGHLY recommend getting the Two Brothers exhaust or getting the IXILL(sp?). The Scorpion sounds ok but looks weird on the Fazer. You'll love the bike dude I can promise you that...just watch the pegs if you ever go through the curves because they will hit the ground an it'll swipe your feet off (personal experience ).

Where did you get a steering stabilizer for the FZ? Who makes it?

Hmmmmmm.....So theyre about the same as a Harley, huh? LOL No offense, but I never have quite understood the whole "Harley thing".

I have had a couple bikes. First one being a Kawi GPz550, then a pristine Nighthawk 650 that was massaged a bit from the previous owner. I always wore a helmet, or 95% of the time, and really tried to ride responsibly...but it was just too hard to resist wringing it out. I always wanted a Ninja 750 or ZX11, and luckily never got one. The Nighthawk could have done me in quite easily. Great rider? No, but I would consider myself a competent rider, and my riding skills never matched my stupidity factor. I soon after found out I was going to be a father, and the bike went. Blessing in disguise. I still love the looks of them, but I am content without one.

At any rate, nice lookin bike! Just ride it like your invisible, and hope thats enough.

SLP02GT 01-20-2009 04:45 PM

since this thread was brought back from the dead I'll play....Mines faster:poke:[IMG]http://img19.picoodle.com/img/img19/...im_80dd82c.png[/IMG]
but seriously FZ6's are real nice bikes, there a little more comfy than a full supersport and performance wise are strong

spike_africa 01-21-2009 06:31 AM

Mine is not nearly as fast as every one else on here. 02 Yamaha V Star 1100 with some mods. Looking for a nitrous kit for it too. on a 35shot would be looking for 100-110rwhp once I get cams. Doesn't sound to crazy compared to you guys but it pulls pretty nice for a muscle cruiser.

I had a 2004 FZ6 which was my first bike and I loved it. Unfortunately it got smashed by a drunk driver so I replaced it with a 2008 R6.

Yammies FTW!!

2008 FZ6








W00t!

Mine will be faster when I get it. :D

GSX Hayabusa 1300R
I'm taking off the Govenern and maybe putting a turbo on it or twin. :D

I do want the Ducati 1098R, but I want a two seater and I'm really tall.

dude sick! tt busas are the illest.

ducati 1098R pfft. thats chump change..$40,000 aint shit.

08mustang_gt 01-29-2009 08:06 PM

Yea, but as a first bike. Just because it's fast doesn't mean you can just jump on it and lay it down. I've ridden a single-turbo R1 and almost killed myself, because I was dumb enough to get on the worst interstate EVER and gas it and hit a little pothole and it slipped out from underneath me just enough for me to piss my pants.

You can do whatever in a car all day long and still know that there's five inches of steel surrounding you, but jump on a bike and it's totally different. I don't want to see you splattered on a road man....I've lost many of friends to street bikes.
