    Undoing the Counter Progressive throttle pulley on the 06

    Hey Fred, or anybody else thats done this mod. I did the mod today and have not put the tank back on yet because my throttle does not want to snap closed now, it will shut with a twist of the grip but does not close all the way buy its self. Anyone else incure this or any sugestions? Thanks. bete

    is my tire shot?

    I tried to find some info I saw a while back on this but had no luck. My question is, how do you tell if these z6 tires are done? I don't like having no wear bar in the center. I have 4000miles on them now and I am leaving for a 3000mile trip in a week. Thanks bete.

    Corbin 29" front seat

    Not bar risers--but bar lowers

    Well after 2months and 4000miles on my 06 the only thing I really want to change is the bars. I,m used to a more forward ,sporty stance. So with a tip from our own Evil Hinchman. I orderd a set of clip on style bars from a gent in Kentucky. He had not yet sold any to a 06 owner, and...
