darinja Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 After waiting for so long to buy another motorcycle, I finally bought my new 2017 FZ07 w/ ABS! Has everything I wanted from a bike and more! 8,035 miles when I bought it. I've ridden a ZX6R, R1, and Harley, but since moving to California almost 3 years ago I had nowhere to put one. I have a couple things I want to change that I will talk about in the other sections, but for now I'm thinking: 1 - taking off stickers on gas tank 2 - Need to figure out how to change the throttle cable position so I can get the stock mirrors on it. Living in California I need all the vision I can get out of mirrors, and the throttle cable is running directly on top of the mirror insert. Either this or go back to stock bars which are, to me, more comfortable? 3 - Phone mount 4 - The exhaust is LOUD. I was told I could get a db killer for the exhaust but I don't know enough about it to know if I can just add it, or if it'll need a retune after, but I'd like to be able to use a bluetooth headset, and I don't think I'll be able to hear anything with it the way it is right now. Any tips or information would be greatly appreciated.

sunblock Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Have you tried it on wet yet? Does the after-market fender spray your back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunblock Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Yes, he is indeed asking about the tail tidy and its ability to shield you from water and grime that the wheel picks up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fzzz Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Would you happen to have the stock handle bar laying around? I'd be interested in buying if you do. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
