What a terrible street bike this would be. I got tired of my inline-4 600cc because the thing is dead until 8k rpm and by that time you're screaming around on the street. This is just that situation multiplied. Fun light weight track bike though where you can just rip around at 15k rippems.

Yes it is an unfortunate reality of direct injection... it wasn't an issue for so long with everything being port injected, people are surprised when it becomes time to have the service done because your fancy vehicle is running so rough. Can easily be a $1k job. And will need to be done...

I saw this insane expensive looking Harley side "car" at the forks a few years ago. It looked like a small space shuttle capsule. Super fancy looking thing with two seats, that had a bubble front shield where the whole front folded up to get out. With the front folded down, it was fully closed...
First valve clearance check for this FZ6... 7,000km late (first check is at 40,000km) but I was putting it off. Took about 2 1/2 hours start to finish, not bad. Just a bunch of things to remove to get to the valve cover since the motor is a bit tucked away between the frame. Manual calls to...
