Third Yamaha, second parallel twin.

Figured I should sign up for a FZ 07 forum now that I picked one up.  Picked up a 2016 silver/blue FZ 07 this week and promptly started making changes.  Already installed a TST fender eliminator and "flush mount" front turn signals, Custom LEDs integrated tail light, National Cycle windscreen, and Yoshimura exhaust. 
 
I also have a 2009 FZ6, 2015 R3, and 2007 Buell Blast.  
 
I have not had a chance to put many miles on the FZ 07 yet but did manage about 30 miles today before the weather turned sour.  I look forward to getting a chance to start putting miles on it.

Welcome! Sounds like quite the stable....I can only afford 1 and the FZ is it for me these days.

I will have to work on the pictures. For some reason they come through clear on my phone, but when I transfer them to my computer or directly to photobucket they get blurry.
 
I am from the Detroit/Metro area, but I do my best to take my riding away from the city.

Not the most recent, but the other pictures I have are grainy once transferred to the computer.

Is the angle adjustable on that tst eliminator?
I went with the fixed position version.  I didnt see the need to be able to adjust it.  If I really do need to tweak it I could probably just bend it a little.

Welcome aboard! How do you like the torque compared to the other bikes you have?

I have not had a chance to really check it out due to work and weather, but with some luck I will be out in the next couple days. So far it has a lot more low end grunt feel to it compared to the others. I think top end wise the FZ6-S2 is going to feel a lot stronger though. New bike break in always sucks.
 
 

Wow, that collection! Jealous 
Welcome!
 
 
Thank you. I hope to be trimming it down by one shortly. The Blast will hopefully find a new home soon. Chances are the FZ6-S2 will remain in the stable as my highway bike.
 
 
 

Welcome!
 
 
How do you like the Shark Raw helmet? I have one and its great up to about 60mph. More than that and it seems to catch the wind a lot.

@mitdr774 yeah at high speeds without a decent windshield it can be a little rough. And even when tightening down the straps for the goggles they still like to try to fly away from my face when doing head checks. But I love it and have adapted to it :)
