From a style and code neatness standpoint, might I suggest putting your right talons in an array and your left talons in another? Then you can set an entire side's speeds with a for loop like so:

for (int i = 0; i < left.length; i++)
{
   left[i].set(1);
}

or now with the roboRIO (Java SE 8), with a for each loop...

for (Talon t : left)
   t.set(1);

then put it in another method for easy use...

public void setLeft(int speed)
{
   for (Talon t : left)
      t.set(speed);
}

or even a more general method for less code...

public void setSpeed(Talon[] tarray, int Speed)
{
   for (Talon t : tarray)
      t.set(speed);
}

and finally, work in the inversion...

public void setSpeed(Talon[] tarray, int Speed)
{
   for (Talon t : tarray)
   {
      if (t.equals(talon1) || t.equals(talon5) || t.equals(talon6))
         t.set(-speed);
      else
         t.set(speed);
   }
}

We handle setting our drivetrain speed in a similar fashion.
