    Headlights

    presuming you are talking about a faired version. There will be an adaptor on the base of the bulbs that you reuse to make it fit the plug

    Question Which side of the K&N air filter?

    I agree with this, i have one because i liked the idea of a reusable serviceable filter, an the amount of cleaner i have will outlast the fizzer, but will not buy a new one for the next bike

    Work to do after 28k without maintenance?

    so a bike that old if it has never had maintenance, i would do the fluids, brake lines possibly have some moisture, the cooling system because why not it is easy to do, and of course the oil and filter

    My 05 will not rev past 2000 RPMs and will shut off like the kill switch was hit

    so do you thing the gear indicator is just a coincidence? Have you tried adding revs from the throttle body and not the grip, disconnect the cables so the grip doesn't move. the video sounds like a cut off switch and with that all being in the same piece it is an easy thing to isolate

    High Mileage

    This is a great response, my last car got to a stage where a new set of tyres were worth more than the car and then it w as a hard call until it stared to misfire at which stage you really have to go repair little niggles or make a big investment in a replacement. Many Fizzers will be getting to...

    Ordering new seat from Spain or USA

    not as clean but an airhawk seat makes a world of difference, also it makes you that much higher that helps your legs (well atleast mine) on longer rides

    2004 Fz6 clutch

    if it is really stiff your clutch cable may be going, try lubing it and if unknown age it is a consumable you may as well replace
