    Front Sprocket Replacement - Need New Lock Washer?

    I finally took the plunge and bought a new front sprocket. I looked at the service manual and noted that it says to replace the lock washer, which looks to me like a washer with tabs that get bent up around the nut to prevent it from loosening. Seems like I have read stories of people's front...

    Side Pod Mod

    I have red 2007, and I was never crazy about the black side pods with the kind of cheesy decal on top. I always coveted the full red side pods from 2006 models, but they cost in the neighborhood of $60 each, so I resisted the temptation to buy them new. A while back, someone was parting out a...

    Wanted: Stock FZ6 (or FZ6R) License Plate Light

    edit: My new friend 99vengeur has taken care of my request. Thanks Robert, you're a great guy! (For posterity's sake, the original request is retained below.) If you have a spare stock license plate light left over from when you installed your fender eliminator, I’d be interested in...

    GenMar Handlebar Risers

    Has anybody installed the GenMar handlebar risers (pictured below) that give you a 1" rise and 1-3/8" pull back? A lot of people have the SW-Motech risers: To my eye, they look kind of funky the way they seem to "bend" back (no offense to anyone that has them.) I kind of like...

    Swing-Arm Stickers

    I'm sure that many will agree that the stickers on the swing-arm provide useful information, but that Yamaha should have found a less conspicuous location to stick them. There have been several discussion regarding their removal, and I've been planning to remove mine. As was suggested in one...

    Painted Rear Hugger

    I thought you might be interested in my experience getting a color-matched rear hugger for my ‘07 Red FZ6. Right after I got my FZ6 and found this forum, I started seeing pictures of bikes with painted rear huggers, and eventually found some sources, for example this TCP. I really liked...
