Not that anyone cares but I am back. Sold my 2006 FZ6 early 2022, and I actually did miss it so I upgraded to a 37k mile 2008 FZ6 for $1100USD ($1400CAD). I couldn't resist getting another.
Anyways, due to very limited stock on a lot of tires I'm looking at right now, I might need to run a...
I am thinking I am not going to bother taking the cams out and all the hassle that goes with swapping the shim. Did the first valve check late, 47,000km on the dash. (40k first check)
I have no tight valves (intake 0.13-0.20, ex 0.23-0.30), infact, I have a couple exhaust valves that are around...
Had my bike apart some and have a left over brown hose plug. Want to avoid a big vacuum leak, and thinking I'm missing a hose that should be plugged, that isn't a vent (that shouldn't be plugged...).
Basically can anyone think of any other hoses, besides the 4 sync hoses that should have a...
There are no obvious tabs to unclip the connector like you would see on most standard wiring harness connectors.
Does anyone know where to press or whatever to get this apart?
Trying to remove the top triple clamp and I guess this has to go along with it.
Got a box of random maybe fz6 related parts from the PO of my bike. Any idea what this is? LED bulb related relay and??
If anyone recognizes these things let me know!
thanks
Went for a big ride today and nearing home I heard a crazy banging noise on take off. Was scared I torched my motor as it sounded like rod knock. Upon returning home I found what seems to be an unusual amount of play in my center stand. I remember it being more stable than this... I believe it...
Took it back apart and checked all my connections on the thing connected to the battery box and connectors I took off. Everything looked fine. Have no idea what went wrong after reassembling it. Is the fuel pump priming each time any clue to anyone what could be going on? Battery is fully charged.
Back again cluttering the forum with my random questions as I work on my bike. I'm pretty sure my cam chain tensioner is shot because the cam chain is very loud, doesn't sound pleasant, and I see it's pretty common. Just a lot of clicky clacking noise coming from that side in general.
What is...
Okay here's the dilemma, put a ebay single headlight on my FZ6 because I crashed and broke the fairing.
Obviously the fairing model has two headlight connectors, for the single H4 bulb in it now, I'm using the old highbeam connector, so in order for the light be on I need to leave the highbeam...
Looking for creative ideas for the right side (looking at bike head-on) mount, are people mostly taking the triple off and tapping that hole where the outline is? I'm not opposed to this but it's a decent amount of work so I wanted to see first. Anything else I can do that works? I mounted it...
I am quite tall and the bike was lowered. What is the technique used to lower the rear suspension? I want to remove whatever it is. Am I likely to need an original part, or is the lowering link setup just an add-on that can be removed and put back to stock without buying some original part that...
