Any takers? Lookin' to sell sometime soon, if possible =)

2006 Yamaha FZ6 - Shift Red - $3900 (Clean) 2006 Yamaha FZ6 - Shift Red (the sun seems to make it look almost orange, when in fact, it's a pretty deep red). 14k miles, entirely highway / commuter miles. Manual and Yamaha toolkit are included. Brand new front tire available as well...

The SV650 is a bike I was most definitely considering, but honestly, I'm more aggressively going after my friend's 06 R6 (Raven). He's going to let it go for $5k with 300 miles, never dropped, always garaged, 1st and only owner. As for the advice part of it, hehe, very true.. I guess I...

Re: TW + Feedback: 2006 FZ6 (Shift Red) - Bay Area, CA Any feedback at all? *shrug*

Hey there, I just posted this up on the For Sale forum here. Check it out. I'm pretty flexible on pricing, though there is a minimum target amount, of course.. =) http://www.600riders.com/forum/bikes-parts-sale/18569-tw-feedback-2006-fz6-shift-red.html

TW + Feedback: 2006 FZ6 (Shift Red) - Bay Area, CA This was a For Sale post I recently submitted on craigslist, and I wanted to get some feedback from you fine folks about the price. Given everything below, is $4400 (obo) a reasonable price to ask? Any feedback would be very much appreciated...

Thanks for all the suggestions guys... the WD-40 worked. Given the stiffness of the starter button and how it seemed like the plastic was going to break, it almost felt like a clip or spring might have broken inside. Miraculously, and unbelievably, after a few hours, the start button went...

Excellent.. I'll be sure to update after I get it done. Either tomorrow... or if not, Monday. :thumbup:

ahh.. perhaps I'll try the WD40 first. Thanks for the quick reply and the heads up. Hopefully it'll be as easy as that for the starter button. It almost feels like something broke in there.. it looks like it's halfway already pushed in and very stiff. Was that the same for you?

man, just encountered that problem tonight. Starter button feels very stiff with no "click." Thanks for the good advice guys. I'll check up on that next chance I get. I may just take it apart first before using the WD-40. Without having done any research yet... anyone know how much that...

I'm currently using the Frank Thomas Cargo Endurance tank bag. It seems to fit very well and is very comfortable to lean on during the longer rides. Been using it for about 2 weeks with no complaints at all! http://www.cyclegear.com/spgm.cfm?item=FTL_CAR006 Looks like it's still on...

Hello, I was wondering if anyone out there knew the answer to this question. I've actually done some research online and even called several Yamaha dealers. In my online search, I found an informal chart of wheels compatible between the R6(s) and FZ6... both from varying years. The results...

Very true... although I never thought 70mph would be considered too fast for empty night riding. I guess there's a rude awakening for everything. Thank goodness the cost was only my wheels and tires... and not me. Yeesh. Hehe, thanks for the advice man.

you rock man.. thanks for the input. When I get off work today, I'll check various boards and links you guys have provided. My neck is feeling a little sore... probably from the stress of the landing impact and the strain from straightening out from the wobbles.

The funny thing is.. when I ride normally on the streets, I practice hard / sudden swerving using various objects I see on the ground for reference. I practice these usually at 30-40mph. Given the limited visibility at midnight (even with high-beams on!) and it being 70mph, I'm not sure...

Thank you all for the support. It's very reassuring hearing it come from a community of people who understand how it is out there. Yes, it was intense when my bike landed and began the speed wobble. Should I be concerned with salvage yards having potentially (unnoticeably) bent rims?

Thank you so much for the help. Both places are definitely driving distance from me, so this is a good sign of hope. Do you know if those prices are considered decent? I was looking around online with part #'s and couldn't find any prices. I was thinking about calling around to various...

Hello, I don't post often but have been lurking ever since I got my FZ6 in October. I was wondering if there was anyone here who can help me out... Tonight, at about 12:30am, I was riding up the 880N in Alameda when I suddenly saw a giant rock sitting in front of me... coming fast. I was...
