2005 FZ6 with 34,000 Miles Dead Hi all, I have a 2005 FZ6 with 34,000 on it. I love the bike and have never had a bit of trouble with it until a couple of days ago. I really get lost with electrical issues and hope you can help. A couple of days ago I went to start the bike. I turned the...

I have this belly pan thats been sitting forever because I don't have the bracket. I finally want to paint my bike and hopefully the belly pan too and start using it. Anyone possibly have one they want to sell?

Couple of friends are organizing a small ride this weekend, either to Bear Mnt, Palisades toward NJ, or Whiteplains/Yonkers. Will start morning. Anyone in the area free to join or voice an opinion :rockon:.

So I had my first accident yesterday (hopefully the last) on my 09 FZ6. I was in Philly and a car slowed down and put on their left turn signal so, like I had done a million times before, chose to move right and go around them while waiting for them to turn. Well, it turns out they decided they...

Yesterday I had a strange occurance on the way home. I made a stop on the way and as I was leaving, my bike would not start. The engine was relatively hot (+/-208F) and everything else was normal. The starter rolled slowly but would not start the engine. I tried roll starting it without...

Greetings, My cycle has been having a problem I believe to be electrical. When I turn the key in the ignition to the on position, only the neutral light comes on, the fuel pump doesn't prime or make the usual 3-4 sec whirring noise. When I try to start it, the engine cranks but doesn't start...

No spark but everything else is fine? (Solved) Hi, As I mentioned in my intro I lost the use of my right arm in 2006 in a bike accident but I've recently bought an FZS Fazer 600. I had to convert all the controls to the left which with help from NABD I was able to afford the thumb brake...

Hi. I have a problem with my Fazer 600 S2 SA. After warm up to 86 C the idle revs start jumping up (NOT DOWN) about 150 RPM. If I give high revs I observe the same unstable jumping up about 150 RPM even on 6000. Video: https://youtu.be/ZUGRw3ivPrA This may, or may not be connected with me...

So i just got my 2007 fz6 saturday. Im loving this bike but am already wanting to upgrade it and mod it. So im asking is where should i start? Should i go for looks or performance and where? So much i can do to it i just dont know where to start. I also dont want to spend a arm and leg to start...

All, [Old thread: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-general-discussion/55498-trouble-starting.html] Had some trouble starting the bike over the past few weeks. On two separate occasions I was nearly stranded at work when the bike would not start. At least not initially. The first time...

How's it going guys. I would just like to start off by saying I'm no mechanic, but have worked on several bikes before, but since day one this bike has always kicked my ass for some reason lol. Basically I put my new cr high rise bars on a set of risers with set back, 1" x 1 1/4" respectively...

My 2006 FZ6 (FZS6V) has learned a new trick: Bought it used in 2011 with ~9K kms on it. I've put ~30K kms on it since. Regular maintenance by myself and local shops. New plugs in Q2 2012, new battery in Q2 of 2014. Until recently, no issues with the bike. Two Wednesdays ago, leaving work...

My bike is acting funny, I was riding down the road and it lost power, not complete shutdown but the gas seemed to not work it and would not go above 2000 rpms I lowered the gear down to 1st and it still wouldn't go anywhere just slowed to a stop. lowering the gears did nothing.... Then it cut...
